Yeah, not sure how to feel about this one. Serenity at least makes them feel fully worth 6 pts, but I really like the THR bump. I guess incentivizing a unit for scoring purposes isn't a horrible thing, though I'd rather have Swamp Gobbers...

For the record, I'm pretty sure Deathstalkers are in Ravens of War. They are, but I'm both not interested in Ravens and interested in lists specifically with both Hellmouths and Deathstalkers in them.

I'm curious to see what non-theme (i.e., Hellmouth and Deathstalker) lists people have been enjoying/finding success with. Feel free to post below.

Very hard to pick. Doomshaper2 was always a favorite (even when I abandoned him for Runes in MKII), and played him a ton since MKIII. After CID, leaning toward Madrak1 and Grissel2.

I disagree with the assessment about Grim2 into Dark Host. As far as I can tell without consulting War Room, you have exactly 1 magical gun. If they're playing double Wraith Engine in Dark Host they get to entirely engage on their own terms. There's always the time-honored incorp removal of Spirit Chaser. That was most of what we had in the bad old days of Cryx match ups.

Some rules I heard were:
- Attacks made from more than 8" away suffer -2 to attack rolls. - When models are knocked down, their DEF does not become 5 when being targeted by range and magic. Ranged and magic ttacks made from more than 0.5" away must still hit the full DEF of the target. Additionally, models that are targeted by ranged or magic attacks from more than 0.5" away while knocked down benefit from cover. - Models with immunity to certain damage types take one less die of damage from the damage type rather than no damage. - Models with CRA get +1 for each other model with CRA and that is within 1" of the attacking model (I believe this only applies to models in their "unit", but not cetain). - Abilities like Prey, mini-feats, Prayers and the like will only affect models within" X radius of whichever model performs the ability. - If you bring a warbeast, your commander gains the Beast Warden ability. I believe they perform "drives" like those of jack marshals, as well as can be "driven" to use their animus.

Played a game of it and the scenario I played was similar is layout to Incursion (201X-2016 Steamroller scenario), with an 50mm, undamageable, untargetable model (positioned like the left and right flags in incursion) and a flag in the middle. A player scored a point for each scenario piece that they had a model in base with and that was not being contested (enemy model within 4"). Don't recall how many points were required for victory, as the game ended due to just about everything on one players team being destroyed. Very fun.

GK currently benefits from Veteran Lead on the Hooch Hauler.

Exciting stuff. Free upkeeps with the theme force? Hello Jarl and Horgle2. KSB *action... 'bout time! Also stoked that enemies models don't need to be in +cold damage aura to be effected (feared that). And those bears are (currently) bonkers for their cost. Imagine that'll change, but boy, this' all seems angled in the right direction atm.

If only deafen worked that way, how much sweeter it would be.

That's unfortunate. I got the Trollbloods box when they first came out and everything fit together great. The Impaler had some annoying mold lines, but that may never matter.

Sure doesn't. Both Warroom and the Card Database are displaying 38 boxes.

So goooood. Excited to see what madness ADR offers the ladies. While Calandra can be paired with any other caster well enough, good pairings at a glance seem like Doomshaper + Grissel2 and Ragnor and Calandra.
