Beast Herd project moving along again, as I finished 12 Razortusks this week. After having some rough motivation difficulties with the DE it was fun to get back to BH and paint the big Pigs. The Toracx models I picked from Mierce Miniatures were also…

Ultimately any support is better than no support. They're going to put out some army books which will undoubtedly have some nice art, some new lore, and some okay rules. They're going to put some models back into production that people still want. No…

Quote from Wesser: “Quote from NorCal Crass: “6 games so far with all goblin lists. Thinking that I’m going to stop playing games with Neophytes as currently there is no way they avoid a nerf. I’d like to see that nerf come from them going down a…

My suggestion: Don´t simplify. Don´t cut out beloved units. Wolfs. Spiders. Makes no sense. Keep the new ideas. Like Cunning, rivalry, masqouts and the neophytes that can appear behind the lines. But please, don´t simplify, and gives us back the…

was "shields baseline" ever a consideration? With Crude Weapons, they dont benefit from parry anyway (cant pick Hand weapons in first Round of Combat), and a 6+ armor when picking spears doesnt seem too amazing. Id argue they could even stay at 8 points…

I’m sure I’m coming way late to this party, but why no riders on Gnasher dashers? And skirmishing seems to make them a pretty big footprint. Light troops would have been fine. I loved what they used to be.

What is the point of shields on Feral orcs? I get a 6+ save against ranged and what else? The models have other weapons so the can't chose to use hand weapon and shield combo and they aren't weapon masters so they can't revert the shields once their…

Quote from Gingersmali: “Quote from BrOti: “Quote from Peacemaker: “I like the minimized. I would like some kind of way to get fearless(banner) on at least one unit. Or like others suggested about goblins being insignificant to Tribe Leader. Maybe a…

Like you say, core now forces towards horde playstyle. The discussion is, why is 9th Age forcing stuff into a mold so hard; its not compelling. And I fundamentally disagree with shoehorning complexity budget. Its done from a flawed perspective. It…

In old book I used the iron orc general (on foot), partly because I have a great model for him, and partly because he made a unit of iron orcs stubborn via bodyguard. The unit seldom really needed him for combat. Now iron orcs are stubborn without him.…

Quote from Frank76: “Quote from jel: “Anyone have thoughts on Big Wing? Have we all just gotten so used to it being terrible and unplayable that we expected the same? I was kind of hoping it would be impactful, even if it means costing points. ” Of…

The old insignificance hierarchy meant that you could put your battle line together to avoid some of the issues. Would it be so bad to put it back? The idea of orcs panicking because a goblin chaff unit dies is just annoying. Where you have a mechanic to…

I like the minimized. I would like some kind of way to get fearless(banner) on at least one unit. Or like others suggested about goblins being insignificant to Tribe Leader. Maybe a banner that makes all other units insignificant for that unit. Lots…

Quote from arwaker: “Assuming Orcs REALLY show up as underperforming, and also assuming that there is a wide common consensus about that being related to their "low" chance to pass panic / break tests, would it then be a mechanical possibility to enhance…

Well what about Elder? Or something akin to that. Loners are, after all, usually quite old by Orc standards.

Okay finished my 3rd game and it was a very fun rout. 1-19. Map B6 plus dawn assault is MURDER on a wide army. Overall feelings. I have lots of tools get into combat and to pressure my opponent to push. Playing wide is fun (comments below) and I can put…
