If you are big into Necrons - Lizards could play in a similar way. Cold blooded will keep units from breaking - skinks are cheap, sauruses are tough and Slann have their own magical tricks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813265.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813265.page GMT Re:Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813271.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813271.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813308.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813308.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do?

Then if you can wait tomb kings new army book is on the way. Otherwise beastmen got theirs early this year. Possibly ogre kingdoms getting an update next year.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813326.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813326.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813389.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813389.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do?

Tomb Kings wouldn't be as similar as you would think, for one primary reason.

Magic Phase.

It's unlike anything in 40k, and Tomb Kinds are practically built around that one phase, it's where they do some truly ridiculous stuff.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813425.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813425.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? GW website and they seem like a lot of fun. Good extra aggressive play style. Check the swap shop if you're looking for Necrons and have Beastmen!

Have fun starting your Warherd. Beastmen are very rewarding and the army has a great individuality. Plus a variety of ways to field a force. Its not the best army book ever with some of the magic gear and unit points costs. But a great step in the right direction. Plus the new main rulebook common magic items helps a lot.

Gors are an often overlooked core choice ( at least with the few beastmen players I Know. ). Though with 8th edition ungors got a little more useful in raider missile screens and big blocks with spear/shield at 6 points a piece and cheap command. Lore of beasts is also amazing for beastmen in the magic phase. Plus minotaurs are always solid performers. Chariots are also good. Oh and if you take harpies dont buy them from games workshop. Buy 2 sets of harpy wings from the bitz section and put them on some daemonettes. It looks alot better and is a damn sight cheaper. Plus requires minimal converting for a good model. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813963.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1813963.page GMT Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1814018.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1814018.page GMT Re:Looking to get into WHFB what do I do? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1814107.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/309751/1814107.page GMT
