Yuri Vybornov: In my list, I tried to combine all the best options Idoneth have – excluding sharks, which became a popular trend since the last Battlescroll, but will soon disappear again. Also, shark spam, in my opinion, isn’t the most thrilling way to play Idoneth and has some obvious weaknesses. So I decided to try a list of combined arms – my favourite type of list. Important note – i had only a couple of games with this army in the third edition, so I had to think theoretically about building my roster.

Heroes of the idoneth provide major buffs to the already decent units, so I packed five of them – Lotann, Thrallmaster and Soulrender for buffing and reviving, Tidecaster solely to give me access to the second Ritual if need arises (spoiler: it didn’t. Though there are always chances to meet some shooting-heavy lists, such as Hedonites, Kharadron Overlords, and Cities. In such situations, a combination of rituals of Deep-sight and creeping mist could grant me some major advantages). Akhelian King was there to do what Akhelian King does best – slaying stuff. And oh boy, did he deliver some major pain.

I’ve chosen Nautilar solely to make the otherwise lacking Leviadon worth 400 points – I knew that it was a controversial choice for the Enclave, but this sweet rend -3 on damage 4 attacks was needed, in my opinion. I think it paid off, as in all 3 games, the turtle did some heavy-lifting as well.

I also had doubts about 2 units of 3 Ishlaen, though I intended to use them as ultimate objective-grabbers. They did their job very well due to their speed, some consistent damage output, and decent survivability. These guys ain’t no joke, and now I think I will be taking them as the core part of the list as they do their part really well. It’s very easy for them to take control of the objective from other skirmish units – such as skinks, Dawnriders, or even river-trolls they faced in the 1st round of the event.

In all cases, they killed their opponents without losing any models themselves, which is very important, as they were able to continue their play until the end of the battle. After securing the objective, they also had plenty of roles to fulfil – chase down the opponent’s beaten units, assassinate heroes, and even support the main line if need be.

Finally, Namarti are Namarti – reavers were manoeuvrable shooting-support, capable of inflicting some hurt to enemy armies and sometimes even killing charging foes in unleash hell due to their bonuses «to hit». Their colleagues, thralls, backed up by Thrallmaster, Leviadon, Lotann, and Soulrender, were capable of holding their ground pretty well in all three games and inflicting solid damage in return. To round it up, the lists turned out to be quite well-balanced – it has speed, some high rends, weight of dice attacks, decent distance threats, and some decent survivability. The only weaknesses it has are inherited – idoneth strive to deliver and survive mortal wounds and playing with magic in general, which almost proved to be fatal against Seraphon and Lumineth. But their strong sides can mitigate those to some extent for sure.

CORE BATTALIONS
*Command Entourage – Magnificent
**Andtorian Acolytes

TOTAL POINTS: 2000/2000

Milan Popovic: My list has a few important things that make it joker-like. I have Sevireth that is fast and good at distraction and in chasing small heroes down. Bladelords are a good punching unit as well as Light of Eltharion. Dawnriders were in all games used as an additional screen with one unit of wardeners, but their purpose was to chase small units and to give support to Sevireth. Spell diversity I got from the Magnificent of Command Entourage battalion. The list is like a castle moving until I slingshot a unit of bladelords fully buffed that picks up important units and destroys them. Wih Enlightener that can cast speed of hysh if and his Rune of Enthlai it is possible to launch Light of Eltharion as well. It’s a well-rounded list that only suffers from spreading too much. Some small tweaks to the list would make it even more deadly. Better first strike placement with wardens, and maybe trading dawnriders for sentinels could make good change. Also, Sudden Translocation from Ellania and Ellathor makes them unreliable enough.

TOTAL: 1990/2000

Miljan Otovic: The idea behind this list is to play as much as possible to HoS’ main advantage, which is, in my opinion, speed.

So, all units are fast, and the main idea behind it is to concentrate heavily hitting units and take out as many of opponents’ damage dealers as possible – as fast as possible.

For screening and objective grabbing are used Seekers, while everything else is hitting and “pinning” the opponent in the opponent’s zone. Keeping his units and damaged dealers occupied, preferably for a few turns.

Keeper of Secrets and Sigvald are attacking characters (sometimes with Mask too) and destroying support ones on 1st turn if possible.

