Re: Alternative minitures-a near and dear subject (some images)

Has anyone found good alternative models for the phoenixes? I think the gw ones are way too big not to mention expensive.

Re: Are you EXCITED about 8th Ed?

I just got my copy of the book and have been reading through it and I agree there are too many dice rolls. It takes too much out of your hands and into those of lady luck.

Re: Have you preordered anything?

All you who ordered online are lucky. I have confirmed that no retail stores outside Europe are getting any collectors editions or gamers editions. The problem was that US retailers have to make orders on Monday and the books were announced on Tuesday so all the books were sold out by the time the r...

Cav takes a major nerf in 8th ed

I haven't been able to find anyone talking about this yet but if this is a repeat thread then just let me know and I'll delete it. The changes in break tests make it so if a unit loses combat but has more ranks that it's opponent it will roll against an unmodifed leadership regardless of how much it...

Painting Faces

Hey guys. I have just purchase a bunch of new units and heroes and I have been trying to find a way to bring my painting to the next level. After looking at my old units and what I have been doing so far, I have figured that I need a better method for painting the faces. Does anyone have a good tuto...

Re: question on DPs attacking a hydra

wow flames i must say that your idea is brilliant. With a champ in d5 it doesn't hurt much when charging anything else and the extra s5 attack at the bm gives a much better chance of killing both. From now on whenever I am fighting a DE player that will be my positioning for my DPs.

Re: How do you guys kill...

eh I finally got around to reading this thread. Well I have seen some good ideas and some not so good ideas. Since these kinds of lists are ones you would see in no-comp tournys I would probably have my stardragon with me since I like my paint job on it. My standard stardragon list I bring has 3 rbt...

Re: Everything Wrong with High Elves.

The main problem I see with the high elf book in comparison to the other 7th books, is that it seems like ours didn't have much thought put into it when writing. If you look at our book compared to the 6th edition, all they did was remove honors, change and remove magic items, move units into the sp...

I think there are a lot of problems with our book compared to others. A few that I think really hurt us is our lack specific tools to counter the new books. Which is natural because those specific threats weren't around when our book was written. However every army since then has had something in it...

Had this come up during a tourny where my mage challenged a champ. It was ruled without hesitation that all other models in the first 3 ranks can attack. They way the ref explained it is that you count the back ranked spears as if they were in the front rank so the corners would be in contact with t...
