Tzeralds

Tzerald (ml3) w/11 Pink Horrors < 200pts

Is there a quicker way to grab twenty magic dice? I suppose if I wasn't running them as my primary, I would be stuck with only two units.. max on that for horrors would be six instead of eight.

Fielding four units is basically just sexy. Pop Malefic daemonology on everything and even without a second HQ, it is summoning heaven. You wind up with Flicking Fire all day every day on everything. It is just mind blowing. I am pretty much solid with the idea of saving my hordes of Khorne daemons for summoning rolls and manning my Wall of Martyrs defense network with these guys.

The only thing I have left to do is figure out how to field my Exalted Flamers. I have at least two coming from my brother who occasionally does some beautiful work for me. Local tournaments have been pretty sure they don't want Combined Arms detachments, so I can't really just field a second Herald group. I think having the 50pt Exalted Flamers in units would just give me some extra POW! when folks try to roll up on them. I have at least 600pts of terrain, so for me being able to string that stuff along my deployment zone is ludicrously cool. Even without a greater daemon or princes I can hit 1500pts without fielding flamers and screamers. Just kick back and summon wave after wave of full command bloodletters, blood crushers, or flesh hounds in front of my Defense Network. It isn't a perfect strategy, but it might be really fun to pop four summonings every turn until my Pink Horror units start blowing themselves up.

War Machines in Age of Sigmar

Well, I've been trying to figure this out because with a dwarf/elf army it becomes pretty important- usually like first turn important. After our first game it became apparent that war machines are very dangerous in Age of Sigmar. Something has me puzzled though- and it is part because of the streamlined rules and in part because of conflicting reports I've uncovered on the internet. Let's start at the beginning. WARSCROLLS & UNITS “All models are described by warscrolls, which provide all of the rules for using them in the game. You will need warscrolls for the models you want to use.” “Models fight in units. A unit can have one or more models, but cannot include models that use different warscrolls. A unit must be set up and finish any sort of move as a single group of models, with all models within 1" of at least one other model from their unit.” When I first read this it seemed very apparent that you would never have more than one unit in a warscroll. B...

One army, Two Games

I have been debating about how to do this. The main thing is deciding whether or not I really want to bother with it. But all of my daemons are currently legal for Warhammer 40k and Age of Sigmar because they share the same base size. So the issue is, with the return of Warhammer: The Old World the bases are really screwy. So let me explain. If I try to transfer over my daemons the oval bases for the most part won't fit on the square bases. In addition to the roughly 25 Bloodletters I also have about 60 Pink Horrors and 9 Flamers. If I rebase any of this stuff, then I won't have access to it in another game. So with these models I am basically restarting from scratch on my Infantry. I have thirty more Pink Horrors and nine more Flamers on the way, so I am simply going to start them on new 30mm bases if I want to use them. If I decide to redo my Khorne daemons, I might honestly - but that's probably down the line. So stuff is going to work a lot better. As illust...