After that, there is trading between hitting elements of the army, but at that point, it goes in favour of the HoS.

One big drawback for this list is that it is “dice dependent”. Or more “average dependent”, any early skew in opponents’ favor makes victory near impossible. “

Hanna Leppänen: This list is an interesting one! Blisterskin is not the most typical subfaction, but it gives +2″ move to all Blisterskin units and a teleport CA for flying units. The Hero section of this list looks rather typical with double Archreagents providing 2 casts each and summons. Goose King aka Aborrant Ghoul King on Royal Terrorgheist providing a good mobile hammer (especially when buffed up) and Foot King for that +1 A spell and 10 Ghouls summon. Spellcasting Savant is a good GS, especially with Flayers, who I think are playing a major role in this list, transporting the heroes and being super mobile.

Overall, this list is a neat take on how FEC can be super control heavy (this was earlier this year seen particularly in Morgaunt lists). Lots of movement, movement shenanigans, screens, and zoning pieces prevent armies from getting where they want to go, with a huge threat of Goose King and Terrorgheist looming around (possibly teleporting with Blisterskin CA).

The list plays vastly different to the typical “99” horrors lists seen around. It doesn’t hit hard apart from the terrorgheists, but it provides a lot of hard to counter, mobile pieces that can screen the Terrorgheist and bully the back lines. Flayers can carry the non-flying heroes surprisingly far when needed, and while they’re definitely in the short end of the recent changes FEC got in Dawnbringers, they can do work, especially against the squishier targets. The 2 Terrorgheists do the heavy lifting of this list, while summons and fast flayers outmanouver and threaten out of position units.

This all being said, this kind of list requires very good positioning to function well, so very well done to Trung for getting his 5-0 with the list!

Aaaah, Starborne. Last time I commented on a Starborne list, I just made a glib limerick. And I can’t exactly top that. So this time, I’m just going to speculate idly on what could be done in terms of internal balance to mix things up a little.

Firstly, kill ‘Lord of Celestial Resonance’. Just straight up delete it from the book. It’s so far and away the most competitive pick of Command Traits as to render the rest meaningless. Sure, there was that one no-Slann list at War in the Heartlands that just happened to go 5-0, and he’s a complete legend, but of course the rest of us mere mortals want double the star power for just playing the game. Delete that command trait and we’d see some experimentation with the others – plus, as a result, the Slann’s points could probably drop a little which would also make him much more viable in Coalesced lists.

Next, re-write the Dracothian’s Tale sub-faction rules. As it stands it’s fairly pointless as I see it – the army gives you teleporting, you want stuff on the board for generating star power and screening your Star Power Generators – and there’s even a handy artifact (which this list hasn’t even bothered to take) for bringing stuff in outside of 7″ as opposed to 9″. So what does Draco Tail actually offer? Change it to something like – I don’t know, it buffs Chotecs and Terradons, or makes monsters a bit better somehow so that it can function as the ‘wizard lizards with fighty friends’ playstyle.

TOTAL POINTS: 1950/2000

Roland Rivera: An interesting note about the Ossiarch Bonereapers 3rd edition tome is that the first list to earn 5-0 honors used the Crematorians subfaction. Clarificatory changes to the timing of the Gothizzar Harvester’s ability (which made it markedly worse) resulted in it falling out of favor, but recent points cuts to the Harvester and to Mortek Guard have made it an appealing option once again.

This list features an interesting General choice in the Liege-Kavalos, which has been kitted out to be an immovable object with the combination of Mighty Archaeossian (which gives it a 3+ ethereal save) and Lode of Saturation (which gives it a base 5+ Ward). Because this list is Mortek Guard-centric, a Soulmason is a strong choice thanks to the Soul-Guide spell. These choices join a Boneshaper and Katakros, which are common inclusions in most OBR lists.

As for the troops themselves, this list features 2 units of 20 Morteks that it will seek to get into combat, as well as 5 Kavalos Deathriders as an efficient skirmisher unit. Lastly, a Harvester provides a potent source of secondary healing for the Mortek as well as a cheap, decently hitty Monster to Roar into combat with.

Last but not least, the list includes some endless spells in the Bone-Tithe Shrieker (to combat wards) and the Soulstealer Carrion (to combat cheap objective grabbers). You don’t often see these spells in OBR lists with how tight their points situation currently is, but the pilot here clearly felt that they were needed, and who am I to argue?

