Apocalypse Fantasy survival Wave 14 Ball and Chain

[Dark Lord Foamy]

Right might as well get sign ups for this out of the way.

The rules

So lets get the rules dealt with first.

Magic is done using the storms of magic rules so 4d6 power dice generated with a max of 24 and the 2 highest results get turned into dispel dice. The power and dispel dice are given to both your entries and my waves. You cast spells first and then I cast. The wheel of magic will be spun before each wave begins to let you know what the winds are doing during the next wave as they can alter battle plans.

Next shooting. This is pretty standard you shoot then I shoot. Note the only modifiers to hit applied here are the firing at long range that applies to both forces.

Combat is then done and on the first round of each both sides count as charging bar ranks which fired move or fire weapons, went stupid or had something else occur that would prevent them from being able to do so. Combat is done at initiative order as normal and there is no combat resolution.

Once this is done the round repeats until one side is dead.

Survival specific rules.

Each entry is made up of 3 ranks able to hold up to 100 models each. Due to their size monstrous, chariots and artillery count as 3 models and monsters count as 5. Riders of beasts don't count towards this amount until the mount dies e.g. a shaman on a arachnarok counts 5 models. The ranks are split up so that in shooting and magic phases the first rank is 6" away from the enemy first rank, the second rank is 12" away and the last rank is 18" away. In combat the ranks all bunch together with the first rank making all their attacks, the 2nd rank one unless they are monstrous and 3rd rank can't unless they are equipped with spears. The horde rule is ignored in this AOD.

For rules that say models in "BTB contact" the following count as being in BTB. Infantry and cavalry count as being in CC with 2 models. Monstrous units 4. Monster units 6. For things that have a range ask me and I will clarify for you.

For templates the amount of models they hit is infantry and cavalry 3 models, monstrous models 1. Small blasts infantry and cavalry 5 models, monstrous models 2. Large blasts infantry and cavalry 7 models, monstrous models 3. All weapons only catch monsters once.

Creating a entry. You start with 3000pts you can use to build your starting entry and after each wave you will receive 300pts extra. Entries are built using one of the current fantasy army books as well as units from warhammer forge and storms of magic. Arcane fulcrims may be purchased for 100pts and count as 3 models for rank purposes but once bought they will stay until your force is destroyed. Bound monsters may be bought with a limit of 1 scroll of binding for hero level wizards and 2 scrolls of binding for Lord level wizards e.g. you have a grey seer and 2 plague priests you can bound up to 4 monsters.

An exception to this is if you take a monster force. This force consists of nothing but monsters from the storms of magic book and must have at least a truthsayer or dark emissary in it to lead them. Apart from that go nuts take 3 exalted bloodthirsters if you want.

When submitting an entry to met just let me know the models, equipment they have and what rank they are in and if wizards what lore/spells you would prefer. Don't list everything as I do have all the books and it will take you forever with some entries.

Also entries are limited to 8 otherwise it'll take me a week to do a round.

As usual if you have questions and even the slightest doubt on how something works ask me and just so everyone knows even if get 8 entries in tomorrow I won't start updating till the 10th once I've settled into my new place.

[Aussie01]

Im in. Will pm my Entry shortly. Bretonnians.

[sneggy]

No idea how storm of magic works....so lets play spoiler

*enters a dwarf list*

[Doohicky]

looks good, but I don't know enough about fantasy to enter so will just watch from afar.

[Sinister]

can someone give me a vague idea of what an arcane fulcrum does without making GW rage at 40kforums? thanks.

PM'ing now :D

[Dark Lord Foamy]

In a nut shell you can use the cataclysm spells from the storms of magic book, gains a ward save, immune to psychology and immune to multiple wounds and stomp rules.

However you do smell heavily of Gorgonzola.

[Dark Lord Foamy]

However you do smell heavily of Gorgonzola.

No that's when you throw in the last rule which I've not put in the arena where only 1 model can attack a wizard on a fulcrim at a time. Also I've realised they aren't immune to impact hits. How the hell does that work I mean look at the fulcrums.

