No idea how I have missed this. Your Bloodbound look brilliant, and a great start on the "once was a" Brettonnian. Good to see them being put to good use.

That is fantastic! I can't wait for more!

Nice stuff !! It's look great on the table.
Blue body of Bloodthirster - fantastic idea

Hi all,

Just in case anyone was interested I thought I would list my current SCGT Khorne Bloodbound army:

I'm 4/5 wins at the moment, Vs Bretonnia, Tomb Kings, Goblins/Orks, Empire. The one loss was Stormcast.

2 Bloodthirster's of Insensate Rage 24
Daemon Prince 7
Mighty Lord of Khorne 5
2 Bloodsecrator's 12
Blood-stoker 3
3x5 Skullreapers 24
1x Wrathmonger 8
2x20 Bloodreavers 12
2x10 Bloodletters 5 (Summoning Pool) -100 Pool Points

How is everyone else's lists shaping up?

Thanks,

Double Ragethirsters + Double Portals of Skulls???

I used to run with a Hellcannon. After some swapping due to it being a "legacy scroll" I had 18 pool points to play with. That was an easy decision for another Thirster, then some tweaking elsewhere.

Within SCGT, the portal of skulls don't stack, however on a 4x2 I pretty much have an entire army not taking battle-shock and benefiting from the +1 melee attack. Almost a 36" wide bubble. Anything out of that is normally a single character or I can flip Inspiring presence on them.

Here's the next installment from my last match Vs Tomb Kings:

It was my first time playing TK under AoS/SCGT. Last time was back in 8th.


My battleline. Off to my right is the bloodreavers and second Thirster.


My battleline


Aerial View.


The chariots advance.


Settra and Lord Vharak Khovar face off. Being in full cover I have a 2+ AS. Unfortunately no reality splitting Axe came off.


Chariots get melted!

Unfortunately that's all I took. It was a fun battle, relatively convincing for myself. It was my opponents first game under SCGT.

amazeballs as usual luvvo.
what are your thoughts on the wrathmongers and skullreapers? ive been thinking of adding some but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Awesome pics.

Skullreaper's and Wrathmonger's are the mainstay of my army. Can't argue for having them more!!! A bloodstoker re-rolls though's wound rolls of one so you can almost guarantee daemon-forged blades causing additional mortal wounds on 6's and not taking damage back on the 1's.

If you can get the Reapers in against a squishe unit first you can rack up the kill count and then re-roll hits and wounds. Which is amazing, as you are 3+ to hit 3+ to wound, Re-rolling. PLus re-rolling 1's on the charge. Gorelord them and thats a 3D6 charge as well.

My Wrathmonger's in that game, made Settra and the Spyhnx hit themselves. So I can't argue against that!

I did a recent conversion on my Bloodwarrior's to Wrathmonger's which I can share, as I wanted to save some money with the amount of spare bits I have.


I have loads of info but at work so rushing at the moment!

Here's the converted Bloodwarrior's to Wrathmonger's.

Very simple, but great for me as otherwise these models would sit at home on the shelf. Also saves me £35 on a new box! If only Bitz sites had the spares I could have made another 15 Skullreaper's/Wrathmonger's.

So much eye candy in this thread already. Your battle shots just look all kind of epic with the big long line of Bloodbound. Your diorama on the forest base is such an excellent idea and the painting is top notch! Keep in coming, man!

Found some pictures from two other games.

Seems I only had the one each, but interesting shots.


First match my Bloodthirster died to mortal wounds.

WIP on my Bloodwarrior conversion to Wrathmonger's.




Thanks,

looking good luvvo. the conversion turned out well.

Thanks dude, they look a little monotone in the picture so I may look at more highlights on the gold. Gehena's then runefang maybe.

Can definitely make the eyes pop more as well.

Hi all,

I've been working on my Bretonnian list. After a few test games they felt really lack luster, and/or to expensive for their capabilities.

As such I think I may have found something that is fluffy, but could still work on the tabletop. Let me know what you think.

Louencouer
Fey Enchantress
Paladin Standard Bearer
Damsel of the Lady
40 Knights of the Realm

100 Pool points under SCGT.

Using everything in conjunction at a *maximum potential can create a lovely charging deathstar.

Under this scenario, assuming all are in range to attack and have charged. Inclusive of these hero abilities/spells:

FE: If that unit is Nobility, you can add 2 to all these hit rolls instead.
FE: Mystic Shield
Aura of the Lady: In your hero phase, select the Damsel or a Free People model within 6"" of her; that model heals one wound. Supreme Aura of the Lady: In your hero phase, select the Fay Enchantress or a Free People model within 6"" of her; that model heals D3 wounds."
LL: Do not take battleshock
DoTL: If successfully cast on a 5, within 16" whenever , when that unit suffers a wound or mortal wound. Add 1 to that roll if the unit is Nobility. On a 6 or more, that wound is ignored.

So that's...

