Are you going living or buying them? If so, how many?
It's easy to put 3,4 in a Bones list... Are you going to?
We now have acess to:
A Wold heavy, a character heavy, a Wold light, 1 merc solo and 1 minion unit. So it's mosty on Bones since it gets added to free points and in effect makes them 4pts (assuming they come out as 5).
What are you thinking?

*grumble* I really hate how all the interesting WMH discussion has swapped over to CID stuff that I don't know anything about, because I don't have time or opponents to playtest.
What's a Wold Wight? And did Privateer _really_ give us _another_ model that everyone is going to abbreviate as WW?

Wold wight is a speed 6 mat 5 def 13 Arm 15 light with 14 boxes and 1 Pow 10 initial. It's animus lights all models including itself on fire within 2 and it has Fires Fury. While on fire gains Boosted Attack and damage, cannot be knocked down and has +5 Arm from fire damage. It is 5 points and 2 Fury.. it also has shield guard.
I will be buying 2. No more. I don't ever plan on running more than 2.

I'm not sure whether I want to buy into wolds. Bradigus looks the most promising, but I don't know that I want to play him. I'm not sure whether non-brad wolds will fit into my pairing. With the themes dropping soon, I have no idea who the boogeymen are anymore.

Will probably buy 2 of them, can't see myself using more at the moment until I've had plenty of practice.

With the themes dropping soon, I have no idea who the boogeymen are anymore. Baldur 1/2, Tanith, Mohsar, and Krueger 2 all run Bones well especially after the new CiD for wolds drops. I have had a lot of success with Baldur 2 in Bones and I have also had success with tanith and Mohsar in Bones before CiD changes. Its a really solid theme and Wolds are really good with the preposed changes. Bradigus is actually the caster I think will be the least exciting to play in bones of orboros. |

This is exactly what I don't like... I play wolds and living or I don't play wolds... it should be one faction.
The WWights would be awesome as beast themes to take a couple of hits for them... Who wants it the most? Warpwolves or Wolds?

Depends on what is shooting at you. Shadow fire shot? Drag Shot? electro leap gun? Both beast types like a cheap shield guard.
Wolds are going to be great once cid goes through. While I think there are some problems with our mixed themes (secret masters...*shudders*) and the Living beast theme should really allow Megalith as free points for consistency sake. I actually think we will be in an OK place in a few months.

They do but while Wolds bet on resilience to survive Warpwolves bet on DEF which doesn't work very well and Satyrs bet on not being on the table at all... I know I'd like them in Call of the wild to absorb some of the incoming damage.

I'll pick them up because they're wolds, but I'm not going to expect much from them.

I'll probably get 2 to 4 to enable good bones builds and add into the Wild Hunt for additional infantry clearing and shield guard action.

Heavy infantry is kind of threatened by them but they don't have high volume if attacks and thier animus is not super reliable for that IME |

bait an infantry ball with another cheap beast like an argus and they are. In wild hunt I'm looking for cheap beasts that can maximize fury delivery to my caster so that I can fill my list with as much infantry as I can. So what I'm looking for in beasts is cheap utility. I think the wights, combined with arguses, will provide exactly that. I may also be very very wrong. conflictchamber.com/#c8201b_-0q5Beeeejwjwjw5j5j5k4S5s4S5s5ocp4U4WCircle Army - 74 / 75 points [Theme] The Wild Hunt !!! Your army contains CID entries.

This is where Brad will make great use of the wights. Either way I won't be coming back to circle until early 2018 so testing won't happen until then. |

Hmmm when they officially come out I'll test them so more. They might have merit in Wild Hunt. Or even secret masters....hmmmm
Still don't know if I'll buy 4. Maybey 3.
I too am takin a circle break. Protectorate has been a blast to play haha

Kinda want to take 20 of em (proxied, obviousy) with Bradigus just for giggles. I don't think it'd be _good_, particularly, but I kinda want to do it anyways...
