    If I run an Oldblood on carnosaur with starpriest and I use the star priests "Serpent Staff" ability will that double carnosaur jaw attack damage from 3 to 6?

    Bear in mind that when you get the 'pinned down' bonus by hitting both of your claw attacks while fighting monsters, you'll get the double damage on a 4+ rather than a 6. A truly stupid amount of damage output if you roll well!

    I have to agree, last week I had my Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur and used my Skink Starpriest on the Carnosaur's jaws. He instantly killed two Ogre heroes in one battle and my opponent was very shocked by the results. Nom nom nom ^www^

    Yes, and there ara a couple of great combos to make ir even beter to use like the ones I will mention below

    Actually, I think you might be mistaken there as the +2 for the pinned down ability is a modifier of the to hit roll and the serpent staff requires a 6 to wound.

    But worry not after much encouragment from @Crowsfoot to paint my carnosaur... I started painting him and as a result I came uo with the following 1.5k pts list, not aure how competitive is but I think it sinergises well;

    2 x Oldblood on Carnosaur
    - reckless + Relic Blade
    - Relic Blade
    1 x Starpriest
    1x Astrolith bearer
    1x Loremaster of hoeth
    3 x (10) Skinks
    1 x (3) Ripperdactils
    Shafowstrike host

    I like this combo because
    1. Use thecommand ability to give both carnosaurs +2 Attacks with the jaws
    2. Give double damage to oneof them
    3. Plant the standard to rerrol hits and get -+1 to cast
    4. Cast hand of glory in one of them (rerroll to hit and to wound) Note: this one can be changed fo a beast battlr mage wich gives a + 1 to wound making the double damage twice as likekLy
    - big battleshock isue
    -shadowstrike to hold enemies and bouble rap

    What do you thibk

    I like the thinking behind this list. It could definitely be tried ( will do at some point, Arrg so little time, so many lists to be tried )