40 Knights (1 Gallant) 81 attacks @ 2 Damage, no rend, 2+/3+ to hit and wound. Saves of 2+/5+
40 Chargers 80 attacks @ 1 Damage, no rend, 2+/4+ to hit and wound.

Failed Attacks Successful Attacks Succesful Wounds Enemy Save Rolls (*4+) Potential Damage Output
14 68 45 23 45
13 67 33 17 17
Sub-Totals:27 134 78 39 62

I would then retreat in subsequent rounds with a 10" retreat move, and re-charge to maintain the bonus'. Scenario dependent. But if I win priority it might be more beneficial for me to do so.

Thanks,

Afternoon all.

Played another match yesterday, Vs Skaven this time. It was composed of, what I can only describe as an Elitist - Shooty army bar, a Verminlord and Hellpit. I'll see if you can call out the units, there were a lot of interesting conversions in his list!

I'll let the pictures tell the story though! Enjoy.


Deployment after my initial move and run.


Angle 2.


Angle 3


Surprisingly he actually moved forward. Was not expecting that.


Angle 2. I was trying to rush for the cover to get what saves I could against the shooting.


Won priority on Turn 2, but still lost a lot to his first shooting round. Ouch Bloodthirster's!


Khorne does, what Khorne does best. My Insensate Ragethirster swings first, and causes 3 mortal wounds on enemy units in an 8" bubble after wounding on x3 6's. Shame that doesn't stack!

He was unaware of the Wrathmonger's abilities, so piled in with the Verminlord who then hit and killed himself, after taking the mortal wounds from the Ragethirster.


More shooting thins me out...


Closing the gap.


Skaven last stand.


I pulled off the win. but I was super anxious about all those shooting attacks.

Taking me to 6/7 wins now. I'm hoping to get a rematch with the Stormcast player as my list has change fairly significantly and i think i can take it.

Thanks for taking a look.

Luvvo.

That Skaven army: HOLY. FAKK.

(As in the modeling is stupendous; actual composition a bit high on the douche, and as you say, not very interested in engaging in the game. Filthy rats )

Doublethirster continues to be pretty nifty (and dead killy)

- Salvage

Thanks for stopping by Salvage.

It was a very interesting Skaven army indeed. Most if not all models were individual in some way, and very nice conversions!

Last time I played them was back in 8th so was a bit of a wake up call for me. Sooooo much shooting, and only the one Mystic Shield

I luvvo your reports.
WHAT is that skaven doomwheel monstrosity?
man id love to see more of that.

Haha thanks username!

I believe that was supposed to be a hell-bit abomination. In fact it definitely was, as it had the 5+ rule it comes back to live!

Unfortunately that's all the snaps I managed to take. I was hoping for a 2vs2 this morning but the guys pulled out. Will keep trying to get some good snaps of matches.

Trying to put some time into my Bretonnian and Death army to vary things up now.

Thanks,

That's an interesting idea luvvo. I don't really like the model for the abomination so that's an idea I may have to think about.

The Star Forged Brettonian's will be rebuilt! In Sigmar's image they will ride the stars and gateways delivering justice, under the code of honour and nobility!

- I'm hoping to work on some more fluff for theses guys!





Another 14 Knights, and these WIPs to go! Will have 40 in total.

Thanks,

I don't know luvvo, that contemptor seems like a little overkill. I don't think your star forged bretonnian opponents will stand a chance

Hahaha! You know what, I may have exceed the fluff there you're right.

In fairness I do know of some Rat ogres with very similar weaponry!

Please excuse the Night Lords, and thirsters, running out of desk space!

Looks like an army that could deliver one hell of a punch, Dreadnought or no! Looking forward to paint!

Are you going to stick with that star pattern?
I wonder how it would look with a white horse? It may make the pattern stand out a bit more.

The Dreadnought is really good! Also really like how the griffon is coming along. Nice job!

Thanks Chaps.

I'm not certain on the horses/ All I know is that when I have tried to get through a regiment of 9+ when in the old school lance formation I almost lost hope when going over each individual horse.

And I have to admit the celestial steed was hella easy and for an ok/decent effect. When it comes to 40 of them I'm leaning towards keeping the same colour scheme. However i could potentially look at character mounts, the Damsels and BSB for example.

@WarbossDakka - I think I have a close up version on my Night Lords plog that's worth a look if you want a close up!

@Paradigm - I truly hope so. The last few games i've play tested against my Khornate army the Bret's have just not been able to stand up against it. This way I have taken the deathstar unit into a deathstar army escalation! Can't wait to get it ready to play with!

Hi all,

New match update for you. This time Vs Vampire Counts/Death. I'm also due to play a really nice Nurgle army tomorrow so will update you on that as well!

Enjoy!


Battle lines are drawn. I'm elected to go first. Khorne advances.


Advance!


Death's view


Death's Advance







Seems I missed a few pictures here, as it goes from a full board to half empty.

Conclusion, I had another victory wiping the whole table.

Thanks!

Good to see two fully painted armies go at each other.

Looks great
