Yeah the chaos dwarves feel your pain. The thing with special event armies are that they are for…special events. I have a all Daemonette army thats shelved, pending new oppurtunities. You could still use the models but I understand your fustration. As a side note skaven may give you problems but as the way the game is played is changed most of…[Read more]

Slayer armies had a little more than ”a fighting chance” in storm of chaos, If I recall correctly.

Well this leauge just started so you can jump right in!

Well no worries on the treeman. If the points restriction didnt rule him out of the wound per model restriction certainly would. I think the larger question though is a valid one Re shooting…if a unit has a shooting attack it counts as a shooting unit…as far as points go I dont think the size of the unit matters (so long as core-special-rare…[Read more]

well with a d6+2 either a 2 or the d6 whichever is higher. Seems to reduce magic’s effectiveness at the starting tiers.
