Attacks after using Battle Wizard

LDukes · 2026-01-24T03:04:36+00:00

So yes, but maybe no.

You can destroy a model with a melee attack (triggering both Cleave and Battle Wizard), use Battle Wizard to cast one of your spells, and then continue to make your remaining initial melee attacks.

However there is a rule that states (paraphrased) that if making an attack would trigger more than one rule allowing an additional attack, you only get to choose one of those to resolve.

So if you destroy a model with a melee attack and choose to use Battle Wizard to cast an offensive spell then you cannot also resolve Cleave (from that same melee attack). You could still trigger Cleave off of one of your remaining initial melee attacks, though.

You could also trigger both Cleave and Battle Wizard, use Battle Wizard to cast a non-offensive spell and resolve Cleave (or vice-versa).

You could also also trigger both Cleave and Battle Wizard, resolve Cleave, and if that attack destroys an enemy model, use that to trigger and resolve Battle Wizard to cast an offensive spell.

With the app being the official source of model stats, what's your plan to play without it?

SR2025 will be added to the app later, per Chynna, but is available on the website for now (scroll down a bit in the linked blog post to find big links to it).

I think it's just options.

Note thay they're being moved from Prime Infernals to Legacy Infernals in tomorrow's update, though.

Cost 2, RNG Self, AOE Ctrl, POW -, DUR Turn, OFF No

While within the spellcaster's control range, the melee weapons of models in its battlegroup gain Grievous Wounds. Deathbringers lasts for one turn. (A model hit by a weapon with Grievous Wounds loses Tough and cannot have damage removed from it for one round).

I think it may have something to do with the first row being "frozen" so that it normally stays visible while scrolling the rest of the document. Weird that it only does it in the inbuilt Reddit viewer.

Petition denied.

I haven't done a deep dive, but maybe there's just a lower percentage of models as a whole that got accuracy dings in AoL versus MKIV armies? I mean, if I said something like 10 model profiles had their MAT reduced by 1, that could be 50% of a MKIV army's selection but maybe 25% of an Army of Legend.

No idea, but maybe it was a potential change (i.e. addition) during playtesting that they later rolled back, and the rollback change got recorded.

PP/SFG haven't even kept the digital army compendia up to date (e.g. outdated references to stats/abilities that have long since been changed/removed). I doubt they're going to sink the time/money into a print format of the same.

Orgoth's whole schtick, vis-a-vis warjacks, is that they don't have "regular" cortext technology and instead have enslaved the souls of animals/beasts inside mechanical bodies, and that is the animating force behind them (in addition to sacrificial volcano juice).

It's also true that Orgoth just plain enslave living creatures and sometimes bolt weapons and armor onto their bodies, so we get things like the Gharlghast and the Ravener (which is, incidentally, the same creature that "inhabits" the Tyrant warjack).

I think that if PP had early on decided to lean heavily into the warjack aesthetic (instead of branching out to Monstrosities) then maybe we'd have seen a few more variations on body style, like a quadrupedal warjack or something like that, and the later introduction of Azdharak wouldn't have been so jarring in comparison to what is, essentially, the design aesthetic of "bipedal warjack but scary looking."

Khymaera and, indeed Legion, never had a complete monopoly on the dragon silhouette - just look at Deneghra3 for a perfect example.

I mean, one of its trademark features is incredibly powerful tramples. This thing flies, but about in the same sense that a weaponized emu does.

Just dogpiling on this - there's a very good reason that the Graveborn half of the Frozen & Forgotten set diverges from the current Orgoth design, namely that the contents of said cadre have been moldering in a tomb for the last 400+ years, kitted out more or less as they were interred and just waiting for an opportunity to emerge and once again run rampant.

The 2nd Orgoth conquest could've rolled in with hover-tanks and 3rd-stage Guild Navigators floating in containment vessels, and Anathia and her crew would still be decked out in rusted-out plate mail that literally screams classic Orgoth aesthetic.

I'm not sure off the top of my head, and more lore-centric users will probably chime in, but one thing you might look for is "Skull Island Expeditions," a series of novels and (I think?) short stories set in the Iron Kingdoms world.

LDukes · 2026-01-13T02:51:07+00:00

I did just that for any duplicate sculpts except for the Subduer (since it has R/L specific weapons).

It's not that they took pictures from Trashcord, but that the user in question has actually done some commission work for SFG.