How does a chariot or ogre inflict a impact on a wizard on top of them especially flying disk one... also that spiral staircase on the tower is bitch to glue together or was for me.

[sneggy]

love lifts them up where they belong?

[Sinister]

I think this sort of conjecture fits right into the 'getting really into the 40k lore'.

If you'll refer to my official GW diagraham they explain exactly why impact hits still affect wizards on top of fulcrums.

[Ron]

Wizards on fulcrums are immune to impact hits because units in buildings are immune to impact hits, and fulcrums follow rules for buildings.

I should bring Ogres, but what to take? I think I might go for my original idea.

[Cames99]

Sneaky idea forming.... but need to look at something :)

If i pull of a summoning spell, does that unit remain in the entry for the whole arena? As it would in a real game?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

No as I dispel the energies that summoned them and they vanish at the end of the wave.

[Ron]

Lots of Channeling and Savage Big'Uns ftw! WAAAAAAGH!

Can we use the SoM monsters that are getting released in White Dwarf too?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

You can use the undead ones as I have the rules for them but any others not at the moment.

[Ron]

If one of my Goblins Nikkit an item, do they keep it for the game or just the rest of the wave?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

If one of my Goblins Nikkit an item, do they keep it for the game or just the rest of the wave?

The wave.

[Aussie01]

How would you service with the Green Knight. As Technically, he can never die. Only ends off the board. Would he start in a Rank? Or would He have to roll to arrive?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

With the green knight he starts on the board however as there are no forests or terrain for him to reappear in once he's dead he has to be rebought.

[Aussie01]

Fair call :) Wtb 4 more Sign up plox..

[Cames99]

Okay seeing as no-one is coming forward I'll put forward a fluffy Hordes of Chaos army (I assume we can still use that codex?)

Anyone want to see charge of the khorne heavy brigade that'll show the brets who's boss?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

Okay seeing as no-one is coming forward I'll put forward a fluffy Hordes of Chaos army (I assume we can still use that codex?)


No Hordes is no longer able to be used as Warriors of Chaos and Chaos Daemons are the 2 updated armies for the daemons and warriors.

[Cames99]

Boom New entry in... now with a lot more bang for the points, I added a few more members of the heavy brigade and upgraded the wizard > : )

[Aussie01]

Challenge Accepted Cames. Winner gets bragging rights!

[Dark Lord Foamy]

Okay I've moved in but will give this another day and if no one else has signed up by when I finish work tomorrow 24 hours from this post I shall start the game.

[Dark Lord Foamy]

Right first post updated with entries and I shall now reveal the first 5 waves.

Wave 1

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

Wave 2

Brains, Brains, where has all my skin gone?

Wave 3

Some are free and others are just nutters.

Wave 4

Gnobble Gnobble Gnobble

Wave 5

Beasts and dogs

Oh and place your bets, place your bets, when will Rons first goblin shaman explode.

[Ron]

The Great Gobbo on the Spider has Loremaster from the Catchweb, so no need to roll him and his spells don't count for duplication. Can you flip the Fimir(s) Pendulem and Steed both for Melkoth's Miasma?

I'm the only one who started with Fulcrums?

[Sinister]

I'm not sure i fully understand the benefit of fulcrums still, and are special characters elligable for the storms of magic stuff?

[Cames99]

You can put thanquol or teclis on a fulcrum if thats what you mean....

And i think i have the best knights... just saying XD S5 every round and 3 attacks each (and the horse)

I Thought about just running Grail knights, but when they die, thats a helluvalot of points...

[sneggy]

Need more guns!

Has to be mounted on the spider to gain Lore Master and as I've said to you via PM he can't be on the spider and the fulcrim as the fulcrim is a building and monsters can't enter/garrison buildings no matter what their size and the unit type doesn't change even when ridden so your going to have to choose whether the shaman is on the spider or the fulcrum. However I will be generous and either let you keep it as now with him being on the fulcrum and the spider being seperate but still having the shrine as he was bought with the shaman or give you a refund on the fulcrum.

