Bits

[MorGrendel]

Jason, did I give you my Rat Ogre bits? Given my recent realization about Bonebreakers, think I might have to build some.

[Berserker]

What's your recent realization about bonebreakers?

They're monstrous beasts.

[Berserker]

What improvement is that over what he thought they were originally? What did you think they were originally?

[MorGrendel]

They make my hero a point tougher. I've preferred warlitters for the points, but maybe bonebreakers are worth the T boost.

Keep in mind, that makes them targetable even within a unit since you have to be on the same size base to benefit from look out sir. That said, a warlitter does the same thing, so yeah, I'd go for it. I'm looking forward to my next game with Jason to see how an Eagle Prince works out.

[Berserker]

Ah right. And 5 attacks at strength 5, with weapon skill 4 is awesome! I think your mount is better then your warlord. Oh and you get stomp and swiftstride with that ogre.

And since it's a mount, and not a monster, the armor of the warlord counts for the model.

I would give that warlord the 10pt shield for 2+ armor save, the 60 pt Sword of Bloodshed for +3 attacks, and either the 5+ ward save (30 pts), or the 6+ ward save (15pts) and poisoned attacks.

Now you have a T5, 2+armor, 5(6+) ward save general with 7 attacks (potentially poisoned) at ST4, 5 attacks at ST5, a stomp and swiftstride. That's a very killey and also quite defensive build.

Heck, if you want even more survivability, give him a 4+ ward instead and the warlock weapon for a +1ST, +1 Attack. Uber-suviver and still very very killey.

Oh, and the best part, that whole general is only 255 Pts. Cheap! Maybe bring 2 them (decked out similarly) and make a crack team of death. mmmmm, i love it!

Actually, Warlitter counts as infantry, and I get a look out sir. I guess they figure the Stormvermin drop the litter when a cannon is aimed at them. :) Its one of the main reasons I took it over the Bonebreaker. However, now I'm having a hard time even figuring out why, as everyone who can, shoots the bell.

The more I think on it to, the more I realize it would be a great mulder converversion . . . two bodies stitched together! Where are some skaven i can cut up! It's like a mini Hellpit when fielded by itself. I'm just relooking at my magic items now, and finally see a use for World's Edge Armor. 4+Armor, negates one wound and is destroyed if a wound negates the save; so that's two cannon shots to destroy him. Very Interesting!

Very interesting. I like it.

I think I have some rat ogre's somewhere. I would have to look. I think it would be awesome if you did a completely mechanical rat ogre for your guy to ride on.

Yeah, but I seem to be having a mental block on that. Probably just need to pick up some polystyrene and stare at it for a while.

[Titus]

Should be staring at some plastic card.
