  1. As for Tzeentch, the god of magic should have access to all magic lores anyway IMHO.
  2. Ah, I think I see where we are differing. Followers of chaos do promote death and suffering as a part of their worship. In my opinion, the followers see death as the eventual goal to be achieved through the spread of disease, where to papa himself, death is often just am unavoidable side affect. Also, you are using a very human centric vision of what life forms are valued. A twisted, deadly form of a microbe may be something you, and most humans, do not value, but on a purely scientific level, not much difference between us in the grand scheme of things. We are born, we consume, we kill, reproduce, then die. You value one type life more, because of your natural biases. You could argue that Nurgle values life even more than humans as he is constantly trying to create more diverse types of life. Just because they are microscopic, doesn't mean they have less value as living creatures on a cosmic level.
  3. This seems to be a common idea, but if you read the Nurgle fluff in the book, you will see that Nurgle reveres both life and death equally.
  4. The Black Sheep will be there. Well, some of us anyway.
  5. Have to disagree. Chaos is life. Order is death. Also, t6-8 plaguebearers are more deadly than t8 Saurus warriors with an armor save and potential ward? This army gets destroyed by armor, sniped by cannons, and overwhelmed by hordes. My damage output is highly inconsistent. I think a 4 is super high for this list for many of the reasons I have stated above.
  6. If I had time to paint and money to buy models, yeah, I could go a different route. But as is, I gotta go with what I have. I was originally planning on bringing Warriors, but can't as one of my teammates is running them. As for lores, life fits in thematically better with Nurgle and Tzeentch than life or death. The bearers will rarely be t8 as that would take up two spell slots on a level 3 and it isn't really worth it IMHO. As I said before, I got beat by two different armies of opposite power levels. The list is way more toned down than the ones I normally run, and would need some lucky swings to go 3-2. As for Herozero' suggestion, losing a banner would be horrible, One cannon to lord of change during a b&g game and I am done. Also, I don't care for flamers really so don't run them often. And I don't own a chariot. Finally, as for fluff and power, the different forces do work reluctantly for shared goals. My general doesn't work for most of my army and my unit that needs BSB the most doesn't benefit from it. Calling it high powered is a bit of an over-reaction as I am missing most op daemon units other than the beasts, and one unit of three of those is hardly amazing. As for the truth sayer. He will be painted up as a chaos seeker and understands that Tzeentch and Nurgle are true gods of life.
  7. He has found the truth, and that is the will and the word of the great changer.
  8. So far I have played with it twice. I lost both games and it was close both times. The two armies were Warriors and Khemri. I am still learning how to play as it is definitely different than my standard grind you down armies.

  16. Tabletop Day is tomorrow. I will be down at Borderlands games all day demoing Settlers of Catan and Castle Panic. There will be a ton of other games being played as well so come on down and play some games you know or learn some new ones. Event runs from 11-8. Hope to see you there.
  17. No one posted a "faqs are updated" prank yesterday. I don't know whether I am proud of you guys or ashamed.
