    This was a very enjoyable showcase with some cool conversions and nice looking teams. for next time perhaps have a bigger picture of the warband the frame on the left side is wasted space and you being a third of the screen is also suboptimal. a tiny you in the corner with maximum screen real estate for the minis would be an improvement.

    Wow - impressive hobbying! Interesting that most warbands are strict 1000pts without options. When I start a warband I tend to build everything + allies so I can have variation and they can "live longer". That of course leads to way fewer warbands to choose from!

    • @OffMetaMusings
      @OffMetaMusings 3 дня назад

      If you use Oath of Murder and the fighter is then resurrected, it does not negate the oath; The reasoning being that you get the oathed status 'after the fighter is taken down' so the change to favoured applies on the take down and doesnt care what happens to the fighter after. If it read something like 'as long as that fighter is taken down' or 'if that fighter is taken down' then a resurrect would reverse the ability.

    I have a question about a warcry rule that I thought you could maybe help with. I have looked in all the normal places, warcrier, and the rule book, but cant seem to find it. My question is, can you do a ranged attack though a non friendly fighter? So, I have 2 Kroxigors standing in front of each other and a rat ogre 4 inches away. Can the ogre shoot the back krox or no?

    • @OffMetaMusings
      @OffMetaMusings 5 дней назад

      Sure, I can help with that right now :) What you are looking for is the targeting rules for an attack; to target something with a ranged attack action you need to be in range and have visibility - for that you need to be able to draw a straight line from ANY part of your fighter to ANY part of the opposing fighter. In your example, as long as the Rat Ogre has visibility (either over, through or around the enemy fighter, maybe through its legs for example), it can shoot. Note also that you only get the benefits of cover from intervening obstacles and not fighters, so the Kroxigor won't get the +1T

    Hey^^ i made it. I asked because i came up with the idea of basically a seraphon army, but with Nighthaunt models. Awalrach has the same base size as the slan starmaster, kroxigor and spirit hosts , aggrodon lancers and dreadblade harrow and the Saurus warriors as grimghast reapers or gleavwraith reapers. it could fit with the theme of "summoning ghosts" with lords of space and time, AoE damage from the spirit hosts, the leap from the aggrodons and the tearing bite as frightful touch.

    • @OffMetaMusings
      @OffMetaMusings 6 дней назад

      Oh sure; so Wildercorp in general basically have the hunters of huanchi issue where one fighter (trailblazer with twin crossbow) is flat out better then all of the other options for its points. So the S-Tier version of them is basically a leader plus as many twin crossbow trailblazers as you can fit (i think 8 iirc); It's non-interactive and pretty boring to play as you are just rolling handfulls of dice looking for crits every turn. Wildercorps themselves do have some pretty interesting builds if you limit yourself to 3-4 trailblazers (basically all you can convert using the crossbows in the box), an arbalester, dog leader, and a bunch of dogs. Scouts are also not terrible if you build them with axes. You can also go 3x dog lord and max out on dogs for a 15 fighter list that solely does damage through the ability 'kill' but i find that almost as boring to play against as the crossbow build.

    • @OffMetaMusings
      @OffMetaMusings 9 дней назад

      I actually had this conversation the other day; For a bespoke only environment you have a bunch of options that arent't really any more balanced then just playing with the normal listbuilding rules; 1. One box bespoke warbands only. 2. Bespoke factions only, no allies. 3. Bespoke factions only, with allies. The problem with all of these is that there are clear winners in each category; Vulkyn Flameseekers and Kruleboyz Monsta-killaz outright win option 1 because they have the strongest bespoke boxes in the game, and Questor Soulsworn/Iron Golems become gatekeepers (especially in an environment where you allow battle traits also in the case of QS, and in general play, basically no warband has the tools to take down the Ogre Breacher). Option 2 unlocks lists that can outright win in a full comp environment due to playing in a way that is very hard to counter even in a competetive matched play environment; Examples include 15x man Tarantulos Brood, 9x Crossbow Trailblazers, etc. Option 3 Doesn't really change all that much from Option 2 but KMK get to also run a Clawback, and all chaos factions get access to the trueblood for nets, or the Slaughterborn with great axe for actual damage. Options 2 and 3 opens the door to double flamehurler aswell which despite taking points hits, is still very difficult for a standard bespoke environment to deal with. in an option2/3 environment, 9x trailblazer crossbows (which is one of the best lists in the game period) would be likely to take it every time barring maybe KMK Clawback soup. Ultimately, whilst the bands are narrower between the top and bottom warbands, out of the 28 bespokes, 4x of them out of the box put down lists that are flat out better then the rest, maybe a half dozen have serious mechanical issues (Claws of Karanak for example) and the rest are split depending on the mission type so a bespoke only format isn't really anymore balanced then any other playstyle.

      It's a hangover from Warcry 1.0 when everyone had that 1/4 damage profile; Skink blowpipe spam was kinda busted back then because they could just sit back and crit fish. That being said, after the points updates, I do think that there is a place for 60 point chameleons with blowpipes. They are very cheap, very fast and still have the reaction to improve their longevity.

If someone else is running a warband I made, I want it to be good, tuned, and close to the kind of playstyle they ask for.

    Because even for casual players. tournaments and matched play events are fun. It's not contrary to labelling myself a casual player at all. Looking at an entire year of play, 90%+ of the games are just casual games. Part of this is because I'm playing just to have fun with friends and family...but also and very importantly, there are not so many tournaments I can get to that it could ever become the majority of my play....and therefore it also won't become the majority of my focus...therefore I consider myself a casual player. I play in tournaments not necessarily to win, though I try, but to have fun playing my warband against other players who I do not normally play with--it's fun and you learn a lot when you step outside your local 'meta.'

    Appreciate you putting this much analysis into the warcry player breakdown. However, I think you have your work cut out for you as a warcry content creator in general. Our community is just so small. So small.

      It's fine. I'll drag it kicking and screaming into mainstream and then none of us will have any more fun.. wait.... 😆

    Would be great to see a 1 box + ally/2 box tierlist for bespokes, I think it would be most relevant to casual players which make up the majority of your viewers

    Goonhammer has had broadly the same results concerning casuals liking competitive content in the games they cover. I think casual players often treat the competitive scene like professional sports; it's interesting even if you're not going to step up your backyard game. I'm a casual player who runs local events, for the record.

    I almost always play multiplayer warcry, unless its a teaching game. Either 3 or 4 players. Right now I'm doing a narrative campaign with saltysea's 3 player pack.

    No character above 200points of value and 4 toughness max for my friends and I. We like to keep the games enjoyable and roleplay. This rule keeps our games really really more enjoyable and each little model has his time to shine! I can only recommend :)

      @@OffMetaMusings Ogor Breacher is a problem! But in our games it would be accepted if the player is not the best of us or from time to time. We would prefer duplicatas of smaller models than a bigg one with 30 wounds and 5 toughness..

    I have only played a handful of games and mainly got into warcry for the modelling and painting. Have really enjoyed the games I have played and would be interested in tournaments but dont have a strong enough grasp on the game as yet. I like to watch your videos as even the higher level competetive stuff has plenty of bits in it that help me to understand the game and tactics more. Very helpful as even though I only play casually, I want to get better at the game.

    Drawing from the deck has always been the feelsbad for the games I've played. They're so random and so easy for a match to get scuffed with some stupid deployment or rules. Bespoke supplemented by Bladeborn would be fine. There is just too much shit in the compendium that throws things off.

      I've been thinking about a system where you draw from several decks to generate balanced matched play battleplans (40k had a similar system a long time ago); but it would be alot of work for me to actually figure out XD
