    I have bought some of the new Troggoths aswell, trying to get into painting once again. I Kinda want to have a granite looking color scheme for my rock troggoths, do any of you have some advice for paints I could use?

    What sort of granite, grey?

    Go a mid tone for the base, nuln oil wash then drybrush different greys in random places then stipple pallid wych flesh onto the scales

    I love the skuttle cauldron 50 points for +1 cast/unbind, access to all the grit spells and deals d3 MW’s - happy days, but I also want to take the giant mushroom of doom, can’t work out in my head if it’s worth the 80 points though! (Plant it and deal 1 mortal wounds on a 5+ to anyone within 8” (so a 16” spread which is pretty good)
    Thinking my trolls can hold units pretty well + the shroom to ebb those tougher or horde units.
    Do you guys rate it at all ?

    Just started the skin tones on my troggs, ended up classic blue/grey colours.

    Also figured out my Troggoth hag conversion:
    Arachnorok lower half - bulbous troll top - with all the river troll trimmings.

    Base colours done for skin tones, just waiting on wash to dry then can highlight and add details.

    Sadly I’m on a 4 day stint at work followed by a funeral...so painting will have to resume a week from now.

    Looking forward to seeing your finished products @Crowsfoot

    Nice Trolls!

    I can see plenty of Dwarf masonry as well - I’m sure GW must be cooking up some sort of Dispossessed vs Gloomspite rivalry that’ll come out once all this Chaos nonsense has subsided.

    Question, I don’t actually know the direct answer (nor can I find one scrounging the Internet)

    Can you stack -1 to hit etc modifiers?

    For example;
    Fellwater troggs have a -1 to hit ability.
    A webslinger shaman can cast a spell for a -1 to hit to all enemies within 12”
    Do the two combine for a -2 to hit?

    Personal thought - they should but I do feel it is a tad OP.

    Just want to be clear :) thanks!

    I think you can't go above -2 not sure @LizardWizard @Killer Angel @Aginor will have the answer.

    I'm still waiting for those bloody mushrooms, getting pissed off now .......

    I ordered some from bits of war, Kromlech toadstools and forest mushrooms, I can make some from greenstuff but I need loads so thought to save time.

    Coming from Poland but I ordered them 3 weeks ago now.

    Well, if you play nurgle you can stack Cloud of Flies and Plague of Flies, protecting a unit of 20+ plaguebearers with a -4 vs shooting and a -2 vs melee… :vomit:

    You can add as many modifiers as you have available. However, a 6 to hit or wound is always a success regardless of any modifiers. So there is definitely a diminished return.

    As far as I know there is no limit to stacking modifiers.
    However there are diminishing returns.

    You could buff a save or hit to 1+, but since a roll of 1 is always a fail that would only help you if your opponent has an opposing buff in place. (So for example you still want to get a 2+ save despite rend)

    EDIT: sniped. :D
