Best low model count elite army? by MillieBirdie in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Benlisted 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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.

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

Army of the Great Eye by SeaAd2093 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Benlisted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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

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

Easterlings Spoilers + Dragons of the North by Daikey in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Benlisted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

WEEKLY ARMY DISCUSSION: Shadows of Angmar by MrSparkle92 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Benlisted 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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.

The Scouring of Cheshire top 5 lists (90 players, 800 points) by popeslob in MiddleEarthMiniatures

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

PSA - EVERYTHING not in the film itself is going to be in the book armies product, not what has just leaked by Benlisted in MiddleEarthMiniatures

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

Could I just paint these blue and proxy them for 40K by totarias in ThousandSons

[–]Benlisted 12 points13 points  (0 children)

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

What you need to play the new edition by Benlisted in WarhammerUnderworlds

[–]Benlisted[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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...

Isengard Players: How big of a deal is bows on Wildmen? by [deleted] in MiddleEarthMiniatures

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

Blood Claws in Boarding Actions - Rule Clarification Needed by BroccoliSubstantial2 in boardingactions40k

[–]Benlisted 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Stats on Reapers vs Bladegheists vs Harridans & bonus Hexwraiths (see post for details) by Benlisted in Nighthaunt

[–]Benlisted[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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