As for the balefiends fine and shaman spells will be rerolled if Shaman does end up on the Arachnarok


I'm not sure i fully understand the benefit of fulcrums still, and are special characters elligable for the storms of magic stuff?

Yes for SC's but have to be wizards and to be honest unless you have the book your not going to see the point as they are really needed for the cataclysm spells which are pretty good and powerful heck one of the Skaven ones can wipe out all 3 ranks of your entry in one go if the dice went my way .

Anyway shall start rolling wave 1 tonight bar Ron who has 24 hours otherwise I'm sticking with my original post of Shaman on fulcrim, spidy by himself but still with shrine and do that tomorrow.

[Ron]

Well, the Spider can't buy the Shrine without the Shaman(but the chanelling part still works without him :P ), so put the Great Shaman on the Spider and stick the NG Shaman in the 2nd rank(with the Dispell Scroll) on to the fulcrum.

Although the first bullet point on page 28 of the SoM book says I can have the Spider on the Fulcrum.

[Dark Lord Foamy]

*Reads that bullet point and sticks the gobbo and spider on the fulcrim and then grabs his katana to pay a "friendly" visit to a mate who used the garrisoning rule to stop his Exalted Vermin lord from dashing across the board, killing one of his wizards, hoping on a fulcrim and then casting red pox*

Turn 2

I get cut to ribbons.

End of wave 1

Ugh I only hope the dice turn shit for Ron sooner rather then later as those constant debuffs on me are going to cause problems.

Also next wave the winds of magic are the winds of Shyish making the lore of death, lore of Nehekara, lore of vampires and dark magic easier to cast.

[Aussie01]

Replenish my 10 men at arms that died. (50 points)

[Ron]

Do you have the October WD yet, Foamy? I could just PM you the info. The monsters are literally the same as in the Ogre book, but riderless and a few less points(and a couple of SoM options).

*Really wants to add Thundertusk to boost the Savages by giving the enemy ASL. :twisted:*

[Cames99]

Only 87 hits? I am disappointed....

If a unit counts as a rank, then i'll be giving my knights regeneration and poisoned attacks as well by buying Festus the LeechLord for 185pts and another 3 knights of khorne for 120pts

[Sinister]

Hey foamy , does the shooting hit the rider? I was under the impression that the riders had a 3 wound mount, but i don't know fantasy so well so can you fill me in on that? the serpents have 3 w's the riders just have 1. i'll be updating with some more purchases :D

[sneggy]

2 more organ guns please.

[Ron]

For monstrous cav, you use whichever has more wounds, so the Snake Surfers should need to take 3 wounds before dieing.

No I don't collect the White Dwarves I just read the club ones but If you can let me know the points that is fine as I have the ogre book so know what the beasties do.

Oh and yeah mistake on the snake forgot they are monstrous but he got his wound back from round 2 from the tomb king lore so no biggy there.

[Ron]

Move 4 Savages to the 3rd rank. I'd like to put a SoM Thundertusk in the front rank for 190pts, give the Great Shaman an Earthing Rod for 35 Points.

225 Points spent.

[Sinister]

I'll take a Tomb herald with battle standard with the razor standard for 130 points and 2 more necropolis knights for 130 points. Please move the tomb king into the necropolis knights unit. (just noticed my will be done rule) gogo WS 6!

also pro job with the spellcasting :D I looked at all the spells and that's pretty much the optimal way of doing it!

So the necropolis knights have WS 6, armor piercing, a 3+ rerollable save, frenzy, Hatred and a 6+ regeneration save, killing blow on riders, poisoned attacks on mounts. PHEW I think that's everything :D


P.S How do multiple casket of souls work, and what is the difference between a bound spell, and an innate bound spell? Thanks.
-reread the rules and it says can only be hit by light of death once per magic phase, so one or two would be good to ensure most units get hit but spamming them isn't an option.

Anyone else have any tactics for tombkings? just got the codex recently and haven't had any tabletop time with them.

