They also had these bases suggested for Flesh hounds in the first "Designer's Commentary on Base Sizes" pdf that they released in Summer and people emailed them about it and they later changed the suggested size to 50mm round for consistency. Thanks! Perfect, more guys to get in base to base, that will work I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you find it frustrating at all? Sometimes, most of the time not so much though, people often look surprised when I put the bloodsecrator to the front of the deployment, but the bloodletters overtake him quickly, with such a high unit mass it hits them 99% of the time.

andysonic1 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 40k Chapter Approved points have leaked and they reveal something exciting for Khorne: Flesh Hounds can now take a Gore Hound in the unit for extra points. This may mean that Flesh Hounds are getting a "leader" in the unit. If you look at the new hounds, one of them does look larger than the others and has a more prominent frill going on. Personally I love summoning Flesh Hound units on mass and if they make them any deadlier I'm game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PUFNSTUF Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 With the prevelance of horde armies do you think the 4 bloodthirster and flesh hounds list can still be competent with that or is it to few bodies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know but that sure looks fun as Hell (pun intended) to play! I’m two Bloodthirsters towards the goal (2/4) and hopefully after Christmas will have the other two. It won against Nagash from my understanding, but it’s also a technical tactical list made for pursuing objectives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUFNSTUF Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Any insights on how it can hold objectives with so few numbers? I get holding with hounds, do you then use the thirsters to kill the contestors? I would see that as being a bit hard if you want to keep the thirsters in range of each others abilities.

Seeing how weak it is in 40k I'm hoping they get something a tad bit stronger, but if they stay the same points and get anything it's a clear win, though an 8 inch ranged shout isn't going to help their summoning potential.

The_Yellow_Sign Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Has anyone had any luck running the Khorne Battalion from Beasts of Chaos in Khorne? Unfortunately Warherd are terrible in Beasts of Chaos due to lack of synergy and the nerf to the Doombull's command ability, so I'm thinking of running them in Khorne.

Kazimer Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Far as I can tell, Bullgors/Doombulls and Beastigors are pretty good in Khorne. They add bodies, and generally speaking are different enough from Warriors and Reavers to reasonably add them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibs Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) Trying to build my first Chaos list so I can work-out what models to get over the Holiday break. Currently don't really own anything and its quite overwhelming getting into a new game system. Saying, that I am one of those people that likes to build the list and then work towards it rather than buy some generic stuff and make it work........just feels better to me and provides and additional incentive to get painting. Units of most appeal: Archaon Mighty Lord of Khorne Khorne Lord on Juggernaught Bloodthirster Varanguard Skullcrushers Slaughter Priest Chaos Warriors Chosen Warriors Can include others....... Obviously, cannot get all that into one list, but would love to have the center piece be Archaon. Keen to get some ideas from more experience players..........it does not need to be a tournament bone breaking list, however its nice to not get tabled every game either haha. p.s. aiming for 2000pts with an option to increase to 2500pts for bigger fun games.

The list is ok though, good screen capacity against deepstrike and holding an enemy Except...No? Bullgors with Great Axes do more damage than equal points of Bloodletters with no buffs, and also have more rend, movement and basically ignore morale. 7 attacks at 4 hit 3 wound on bullgors vs 11 attacks at 4 hit 3 wound on letters...but Bullgors got 3 damage per unsaved wound, and have more rend. Where did you get your math from? *edit I did some more math, and if you gice the Bloodletters the boon of being a unit of 30 and then equal the points by giving Bullgors another 3 models...Its still only a damage difference of 1 wound extra for the Letters. For a giant blob that probably wont make it all into combat, with a weaker save, and less movement.

andysonic1 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Warhammer TV showed off the new warscrolls. No huge changes, but bloodcrusher impact hit is a 2+, Karanak has 6 head attacks, the leader of the Fleshounds has a shooting attack. Unfortunately the bloodletters do a mortal wound on a 6 unmodified (so no stacking prayers), but it is in addition to normal damage. Overall I'm happy. All good and needed changes. Hoping the points on everything didn't radically change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoby Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 The new Khorne battilion. It will have a matched play cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praecautus Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I'll still be getting wrath and rapture but at least there is less pressure to paint a ton of letters now. I like that battalion though, if it is in match play I can see it getting use in combo with pilgrims. I hereby brand it Fetch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Krungharr Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I always loved Flesh Hounds....I might have to get like 4 boxes and sell off the other stuff besides 1 Karanak. Or something like that; a Council of Blood and Murderhost or other Daemon battalion would be really cool to field. I like that Karanak can just summon a unit of hounds without difficulties.

andysonic1 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Bloodletters lose 6+ mortal wounds for unmodified: well maybe slingshotting 30 Bloodletters into the enemy army turn one wasn't a good idea. New battalion slingshots entire battalion into enemy army turn one: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
