Top Three AoS Lists for the Nova Open Age of Sigmar GT

Advertisements

This is the top three AoS lists for the Nova Open Age of Sigmar GT that took place in the UK on the 1st and 3rd of September. It involved 165 players vying to be crowned champion in a 8-game tournament. After the 5th round players were split into 8 pods for the final 3 rounds. Players could choose to play either 5 or 8 rounds.

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.

Also if there’s a one day or two day tournament you’d like us to cover drop us a comment on this post and we’ll have a look at it for you.

Walter Brock: Today we are looking at a tough cookie of a list.  Running Petrifex Elite instead of the common Null Myriad we are used to seeing this season lately. This sub faction will allow the already tough units to be even harder to take out.

Spell casting savant works well with the Immortis guard. Making it very difficult to Deny the OBR grand strat.

Katakros alongside with Petrifex turns the toughness up to 11. Giving everything +1 to save and reducing enemy wound rolls by 1 in melee makes it very hard for things to go down.

The Boneshaper helps reinforce the hard to kill aspect of this list. Artisans key bringing back stalkers and Immortis guard is very efficient. That already nearly impossible to kill model just came back. Diversionary tactics reducing enemy charges by 3 within 12 can cause some charges to fail, deny battle tactics and make things difficult for the opponent all together. Reinforce constructs helps provide some protection from mortal wounds. One of the few sources of damage that can take out these tough units reliably.

The Ossifector is mostly here to buff the Morghasts.  The primary buff going on them will be the +1 rend. A strong support piece to keep things going.

6 Immortis Guard are seen a lot. That’s because they are very good at what they do, not dying and bodyguarding your characters that are reviving the Immortis guard.  With a once per game fight twice Immortis Guard have very respectable damage. 

Deathriders are the Heros of Bonereaper lists.  These can do pretty much anything. From screening to doing a simple battle tactic. This player opted for a single unit of Deathriders to open the battle tactic option mostly. The real meat and potatoes of the list is in the tough elite infantry and Morghasts.

A unit of 3 stalkers is interesting.  A small, fast unit that can take out key targets or run around harassing the opponents’ sides. They aren’t as survivable as Immortis guard but gain speed and hit harder in return. A very strong unit for any situation.

lastly is the two Morghast units.  Archai get a 5+ ward while wholly within 12 of a hero and Harbingers get the option to deep strike from off the board.  Putting both units in adds for some powerful tactical flexibility.  Both units when they roll and 8 or higher on the charge get fight first.  Letting the list pile on more damage before the main threat of a unit has even attacked.  The main strength of these guys is their ability to turn off commands within 3.  This ability can throw a wrench in an opponent’s plan and help swing things in favor for the Bone Reapers play.

All this fits into a Battle regiment.  A powerful list that is incredibly hard to kill the models, and lots of tactical flexibility.  Well done to this player.

Roland Rivera: Despite this tournament being in a 2-list format, our winner seems to has thumbed his nose at that notion, as both of his lists are exactly the same! He has gone for the Hero-heavy Khorne approach which seems to be gaining momentum of late, as he has maxed out his Hero selections.

The list is anchored by Skarbrand and the Bloodthirster of Unfettered Fury, which are a vital source of mobility in the form of 3D6″ charges (Skarbrand for himself, the Unfettered Fury Thirster for anyone) and doing most of the damage. The list also packs several Priests (including the Unfettered Fury Thirster itself) to help power out whatever Prayer or Invocation is the most useful at the moment (and this list has a pretty deep selection). An interesting addition is Theddra Skull-Scryer as an Ally (likely for Andtorian Locus-centered Battle Tactics). Skarr Bloodwrath rounds out the Hero lineup as a cheap, recurring space blocker that can also double as a source of Blood Tithe.

These Heroes have some troop support in the form of a blob of Bloodletters and Magore’s Fiends, but they will mostly be asked to do the heavy lifting in combat, on both offense and defense. Overall, this style of Khorne list seems to be gaining momentum this season, so don’t be surprised if you see similar lists going forward.

This is the top three AoS lists for Macki Wojny GT3 that took place in Poland on the 4th and 5th of August. It involved 70 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.

