Bring back the Skinks on Horned Ones!
Sign me up! I got seriously down on my saurus game wise but have come back around. They are what made me fall in love with the army in the first...
I play with them. Tetto and Gor Rok most but recently took Kroak out for a ride and find him very well balanced for his cost. Hopefully Nakai...
Agreed with the other two posters. Both types fulfill very different roles. Javelins are better for traditional flanker jobs (redirecting,...
Skink Cohort versus WS3, T3, 5+ infantry: NP = 3/6*3/6*4/6 = 1/6 P = 2/6*3/6*4/6 + 1/6*4/6 = 2/9 For a 33% increase in value. Base cost = 5 + 2...
Gives our Saurus an escape in case we lose and fail break. Hmmm. Swarm takes a few Squish wounds but then holds. I guess it would depend if you...
Assumed Inner Circle knights that are locked in combat with a block of sword saurus (16 attacks instead of 21). Knights are 3 ranks of 5 and the...
I didn't see anything on the Swarms page of the Hymnal. Although I have missed tidbits buried in other sections before. Swarms versus...
Because swarms don't lose their attacks until the entire base is destroyed it got me thinking: could it be useful to have a jungle swarm just to...
Chicken is 4 attacks unless a 4 was the highest WoM die in the HE player's turn in which case it gets +1 attack (which is awesome because you...
I pretty much exclusively play against my buddy with his HE. I've found my Oldblood on Cold One does well enough. Great Weapon, Armor of...
It might be difficult because the FLBs are meant to be held in an elevated fashion but IIRC the arms for Javelins and for FLBs are separate so...
Funny enough this also makes the "steady and sure" combat infantry even more random. 5 wide front rank (no champ) has a standard deviation of 2.5...
Yup where I surrender 2 TG supporting attacks for 1 Slann attack. Also if you run 5 wide (like I do) you can't put any of your characters except...
This is something that gets overlooked and dovetails with Sleb's early, mid, late game comment well. If you're playing with an agressive combat...
The thing that really burns my butt about the Elf ASF is that it is a relic of a previous edition that was left in because if it were removed...
a) false, that flexibility comes at such a steep price that it limits the rest of the army b) true, magic has been hamstrung by winds of magic c)...
I think that this, like the whole Saurus problem to begin with, is due to rules changes between 7th and 8th and the 8th edition book not really...
Ahem... White Lions also hit in 3 ranks and have +2 AS against shooting. Sure 13 saves at 4+ they're going to fail a lot but short of cannons and...
