Can the DoomBull, GoreBull both have chaos gift gnarled hide?

RB

Do you mean can both have it in the same list or is it a legal option for either of them?

1) Can both have it in the same list? That depends on what the wording for the gifts is. If it doesn't say something to the effect of "Gifts may not be duplicated" then they can both have it, assuming the Gorebull can afford a gift that costs that many points.

2) Can a Gorebull have Gnarled Hide(Doombull most assuredly) Well, that depends on if his point allowance is big enough.

Chaos gifts cannot be repeated. You'll find the wording for it under the chaos gift section of the Beastman army book.

And yes, both Doombull and Gorebulls can afford to take gnarled hide, just not at the same time. It's only a 15 pt item

Though technically neither will end up with it, because it should be on your wargor BSB However I guess if your gorebull is the BSB then he might get to enjoy what is easily the best gift of chaos in the game (coming in right before bloodcurdling roar IMO)

Give it to your Doombull in fact:
Doombull
-Gnarled Hide
-Heavy Armor
-Shield
-Dawnstone
-Ramhorn Helm
-Sword of Swift Slaying
-The Other Trickster's Shard

Best build out there. I5 so ASF sword generally means rerolls. A 1+ rerollable armor save, and ramhorm means every wound that is saved by the armor save is an extra attack, which also gets the ASF reroll if target is I5 or lower. The only thing that sucks is no ward save.

Top Tip: do not have this doombull in a unit when he enters combat. That's one hell of a slick trick, but if he's running with a bunch of T4 6+ armor minos you know that nobody is going to fight the 1+ ramhorn if at all possible. However if the doombull is soloing, the enemy has no choice but to hasten their demise

Top Top Tip.
Have the Doom Bull joined by the Gor Bull BSB, and deploy the unit 1 wide.
Yeah, doom bull in front, gorebull in the 2nd rank.
Give gore bull the stubborn crown.
Now you got +1 combat res, supporting attacks, stubborn, and re-roll to break tests if by some miracle you lose combat.
Don't forget to make your supporting attacks with the BSB too!

-Matt

You have to have a complete rank to get +1 combat resolution. Conga lines don't get you rank bonuses.

I think the +1 is from the BSB's banner.

Right, nevermind

This is super high praise from Boss...

Also this gives me a question for YMDC.
