Re: Square Based: High Elves

Unfortunately many warhammer players don't use enough terrain, so I can see rules like open order not being utilised to their full potential. However I hope that more players start using more terrain, because it makes the game interesting and the current rules are very nice for moving through terra...

Re: A new painting blog - OK Army project: More Ironguts

Lovely work on these! I really love seeing how well the cursed city ogres (that's where they're from right?) fit in too.

Re: Fitzlock's High Elves - The Glittering Host of Avelorn

Hey, great to see you getting back into it again. I'm really loving the chance to fix up and repair some of my older minis, but also paint the miniatures I'd never gotten around to painting years ago. Your miniatures are definitely going to be something I come back to, to inspire me to continue. Gre...

Re: Warhammer ToW

I'll be jumping in as well. With the changes to base sizes, rather than rebase everything, I think I might try 3D printing an entire army. I read about the infantry bases being consolidated into 25 x 25 mm, but I just noticed that cavalry are 30 x 60 mm. It makes sense from the hobby perspective, I...

Re: Warhammer ToW

Looking forward to it for sure!
I've been slowly repainting and rebasing my old elves to the new system. Pretty excited about how much improvement I've made since my first elf army back in the day as well!

Re: Hands Across The Annulii - Avelorn and Chrace

This is a really amazing project. I love it, and have a similar love the Dragon Rampant rules for their versatility.

Have you made any progress? I'd love to see it painted, or in game.

Re: Best Elite in 8th??

I'm currently running 2 units of 14-16 white lions with a bsb in one and a prince in the other. They're quite brutal. And I've been using the lore of beasts with them (sig spell taking them to S7 and T4) I've taken on block units and won easily. I've whittled down pheonix gaurd with them too.

Re: army updates now up (Erratas, Ammendments, FAQs)

I don't know if this a translation difference or not but my version of the rule says that "....High elves armed with spears fight with 1 extra rank to the front only. This means they normally fight in 3 ranks, or 2 in a turn they charge." The FAQ then tells you to ignore that last sentence...

Re: army updates now up (Erratas, Ammendments, FAQs)

Hey, has anyone else picked up on the fact that spearelves only get to fight in 1 additional rank rather than 2 now?
