AoS NEW *rumor*

[LizardWizard]

So, Terradons with the Terradon Cheif, A Skink Priest for run and shoot/charge, a Skink Starseer for mws on 6 to wound. Lots of synergy and damage there.

Then FoS for +3" move. That is a hell of an alpha strike.

 

[Nart]

Starpriest's ability affects ranged attacks too. Just think about it for a second...

Yep, it is gonna be fun.

 

[LizardWizard]

Also, Kroxigor are finally good. Not OP, but good.

How would you be able to move all the Terradons over the target in the movement phase from 24" apart? If not, you aren't dropping any bombs.

 

[Lizerd]

Question; for a Knight carnosaur list, would it be better to have 3 star priests or a Slann and a starpriest?

You wouldn't be able to on a 24" seperation battleplan. But half of them are 18". And if we can be low drop to make the opponents go first

40 Boltspitter Skinks with Starpriest + Priest buffs. 4+ save, advance and shoot, 80 attacks with 13.34 MW alone. Now we are talking. Reminds me of my 40x Termagant with Devourers Tyranid list.

 

[IggyStarhost]

weight of numbers ftw.

Also, yaay skink heroes actually get a halfway decent shooting attack so they get to do something from the backline aside from look pretty after casting their 1 buff.

Seriously, do we have a GW member reading our forum, there's so many things in there that've been suggested on here by various members it's getting suspicious.

Also, skink priest + starpriest +stegadon with alpha is gonna be funny to buff up skink units
- get a stegadon with alpha
- Get a skink priest
- get a starpriest:

Cast all the buffs.

You now have a stegadon with:
+1 to all melee attacks
+1 to hit
hit rolls of 6 become mortal wounds
Can run shoot & charge or has a 2+ save in a duel (or 2+ against 1 target and 3+ against everyone else)

That's some fairly amazing synergy, and that's without artifacts, command traits, subfaction bonusses & battalions.

Am I missing something. Isnt the starpriest abilty a MW on the wound roll of a 6?

also the normal priest is a gem! On a 3+ you can give a +1 save. And a CA for a +1 to hit. Target those sallies or razors for some fun!

I would run a Slann and Starpiest.

You are right. MW in addition to normal damage on an unmod wound of 6.

Yeah better Skink buff, deletion of that disastrous jaw penalty, all -1 rend and lower points I believe.

I'm happy.

 

[Acehilator]

Can't Terradons drop their bombs after a charge move?

 

[LizardWizard]

Can't Terradons drop their bombs after a charge move?

Holy shit they can. Just double checked the wording....

So yeah,Terradons are the new bully on the block.

 

[Killer Angel]

Terradons will become our new glass cannon

 

[IggyStarhost]

So for me it will be:

40 skinks 240
10 skinks 60
10 skinks 60
Starpriest 120
Priest 70

3 razors 240
3 sallies 240

9 terradons + chief 340
Stegadon with chief 270

Kroak 320

 

[Acehilator]

Terradon Chief with the additional -1 to hit when the enemy unit can't fly. You might be able him save him for one round to guide a second unit in, lol.

Terradon Chief with the additional -1 to hit when the enemy unit can't fly. You might be able him save him from one round to guide a second unit in, lol.

Just bring two units of 12 and two chiefs on terradon

Scaly skin and the Astrolith also makes us pretty damn durable. Most things in the game base their damage on multiple wounds per attack and we negate that now. Cant wait to see battalions plus constellations.

Yep, Saurus Guard are also gonna be great. Either one with the Serpent's staff will be decent damage. And getting the added durability from Skink Spells.
