Old World Subforum?
Druchii.net perseveres in an age of endless scroll feeds and social media. It remains as an easily searched trove of history and reference and in the past has used its community power to weigh-in on the development of the game (6th ed Druchii revision). Pretty strong heritage! Since TOW was released...

Re: TOW - 800pts
Looks balanced and playable. I feel like the Knights would have dominated at this points value - would consider the Cold Blooded Banner as insurance for that crucial turn to ensure they connect with their charge targets. Any observations? My lists so far have trended for spears and dark riders in co...

Re: Original metal manticore (6th edition army book) base si
Manticore was always on the 50mm base to my knowledge, as were all monsters in 6th edition.
The Dark Pegasus is the one to fit on a 40mm base.

Re: Kickstarter for a new range of 10mm DE
I think it has been designed to mirror the original range/army selection of the Warmaster Dark Elf roster. Similarities are inevitable. There are some definite nods to the GW style. Hard to imagine Dark Elves without a dash of Naggaroth. Looks like the project reached the goal, and a Black Dragon ha...

Kickstarter for a new range of 10mm DE
I thought I would share a recent kickstarter to produce a line of 10mm Dark Elves. The project looks great,and I have decided to back it. m At this point it has reached its initial goal, but still has a little way to go to reach the 'stretch' goals of Black Guard and a Cauldron of Blood. Thought it ...

Re: 2400 pts army for tournament
Looks solid enough as a concept but the list requires some tweaking as I can spot a couple of errors. First off, wizards are only permitted one Arcane item each. Therefore you will have to lose either the Dispel Scroll or Channeling Staff. Cold One Chariots are actually 115 pts from memory, so with ...

Re: 2500 pts back to the table
The goal of the list is to close with the enemy as quickly as possible. The Sorc sits in the Spear block at the back to provide magic buffs/debuffs to the most critical combats. Typically I would use the large Knight block on one flank in an attempt to funnel the opponent's main combat units into th...

2500 pts back to the table
So managed to spend a good portion of lockdown getting a fresh paintjob on the old Druchii army. Now in its third incarnation, and nearly ready to return to the table. Going to arrange a game in the coming weeks, and thinking of taking the following. Pretty excited to give the old 8th book a spin ag...

RAW indicates that it is mutually exclusive. I seem to remember that was mainly in order to not mix poisons and magic items.
At this stage in the game I would go for it, with your group's permission. It isn't like the assassin is a power choice anyway.

6th edition White Dwarf Update
Hello everyone. Maybe a long shot, but I am after the article from White Dwarf which illustrated the army book update for the 6th edition book, way back in 2003. It was an initiative which took off from these very message boards, and fixed a lot of the oversights and missed opportunities from what w...

Thank you for all the responses! Haagrum - Dispel Scroll sounds like a wise suggestion, particularly as my spell defence is somewhat compromised.

Re: Warlocks
Are people thinking that the inclusion of warlocks in our list means that a level 4 is less necessary than before? Of course lord level casters are undoubtedly the most 'powerful' choice, but being able to use the rare slot to contribute to our magic phase frees up lord points for some more quirky, ...

Re: Age of Empires 2 new expansion
According to the developers the AI has been revamped, as has the unit pathfinding abilities. Pop cap has also actually been raised to 1000 - makes for some pretty epic multiplayer matches, especially with the bigger sized maps.

Re: Shade bunker for Sorceress
What lores would you rate for this setup Daeron? Ones with a strong range that can be blasted from a distance with impunity?

Re: Shade bunker for Sorceress
I was conceiving this for a lord level caster, which makes it a bit riskier. Target saturation will definitely be key. Many units and enough shooting to eliminate chaff and secure board control to give the skirmishers free reign of the board. It feels tempting to load it up with tricks like sorceres...

Re: Campaign List 2500
Agreed on the magic overkill. Only so much dice to go around every magic phase - investing that much is bad economics in my opinion. You would be better served removing one of your sorceresses and investing the points in more troops. For the Sorceress and Sacrificial Dagger you can get a decent unit...
