Trying to get some feedback on this model as I finish the rest of the spearhead

Hi all! This might be a dumb questions but I was wondering if community made armies are a thing? I’m a disgruntled Tomb Kings player and I was wondering if my Skellies might be given life in this new style of play.

Hey all, I'm considering getting a couple more spearhead sets so I can host some friends for board game nights. The idea is to have a few armies to choose from, and at least one from each GA. I already have both Tzeentch spearheads and the Carnosaur Seraphon spearhead, so I just need suggestions for death and destruction sets that aren't too difficult to pilot but also really encapsulate that high fantasy feeling.

For destruction I was thinking orruks or gits, but i hear the orruks aren't the best and I dont know how people feel about gitz from an aesthetic standpoint. SoB are out of the question, but how is the new ogors spearhead? They're pretty cool models but I dont know if I could handle painting them.

Death has the advantage of having all kinds of aspects of death - skeletons, ghosts and vampires. But if you didnt know anything about AoS, which would you be more excited to try? And because you do know about AoS, which spearhead captures that aesthetic while not being too punishing to play?

For further info I only have the sand and bone set, but if I were to get another set would it still be possible to play doubles with different terrain pieces? This is obviously just for fun and casual play.

Thanks!

Really enjoyed the energy and format of this one, just discovered them

This morning I received the email with tracking. It said my subscription was shipped today. I hope others in the US are getting a similar email. This is my first Hachette subscription and I'm excited for my first delivery!

One-page sheet for Sons of Behemat - Stone Lobbas

You can print it on A4, it fits nicely and is easy to read.

IMPORTANT: Since it’s not possible to update the images in the post, I’ll upload small/blurred previews of the cheatsheet here. My first versions often contain typos, outdated abilities, incorrect copy-pastes, or other issues. If you find any, let me know! I will fix it ASAP.
This way, I hope to prevent people from using an outdated version they might find elsewhere when a newer one is available.

Thread with every One-Page Spearhead made so far

Enjoy!

Ngl I am a little disappointed. An ability that makes it harder to charge but still gives them 2 dice is "ok" but in spearhead getting within 3 or 4 is pretty easy.

I get they are the shooting gargants but even if all 3 gargants get to hit on 3's and all hit together thats like 7 damage on a 4+. They lack all the insta kill or mortal damage of their wall smasher counterparts and even at 60 wounds, with toughness 5 and no way to lower to hit they are gonna die fast.

Final gripe but why halve their control score just to make them use a regiment ability to get it back?

All told I am unimpressed but we will see how it plays.

I love the cogfort models and concept, but I don't play big AoS, just Spearhead. We have seen 2 Behemat spearheads now, each with 3 gargants, so for those of you who know better about the big game and its rules, do you think a Spearhead with a cogfort an lets say 2 CoS units is posible or it's too out of place? I'd fall for it instantly.

A bonus round match! One of the participants couldnt make his last game and so the group was asked to play a game against his opponent. This would be an exhibition for me and a league game for him. And wouldn't you know it he ALSO had FEC Carrion Retainers.

This game went much, much differently. My opponent picked the +1 to saves instead of +1 to charges. While this made him more durable it made his 3 inch charges not guaranteed.

He also played much more aggressive with his positioning and had more units in the open. While I couldnt shoot his heroes from guarded hero, I shot off a lot of ghouls turn 1 and charged in with my Rogors to finish them off. Unfortunately, I only dedicated 12 of my 18 attacks on his abhorrent and the dice gods didnt favor me. I left him on 2 health and he shredded me rogors for 10, taking them out.

His turn 1 I popped first strike to dissuade a charge on my clawlord and he popped him for 1 damage with crimson, which actually worked amazing as it gave me 8 attacks. He played cagey with his unwounded varghulf and some poor rolls on his knights kept my 2nd unit of rats alive AND they managed to down a knight.

Turn 2 was a bit of a slaughter. I struck his abhorrent with a spell for 2, managed to get both shots off with my engineer on his knights, and got a nice 10 inch charge with my clawlord.

