AoS NEW *rumor*

You know, you're passing over one interesting option. Could be some kind of Ancient Ones device for a new Seraphon toy...? (dreams and wishes, I know...)

 

Although through play, a new faction has taken my number one most hated spot. Ossiarchs. They just aren’t fun to play against

 

and this surprises no one. throw them on the pile of armies that lizards hate.

 

Like BCR Mournfang lists?

 

I hate them too... but for different reasons (hideously ugly models... imho).

 

? noooo not shur why you would think that we do very well against mornfangs

 

I must admit that seeing them on the tabletop painted to a good level (without painting all that detail basically) they look much better than the official photos. Still, the concept is so wrong I cannot but dislike.

 

Quite the opposite. Having been on the receiving end of a Mournfang list multiple times since AoS came out, my only advice when facing them is "Don't." It's a list whose sole purpose is to table your opponent, starting with a Turn 1 charge from across the table, and it's not a list that anyone in my local gaming group, a fairly competitive one at that, considers to be fun to play against.

 

the people on the FB post for the rumour engine seem to be split, half going for seraphon cuz it's a stone & looks celestial-ish or like a tool for divining, the other half going for KO cuz it looks like a mechanical tool.

 

hmm its attached to a domed serfice on the left maybe a helmet?

 

really? tabled by mornfang 2 attacks 4s to hit mornfang? they do 4-9 damage against skinks per 2 they can't even kill a 10 man screen.

 

Mournfang supported by thundertusk and warscroll battalion. They may not be the horde killers that bullgors are, but when mortal wounds leading up to and including the charge are in play in an army that's granted the ability to run and charge in the same turn with bonuses to both, 10-man screens aren't even a road bump.

 

well weren't they definitely are now that the thundertusk got nerfed.

 

the thunder tusk originally did 6 damage on a 2+ to roll now he rolls 12 dice and dose a mortal on a 6+ he gets +1 if the unit has 10 models he gets +2 if they have 20 models. so he is a 1 wound beter on average for 20+ models and worse every where else. in exchange he got 2 bad prayers on a 4+ and a good one on a 4+ so meh and mount traits that are keyed for melee which he never wan'ts to do.

 

stornhorn is way better, and with the allegiance buffs BCR are a threat. I know we disagree, I have no desire to rehash the discussion, but unless you are playing them regularly... you really don't know just how much they tear through your shit.

 

once every 2 weeks sometimes more. i have 2 ogar players at my store one bcr and one gutbusters i have never lost to BCR and the guy who playes them is really bummed out by the complete disregard GW showed his faction and is shifting to gut busters.
stone horn is awesome thou

 

I’ve never actually seen BCR on the table. How do they play and how well do they do in combat?

 

if they play yhetees they can be very triky the pile in's and movment is a lot to keep track of and they do ok damage for their points. if they go cav they can hit hard sometimes but the big bases don'tlet them get enough models into combat. stone horns can live throu a massive amount of punishment or hit like a train depending on the artifact they take.

 

stornhorns can do both now if they take the right artifact mount trait combo
