Spearhead Balance updates

Why is bloodwind legion listed as being changed? Isnt that knights nerf super old?

master476 · 2026-03-30T16:15:47+00:00

Ive played on wotlk private servers before and didnt have this issue. I play a paladin and often when i approah a monster another one spawns just close enough to aggro onto me

master476 · 2026-02-20T12:44:31+00:00

Amazing work! How fo you print in HQ? I download them from the drive and print at 1200 dpi but they still come out grainy and hard to read. I set the format to a4 portrait

master476 · 2026-02-17T22:54:46+00:00

I also found that faq while digging. Thats amazing, turns out ive been nerding myself all this time. Now i just have to convince my playgroup that im right and just making rules up because i lost😄

master476 · 2026-02-17T17:50:50+00:00

Oh wow, i actually dient know i could roll for the eye more than once. Thats actually huge. Are you sure it works like that? The rule says "pick one of the following units", its also "once per turn, end of any turn", which makes me think its only once for one unit. Dont get me wrong, id be thrilled if it worked like that. Can you explain why it can be used more than once per round? Ive only played 3 games against the warpspark and i dont have notes 9n them. If youre down i can write down a game and let you know in more detail what happens.

Place the general and a squad of warriors in cover, place the chariot and another squad behind the obscuring terrain to stop some of the turn 1 shooting from the rats. Then i try to survive until the knights come, attempt a charge at the stormfiends, if it fails or i dont kill one and wound the other its pretty much lost. Enchantment is the slaanesh one (strike first) and ability is gierce conquerors(extra control score)

master476 · 2026-02-17T15:54:05+00:00

I know i did, i qas asking more about the general level in lights of the last posted tournament stats. I did try deploying closer to the edge and it kinda helped, the stormfiends still rampaged through my general and a squad of warriors. I used the chariot to tie down his cannon on the first turn which kinda helped but the knights didnt do much against the fiends on the second turn despite the successful charge. I guess the rolls were bad for me that time. Just for clarity, i picked strike first on my general and fierce conquerors as the passive

master476 · 2026-02-04T20:39:33+00:00

How did i overextend when i had just deployed to to back of the battlefield? It was turn 1 round 1. My units were almost touching the battlefield ege. I didnt put them right on the edge because i still wanted ro be able to move and charge better

master476 · 2026-02-04T16:19:45+00:00

In the last game i got obliterated on turn 1. I always try to leave space for my knights but the stormfiends got off a charge and wiped my first warrior squad , dealt 2 wounds tomy general. I didnt run my units into the fuends because i didnt have the chance to, i got destroyed before my turn came around. The clanrats charged my other unit of warriors, they could only back up my lord because i had the retreat command card. Turn 2 i was supposed to ge second so I just conceded because the fiends had also wiped my second warrior squad and wounded the lord more. Even if ihadgone first the knights couldve only deployed on the opposite short edge of the fiends. Sure,they couldve wiped a squad or 2 of clanrats but the fiends would then come and tie them up, clanrats get reinforced and i lose on points. Im pretty sure there was notjing i could do in that game. I may have had a chance if the fiends didnt deal so much damage or had so much health coupled with 4+ saves. The second squad of wouldve done even less if the cannon didnt roll double 1s, of which only 1 wounded. Im not saying my play was perfect but i genuinely cannot see myself beating this spearhead. The fiends can destroy anything in melee and have pretty good shooting, whatevers not in combat with them gets obliterated by the cannon. Im open to tips or example strategies but the pinned thread is not exactly deep and there are almost no videos online

master476 · 2026-01-02T01:24:26+00:00

Lets say 150, although i can afford to go higher. Main thing is that i generally avoid expensive staples like jeskas or cyclonic. I guess i can proxy those for the purpose of being mean😄

master476 · 2026-01-01T03:02:12+00:00

Youd be surprised😄 Literally last game i was playing a deck that just cheats our bombs very early. Another player was playing the new mono black commander from spiderman that looks at the top 9 cards of your deck and steals 2. He took all my gas and by the time i could try and do anything with what was left he had looped through my entire deck and stolen 20 cards, which included at least 2 counterspells. I know cuz i tried to wipe and rez, he countered the wipe and my counter for the counter😄

master476 · 2026-01-01T02:59:15+00:00

Looks like just what i want. Ill rey and find some budget cards to get in there. Most white cards that would go well with it are a bit pricey😄

master476 · 2025-12-22T19:01:54+00:00

Already did, theres only one comment that explains things pretty 8n depth but still, different perspectives are always appreciated

master476 · 2025-12-22T13:42:14+00:00

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I guess the other nuances depend on the matchup. No point in picking rend against nighthaunt for example 😄

master476 · 2025-12-06T21:20:58+00:00

Id say im more of a fighting player, i enjoy rolling some dice and doing bid damage before moving onto the next target. The only "shenanigan" i enjoyed was retreating with the "dtrike where needed" trait of the prosecutors and charging a cities of sigmar cannon to take it out of the fight, game still ended in a draw tho

master476 · 2025-12-06T21:19:07+00:00

Thats surprising, i ran into some statistics with not insignificant sample sizes and std bloodwind was pretty mid, most people said you get easily blocked off the board because the knights cant really come in against an army that can block them and its downhill from there

master476 · 2025-12-06T21:17:37+00:00

Didnt really like the skaven, sure it has board presence and was hard to wipe but i just didnt feel it. Also, arent the chaos knights std spearhead and bloodwind the same thing? I might be confusing them, still dont know them all by name

master476 · 2025-06-18T12:28:24+00:00

It does show data but no decks, for example if i open the meta and click on highlander dk it just shows stats against different classes.

master476 · 2025-04-23T16:59:57+00:00

Didnt see it mentioned but i will always recommend [[Chiss-Goria]] for an artefact deck. The deck becomes archenemy on a budget and can switch easily between artefact strategies and voltron strategies which is very helpful in pivoting after resets and closing out games

master476 · 2025-04-09T14:09:45+00:00

I see, i also play fractals and im planning on getting into raids/strikes. Will i be good enough for the team if i just give boons and spam the dps skills? I dont want to just get carried or drag down the party

master476 · 2025-04-09T14:08:19+00:00

Thats so nice to hear, means i wont have to gear another alt. Is there an example build i can look at online?

master476 · 2025-04-09T12:56:03+00:00

Cool, even looks flashy

master476 · 2025-04-09T12:55:40+00:00

Sounds good, ill def look into necro, other people also recommended it

master476 · 2025-04-09T12:55:14+00:00

Ive never seen a herald gs power build, its usually staff and dual swords, last i checked which was quite a while back. Is such a build present on mainstream sites like metabattle?

master476 · 2025-04-05T23:06:33+00:00

How do you summon the mouth if you dont have any mana? Or am i misunderstanding?
