True. I feel like I could change my mind if the battalions were switched. If the coalesced thunderquake or shadowstrike was starborn, I’d be more on board, but the battalions are just so bad
€45 in metric units
60$ same as all big terrain
even though there is a lot of rumor going on .... LOL.... i'm so happy to preorder today. But this morning came a question through my mind. is it impossible that starborn work together with coalesced? i mean i should not work because of the lore so far. but has anybody else thought of that?
Why is it more than the stupid OBR shrine
I mean it is, but they need to milk every damn dollar they can?because it is much better (looking and playing)
what can I say, people are silly and dramaqueens... In a week we'l have a F.A.Q. and they'l be moaning again until 2 days later @LizardWizard shows another list and we're over the moon again.
well that's extremely boring and sucks... I would've hoped it'd at least give the priest/wizard garisonning it a +1 to casting or something... This and summoning becoming completly luck-based are by far the biggest two dissapointments in this release.
issue is that stalling is nearly never fun for the opponent (in nearly very game and sport).. In general, control playstyles have this nasty habit of being increadibly annoying to play against. And it's difficult as hell to balance. I can understand why they moved away from it.Fair, but u got other lizards for that
I like going in with crappy units and stall the opponent for.points
I think the basti might end up surprising you. There's some rather nice potential for defensive synergy. Stick it near an astrolith, put a bound emerald swarm near him and you now have a 1+ save, 6+ ward save, healing D3 wounds/turn. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if we still have a healing spell in our spell lore for some extra healing. Basicly with the right set-up I wouldn't be surprised if it can only be killed by someone oneshotting it.I feel so smug now (played Rippers only once, I am a Terradon fan).
The other thing I noticed is that we suddenly can use all those command points we have. Many of our heroes previously had either a crap commsnd ability or none at all.
So far I see several play styles possible, we are definitely no one trick pony.
Saurus, Skinks, Monsters, magic. I already have a number of lists in mind that I can try with the stuff I have. Probably not like those @LizardWizard will come up with, but sounds like we can actually hit things now in different ways.
Things I am sad about:
- summoning reduced to (relatively weak it seems so far) utility.
- Basti not as tanky anymore
- Skinks: wary fighters gone and Boltspitters+Shields doesn't exist anymore.
But let's not forget:
- Skink chiefs are back!
- we did not lose models!
Lol, that has to be a mistake, a hilarious one and they might leave it in. But that can't have been entirely intended
well that's dissapointing.. I really wish they'd stop putting these kind of limitations in. It feels lame for various "rules of one" to consistently screw over interesting lists...
That is fun. I like it!
and if he is on a sunfire then he can shoot twice fore a lot of mortals
only engine of the gods or bastiladons can shoot twice, and I think the bow is better imo
