About this deal

This Daughters of Khaine battleforce is literally a bit of a mixed bag. There’s a bit of everything going on, which is either a good think of bad thing depending on what you’re looking for. The value of this one is going to be in the eye of the beholder. Planning a DoK specialist army? probably not for you. Prefer a generalist force? This could well be the foundation you’re after.

Gloomspite Gitz - Wahapedia Gloomspite Gitz - Wahapedia

The Prince of Decay has reaped a heavy toll on the Galaspar system, his brutality astounding even the Imperium. French readers can soon discover how two of his brothers attempt to hold him accountable for his excessive actions in Mortarion: The Pale King . What the bad moon does is provide a benefit to any unit under its light, which means wholly within the large quarter that the moon is occupying, or the entire board if it’s in the centre. The new plastic Curseling was originally available in the Arcane Cataclysm boxed set, facing down the learned Lumineth. They arrive solo next week – or at least as solo as this mighty warrior-wizard can be, given the spell-slinging Tretchlet that sprouts from their side. Scinari EnlightenerKragnos gets reprinted here and remains Kragnos. He loves to charge in nice and early with some other big scary melee threats to take advantage of his 3d6” charge aura, and the newly juiced up squigs should suit this purpose nicely if you’re Kragnos-inclined. Four, including the now ubiquitous ‘have ever battle tactic you complete be from your faction list’. Protect da Shrine! Could potentially see some use, requiring you to have no enemy models within 12” of the Loonshrine at the end of the game, and for it to have not been smashed to rubble. Superior Spell-flinger has a Tzeentchy flair and asks you to have two of the Gitz endless spells on the battlefield when the game ends. You don’t have as much control of that as you might like, but the Scuttletide at least can be quite difficult to dispel. Thanks to Warhammer Community we know there are seven new Battleforces for Age of Sigmar! This is huge because starting in 2016, there were only eight battleforces altogether for both AoS and Warhammer 40k total! Grimscuttle is a total rewrite from the old White Dwarf rules and feels like it still doesn’t quite get there for what is one of the weaker standalone parts of the army. This now lets you deploy up to two spiderfang units off the board with each skitterstrand that you have already deployed in ambush from beyond – bringing all the units on together when the skitterstrand deploys onto the board. It’s certainly an interesting way to keep some of your units safe from early alpha strikes, but can leave you at the mercy of multiple 9” charges. Battalions Troggs have the Glowy Howzit , a mighty 4+ ward artefact that gets turned off if you roll a 1 after taking damage that isn’t negated, and the Pet Gribbly which gives +1 wound and then +1 to hit and wound if you roll a 1 after taking damage that isn’t negated.

Moonclan units get Frothing Zealots for everyone’s favourite 4+ rally and Lunar Squigs still provides the excellent ability to run and charge for squigs. Spiderfang Venom upgrades the spider venom of your spiderfang units to trigger on an unmodified 5+, and Moonlit Hide is your trogg buff for +1 to save rolls. For now, though, it is hard to know sure what the overall pricing of all the new Battleforces will be in 2022, as traditionally, Games Workshop revealed them around the middle of November (except this year and in 2018).Instead of making a brewing roll, roll a dice. On a 1, the Fungus Brew immediately fails. On a 2+, double your concoction score. The Sylvaneth wage war against the enemies of nature, but none are so cruel in their hunts as the Outcasts. These spirits are commanded by the monstrous Drycha Hamadreth , who is joined by 28 other miniatures hungry for the blood of those who transgress against Alarielle. Curseling, Eye of Tzeentch

Battleforce: Gloomspite Gitz – Stampeding Squigalanche

Loonshrines can Garrison up to 30 grots. This is a really nice change, as it makes the horde army style of Gloomspites benefit from their terrain. Of course, this is a little hurt by faction terrain changes in general, but it is nice. I’m not going to mince words, this box is…bad. It’s going to try and pull you in with the Stormdrake, and hey even the Hammer Annihilators are actually pretty good. Don’t be fooled. During deployment, instead of setting up this unit on the battlefield, you can place it to one side and say that it is set up hidden as a reserve unit. You can set up 1 unit hidden in this manner for each friendly MOONCLAN GROT unit consisting of 5 or more models that is on the battlefield and that does not have the SQUIG or FANATIC keyword. Daughters Of Khaine Battleforce 2022 // Warhammer Age Of Sigmar Shop Warhammer Age Of Sigmar @ Store.OnTableTopOverall, this is a good year for boxes. A whopping 7 and I think of all of them only one is truly, laughably bad (Stormcast). Most are good for people starting out, for a New Year New Army challenge, with very little filler that will get left on the shelf. Break out the marshmallows – the Horns of Hashut are coming. This warband was first available in Warcry: Heart of Ghur and comprises 10 miniatures, including Ruinators, Demolishers – one of whom is armed with the deadly Flamehurler – and Shatterers. They’re also usable in Slaves to Darkness armies for Warhammer Age of Sigmar.** Rotmire Creed

This Sylvaneth Battleforce might actually be a contender for easiest to paint. You get Drycha Hamadrath stomping into battle alongside two Treelords (they can be the Spirit Of Durthu or a Treelord Ancient). There are also ten Spite-Revenants (Tree-Revenants) and sixteen Sylvaneth Dryads. Rush forward and drown your foes under an avalanche of spiked roots and rage.

Leader

To sum it up, if you’re looking to get into the army totally from scratch this is a perfectly fine box for laying the foundation of a bigger force. It pairs well with a vanguard box, but established players probably already have all the good stuff here. Orruk Warclans The flesh is weak, which is the perfect excuse to upgrade your MKVI Tactical Space Marines with a range of cold, hard, cog-toothed Iron Hands upgrades. Games Workshop has also been showcasing their upcoming set of 2022 Battleforces for those wanting to explore the Fantasy wargaming of The Mortal Realms and Warhammer Age Of Sigmar. There are a mountain of warscrolls here, so this isn’t an exhaustive list of everything in the book and everything that’s changed. Heroes For those of you with a spiderfang general, Spider Riders can be battleline and certainly exist. A bit more exciting is the Arachnarok Spider with Spiderfang Warparty , giving the faction its sole ability to monster mash if you’re that way inclined. No longer relegated to being the worst big spider but it’s battleline I guess, the warparty now counts as 10 models for contesting objectives which is really good! Behemoth
