I have a game Saturday, 4/11 in the RPG room against Wood Elves. 12pm to 3pm. There is a 40k doubles tournament so I rented RPG room to have a table. Swing by have a look I am sure Dice Age would like some Old World faces in there.

What are you going to do for beastmen? Do you have models socked away or are you hoping for the new releases or what?
Personally, I am starting an escalation league at the end of the month and I am planning on printing my army... MyMiniFactory users Beastarium and Claybeast have some really nice models that I am going to be using. Was just finishing my shopping list up, as a matter of fact.
I have a good amount of Beastmen(most painted by Scott Shoemaker) I have printed minotaur and the large giant monsters I got from mierce miniatures. It's a sizable force maybe 2500+ pts
I'll have to check those mymini creators out.

I hear ya. Congrats on hitting 1500! How many points you got total?
Around 3000 or so. I have had these models for about 20 years, I will paint to 2000pt army then move to Legions Imperialis get that army painted. Then back to old world and beastmen.

Rule look up can be painful. Books are not organized very well.

Why not for the archer....with the rules, that means he hits on 4+ each shot...
True, just don't think for me its worth extra 5 points per unit. I'll try it 1 more time but don't think shooting was overly damaging. We will see.

The result was a win, but only because I managed to win combat by 1 on two different combats. And my brother rolled over his leadership of a 8 and his knights a 9. Ran them down.
Magic is needed but not end all be all of the game. Anything that modifies leadership is powerful, my brother knights lost combat because I won by 1 and the Bone Giant causes terror so he had to make break test at -1 leadership. He had rolled a 9 but needed an 8 because terror modifies leadership. Ranged fire is ok but did very little damage overall. War machines on the other hand ouch, I got grape shot to the face and lost 8 skeletons haha. Oh and rulebook is crap to look stuff up quickly, best make cheat sheets for your universal special rules and stat cards. I am going to print some off that someone made ie 40k data card style. In the end its fantasy and its still fun. And the skeleton archer champion has a BS of 3 pointless for the most part not worth the points.

Do you know the lists yet? How many points?
1500 points, I do have a list. Since I am playing my brother we are cool for being 1 point over. I think his list is 3 points over.

I think some are saying they could use it to get around Impetuous so it’s less about marching for distance as a work around for a rule that is inconvenient. And I’m saying that as an O&G player where most of my units have this rule. I understand I’ll accept how ever this keyword is ruled by GW but I already have to work around this as my wolfriders have impetuous but also Feint Flee so you want to temp units to charge you but doing so you risk just having them charge that unit you’re trying to avoid. It’s just a risk management issue and they don’t have Drilled.
The unknown factor is play tested so I can see how Drilled wouldn’t prevent them just charging in because that’s a risk you take when you purchase them and that unknown factor is part of their unit cost. If you think impetuous is bad you didn’t play Orcs with Animosity rules in previous additions. At least you charge in to get in the mix instead of beating your own guys or just stand there open to get charged on your opponent’s turn. That’s a game changing event that costed me many games.
But I hear the argument, I just don’t feel sympathy if your knights charge in. That’s the risk you have to manage and plan for. It was play tested and is there for balance. Just my opinion.
Sorry, forgot this discussion started about impetuous. To be clear I am also on the side of Drilled troops and reforming before a charge. Now I'll go back and look though impetuous. But a gut reaction, is if your in marching column your still impetuous regardless you can execute a charge.

I had to laugh when I watched this video and its conclusion was we just don’t know. Work it out with your opponent.
Exactly. I don't see this being a huge issue. If your close enough to charge your mostly likely close enough to be charged. In that case you best not be in a matching column.
-
This drilled and charging thing needs to be addressed by GW. Until then best work that out with the person across the table from you.

I think list building is a lot more fun then other editions.

I'm good with TOW. I am simple that way.

I have been working to finish my army I have had 1/2 painted since TK first came out( 21 years ago). A week of being snowed in and not slacking since has got me 83 models to 95% complete state.

Beastmen vs Wood Elves
in Fantasy Battles (9th Age, WFB, etc.)
Posted
Beastmen lost 1200 to 600, rounded up because I can't remember exact points.
Take aways,
Razorgors are a hoot, their LD is the weakness to them but mean.
Gorgon is a beatstick. He took 3 turns of shooting and spells without a wound. T6 is hard to deal with sometimes.
Skimishing and Horde USR is interesting. You can't gain rank bonus with skirmishes but horde always let you claim 1. So we played it as no matter how many ranks I had I could claim 1 as long as I had models for the rank. Would like your guys thoughts.
I could not finish units got tree man caster and spell singer to 1 wound each and could not catch a break.
Fun army, but with so many USR rules I don't feel I would take them to a tournament. I like simpler armies for events. This won't stop me from painting and finishing army and playing it. But tournament no thank I am not that good of a player.
