magic items = special rules
special rules are never transferred from rider to mount unless otherwise specified

edit: me posting without reading the post just above me.

You can use Parry if you're mounted. Provided you are on Ogre bull on a Mournfang with an Ironfist.

Otherwise, nope.jpg

Could anyone make a summary of our new army book? I did buy 8th BRB and I "like" the rules, I'm curious if our Army book is playable right now. Its being released saturday and most of the info (all of it pretty much) can be found in the threads already existing and on Hero's blog. Is it a...

To me the blatant underpricing of it as well as its effects just seem to be another way for GW to get as much cash as possible on release while completely ignoring the state of the game and how it affects it. These so called "playtesters" and their "we don't have any control on the fi...

this is perfect, ill post it on the DL forum

I've more than enough tournament (uncomped) experience to tell you how games between HE and DoC will end up if that banner is in the army. They'd be foolish not to use it to either split my army up or tarpit the most important elements I have while I have simply no options. I think its you guys unde...

Skull Cannon is "points efficient" because it can do 2 roles for the price of 1. Does not make it completely broken, it makes it very good in an army that has many very crappy things. Doesn't have to be a deathstar to be a major problem. Just because your DoC, doesn't mean you can't have a...

That's an elf player suggestion repeated ad naseum across the internet the past couple days, that and this "higher level of play" that demon players need to evolve to lest they really be simpletons drooling on themselves unable to counter 50-75% of the opposing army that is practically im...

Its normaly not advised to conclude from ones own inability to the inabilities of others. If you go to a tourney with an army that can have bad match ups, you should perhaps have a plan how to deal with bad match ups or simply accept the fact that you will be crushed with a 0:20 when you are unluck...

think they remain 15 pts while the SM and WL cost 13 pts each now.

Maybe its because every empire player I've seen play the Steam Tank doesn't play it right but I've never had problem defeating it and I don't see how white lions would have trouble opening it up and disposing of it with my Orcs & Goblins - using lots of S5 attacks or S6 (S7 on first turn of comb...

HE were mid tier at worst with the last book, nowhere near bottom tier.
Which tier they sit in now remains to be seen

Again, I don't get what you're talking about at all? What is "DS"? Can you at least be clear in what situation you're talking about? If the Herald charges alone and even if 1 wounds gets through, she loses to 3 Ranks + Banner (and maybe + BSB). If the Herald has a unit with her, the unit a...

DoC counter vs HE 'Deathstar' Herald of Slaanesh with exalted fury and wit stealer sword. Pick her challenges, force the init test and auto wound. Couple hundred points right there...DoC takes DS heroes and core for 1200 point win Game over You really have no idea what you're talking about o; The b...

I have to say I disagree. While the BRB scenarios have their problems, any scenario variation is better than the snoozefest of pitched battle over and over and over... But I digress. I think you could use an anvil unit, but I can't wait to see the results. We use scenarios, a whole lot of them, som...

Agreed.

Skullcrushers are Frenzied and not too hard to bait and flank. Don't take them head on if the math is against it.
Previous book with reroll to hit GW you would mince them with the usual horde of White Lions.

6th ed 40k is a horrible rule system thanks to Matthew Ward wanting things to be "cinematic". https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gOrdOl6xoRc This describes what I'm talking about even though its about Space Hulk, still applies to the general direction GW is taking ...

Yea we don't use rulebook scenarios because they are terrible terrible terrible.

Crown of Command on that mage maybe?

THRILLHELM wrote:Do the juggernauts also have magic attacks?

Yep.
Ensorcelled Weapons and any Daemonic mount (Juggers, Steed of Slaanesh, Daemonic Mount, Palanquin, Disc of Tzeentch).

Sword of Anti-Heroes Dawnstone The Other Trickster's Shard Enchanted Shield TOTS also makes any attacks by the phoenix force enemy ward save rerolls, always a good idea to have that item on the Anointed. I had initially thought about making mine more of a "cannon ball tank" with the Golde...

Current edition... lets see how the TK fare against DoC :lol: Well, without Beasts of Nurgle and Plaguebearers, I would have difficulty dealing with the 6 sphinx list which I have barely managed to defeat using Greenskins (D6 wounds from the Arachnarok Spider on a single attack, took down 2... x; s...

Doesn't have to be a deathstar to be a major problem.

Not to mention that DoC are an entire army against wich my Forest spirits don't have their saves How about using current army books when talking about rules? o; Also I believe the changes made by certain tournaments (S4 all the time for any wood elf bow, ward saves against magical attacks for fores...

Deamons should just suck it up and learn to deal with trouble and use strategy.. For years being overpowered, now they find something that might make their "smash face" strategy not so great and they cry, cause they don't have so many auto win matchups.. And now the even have 1 matchup wh...

That's the main plan indeed. Get the hang of it with priming and basing and slowly move to a bit more advanced things. Enough youtube tutorials around for ideas at least. Thinning paint is issue #1. Paint needs to be much, much thinner then when painting by brush. Still figuring out the correct thi...

-Sigh- And thats my biggest gripe with this game, its just going back toward how it ended up in 7th edition. Also, Hortennse, I'm sorry but thats just plain ridiculous. -I've dealt with multiple ethereal units with my Greenskins who have no magic attacks other than magic weapons - high elves have mo...

The problem also comes from possible combinations. Imagine Alarielle anywhere near (doesn't have to be inside) that unit - Each and EVERY Daemon unit is hit by D6 S4 every magic phase automatically without escape possible - this will destroy all the chaff thats been trying to speed bump you. Or imag...

O: nice

I really need to start looking into dippin' to make certain projects done quicker ~_~
How do you apply it, by brush? Wipe excess and all?