Anyone else have any tactics for tombkings? just got the codex recently and haven't had any tabletop time with them.

I have a Opponent that spams Chariots, Gets something like 12 Impact hit rolls, uses a spell or something to give them an extra attack and then hits me with 6 attacks per chariot... Pretty brutal. Not 100% sure what spell names and what not are though.

The other thing, Get a Heirophant and the special character that is a level 5 wizard. Something about maximising your power dice and dispel dice. Have a look through the rules for them. :)

Innate bound spells still work after a miscast just fail to work that phase while normal bound spells stop working completely and in the case of the arena need to be rebought. Multiple caskets can each affect a unit once each.

So anyway wave 2

1st rank 100 zombies 2nd rank 100 skeletons with shields 3rd rank Vampire with Rod flaming death, avatar of death granting him a shield, hand weapon and heavy armour, Dark acolyte. The vampire knows gaze of nagash and summon undead horde.

So I'm going to post the magic phases for this wave as I did nothing elsewhere bar die and die badly due to undead being more squishy then orcs.

How many Mythic Items are we allowed to have? Just one or do we count as a Grand Army? I have another cunning plan.

[Dark Lord Foamy]

How many Mythic Items are we allowed to have? Just one or do we count as a Grand Army? I have another cunning plan.

1 Mythic Item per army.

[Ron]

Too bad. I can't be as mean as I would have liked. I'd like to hand the Lvl4 Great Goblin Wyssan's Weighted Dice(for 150pts) and I want 6s to count as 5s. Kind of negates my poison archers(unless I throw a the poison spell at them), but my shamans are safe from miscasts.

Move the 4 Savages from the third rank to the first rank(there are currently only 96 models in the first rank).

[Aussie01]

Replenish 8 men at arms.

[sneggy]

more ironbreakers. 23 I think but army book is packed for house moving.

[Cames99]

Erm..... i have 650pts in store? Wow.... in that case give me 15 chaos knights for 600pts and that should almost fill my front row.

oh and when i get wounds back from casting spells they have to go from hq to rare to troop etc... the best units always get healed first as per the instructions :D

[Dark Lord Foamy]

20 skellies, 40 points front rank please.


Okay you obviously aren't aware of this but with undead the dead ones who can be revived by thinks the tomb king lore special rule and nehek still count as being in the rank unless you A) move them or B) tell me to replace them. So I can't put those skeletons in front rank at the moment as it is full with the ones waiting to be revived so need to know what you want me to do with them.

Also will start updating in a couple of hours time as I'm I need to shoot some people so they shut up about NZ winning the rugby world cup *takes out his 2nd ed assault cannon and heads into the centre of town*.

Shooting and Combat

Cames has slight issue here as the metamolten rule is in affect as lore of metal is in ascendent which basically means he ignores armour saves and rolls to wound depending on my armour save.

Festus casts curse and the rats are reduced to T0 and are all slain.

End of wave 6

Well if it wasn't for festus Cames would have been doomed due to his own magic item working against him there and that is the decide of lore of metal based spells and abilities.

As for winds it's the lore of light, Nehekhara, dark and great maw next wave.

The warlock uses warp lightning (6,4,3,5,1,4+2) and gets 5 hits 5 wounds (6,6,3,4,2) the skels make 4 saves (5,6,5,2,6) and 1 is fried. However Khatep uses his scroll and the Warlock fails his T test (6) and dies (4).
It's things like this that make me love these survival games. How epic is it to picture that scene go down!!!

As for purchases : The herald Nekaph, 120 points Front rank with the serpents. (causes a fear test on 3d6 and discard the lowest die I believe) and before the results were posted but after you rolled I asked for 20 skeletons, so i'd like to purchase those now for 160 points in the front row, discard however many skellies is necessary to fit them all in the front.

thanks! I'm quickly running out of space to put units :D

[Ron]

That savage in the front rank should have been fine on a +2 since the Savage Warboss has MR3.....