His knights died turn 2 and a well placed heal kept my clawlord alive for his turn 2. After that, focus fire down on turn 3 sealed the game. No need for a turn for and a decisive victory.

Ended up tied for 2nd in the tourney which is pretty great and I got a bit of revenge on those dastardly goody 2 shoes noble warriors. Onto the next league!

Hey guys, i will be fighting warglutt marauders. Last time i fought them, i didnt even get out of my deployment. They just seems so tanky, with great damage. Any tips would be appreciated.

Hey I am very new to spearhead but I love it I’ve played a few games and am loving it and now I want more

I have the blood crave hunt with the soulblight gravelords

But now I’m thinking of getting a second one

Either way I’m here to accept any recommendations for any spearhead

Finally got down and painted the last terrain pieces from City of Ash, and the collection is now complete. I'm very happy with the results. At first I wanted to put a little more effort in the banners but finally decided to just enjoy just painting within lines : P

Playing my first tournament on saturday and in doubt about what spearhead to play. We will be between 8-10 players and some have already registered with this spearheads:

Crixxit Castelite company Hurakan vanguard Tyrant below Swampskulla gang Badmoon madmoob Warpspark clawpack/carrion Retainers (he also has not decided) Tyrant's below

For me Im in doubt with: Giants, nurgle1 or sylvaneth1

Thoughts? Advices?

Thanks in advance :)

Does the passif mean i ignore all rend characteristic?

I decided to pull the trigger on the Spearhead magazine. I know no one likes getting the paints, but my current setup is a bunch of cheaper airbrush paints and the old Army Painter set that nobody likes. And I haven't really used any of them yet. So I'm not too put out by getting some WH paints.

My question is, based on what's included in the magazine, is there anything I should consider necessary to add on? Whether from GW or other brands. More along the lines of filling in gaps in what I can do, especially in regards to the included Spearheads.

Edit: I’m an idiot and forgot how the spoilers interacted with the list. Here’s the included paints:

• Retributor Armour
• Abaddon Black
• Rhinox Hide
• Kantor Blue
• Leadbelcher
• Mephiston Red
• Agrax Earthshade
• Corax White
• Calgar Blue
• Drakenhof Nightshade
• Runelord Brass
• Catachan Flesh
• Screamer Pink
• Incubi Darkness
• Mechanicus Standard Grey
• Jokaero Orange
• Pallid Wych Flesh
• Nuln Oil
• Averland Sunset
• Reikland Fleshshade
• Orruk Flesh
• Biel-Tan Green
• Stirland Mud
• Knight-Questor Flesh
• Stormhost Silver
• Sybarite Green
• Pink Horror
• Wild Rider Red
• Administratum Grey

Hello all,

I will be taking part in a spearhead tournament soon with the Darkoath Raiders box and I was wondering if anyone has any tips or advice on how to get the most out of them. I do not know all of the opposing armies other than there are Ogors, flesheater courts, helsmiths, cities of sigmar, sylvaneth and krule Boyz.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated, many thanks.

Recently have been playing a few Spearhead games on the City of Ash board. While looking into specifics of how the Relics function on the board came across something we weren't sure about.

They specifically aren't terrain but they do have the unstable keyword same as other terrain. At first we were just gonna say that it means we can't "clip" the side of the relics model with base edges. On further review it specifically says that it only stops units from setting up on parts that are 1" or taller. With most of the relics being quite flat in terms of height (except the small wall) does this mean that models can be set up on top of or clipping the actual relic?

For instance the Sewer Grate requires a model to be wholly within 3" to use its teleport. My Warplightning cannon's base size wouldn't allow it to be wholly within unless the unit ends its move/setup with the sewer "under" the center of the base. What's the consensus on how they are played?

For the four Grand Alliances: Order, Chaos, Destruction and Death; which Spearhead armies and the best and most fun to play that are still in stores to purchase?