Roland Rivera: At first look, this looks like your bog standard Empty Throne list – lots of Varanguard for hammering things off the table, an anvil of Knights up the middle to pin the opponent down and do some damage in the process, and Heroes to support those two units. However, this one has a very spicy curveball in that it’s not running any magic, which is a typical staple of Slaves to Darkness. Instead, this list is suiting up with a rarely-seen Hero Monster in a Chaos Lord on Manticore, which brings something most of these lists lack – a durable source of Roar.

Speaking of that Manticore Lord, the pilot made some choices inclined towards its staying power in combat by marking it Nurgle, choosing the Daemon Blade (for mortal wound output in melee) and Chaos Runeshield (for a 3+ save and a 5+ Ward v. mortal wounds), and giving it Death Dealer for a once-per-game boost in output. I personally question giving that to the Manticore Lord over the Karkadrak Lord (which is a naturally punchier unit, made even more so by being marked Khorne over Nurgle), but I’m sure there was a reason behind this decision.

All in all, this is an interesting twist on a classic Slaves to Darkness list. I’m not sure it’s a better approach that using magic to buff your units up, but it certainly stands out more on the tabletop.

Jon Anderson: News from the realms of order, light, and all things pointy eared.

Andreas Schwarz has proven that sometimes you don’t need a god to show everyone what you’re made of. Going undefeated this past weekend with Zaitrec Lumineth,
we have a fantastic mix of support pieces, threats, and utility all bundled into one neat 2000 points on the nose. Triumphs are for chumps. Utilizing the Spellcasting Savant
Grand Strategy is unquestionably the best option in a GT setting, and by ensuring their survival with the 10 bladelords, I would wager Andreas likely never felt much pressure on his caster
corps.

By taking the Warlord bonus for an extra spell, all of his Wizards (as well as Wizard units) become very knowledgable little elves, and their toolbox evolves from something you’d carry in your hand, to something you roll around in a shop. Nearly every spell available to him is in the list somewhere, and the power of that can not be overstated. The Enlightener packing enough spells
for a whole classroom while also having the ability to double tap the Lore of Hysh means you have a spectacular option as general, and the Rune of Senthloi is a nice change of pace!

As if summoned out of the desert itself, a wild Sevireth has appeared! Mobile, annoying, smashes faction terrain? Sounds like a winner in my book.

The three endless spells are a choice I myself am quite a fan of. This ensures you have redundancy for the battle tactic as well as producing needed projection for damage down field. I personally
would have taken a Lifeswarm, but that’s because I’m a coward.

Great list, and congratulations to Andreas on the undefeated finish.

Patrick German: We’ve once again broken away from the standard Khorne list to see a top performer with some interesting choices. We’ve discussed the Bloodmaster, Bloodthirster General, Bloodsecrator, and Bloodletters at length. They’ll perform in this list as well as they ever do, so long as Benedict plays the movement phase well (which he obviously did with his 2nd place finish).

What I would rather focus on is the addition of three Warcry warbands that we haven’t seen in top spots since the days when Slaves to Darkness was dominating the top three lists. Benedict has clearly answered the question that many of us on the Woehammer Discord regularly ask: what do you do to score turn 1?

The trouble with the current GHB is that turn one is often extremely difficult to score for some armies. Khorne’s battle tactics generally require you to kill a unit in special conditions, or finish the turn with a large number of units in combat. This really leaves two options for scoring turn one, either Intimidate the Invaders or Surround and Destroy. The first is deceptively difficult, since it defines territory instead of deployment zone, meaning some missions are requiring 11″+ of movement, which Khorne cannot reliably do. Surround and destroy however…

Enter the Untamed Beasts. For 80 points you get a 6″ pre-game move. It doesn’t matter what they can or can’t do past that point, because you are taking them for the 6″ pre-game move. The ability to quickly get out of your deployment zone and within 6″ of a board edge is scoring those battle tactics early, and if you can also manage to get your units on an objective or two, even better. The inclusion of these units should immediately make your opponent question whether to force you to take the first turn, since you can so easily start the game on a leg up.

Past that inclusion, he has the Unmade to shut of enemy commands, Karanak to help boost up the Flesh Hounds (and making summoning more effective), and Skulltaker to knock the heads off of enemy heroes to score some bonus Blood Tithe.

