No huge rush, next few months. The general consensus (and intention I think) is that the army is a little underpowered. It has a few fairly potent units (the jotuun is pretty sweet) but overall probably compares poorly to a well made WDG list. Strengths of the army are similar to Beastmen. Solid core combat units. Stronger then average monsters. Decent access to Ambush. Weaknesses are low toughness, low peak damage output (though solid consistent output), low armor. The army also has a severe issue with mitigating chaff. Minimal range weapons and only access to chariots is characters.

T9A Portland/Vancouver Meetup thread
Zeev replied to TheBeninator's topic in Fantasy Battles (9th Age, WFB, etc.)
I am a little north of Seattle. From my experience the best stores would be Games and Gizmos in Kirkland or if a little more north is ok Mugu Games in Everett. I've heard good things about Heroic Knight games in Issaquah but havent been there myself. Most of the stores in Seattle proper are either too small or cater heavily towards MTG. -

KoW seems to have won out here in Seattle my efforts to string together some kind of community have all met with failure. I would be glad to get some kind of event together I just need to find a store to host it lol -
Curiousity... Orcs with shields?
Zeev replied to Grensche's topic in Fantasy Battles (9th Age, WFB, etc.)
Mathed out the only units core orcs beat, point for point, are undead and dread elf spears. That actually gets worse when using sword and board...then you only beat the undead. It also takes 9 rounds of combat to do so on average... -

Zeev replied to Grensche's topic in Fantasy Battles (9th Age, WFB, etc.)
Yeah ORCS are already way below the curve on damage output. Go for spears or paired weapons. Shields are for goblins...they get maximum use out of it with their poor output and terrible ws -
Congrats to everyone! Don't worry Kacy I will take home that bottle opener next year! Great games everyone! PS: I am sorry I stole your goblin wolf Sherbert

Hey guys! My lodging plans for OFCC have fallen through due to My friends deciding not to attend. Anybody got some spare space on their hotel room floor or home couch for me to crash on?

I can play ya. -
Indeed you no longer need standards to be scoring...just the scoring rule.
-
The advantage of bound spells is that you can take a lot of them and their cast values are low enough to be safely 2 diced. Also you can take the same spell more then once. As the casting player you always have the advantage in terms of number of dice and you set the pace for the phase. This is far more noticeable in a bound spell based phase where you may be throwing 4 or more spells. Your opponent cant risk failing even one dispel so their unlikely to throw less dice then you even with their dispel bonuses. A bound spell magic phase can simply overpower your opponent in spells and dwarves are already an upper tier combat army so even one bound spell can tip fights in their favor.
-
I agree on Organ guns. Cannons do one thing and do it really well. They kill monsters. Dwarves actually kinda struggle against the stompy bastards if their artillery doesn't do the job.
-
Of drop the champs and standards from the marksmen units...they don't do anything for you really. Use the points from that and dropping the flame cannon to kit put your characters
-
Miners with pistols are fantastic...as are tooled out slayer characters...especially for monster hunting. Lord with shield bearers in Iron breakers is a unit that simply doesn't budge. I like organ guns for warmachines...possibly catapults or bolt throwers as well. Cannons only really pay off when facing more then 2 monsters and you have other means of dealinh with that problem.