I found this tournament last minute, so I’m afraid there’s no commentary here, but I couldn’t resist sharing a Kruleboyz list as soon as I could (and one that isn’t Grinnin’ Blades or includes Gobsprakk).

Not that we really though it would, but it’s good to see that the slight nerfs – which were fair enough, especially to Murderlust – haven’t stopped Khorne from having a good time against some tough opponents. Anttu here has brought the ‘mortals with double thirster back-up’ archetype, and it’s one close to my heart. Usually, the main choice with this kind of list is whether you double down on a big blob of Blood Warriors or go more MSU – and Anttu has opted for the latter here, with 5 battleline units.

The Reavers and Blood Warriors are staples, and the Claws of Karanak are, for my money, still one of the best units in the army, especially in the new season where turn 1 tactics are difficult for Khorne – their pre-game move makes Surround and Destroy a lot more viable. With the points saved by having less Blood Warriors or Crushers, for example, the list packs in a 3rd hammer in the form of 10 Skullreapers, who haven’t seen much love overall but represent a good wound density and the potential for a really decent number of MWs – plus in Skullfiend tribe they gain extra value by being battleline (useful for battle tactics) and the possibility of gaining fight first with a good charge roll.

It’s a great, balanced list that shows off a good amount of warscrolls and took down some serious armies en route to 1st and looks super fun to play.

Hanna recently joined our Discord server to tell us about Finland’s Ropecon AoS GT, and we jumped at the chance to have her comment about her second placed list at the same time!


Hanna Leppänen: This list is based around lots of summoning and recursion with two Archreagents summoning 20 Beastflayers each and Ghoul King another 10 Beastflayers or 10 Crypt Ghouls. The Morgaunt subfaction lets you bring a Serf -keyworded unit (Beastflayers or Crypt Ghouls) back immediately when they die on a 4+, with the cost of a command point. Add in 2 Crypt Ghast Courtiers, a summoned Varghulf from the Zombie Dragon GK, and potential Heroic Action using muster (6 dice in your hero phase, for every 2+ you can return a Serf to a unit). With Varghulf and Heroic Action you can bring back a Crypt Horror model instead on a roll of 5+ if you wish).

The Recursion means that you have to kill a unit outright to prevent them from mustering back, and even then there is a chance the unit comes back full health wholly within 6″ of a table edge, 9″ away from opponent models. This means you can lose an objective if you’re not careful on your turn. There is the usual restriction of only one of each command per phase, so only one unit can be brought back each phase. The command itself can be used by any model capable of issuing a command. Old books have weird, janky rules and FEC is a prime example of this. Worth to note is that Muster rules allow models to be stringed out and you can muster one unit to get it within 10″ of another source of muster. Chalice of Ushoran is another thing that brings back models at the end of turn, so it can also lead to some weird interactions with objective control, especially on your turn.

Crypt Ghouls and Horrors (also Flayers which are not present in this list) have new warscrolls in Dawnbringers book 1, making Crypt Ghouls more streamlined to play with (re-roll 1’s change to -1 rend when near heroes and 5+/6+ auto-wound instead +1A). Unfortunately this breaks the Morgaunt Bloody Loyalty ability since the Boundless Ferocity ability is always in effect (used to be +1 attacks when over 20 models, Morgaunt Bloody Loyalty gave it on a unit of 10+ when near Courtiers). Crypt Horrors got +1 attacks and – 1 rend near Heroes. Crypt Horrors don’t benefit from Morgaunt CA, but they give you access to the “United Court” battle tactic and are a reasonably punchy unit, especially when buffed. Overall the changes didn’t change the damage numbers too much, but made both less tedious to play.