All around a great list that dips into some less-popular units. Congratulations on the 2nd spot, Benedict!

Danny Wadeson: Here, we have a fairly standard Manny list, but with my personal favourite chaff combo of 2x 3 Fell Bats. Their speed, ability to trade up (damage 2 and bonus attacks if they kill stuff, plus vampiric healing and 3 wounds a model) just means they’re wonderfully useful in a variety of situations – and in msu format, when they return from the dead, you’re getting 2/3 models back which is wonderful ROI.

The flex points in this list are spent on a 2nd brick of Graveguard, which makes sense because even after their points hike, they still slap like mad and play wonderfully into the army’s recursion abilities. Combined with the counter charge and the potential to be buffed by two sources (Manny killing a model with Gheistvor and the foot vamp), a double brick probably feels fairly overwhelming for most armies.

On that note, I can’t say I can instantly guess why it struggled with a Zaitrec list without seeing it. I suppose the weakness of a list like this in theory is that Graveguard rely on volume of attacks, but if you have ways to reach out and decimate them from range, they’re much less of a threat, and the vlozd is the only piece with traditional threat projection. Either way, LoN is loads of fun, and it’s nice to see a bit of experimentation within the sub-faction. Plus, it’s probably a good sign it can be beaten!

Lodivicus: Sometimes there is a recipe that just works despite various tweaks over a period of time. This list is a current GHB version of the type of army list that was very popular a couple of battlescrolls ago. Pretty much every unit in the list has had its points increased (some twice) since the release of the battletome, yet Tristan illustrates here that it can still perform at a pretty high level and still works.

In some games, you’ll be more cautious and wait for an opening. In others you’ll play aggressive right from turn one. The premise, regardless of timing, is pretty much the same.

Take one unit of Squig Herd, season it with all the buffs, and fling it across the board at your opponent. Next turn, do it again with the other Squig Herd. If the opponent manages to kill a Squig Herd, you pop another half sized unit out of the Bad Moon Loonshrine and get back in line to do it again. Send wave after wave of spiced up meatballs at an opponent until victory is yours.

So what are the main buffs, spells and abilities that spice up the list?

Need more rend? The Madcap Shaman’s Moonface Mommet and Gobbapalooza’s Nasty Poisons have your back.

Mortal wounds? Squigboss with Gnasha-squig’s Yellow Lurka, Skragrott’s Fangz of the Bad Moon, and the Madcap Shaman’s Merciless Blizzard come through.

Fight on death? Grinkrak the Great can ‘I Dub Thee…’ Moonclan (which includes Squigs) units.

5+ ward (and less commonly +1 attack)? Sneaky Snufflers’ Looncap Mushrooms.

+1 hit in melee? The troggoth ally, the Marshcrawla Sloggoth, brings his Krew Drummer to help mitigate that Squig Herd can’t receive commands.

And that’s not all, the list is still loaded with other less commonly used or situational abilities, spells and buffs too. While it may not be your grandmother’s jambalaya, packed with all of the previous ingredients from times past, it’s still plenty spicy and loaded with meatballs. It just works!

Top Three AoS Lists for Resurgence (1 Day Event)

This is the top three AoS lists for Resurgence that took place in the Philippines on the 7th of October. It saw 10 players vying to be crowned champion in a 3-game tournament.

We’re very lucky to have gotten to know the Wartilyo crew quite well since their GT we covered back in May. When Lance reached out about producing a Top Three for a recent one dayer in the Philippines, I jumped at the chance. Thanks to Lance for sending the information through and to the players for sending their list writeups!

If you would like your 1 dayer to be covered by Woehammer, join our friendly Discord Server and contact Peter.

Before I jump into the Top Three AoS Lists, I wanted to remind everyone of our friendly Discord server where you can join in the conversation with the Woehammer crew and suggest articles or series for the website.

The Top Three AoS Lists

Heneral Custard: The list started out as a copy of Liam Kavanaugh’s list from Gymhammer last July, but tweaked to my playstyle. I swapped out Chainrasps for bigger chunks of Spirit Hosts to act as a more imposing anvil, fit in a second Guardian of Souls to spread around the +1 to wound aura (and to attempt Merciless Blizzards), and put Pendant of the Fellwind on the Krulghast because I like them sticking with the Spirit Hosts. The points drop was also a big help, and with an odd 80 points, Craventhrone Guard could accomplish skirmishing, activating Harridans, and completing the odd Surround and Destroy.

