Re: Swedish Comp Skycutter Flying Monster?

Hi!

No skycutter does not count as monsters, the insciption "mounted great eagles" only refers to eagles with lord/hero on top, the chariot does not add in.

Re: walk between worlds & a unit that has failed a charge

I'm very certain that you would be able to use your fly move as it says that you may move as if it was remaining moves and since you can fly in remaining moves no question about it. However if you can use it after a failed charge? One side of me wants to say yes as I think they only put the "as...

Re: Wait...Sea Guard? Really? - 2400 points

Hi! Granted I do believe it is a cool list, but I honestly dont think it will fare very well unfortunatly. The reason being that even tho you have 2 Archmages if you get one round of lets say 3-2 winds of magic without a channel you got (500ish points) doing absolutely nothing (k maybe 1 spell) so t...

Re: How do you run your sisters?

Does AP actually stack? Seems to me it would be a duplicate of a special rule and hence only apply once. AP does not stack. Sisters don't have AP. They have Arrows of Isha which grants a -1 one to Armor vs destruction. It does not grant AP. For that reason they are two different abilities that happ...

Errrrrm.... Cloak is due to my converted model, can be left off as not needed. I always seem to have 6 or 7 points left though so I throw it in. It has come in handy once or twice when leaving his unit too. I'm sorry if it came out offensive, the Lion cloak does look great but atleast in my opinion...

Why would you put a lion cloak on him? unless you are on a chicken I honestly cant find any use for it.

Re: Universal Battle combat score

One thing that spring to mind, that base 50 should it stay the same all the time or should it change in regard to if you get a crushing,major,minor win/loss? maybe have it as 75,50,25 or would this be offputting or to complicated you think?
