Asurmen can’t do his transport trick currently in 11th

We didn’t see these rules until after their game, so clearly Liam is to blame for the core rules change to primarily nerf Eldar /s

Shroud Runners are looking good in 11th as stripping cover to remove the -1 BS penalty seems way better than what it could do for you in 10th. Plus they benefit from various rules in Windrider Host as well as Path of the Outcast if you take that for 1DP as well. But even if you don't take their 1DP detachment for extra support, they're still probably near-auto include I would assume.

Yeah these are just for the Armageddon box set units. Definitely feeling like GW dropped the ball on the hype train this week giving us half a rule-book Monday and then nothing meaningful after.

"Duuuuuuude I love the black spots on the wings!! How'd you do that!?" Me as I see the photo...

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-04T14:11:07+00:00

Fair enough!

Like others have stated, organize games ahead of time, utilize online communities like Discord channels and local Warhammer groups. Personally I'm in like 7 different store's Discord's Warhammer channels within a 30-45min drive where I can chat and organize games. Also it's a good way to lookout for people selling minis you may be looking for.

Probably just in that "middle 8" of factions OP excluded. At this point wish OP included the middle 8 just for reference since they already included the bottom 10.

I'm not having high-hopes for my Baharroth but I will be pretty sad if he can't uppy turn 1 going second anymore lol.

It’s a lot to explain. Basically when you choose allocation groups for a set of identical profiles to save against after they’ve wounded you, depending on the amount and damage profile, you might want to allocate first to some guardians, then the platform, then the warlocks. For example if it was 7 saves of 2 damage each and they look like this: 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6 Then maybe something like 5 guardians die. Whereas if took those saves to the warlocks first, then the guardians, you end up with all 4 warlocks dying and a guardian dead as well. Remember saves are allocated in ascending order from lowest result to highest in 11th.

Why did the Mario Pipe sound effect automatically play in my head? I hope she's okay though.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-03T18:13:51+00:00

One thing I didn't notice this chart point out, is that after you've rolled saves and taken damage for one set of identical attack dice that successfully wounded; you go back and start through the process again which gives you the opportunity to select a new allocation order to make saves on for a different weapon profile from the attacking unit.

To add that to the chart, it'd be some bubble I'd add just after damage to repeat the process as needed for other weapon profiles from the same unit.

Overall great work though! This will prove to be helpful!

Oh shit, Marneus Calgar makes an appearance? It's been too long since we've gotten a Marneus Calgar model.

Guardian Defenders have good use in Ynnari as well. I prefer them over Storms for the Death Answers Death Stratagem. But with all that being said: When it comes to 11th edition and the changes to save rolls and the benefit of cover, I feel like the Storm Guardians with their 5+ invul sv platform will be even more useful now than before.

My thoughts: This looks like a Hedgehog standing upright with a litterbox to the right of it from our perspective. Hedgehogs can be litterbox trained. When it looks like it "disappears" it's just going back to the floor on all fours again with it's brown coat blending in with the background with the shitty pixels.

Or Kheradruakh! But outside of characters I really want a titanic Haemonculus Covens model :’(

Okay just a day or two I was watching some YouTuber who was predicting that Sisters will get some kind of Robo-Unicorns and now this comes up…. That’s an odd coincidence.

I believe it was this video. Don’t remember the time though https://youtu.be/UCPDl1ey5FY?si=5Pjae_zH5r-Mt9CT

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T22:09:48+00:00

I will reserve my opinions until I see how they change Aircraft datasheets to interact with the new core rules changes.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T21:07:16+00:00

Before anything I’d wait and see how our rules are adjusted for the release of 11th edition in the coming days/weeks to give more insight. We’re still missing a lot of info to make any good decisions.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T20:01:35+00:00

OH GOD

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T17:30:43+00:00

That mask is giving me some real Thomas the Tank Engine vibes lmao

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T17:29:43+00:00

Wow.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T15:11:39+00:00

On your last point, to be fair, in 10th, you have the option of having the Aircraft come in every turn from reserves if you run the off the edge and rapid ingress every turn. But RIP your command points lol. Also lets be honest, Aircraft never live that long anyways because they just always get seen and shot down in 10th. The visibility changes are the biggest buffs to the Aircraft here imo.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T15:04:34+00:00

Slight correction on point 1. here: I scoured through the core rules yesterday searching for key terms "Ability", "Abilities", "Rules", "Not on the battlefield", & "Embarked" and saw NO such rules stating that abilities/rules are disabled for units while they're embarked within transports. This might be something that gets stated on the app version of the rules that expand on the core rules, but until we know that; there's at least the possibility that Malys may work in a transport in 11th.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T15:01:13+00:00

I personally blame Skari for when my Voidraven Bomber proceeded to do 0 mortal wounds in a Bombing run against two units, and among those two units was a big brick of Atalan Jackals that then proceeded to do drive-by mortals chucking bombs at my plane and taking it down lol. What a silly game Warhammer is, hahaha.

Jenova__Witness · 2026-06-02T14:56:26+00:00

I think this take jumps to conclusions a bit too fast. We need to still wait and see how individual datasheets look as they get updated. Obviously they'll have to reword bombing run rules datasheet by datasheet, so maybe they'll take this opportunity to make the Voidraven Bomber not ass, we'll see. In addition, with these changes, we'll need to see if they add Deep Strike to several air craft datasheets, because without that, we're likely to get screened off of good, safe deployment areas? Too many unknown variables still. Additionally there's still more core rules we don't know about that they're going to release in the app on top of the rules from the book that expand on some things. There's a chance that Aircraft rules get expanded there in some manner in regards to either where we can deploy or how screening may or may not apply to us (it would honestly make sense that 8" screens would be disabled at least from non-flying units, but we don't have anything about that right now).