Spirit Hosts with the coherency change plus Hoarfrost have been a really fun way to play them. Coupled with the +1 to Hit and +1 to Wound auras, they’re surprisingly dangerous. Suddenly, they aren’t just batteries for Kurdoss or the Krulghast to fulfill Led into the Maelstrom; they do catch people off guard with their damage output. The 1-inch range proved to be a problem, but this is coming from someone who used to run 9 of them in a unit during the last season as Galletian Veterans. Regardless, when they survive the melee, they’re some of best targets for Bait and Trap, and then immediately Harridans can clean up.

Speaking of Kurdoss, he’s just fun to throw into the fray. I often forget that he steals command points, because all I want to do is throw him at a problem and see if he can go the distance.

I wanted to get more use out of the Banshees anti-magic effect, but I think many Nighthaunt players agree with me that there is a certain joy in telling people what the attack profile is. Depending on the match-up, they either made for good counter charging or just being happy little screens.

All in all, Nighthaunt’s current strength feel like their ability to accomplish battle tactics. With the points drop, most of everyone’s favorite tools are viable, and after seeing a list that was all Bladegheist Revenants, I think the ghosts are going to be alright.

Commentary by Basa Mogul

Primary idea of the army:
1) Go for magical dominance + blocks of hardy tarpits making way for kroak to blast away

The primary idea of my army is to just step on the objectives and defend them by going for magical dominance in the form of buffs, debuffs, mortal wounds, and unbinding while supporting it with blocks of saurus. The slann is built as a support unit that can turn into a melee warrior (although it didn’t come up because the saurus always survived). The starpriests are also support units that can use merciless blizzards when the situation calls for it. Kroak’s role is to really maximize the magic denial and area denial. One of the main features of the army is the Wizard-finder 20-man spear saurus block that can have a maximum profile of 2″ 40/60A 2s 2s -2 1. Last note, 4+ bites from saurus blocks are no joke.

Notable match-up comments
Khorne: The bloodthirster & skullcrusher is damage ok vs saurus, but bloodletters are painful. I will just let them try to do their 5+ spell ignores vs Kroak blasts.

OBR – Nagash: I will try stay away 30in from him, and just buff the team since the rest of the army not too painful. Main goal is to try and wizard-find nagash, and try to dish-out celestial deliverance via arcane vassal while being out of unbind range.

Behemat – I will just tarpit, and then blast with kroak.

Soulblight – I will just stand-on the gravesites, try to counter all spells, and try to do snipe damage on the heroes with kroak.

Nighthaunt – I will overwhelm them with the amount of attack dice to roll. Since they are using MSU, I think kroak will do well against them.

Stormcast – I will try to hide the heroes behind battle line, and protect kroak with all the buffs, if needed.

BJ Recio: I started the list out with Nagash – the event poster had Nagash sitting on a throne, and as it happened my Nagash was also kit bashed to sit on a throne, so I felt it was fate heh. On a serious note though, what made Nagash worth the 900 points for me was less the 8 spells casting (it’s strong but not that central, I can afford to miscast), but rather the unlimited unbind attempts at +3 roll. That counters the Magical Dominance and Magical mayhem BTs so it seemed like the way to go with the list is battle tactic denial.

There wasn’t a lot of room for OBR units so the bonus command points were not as plentiful, which meant putting in liege kavalos for the free command per turn. Earlier versions of my list used the boneshaper as the general, but Diversionary Tactics didn’t work so well with it because mortisans are slow and hard to position. And I really wanted that command trait to make Bait and Trap and Led Into the Maelstrom hard for my opponent, so I made LK my general.

Battleline-wise, the spear mortek guard with harvester formed the core of my castle, the sword mortek guard was there to grab faraway objectives and force my opponent to split, and the kavalos deathriders were there for my round 1 battle tactic. They’re all expendable because Nagash brings them back half-strength anyway, and I was crematorians so I wanted them to die to deal mortal wounds.

