a single damage roll is a great idea, bound to quicken the game a lot, but really unworkable in d6 environment... odds for s3 average trooper vary from 2/3 to wound t2 swarm/halfling to 1/18 against dragon with t6 and 3+save... a d20 system would make this probably work, but this is too much a revol...

by Khaines blood, take something with "no armor save" written... GoP and Blade of Ruin are near mandatory against Dwarves...

Hmmm, my take at new units? First and foremost, WE heroine! and perhaps even lord... other than that my dream unit (supersnipers) was answered by Mengil and co. as for the hth units we've got already foot knights (BG+executioners) helldrake would be too big to scale (they carry small forts on their ...

Guys, why don't you add to the list one of the Dwarven Ancestor Gods? I don't think even Kroak could cast spell vs. Valaya... And as for Grimnir... father of all Slayers... As for the Aenarion, he took on 4 Greater Demons (all gods) and survived... thats about 2,5k pts. T3 on Elves reflects their re...

Best fragments were IMHO "execute order 66" and Sidious going medieval on 4 Jedi Masters... I just can't stop to admire strategical genius of Sidious, no Jedi (except Yoda who felt disturbance in the force, and Kenobi who just got lucky) is capable of surviving blaster volley in the back... Also it ...

If you are good enough to kill 3+ witch elves charging you, you are chosen by Khaine... try to simulate it with every rank and file model on foot (COK with his ridiculous armor save is out)

Big meanies as they are, Ogres aren't so brave...panic is difficult for them, and break tests are usually fatal if they are forced to do them... remember that they flee 2d6 " as ordinary infantry, which means it's common for them to be caught and destroyed.

By Khaine, Cold One's real asset is Fear it instills in enemies. Most enemies must test to charge a unit of COK, and do I have to remember you dreaded Fear-outnumber combo?
