Today we're playing a slightly off-meta Fallen Divinity list against high explosive Tempered Creed Dweghom. Come for the giant avian death goddess, stay for the lengthy explanation of Old Dominion Salty Bitch Syndrome and why it's important to not be that player.
The fallen divinity was the first model that I saw when I was looking at Conquest a few years ago. Knowing how scary she is now makes me genuinely excited about the prospect of playing... Now I just need to figure out how to get folks to play with me. 😬
I think now that legionnaires are viable, they're not essential but will be nice to have and open up new options. Units like Praetorians really benefit from having a ranged unit that can park behind them and shoot over their heads (including into enemies engaging them) or stay back to hold a zone while they continue pushing forward. I want to try a Divinity list that has a cultist frontline with Kerykes behind occupying at least a part of the battlefield. This might be a case where I was wishing the cultists were undead units but I want to see how it plays out.
I think they're still very slightly a work in progress by the developers but very promising. On release I was a vocal critic of how much bookkeeping the ritual mechanic needed, and they've rectified that in a massive way with a recent update. There are a few other changes that probably need to be made to get it just so, but the framework is there now and the model range and army mechanical concept is really cool. Particularly given the release schedule over the course of the year, they're a very promising army :)

Verry nice battle report, clean format and actually shows how you play and make decisions throught the game 🤠. I hope for more games like this ☺️
Great report
Nice BatRep! How much impact do you think the upcoming centaur regiments will have in fallen divinity lists?

Great battle report! The format is nice this way.
Can you explain how exactly the flame berserkers are scoring him early points?
The Ardent Kerewagh's Rancor spell works on light regiments :)
Hey! Just saw your video and I love the spires models you have! Do you have any socials I can find to take a closer look at them?
I don't, sorry. But you can see some of my models over on Goonhammer, e.g.: www.goonhammer.com/conquest-faction-focus-the-spires-updated-6-4-2024/
how are you liking the sorc kings?