I should note that while the harvester has been nerfed to the ground, it’s 160 points now which for a monster is not bad. The fact that it brings some mortek guard back is more of a bonus than a feature. And since Nagash is there, my opponents tend to think of the harvester as low priority.

Since I did not make my mortisan the general, I couldn’t use Spellcasting Savant as my GS. I went for Overshadow instead, which sucked against Seraphon and their super tough battleline. I anticipated Seraphon to be my weakest matchup overall, since they have bonuses to casting that weakened the point of Nagash’s +3 to unbind rolls. Then I matched against him at random battleplan 1 so I was off my game from the start. I was slightly ahead of him in points but had no chance on my GS. In the future I should consider another GS – maybe Control the Nexus? Still hard.

I did well against other matchups. I knew SBGL is all over right now with hordes of zombies, but between gravetide and the boneshaper’s warscroll spell, plus my harvester-protected mortek guard, I knew I could outlast and wipe those hordes and use the Soul Release spell to force their re-summons to deploy very out of place. Meanwhile, the mirror versus OBR went well because I just tarpitted his Katakros with deathriders buffed by Nagash spells and outscored him by denying BTs and smashing Nagash against his spellcasting savant general.

Joshua Manalansan: First off, credit for the list and its playstyle goes entirely to Jarod Brown– THE top performing Lumineth Realm-lords player who has pioneered and piloted this list to a 5-0 and 4-1 finish. Much more than that, he has been a mentor to countless players in the Lumineth Discord and is the go-to person for all things Lumineth.

Standouts for this list include Rune of Senthoi, Eltharion, Sevireth, Ellania and Ellathor, double Dawnriders, and double-reinforced Bladelords.

With Rune, Enlightener unbinds on a +4 with the Scinari heroes and Zaitrec. This can be powered up even further with the Optimal Focus realm rule giving another cast and unbind if you go second in the round. Eltharion has one of the best points-to-damage ratios not just in the Lumineth book, but in all of AoS. The twins function as half Enlightener and half Eltharion, growing stronger as the game goes on and getting the bodyguard interaction with the Bladelords. Sevireth just crushes the meta by assassinating Andtorian Locuses, going to the sides of the battlefield, and smashing opponent terrain. Dawnriders are the Swiss army knife of this list. Scores easy points, moves up the board to cast Overwhelming Heat, and provides Speed of Hysh for units that go deep. Bladelords provide the bodyguard rule for our Scinari units and ensures Spellcasting Savant. With Perfect Strike, they will on average deal 9 mortal wounds to whatever they touch.

This list utilizes the Andtorian Acolytes battalion and has overall better usage of primal dice compared to Teclis-based lists. Along with how common Locuses are, the changes to “Look Out, Sir!” and the Sentinel point increase, this list might just be the best way for Lumineth players to tackle the current GHB!

Jon Anderson: Coming from out of nowhere with a haymaker of a list is Nicolas Tassone showing the world why you don’t sleep on the REAL god of magic. Teclis and friends used the Andtorian Acolytes battalion to great effect in Nicolas’ 5-1 finish only dropping to Crematorians in the final round.

With a beautiful endless spell suite, Nicolas was sure to send his opponents care packages from afar courtesy of the Umbral Spellportals and Malevolent Maelstrom. This is what I like to see from Lumineth. No Vanari Sentinels in the list at all.

This is a list with some hair on its chest.

Danny Wadeson: So you got the memo that Soulblight (and Vyrkos in particular) are good now right? You may also have heard ‘something something zombie spam’ – but every so often, a trailblazer, a trend-setter, a maverick comes along and says ‘fnah’ to zombie, and ‘hurrah!’ to Deathrattle. Well, two by 10 of them as cheap MSU who can still be annoyingly hard to put down if you under-commit, and he does still have 40 zombs, which is a gentleman’s amount really.

He’s spent the other points on the usual stuff but he has slammed Cado in there, who is still underrated as a versatile hero on a teeny-tiny base. Otherwise, standard stuff of the ‘also 20 graveguard’ variety as they combo so well with Radukar’s ability to give something +1 attack after he’s charged.

And it only lost to Zaitrec LRL of all things! Either way, a pretty balanced Vyrkos list here that proves a) you don’t have to take a gazillion zombies to do well and b) that, actually, SBGL are totally fine and don’t need any more nerfs, at all! If LRL can beat them, nerf them again I reckon!