There is something to be said about FEC spellcasting. Andtorian Acolytes gives extra primal dice on a 3+ at the start of the hero phase, which helps with getting FEC spells off. Most FEC spells are buffs that can lead to a lot of damage with +1/+D3 Attacks and Zombie Dragon 16″ bubble of re-roll wound rolls. Hoarfrost is exceptionally good spell for FEC units, whose biggest downfall is – to hit debuffs with most things having 4+ to hit as baseline. 30 buffed up Crypt Ghouls do quite a lot of damage, especially if you use Feeding Frenzy on them. FEC warscroll spells are great, so for most spellcasters the spell choices were picked to be situational at best, Spectral Host giving the option for ZD to have run & charge, Deranged Transformation giving Horrors +4″ move and Merciless Blizzard for a Hail Mary BT if nothing else was available.

The MVP’s of this list were definitely the Serfs, with Beastflayers being excellent tarpits against damage 2 monsters and Ghouls who do tons of damage when buffed a bit. The list power projects really well and makes it hard to play against since there are multiple threats that don’t fold to an average backline objective holder.

Slaves to Darkness have settled quite comfortably into the ‘also rans’ groove in recent months, with a ‘woops all Varanguard’ or ‘Archaon + HOW MANY Splintered Fang!?’ skew lists occasionally nabbing a cheeky podium – and their recent shot in the arm from the battlescroll seems to have been more of a little jab to the foot.

But! Here we have Damien mixing things up in a way I’ve not seen before but makes a lot of sense. He’s brought Be’lakor, who’s become a relative staple of S2D lists to help them out with control, and the usual must-takes of a Sorceror and 10 Nurgle knights. What’s more surprising is a reinforced blob of Spire Tyrants – presumably because they’re just so cheap now and make for a good pile of bodies, also with -1 to wound from the Nurgle mark via Idolator Lord on the Mounted Lord – who also carries the Conquerors Crown for a cheeky objective stealing play and the abililty to bestow fight-first on the knights, allowing for a double activation with the cavalry units.

He’s also packed in a reinforced unit of Blissbards on loan from Slaanesh, who aren’t cheap but still offer a good volume of reliable shooting attacks that Slaves just otherwise have no access to – plus, I bet they look good in black. The final notable pick is the now bargain-basement Theridons, who are squishy and un-synergistic as always but for 160 pts can bring some absolute pain if they do make it into combat.

Beating out Seraphon twice and KO means the path to 3rd was fraught with real danger, but this list seems to have had the bodies, speed and staying power to handle some serious ranged threat. Big kudos to Damien for an imaginative and successful Slaves list!

CORE BATTALIONS
*Andtorian Acolytes
**Battle Regiment


TOTAL POINTS: 2000/2000

Brett: Stormcast (SCE) have been a rarity for us lately, overtaken by more recent books, but they are still a solid faction, just not the easiest to play. The new GHB may help them with primal dice to buff their otherwise lacklustre casting and the Knight Incantor’s guaranteed deny. No surprises with Liví’s list having one then as well as the Lords Relictor, Castellant and a Battlemage. Essentially, the standard leadership group for SCE. Livi likes living on the edge, taking a 5 wound hero to set up a chance (on a 5+) of removing a spell from their opponent with Eater of Magic. Then doubling down with Merciless Blizzard.

4 leaders means Andtorian Acolytes is easily filled and primal dice are available on 3+. That small change means at least one extra primal dice in the course of a game. With Blizzard needing a 12 to cast that’s a strong bonus. The rest of the list is fairly standard, 4x Tempestors as the hammer unit backed by Retributors and Stormdrake. The Stormdrake’s mobility is their key asset while the Retributors and the Tempestors can benefit (once down) from the combination of Translocation (Lord Relictor) and Wildform (Battlemage) to get anywhere on the board with +2 to charge. That’s better than the Lord Imperatant’s 7″ strat because you can drop just outside 9 (say 9.2″), preventing redeploy but still having an effective 7″ charge.

Price drops (from 140 to 120) on Sequitors have seen them return to lists. They can do a surprising amount of mortal damage and can be a threat. More unusually, Livi has chosen to take Vanquishers, probably to save 20 points for Endless Spells. This is why the Lord Castellant has Arcane Tome. He has a built-in Mystic Shield with his lantern, leaving him free to deploy an Endless Spell. And in a move for innovation, this list has 2 Endless Spells to make up for the lack of ranged. Firstly, the Pendulum for a chance to snipe small heroes and cause annoying wounds and also Gravetide for some more anti horde. As always, the weakness for SCE is scoring from turn 3 onwards when they finally wear down your units. Being able to return a Battleline unit (Call for Aid) helps of course, especially Sequitors, that means you can return a threatening unit.

