Yeah. If they weren't mentioned that often in the books (GHB and Battletomes of other armies) I'd almost say it looks like GW are letting them die.
You might get lucky with some of the rats at least, since they have the Nurgle keyword so might get some use with the new Battletome.
Oh and most weird: Aleguzzlers have one bataillon, and a cool one to boot, but it is impossible to play in matched play....
Yeah it is kinda weird. But so are guards. They are supposed to be one of the sturdiest infantry units in the game but they have just one wound...
Pestilence at least can be combined with the other rats. I'd like to see beastmen (warherd+brayherd) become viable again. Same for Dispossessed...
Well he doesn't have a shield so his save is 1 worse. Which is kinda logical. Until you look at other armies' heroes which have a 3+ save while...
In the Sylvaneth Battletome there is one that has to include 2xLiberators 1xJudicators and a Lord Castellant. I think it is purely open or...
No, I think you should put him between your Guard units for his 5" buff and also for the Guards' +1 save when near heroes. He is quite sturdy with...
A little sneak peek: [ATTACH]
Yeah that sucks. At least you don't have to use those bataillons and in the Sylvaneth case it is a meh bataillon anyway.
It depends on the effect. If the descriptions mentions the unit then you cannot use it if the unit is destroyed (such as the Starpriest in a...
What almost makes me furious though: The way his star observation scrying stuff is described is almost exactly as Slann or Starseers do. So bye...
I see it exactly the other way round. I kinda like Sylvaneth and I am fed up with SCE. But actually ANY other Order army would have been better...
Very good!
The thing about artillery is that it often works long ranged without line of sight. Only the Celestant Prime can do that, the rest can't. But...
Oh they still miss quite a few things I think: - artillery (although the Celestant Prime and the Knight Venator) fill the role a bit - assassins -...
At least the model looks cool. But seriously.... there are other factions in Order...
Some people say worse, some say equal or better. I think it boils down to personal preference. I say they are about as good. They handle a bit...
Ah one more point about water: If the water in your area is "hard" so it has a lot of minerals in it, you might want to use distilled water instead.
Water works for thinning paint for most purposes. If you make the paints really thin (if you want to make your own shades for example) you should...
