Re: Dogs Of War Questions and Remarks

Alarantalara, yes that is exactly the source I was looking at. It’s not the best FAQ answer in the world since it just name drops a rule maker but it at least shows the question has been taken seriously. Tony, for what it’s worth, I really don’t have a strong opinion either way and I definitely beli...

Dogs Of War Questions and Remarks

I hope everyone's weekend is going well. I am extremely lucky to be able to have many of the Regiments of Renown and recently played a battle with them. During the battle I had the chance to start getting a better feel for this army (only my 3rd game with them ever) and a few questions came up. In l...

Re: The Last Ride of Lord Ruthven (Army List Post)

Re: Question Regarding High Elf Lion Guard Honour

There very well may be a way to improve on the list but this was what it was: HEROES (1-3) COMMANDER - (Intrigue at Court). Honour: Pure of Heart, Talisman: Talisman of Protection, Heavy Armour, Hand Weapon & Shield. 86 Points. COMMANDER - (This is the Battle Standard Bearer, Intrigue at Court)....

Re: Question Regarding High Elf Lion Guard Honour

I think you're probably absolutely right that there could be some ways to make things more cost effective. The original idea was getting White Lions onto the roster in a 1500 point game, with a pair of Repeater Bolt Throwers occupying the sole Rare slot and with a Noble & BsB already on the rost...

Thank you both very much for taking the time to read that and to weigh in. I am going to allow the High Elf Mage to take the Honour, and therefore become Stubborn and equip the cloak, but he will be unable to cast spells since the cloak is a form of armour. He will still generate Power and Dispel di...

Question Regarding High Elf Lion Guard Honour

I hope you are all doing well. I have another dumb question for you guys where I think I know the answer but cannot feel good giving a definitive ruling and cannot find anything explicitly answering it on the 6th Ed App's FAQ or in a quick google. Can a High Elf Mage take the Honour Lion Guard and c...

Re: Army elitism

I’m curious what the 5 models in a Chaos list that add up to 2,000 points by themselves are. It would be really wild to see that fielded against the 986 model O&G list! Crazy that both can add up to the same total since it looks like most other armies need 20 or so models to hit 2000.

Re: The Old World Subforum

After reading your thought process on why the site has what it has, I tried to apply your reasoning when voting.

Re: Beastmen advice

My kneejerk reaction from a sweaty meta competitive standpoint is to figure out a way to get multiple wounds at a time on to those Large Targets. A Dogs of War cannon or two in the Rare slots could achieve this. However, I completely understand that this not only relies on guessing inches and some l...

Re: Chaos Warriors are actually kinda bad....

I completely missed that! I just assumed there was some footnote somewhere stating they occupy an additional Special Slot the way some other units occupy additional slots.

Re: Chaos Warriors are actually kinda bad....

I noticed you guys were saying at the top of this thread that a unit of Chaos Ogres occupies 2 special slots. Where is the rule that states this? I cannot find it in either the Beasts or the Warriors of Chaos Army Books.

Re: Wood Elves 1500pts

I will start off by saying that if these units are fun for you to field, then have at it and make sure fun is your priority. Having said that, I would advise against bringing a Treeman on a 1500pt list. While the cool factor is extremely high, I find in my non expert experience that from a “powergam...
