Im iffy taking the engine of the gods without any other magic to back him up, but this unit has been fantastic for me so far. I love the 5+ ward against shooting to get me close, and then when I do the nuke on it has wrecked a ton of units. I have never taken an Oldblood on foot before, but with this set up he is going to have a 0+ AS on the front, and in the temple guard going to be a nasty unit to get into combat with that is for sure. The chameleon skinks are there to harass like always. Give the enemy something to think about.
 
Your old blood can get an even lower AS if you plop him on a cold one, and he can still go in the Tample guard unit.
 
Yah but then there is always a chance that he will be stupid. Had the dummbest game today, Scar vet in a unit of 15 spears stupid on turn 1 with Slan Leadership 9 and misscasted 4 times that game.
 
Ouch, I think in all the time I've played I rolled stupid maybe twice
 
lol, that IS a stupid lizard :D If it was a friendly game, it must have been great fun though.. at least for you opponent ;)

Look at it this way... You have had your bad luck now. Chances are that it wont happen again for a while! ;)
 
Does a magic hand wep count towards the parry bonus?
 
hand weopon shield bonus, no.

If you can reliably miscast, you should bring along "Cupped hands of the Old Ones" and put that miscast on the enemy!

Maybe you should base your strategy on failing. Try to 'fail' and you fail to do that, meaning you win, when you try to lose.

Statisctically, yes. The actual probability remains the same, however. His chances are the same at any given time, no matter how many times the event has occured previously ;)
