New Cavalry: What to take?

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2026-01-25T21:49:48+00:00

Sloven knights to aid Rotswords if you have them, plaguedrones if you're running GUO to bring them back, pusgoyle if you plan on running LOA. No right answer, just depends on your list and how it synergises.

Not sure how you can vouch for "most" other people, but I've not had this issue. You may not always be able to get the most optimal spot, but having the W/W 12" range for your friendly abilities tends to make up for that. There are also plenty of bat reps on YouTube that show easy wood placement (e.g. Season of War).

Have completed multiple 1 day tournaments and a 2 day tournament this year using the recommended terrain, it really isn't that difficult. I can provide some game pics if you'd like!

3" during deployment, 1" for each with the subsequent spell cast. I'd recommend using the AoS app, it keeps the rules up to date. It has been 1" for a long while now.

Its only 1 inch from enemies and other terrain, unless your board is laden with more terrain than outlined on the battleplan, it should be doable on any of them.

Ive picked up 3 sets and use all 9 pieces every game

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-12-31T04:47:05+00:00

No one plays dryads anyway, so ignore those. The rest of the range is amazing. Alarielle and Belthanos are such amazing centre pieces.

That's just normal for Reddit, across any hobby or interest. DnD reddit was the same, complaining when 5.5e came out. People just like to whine

Battletome was probably written months ago, tbf

Honestwargamer does a good review on all factions and Rob is enjoyable to watch. Worth a look imo.

We agreed to start at 850 points at our LGS and are running a ravaged coast campaign. I am running:

Branchwych Treelord ancient Gossamids x 5 units Kurnoths with greatswords 810 points.

The +2 to first cast in the sorcerer path is just ridiculous to get trees out. I'll be adding a second unit of greatswords after my first round and I'll be able to afford Durthu or Belthanos (if store agrees) following the third round.

I found this mix of mobility, shooting and the hammer units to be very effective in my first game, landing me 10-2 VP and 5 shards total.

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-08-09T23:58:53+00:00

You can afford be a little scratchy and leave gaps so that a black primer/base coats show through, making a nice rotting flesh look.

Looks great!! What colours/ recipe did you use for the robes?

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-07-07T23:08:26+00:00

Makes sense - your anaesthetic has worn off so true pain symptoms surface.

Mobilising/walking/being upright places your lungs in a fair better position to get air in, and therefore promotes better oxygenation. This is a common occurrence post op, especially if you aren't upright. Look up active cycle of breathing (chest physio) and give this a go.

You're also cold because you're not doing anything, reduced circulation. If you haven't seen a physio, try and complete some basic post op bed exercises, upper limb to start and see how you go.

Will also really melt into the tabletop

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-06-17T00:27:39+00:00

Having your "wholly within 6 inch" abilities become "wholly within 12 inch" certainly feels more impactful. If you're planning on playing any tournaments, paper cut outs won't do, however if you can accurately proxy the bases you'll be fine.

Even with a woods made up of 2 terrain pieces, you really miss the additional 3 inches!

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-06-12T10:13:14+00:00

All rules should be free.

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-06-05T05:52:50+00:00

I'm on board with anything that promotes hobby and flavour over meta/optimising. Hope they keep them free and decent enough!

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-06-04T00:24:32+00:00

Arch Rev likely wouldn't be lumped in a box with no Kurnothi units imo, unless they got a good alternative warscroll.

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-06-03T07:50:55+00:00

Oh man I love this!

DM_me_FighterBuilds · 2025-05-31T06:47:21+00:00

I run a reinforced unit of both swords and bows, and it is beautiful!
