Re: Milliardo's Mental Anaphylaxia

And another update - today I cleaned mold lines, and spray primed them all. I had just enough black spray left - it ran out on literally the last model. I'll take some pictures later before I begin painting them. I should probably take some of my old black templars and paint over to practice, but I'...

Re: Birthdays Are Hard... :(

Make a Nagarythe or Pre-Sundering army using models from both ranges, so you can play with both army books.

Re: Milliardo's Mental Anaphylaxia

I'm nothing if not busy! ...just unfocused to the point of comedy... I'm zipping from one thing to another, trying to somehow unite them all into a functioning whole... which is part of the reason I still think the Loremaster is the best bit of the new book... we're both jack of all trades master of...

Thanks for the link mate - I still don't want to build one from scratch, but I can read the forums and information there so I at least understand what is better than what! :3 Quick update - today I washed the models in the sink to get off finger oils and mold release agent.

Re: Milliardo's Mental Anaphylaxia

Episode 38: Milliardo sells out completely. Also, tanks and annoying image linking. I finally sold Dreadfleet! :3 What's more, I got a good price for it, and I also got a half-painted copy of it back as well, so the only thing I really lost was my battlefoam insert ($40), and the $5 novel that I ga...

Re: Baptism of Fire

Hey, cool list bro. :3

I like the Great-stag and the Wild Rider unit in general and this list is definitely built around it. Kind of a Wood Elf version of a cavalry prince list. Hope it went well!

Re: MSU HE - army list review

I like the new list a lot - the chariots go very well with the MSU concept, for all the reasons you mentioned... in a list like yours, I think I might keep them separate - they add more drops, and their footprint is very small, and because of the corner to corner support charge, you can keep them be...

Re: MSU HE - army list review

Put me down for list 2 as well - I like Seaguard myself, but I feel they do better in units of 20-30... and the banners are fine where they are in my opinion. They look good and for blood and glory they're always useful. I know you're working with models you have, but I'd pick up and paint more Reav...

Nah, not quite what I meant - I mean, if there were theoretically just a character that could dispel without being able to cast (and blow himself up), I'm certain it would be a good idea. :3 I'm still thinking the Loremaster is the right way to go for your list - he doesn't need the protection a nor...

Re: The Journey of 100 battles..Battle 84 vs Warriors

I like the second option because armored stuff is so prevalent these days, but the chariots take a huge hit in power without the accompanying Prince. I think I'd take the second, and find something to replace the chariots... or just keep with the first.

Re: HE MSU at ConVic - Game 1 - updated 19.07

Edit: I am not sure if I really tried to cast Fireball. I remember, however, I cast the first spell with 2 dice and got a miscast. Then I got a cascade. Then I lost the Loremaster. Ouch!

Get that Loremaster a stick, quick. Earthing Rod, stat.

I think if he vanguarded the reavers up ahead of the rest of the army, they'd be instantly shot off the board.

Re: MSU HE - meet Larry the Loremaster!

... although I don't really rate the Earthing rod on a level 2 (I believe you have a 11/36 chance of rolling a 2-4 or a 10-12, so re-rolling a 10-12 with the possibility of making it a 2-4 is horrendous IMO) Hi.

Re: MSU HE - meet Larry the Loremaster!

I think so, yes. :3 He's your only lord-level caster. While he still works without it, with an 8 dice phase its the difference between getting off 3-4 spells instead of 2-3. After your opponent dispels, its the difference between 2 spells and 1 spell. With the book, he dispels almost as well as an a...
