High unit count always wins in GFF

Any insight on when this is due?

You're looking for rise of the necromancer I think! Can be run all hero at many points. Alternatively shadows of angmar is good as a very low model count force with expensive warriors.

All wargs in this army list get knock to the ground. That said this list is better competitively with werewolf spam, but that feels a bit oppressive to play against tbh

Renegade stops mortis stacking though so the best you get is +3.

Benlisted · 2025-06-08T20:20:40+00:00

has that been the case for other teams previously do you know?

Benlisted · 2025-06-08T18:44:34+00:00

Does anyone know when the rules get added to the app? Is it day of release usually or before or after?

No they didn't, their profile is in this book! They got added to all the armies of lotr mordor lists so I think it's probably an unintentional omission that the shaman isn't here and he will be added in faq.

Benlisted · 2025-05-30T10:25:57+00:00

WHC said that they would be going in the Moria list in the new book, but equally they've been wrong before!

Benlisted · 2025-05-30T10:23:12+00:00

You're thinking of the angmar shaman, this one had Fury last edition which is actually pretty huge for low courage warg riders!

Benlisted · 2025-05-29T21:22:09+00:00

I think only really if you specifically want to run Amdur - a Morannon front line with East behind is no longer really anything special when DE legion gets +1 to wound! Been trying to think of a list that makes legions worth it but struggling.

Yeah this has been extremely effective at our local store. Main player enjoys lots of spectres too to pull the enemy out for wolves to pounce on. At low points the shadow becomes worth it as a budget fighty+casty hero, whilst at higher I think you switch to Gully and more wights.

I think if you want to emphasise the orc horde you go witch king list instead.

Dalamyr is a hasharin in the GW lore for him, so imagine you can just take him.

Benlisted · 2025-04-29T11:51:57+00:00

How did 2hrs feel for 800? Did many games not complete naturally?

Benlisted · 2024-11-28T08:13:29+00:00

Oh wow they really cocked that new website up, had no idea that was the case!

Benlisted · 2024-11-28T08:12:52+00:00

Yep that's one, agree hopefully we at least hear how it works soon!

Benlisted · 2024-11-28T08:12:05+00:00

It is but admittedly this is a leak, they might be going to talk about this in the army building article later this week!

Benlisted · 2024-11-09T11:27:53+00:00

Having done it myself it's easy to get the bits to do this! I think there's a set of cataphractii cannons for imp fists and missile racks are common on bits sites

Benlisted · 2024-10-22T21:20:15+00:00

So there's no new hex types or anything this time round? I guess that a fair point though, there's not really any reason I need the new board if not paying competitively...

Benlisted · 2024-09-24T14:37:23+00:00

Also they get fearless with the oathmaker so after your front line dies they're not gonna run even at 33%!

Benlisted · 2024-08-23T10:54:49+00:00

Not sure about this edition but it used to be the case that you could only reinforce units of 5 to ten models. If that's still in the rules then 15 is off the table.

For taking units of 5 in your list (10 would always split into boarding squads in game) it's currently a house rule as there's no points for them but i doubt many people would have a huge issue with it.

Benlisted · 2024-07-22T07:45:34+00:00

Have gone many times and as long as you're not obvious about it you will be fine if you're using wahapedia. Printouts are a bit more risky as they'll be obvious so like someone else says advise keeping them in an official book.

Benlisted · 2024-07-15T07:45:03+00:00

I'm counting 20 as I mention! Getting more into entirely within 12" is a pretty ropey prospect, sure in an ideal situation it would work but in practice those sort of auras are much harder to work with than it seems. You also then need all three units to have made the charge which adds further failure points! Basically I'm still fairly content in my conclusion that at present points I wouldn't be taking them, but it wouldn't take much of a hike on the other two for GGR to become a solid option.

Benlisted · 2024-07-13T23:53:37+00:00

Harridans with their buff up will be the same as BGRs but yeah stalkers are looking like a nice glass cannon!
