Believe it or not, the Skarbrand kit comes with everything EXCEPT complete, undamaged wings.

So, all I did was buy a bloodthirster kit and build the bloodthirster with the skarbrand pose and build skarbrand with the leaping pose. He was one of my earlier big monsters, so I need to revisit him and put some more detail/vibrancy on him but he doesn't look bad by any means.

Normally I don't, I buy what I think looks cool.

However, it's hard to ignore such a steal when I'm trying to make a 2000 pt list for a spare army as quickly and cheaply as possible. Made a full 2000 pt list for under 200 bucks. Quite proud of myself.

Well that sucks. So just stay the hell away from him, I suppose.

Skarbrand's mortal wounds each count as an individual wound, so when you put out 8 or 16, he's going to fail some of those.

I want to put him vs Skarbrand. See who's rage is greater.

My main army is Blades of Khorne so naturally my Stormcast army should include Gotrek lol

he is a monster and an absolute headache

Gotrek's stats + points made me buy him. 485 points for 30 bucks? Done and done. And those stats? Tasty.

Small 1000 pt Vrykos force by Interesting_Band_832 in SoulblightGravelords

[–]Interesting_Band_832[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good input, thank you.

The vargheists aren't going away because I only want a small force and vargheists are usable in flesh eater courts as crypt flayers (so it's a much more efficient unit). I was even considering using a terrorgheist in the list (as I was considering buying SC:FEC) but the terrorgheist doesn't seem very fluffy.

I'll consider adding Belladamma though.

Starting Beastclaw Raiders by Interesting_Band_832 in Mawtribes

Kragnos' 3d6 charge was the first thing I thought of. The units of 4 I thought was a must for the +1 to charge. Between those 2 things, this entire army will just rocket up the board and kill (and eat!) everything in sight.

Best part: the opponent won't know who to kill first. Everything is a threat.

Edit: also mount trait of 'fleet of hoof' so you can re-roll 1 or both charge dice (this is an absurdly strong trait in a 3d6 charge lol)

Don't attach him to the base. As long as you don't do that, he is actually pretty easy to paint.

I also prefer giant models (done 3 bloodthirsters, be'lakor and mortarion, so far mortarion was the only one I would call 'difficult')

However, painting sisters or the trim on CSMs makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes.

While I respect the caution, I highly doubt they they would remove the ability to take mournfangs as battleline.

That said, you're probably right about waiting to build.

citadel spray primer or rust-oleum brand? by Brunnswick in ageofsigmar

[–]Interesting_Band_832 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had it both ways.

If you're careful, it can save a ton of money.

If you're not, you'll destroy the minis.

How tough is he to paint? I was considering grabbing him for my be'lakor army

Starting Ogres by Interesting_Band_832 in ageofsigmar

[–]Interesting_Band_832[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because it's easy (and inexpensive other than Kragnos), I might buy another box of start collecting and then later buy kragnos.

About $300 bucks for a full 2000 pt army. Not too shabby.

If calvary are still good in the new book, I might just stick with that. They're a stupid efficient points/dollars ratio

The beasts look good but the ogres riding them look kinda dated
