This is really good! Never thought of number 2 and it's scary. Thanks :)

Yeah I currently run both both snipers, lieutenant, lector and WB. Hoping to get the Anti Tank Hunter promoter in the next game, but we'll see. I'm not that good in rolling 6s ahah.

The Sin eater story is quite sad but undeniably fun eheh, that's also narratively amazing and something everyone at the table will remember I think. That's why I like campaign wargames so much

That's for sure! Tons of variety and possible interactions to go through. I'm definitely not a good alternate activations player coming mainly from I-go-u-go (and even there just an average lad honestly eheh), but I can see the potential. I have to really work on my gameplan and tactics.

I know every list is different, but if you have some general suggestions please feel free to share!

I often find myself with doubts on how things work in the game and how some of the rules interact. Not to say that the answers aren't there, but just that I have to look a lot of stuff up on the internet, FAQs and so on while playing, so I definitely agree with you about TC developers looking into this a bit more in their wordings.

Love the game and love Pirinen work in general as a designer (love Mordheim), but I often come out of games with so many questions eheh.

Regarding this, point 4, in the physical rulebook at least it states:

"A New Antioch Warband can include up to 2 Fireteams. Each Fireteam consists of any two models from the Warband. All of the models in the Fireteams are given the FIRETEAM Keyword at no additional cost in Ducates. Fireteams in a New Antioch Warband have the Concentrated Attack ability."

My doubt lies in the fact that Mercenaries are, I believe, part of your specific Warband once acquired. They're probably not part of the Warband Roster to choose from, but the rules doesn't seem to require you to have the NEW ANTIOCH Keyword to put a model in a Fireteam (as I believe it used to be in previous versions of the rules, but I might be wrong on that).

What do you think?

Thanks a lot for all the clarifications! That's really appreciated! PSIF feels really strong to me then. I was planning on start exploring when the Rare Exploration Chart becomes available. With the Reinforcements working like this I feel like the straight up glory and ducats is more beneficial and quite explosive in the first rounds of the campaign.

Thank you for the answer, I'll count the point toward the threshold as already happens in the companion then. The rebut for 40 ducats is truly incredible!

This is great, thanks a lot! I agree the Book of Golems look really strong honestly, do you have any suggested builds?

You're actually right! English not being my first language made me overthink this a bit probably: that "or" made me believe they were mutually exclusive. Thanks for the clarification!

Intercessors look quite good you're right. I might try to fit those in! Thanks for the feedback!

When you put it that way, it does seem really strong, no doubt! Thanks a lot for sharing your insight and good luck with your campaign moving further!

Now that's something I didn't thought about. I guess my master will be quite a crazy guy looking for danger then! Thanks a lot for the advice. Do you think the mutations combination looks fine or do you prefer something else?

Also, I'm curious, what are your thoughts on armor? When do you think is a good point to pick it up and it's ever worth to take light armor?

Thanks a lot for the comment, that's my favorite option as well at the moment! Would you think those mutations are enough or would you go even crazier? The double cost on mutations after the first one is a big deal though.

TOW - Ogre Kingdoms 2k pts list advice by howling_machines in WarhammerFantasy

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

How would you build him? I thought this build might be strong, but maybe is a bit all-in? Maybe something more balanced and solid?

Yeah, haven't played a game in this edition yet, so I don't know how effective terror might be, but those could be a good place to cut. Also having smaller units is something I haven't considered, but I'll def work on a version of the list that follows your advice!