Solid hammers and a lot of answers make this a tight list in the end and allowed a solid recovery from the first round loss. Great work taking SCE this close to the podium.

Top Three AoS Lists for Feud on the Fens

Advertisements

This is the top three AoS lists for Feud on the Fens that took place in the UK on the 22nd and 23rd of July. It involved 32 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.

As this event had less than 20 players attending there won’t be any list comments here as the guys will be concentrating on the larger events of the week.

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.

If there was one thing it always felt was holding DoK back, it was their terrible casting/casters – especially given their excellent lore. If only there was a way to make Mindrazor more reliable…

Russel here has taken a fusion list – The Big Lass is here with her double-reinforced stab-snek retinue – who at that number become an insta-kill button with their MW output and can be surprisingly hard to chew through – and msu, newly cheapened Aelves to fill out the battleline. Then there’s the double Heartrenders, who never go out of style as scoring pieces – in this season, they’re especially good for Surround and Destroy into Intimidate the Invaders.

Then comes the twist. A Treelord! At 230 it’s quite expensive allied tech, but their ability to stop a unit from piling in can wreak absolute havoc with an opponent’s plans, and against a squishy army like DoK could – and presumably did! – mean the difference between an enemy unit piling and killing half the sneks, or getting those extra wounds on Morathi – and not, which is a big deal.

With wins against the current meta-horrors SBGL AND OBR, this list and Russell’s skill clearly have legs. And tails.

Terries! So many terries! With the advent of the new Soulblight book, Avengorii was written off as non-comp even faster than people started complaining about VLoZDs – but their recent points drop seems to have tipped them into ‘viable’ territory, as evidenced here!

It’s a simple but effective list, built around 5 giant undead dragons who can do nasty damage and plenty of MWs – but the real synergy is in the Vengo Lord’s ability to allow them to ‘borrow’ the Hunger ability, healing up damage and going a long way to mitigating their usual lack of durability. Backed up by Lauka Vai’s key ability to allow Avengorii monsters a 6″ pile in – and with both Vengos capable of reducing rend by 1 (doesn’t stack sadly) – and you have a lot of monsters, capable of healing, mitigating your offence – supported by two devastating debuffs from the pair of Necromancers.

Beating the mirror, Khorne and Sylvaneth along the way is no easy feat, and this list only lost to the meta-terror Seraphon. A fantastic result for the ‘forgotten’ SBGL sub-faction.

Roland Rivera: This list is a blast from the past – Befouling Host lists with lots of Beasts of Nurgle were all the rage back in GHB 2021-era AoS, but have been dropping off since. However, Beasts of Nurgle just got a much-needed points trim, so this result may be an indication that this style of list can come out to play once again.

As far as playstyle goes, this list is using Beasts to run interference as mobile, durable annoyances that generally force overcommitting while the Hero Monsters (of which there are many) do the dirty work. The list is a strong summoner between starting with 2 Gnarlmaws and the Bell, so it can very quickly reach the contagion points needed to summon a Sloppity Bilepiper to prevent pile-ins against the Beasts or the GUO, or blobs of Plaguebearers to take objectives.

Another piece that got a points trim in this list is the Great Unclean One, and Max has kitted his out for utility. The Witherstave makes mortal wounds from disease trigger on a 3+ (which is a tangible improvement in their reliability), the Nurgling Infestation makes the GUO more durable by imposing a -1 to hit penalty on any attacks targeting it, the Doomsday Bell gives the player extra contagion points to summon with, and the Bileblade gives it an extra casting attempt in a pinch. He is a nice, durable complement to the hitting power of the Maggoth Lords, all 3 of which are present in this list.

This list requires a lot of careful positioning decisions, as its primary strategy is to physically block the opponent from getting close enough to the objectives to score them. However, in the hands of a skilled pilot, this list can be very hard for some armies to deal with, as demonstrated by this strong result.
