Ebay, your pretty much guaranteed to sell. Lot of people sold off the figs in the previous box sets without issue.

My Tomb Kings are officialy unplayable with this rules, unless a new Books comes out, like soon.

by **rokassan** Mon May 17, 2010 12:56 pm

Dont worry Luis Im sure a new book and figures will be out, but can you afford them?

by **ShadowMaster** Mon May 17, 2010 1:01 pm

Keep you head up Luis. I have a good feeling TKs are getting big love soon.

by **rokassan** Mon May 17, 2010 1:27 pm

Luis loves "BIG" love. Remember that prison in Cuba Luis? Wink

by **rokassan** Mon May 17, 2010 1:27 pm

This why you two guys have some of the highest message post on this forum. You go off topic all the time.

How does Luis gay sexual adventures in prison and Rok's secret police gay club add anything to the gaming community?

Now back on topic, how does the new edition destroy Fantasy.

TOMB KING ANALYSIS
Character cap of 25% would be devistating considering the requirements to field a TK for core chariots and the mandatory heirophant. Currently TK NEED all 4 characters to function on a competitive level.

Special slots will be tight on points if you run Tomb Guard blocks or Ushabti. Slot limits and duplication rules prevent Scorpion spam ( Twisted Evil

6 fit into 25% at 2250)

All rare options easily fit within the 25%

The magic changes wouldn't impact tomb kings on the casting side, since they don't technically use spells. New limits to magic D may enhance the TK magic phase.

Luis, trust my cynical judgment, GW would do nothing to interfere with TK sales (so you should be safe), unless of course for some unknown reason TK have fallen into a version of Dark Eldar curse.

Without our characters, the TK wont work, no matter if we can take 6 Scorpions. Heck, i would have to be forced to use a bared Tomb Prince and a naked Lice Priest.
I hope a codex comes out soon. One army that will benefit is my O&Gs, characters are cheap, and those Horde rules sound pretty damn nice.

I'm sure the new army selection based on percentages will work somehow. Have some faith Razz

Our emissary to the Land of the Rising Sun makes an appearance ! Sup mat !
Your Lizard men are gonna get screwed with that 25% character selection ... muhahahaha Twisted Evil

by Kyle Tue May 18, 2010 8:25 am

Pretty much going to make a nice boost to the Orc & Gobbos, so I'm fine so far Razz

by **ShadowMaster** Tue May 18, 2010 8:35 am

I think the 25% cap on specials and rares is correct. I think the 25% minimum core is correct. I don't think the 25% character cap is accurate.

It's true, folks have mouths.... Yet another warm and wet opening. Back to the wall won't accomplish much there.

by **ShadowMaster** Sat May 22, 2010 9:32 pm

To be safe and insure I stay playable I pulled some swaps for more Tomb King core. I'm covered for 8th edition, but if they move Chariot units to Special in the new book I'll be screwed.

by Dakai Wed May 26, 2010 11:10 pm

In a way i can not wait to see what happens

by **Ovich** Thu May 27, 2010 5:08 pm

I can't see how they will force you to be no more than 25% for characters.
That would make all characters over 562.5 points in a 2250 list unplayable.

A lot of armies have characters over 562 points right? Let's see

Holeck
Archaon
Lord Croak
Malekith

That's just a few right, aren't there at least like 10 characters that are over 562 points by themselves. ?
