And you can insta win vs skaven

[Veldemere]

Sadly not as that has never happened for me!!

Although I am thinking there might be some O&G armies there so there is a chance I wouldn't be completely hosed

[Undead Dan]

Take the Ogres just to buy an 11-ogre Bull unit to garrison buildings to piss people off!

Buddy, they will be using the new book, which with some fo the toys would make a bloody pulp of Ogres..

4 Pump wagons, 2 Mangler Squigs, 2 Doom divers & 6 Bolt Throwers will ruin you...

New House rules added to first post..

Some interesting rules..

1) No more than 12 models in a building (or 3 MI)

2) No magic charges if you have reformed or swift reformed...(Stops VC some but TK, totally screwed)

And a few others, mainly about character mocing abuse..

12 models is a bit of a pain , 15 would have been better IMO but at least this puts pay to the good old Horror horde hiding in the building abuse....

12 models in a building seems like a very strange number to me. There's no scenarios at south coast though is there?

[Tom Hale]

12 models is rediculous, far too far the other way. you will just see shooting units in them now. also dosn't affect lizardmen at all really. solo etherial slann in a building bs

12 models in a building seems like a very strange number to me.

Agreed, but then again the whole event is becoming stranger and stranger..

For instance the 'No Charge after Reforms' rule, whilst nerfing VC, TOTALLY screws TK, as though they were not fecked enough as it was..Wy make a rule that stops the weakest army from attending...

All Battle Line


I would ike to point out that big units can still assault buildings but just cant occupy them..

[Veldemere]

woah woah woah, lets not hit everything with hatred 12 in a building is odd, do you think people will take smaller units of shooters? The shooting cap seemed to go some of the way towards that, but now also reducing the unit size? I think it is a good idea to stop camping / points denial cheese.

True that it doesn't stop the slann hiding trick, but we didn't really expect anything to take the lizzies down a peg did we? 

Yep the TK are nerfed, but it needed the rule to take the TK down a peg, do you think there would be many TK players?

I take it on the 2nd sentence you meant VC?

At a tournie that large there will always be a few die hard TK players, but not now..
It probably does not matter that much as they are sooo bad in 8th it's untrue..

And from the latest rumour I heard, a guy in the know was asked, TK, improved or much improved?
Answer. just improved...

So we shall see, but it does not sound promising..

As for the issue of the 12, I suppose the number was made to +
= 4 Monstrous infantry..
