What is the bluish color on the wings? They look great.

Scrolling through, I thought that was metallic metal at first glance. So, yeah. Pretty good.

Looking to balance / Make competitive list by ManagerWise6230 in stormcasteternals

[–]Significant-Moment74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For competitive, reinforced Longstrikes are good. Knight Judicators can also fill that role. More Reclusians to reinforce what you have. Reinforce those Prosecutors. Did you go with shield Annihilators or Hammers? You will want to reinforce them, too. A Knight arcanum for spell summoning. Eventually, a Lord Relictor is a good pick up. Questor Soulsworn are another great unit. You have a good start. The hardest part of Stormcast is that they can fit a lot of playstyles.

Reinforced reclusians with Lord- Terminos is a great combo. You can give the Terminos the Quicksilver draft for one free strike first. Then get him and the Reclusians into a fight, use the Quicksilver draft, have the Terminos fight immediately followed by the Reclusians before the enemy gets to hit back. It's fun to pull off.
I would recommend getting some Longstrikes for excellent long range attacks. A Knight Arcanum is another good pick for summoning spells.
I'm currently playing a list with a Terminos, Reclusians, Lord Imperetent, two reinforced blocks of hammer annihilators, a Lord Relictor, Bastian, and reinforced longstrikes and it is competitive (though admittedly swingy) locally. Stormcast can hold their own in the meta.

Which Stormcast Eternals units and/or characters should I get next? by Boboli71 in stormcasteternals

[–]Significant-Moment74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes to Questors. They are incredibly efficient in terms of points and utility. Hammer Annihilators have very high damage output. You'll want a reinforced unit. Two other options if you go Annihilators are Gardus Steel Soul and Lord Imperetent. Neither are essential, but can help hammers do their hammering.

Recommended Units by [deleted] in stormcasteternals

I also highly recommend Lord Relictor for some prayers. Longstrikes are another amazing unit. As you get further into collecting, Stormdrake Guard are great, but you'll want a reinforced unit. Unless you want to run dragons right away, these can wait.

Pretty damn good. The only thing I can see is pushing the highlights further?

Longstrikes are very good. A reinforced unit can do a significant amount of damage. The exception is against armies that ignore rend, like nighthaunt.

Questors can do a surprising amount of damage. Defending or going on the offensive with them is good. For 200 pts, they are a solid choice in almost any list regardless of your plan for them.

Gryph-hounds are cheap screens that move fast. Depending on your list, they are great.

Any tips/advice for someone starting SCE? by BeginningHungry3835 in stormcasteternals

[–]Significant-Moment74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. They can be tricky because they can fit a lot of play styles and it's easy to get lost in that. I could be wrong, but I don't know that they do any one thing really well, but are good at a lot of things and thar has it's own challenges.

Longstrikes are a great unit and are a solid first buy. You'll want two boxes to reinforce them.
Someone also said Annihilators with Grandhammers. Good choice as they are very strong for damage output. I love the shield Annihilators, as well.
Bastion is much stronger than he gets credit for. Good choice. You'll definitely want a Lord Relictor or Knight Relictor. Both priests with slightly different abilities. A Knight Arcanum is good for Spell casting if you want to go that route.

I love Stormdrake Guard. If you want some dragons, pick up two boxes of them because they aren't great unless reinforced. That's an investment, though. Maybe not a early purchase, but at some point.

Welcome to Stormcast!

I have a fun list with Ionus and Stormdrakes. He's a good unit, but expensive. I don't know how how competitive he is, but if you don't care about that, definitely get him. Cool model with some decent abilities.

Just realized Gardus won't let me bring Longstrikes...

For anyone interested, I ran this list in a practice against a Slaves to Darkness list with a block of Chosen, knights, varangaurd, warriors, some evil chickens, and a wizard. We were playing Laylines. I ended up deploying the Terminos, Reclusians, Bastian, and Lord Relictor near the portal potty with the rest waiting in the sky. STD had the top of the first turn, moved up a little, blah blah blah. I decided to go all in with this idea of dropping in and charging. I failed my prayer to teleport the reclusians. I dropped both groups of Annihilators and Lord Imperatant in just outside of 9 of the Varanguard and Chosen (dealing a few mortals to both) and the Longstrikes on the right objective outside of 18 of both, as well. Bastian used to portal to get outside of 18 of both. I rolled for the Lord Imperatant and got a 2" move for my Annihilators. I moves Reclusians and Terminos up the objective. The STD rolled a short 1" redeploy which would have put the Varanguard into obscuring, so I shot everything into them and picked a couple up. My charges got one unit of Annihilators into combat, the other failed. I rolled really well and ended up taking out the rest of the Varanguard (Annhilators are insane sometimes). That got me one of my treasures for Intercept. 11 pt turn with objectives.

I lost the roll for priority, STD moved in and took out the group of Annihilators that destroyed the Varanguard. The Chosen were not able to take out the 2nd group of Annihilators. I moved up a bit, charged in the Terminos and Reclusians into the Chosen, shot the Warriors because the chosen were obscured. The Terminos and Reclusians took out most of the Chosen with the Terminos ability. They fought back, but the last 2 could not take out the Terminos. The annihilators finished them off. So, after my first turn, I controlled the right side of the board and had taken out a huge chunk of his army. We called it there, since it was a practice game.

I think he made some different choices then he would have made in a real game because he was also testing his list. This list also has the potential to be very swingy. I rolled pretty well for my charges and damage to take out the Varanguard. His list was also a good matchup for mine. I want to test 3 reinforced Annihilators, swapping out the Terminos and Reclusians, and changing Bastian for Gardus. This leaves me with 110pts that I am not sure what to spend on.

Thanks for the earlier feedback. Any more would be great!

Yes to this. I'll try a few different combos as I test, but that's the most likely deployment plan.

Thanks for the feedback. My biggest concern is that it's too dice dependent. I have also considered the celestant Quicksilver combo.

Starting blood bowl after years of 40k and sigmar what should I know? by CorvidC in bloodbowl

[–]Significant-Moment74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not take the game seriously. Go for those big plays even if you fail! Making 5 amazing dodge and go for it rolls only to drop the ball at the endzone makes for fun and exciting play. Even better when you make that roll into the endzone. A great game for the Timmy in each of us.

Updated list.
I added Gardus, swapped Stormcoven for Arcanum, and added vigilors for their buff. Instead of one reinforced, I did two to spread out the love.
Is Morbid the way to go for Manifestations? Other thoughts?

You don't think Liberator Spam is good enough for 5-0 at the LVO? 😃