You lucked out with Festus there, Cames. I was wondering if anyone was going to have a problem with Windcatcher and "no armor=no wounding." :lol:

[Ron]

Yes as per usual if a magic item has an exhaust it must be rebought once it exhausts and because your goblin shamans hate him and made me forget about him till close combat.

[Ron]

I get crushed as usual however my archers still get to fire with no penalties bar smiting being stopped so lets see how the did.


Well, I could have used Miasma to lower their BS to 1, but forget it.

I do have a question though. The Exalted LoC can be a wizard of the Daemon Lore of Tzeentch or the Lore of Metal. However, it also has the "Loremaster: Daemon Lore of Tzeentch" special rule. Loremaster stats that you get all the spells of the Lore instead of rolling, so is it impossible for the Exalted LoC to use spells from the Lore of Metal?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

The way I read it you choose lore of Tzeentch you know all the spells you choose lore of metal you get 4 at random like usual.

[Dark Lord Foamy]

Wave 9

Front rank 100 Men At Arms Second rank 100 Peasant Bowmen Third Rank Trebuchet

VS everyone

Like throwing a litter of puppies into a wood chipper.

Nutshell

Aussie used dwellers to cause 88 bowmen to drop down and a chain lightning took out the trebuchet crew preventing me from doing anything.

VS Sneggy

The dwarves armour actually finally kicked into gear properly though the trebuchet scattering and missing helped.

VS Sinister

Casket killed the trebuchet crew and arrows just bounced off the snakes with their rerolls.

VS Ron

Peasants were nerfed like crazy but the trebuchet fired only to destroy itself. Thankfully the dice went poof again.

VS Cames

The archers got gatewayed into oblivion like the tomb kings and the trebuchet got transmogrfied leaving the men at arms to be slaughtered by the knights.

End of wave 9

You always get one wave that does nothing and this was it. Curse you trebuchet I was hoping to at least squish a goblin.

Oh well anyway the winds are sticking with the lore of shadow for the moment.

[Sinister]

30 more skels, 120 points

[Ron]

Well, time for more douchbaggery.

Move 8 Goblins from the 2nd rank to the 3rd.
Move the Great Shaman on the spider(and his Fulcrum) to the 2nd rank.
Add 3 Savage Orc Big'Uns with AHW in the 1st rank for 33 Points.
Add an Exalted Lord of Change with Lore of Metal to the first rank for 775 Points.
Replace the Dice on the Great Shaman for 150 points.

If the Fimirs use Miasma to get the enemy waves to WS1, the LoC's Barrage of Knowledge rule will drop them to WS0(it does not say "to a minimum of 1") thereby allowing them to get hit automatically. And he can throw +2 ward saves around like candy.

[Sinister]

where do you find the spells for the exalted greater daemons??

is just in the chaos book?

[Dark Lord Foamy]

where do you find the spells for the exalted greater daemons??

[Cames99]

Move the marauder horsemen to the front rank.

And add 100 marauders with flails to the second rank for 500pts (for an extra 100 S5 attacks)

[Sinister]

ok i checked out the spells, how would phantasmagoria affect fear tests???

and how would that interact with herald nekaphs special rule. If they both work together it would be 4D6 discard the two lowest?? This sounds like shananigans!

[Dark Lord Foamy]

It would stack.

Sorry guys no full details or fights today as I'm in what could be considered ah "be glad the schools and nurses who were responsible for fucking up a set of data given to my today so bad aren't standing next to me as I wouuld stake them to a wall, attach hooks to their ribs, attach the other end of the hooks to a F-13 and get it to take off ripping out most of their body and then dump the remains into a vat of nitric acid" kind of mood. Yeah seems even putting in a students year and ticking if they were vaccinated or not is rocket science to these people.

2 Treemen were burnt to death by the gateway curse you flaming attacks however as per usual the marauder horsemen were killed by the roots before I was chopped down by the knights.

You do realise that the strangle roots are a shooting attack so you were just on your basic ward save right?

[Ron]

You do realise that the strangle roots are a shooting attack so you were just on your basic ward save right?
