Well, some love is better than no love I guess. I think the list is fine right now (except for some small things), though I'd like to see some new magic items in order for CD characters to go toe to toe with other characters (*cough* chaos *cough* high elf...ahem pardon me).
If we did get a WD List, it would definitely signal the end of using Chaos Dwarfs in the GT (not that I mind though). Blood Angels are useable so they might be some hope.
The WD blood angel army list was specifically to allow them to be used in the UK GT.[/i]
Yes it was. Also I quite like converting these stunties as it has given me a new life in the hobby. To be honest anything CD I would love to see and if its another White Dwarf Presents: CD so be it.
I seem to remember reading in one of the WDs that the BA list is designed more to keep people appy untill the official codex comes out, perhaps that will happen for CDs...
i would love to see a new list to make them more in line with the abilities of the other races (you have to admit we are lagging behind a bit) no t5 characters, not a huge selection of magic items, no spell list of our own, no relentless!!!
heres hoping, as long as gav "the destroyer of codexes" thorpe does not do it
Whats wrong with Gav?
Hasnt there been rumours that he's doing the rumoured '09 book?
i cant really see the point of comparing chaos dwarves to blood angels. blood angels were the most popular space marine army when i first started my gaming career some 15 years ago, and are still in the top four now. I think that the fact they will get a codex AS WELL AS the white dwarf articles isnt an implication the same will happen for us, it is likely to be one or the other. Of course i wouldnt complain about getting anything.
Gav is wrighting a CD book right now, and when i talked to hin he didn't mention it was a WD article
I agree with uzkul there, it can be a battle winner to pass leadership tests. I think heroes inside units are hard enough to kill anyway.
werit, i talked to Gav himself 3 months ago at games workshop HQ and asked, and he said it was in the works for mid 2009, so that makes me happy so please don't go popping my bubble
its good that there will be one, as for gav take a look at the chaos codex for 40k, imho and that of most of the gaming club where i am its a complete shambles
I think he was referring to the "nerfing" of the new Chaos Codex.
For my own part I'd just take a update to the PDF rules, I really do not need a full blosn army book. The list is only lacking in a few areas, but not glaringly so. In now particular order: A wider selection of magic items (particularly banners), a upgrade for chaos dwarf warriors to Immortals ala the Longbeards in the standard dwarf list and perhaps the return of "lava magic" from the old 4th/5th edition days.
I wouldn't say Lava Magic is that needed as Fire forfills the same role, more or less. Burning Head is exactly like one of the Lava spells anyway.
DoomRoar looked like a good chuckle.
Perhaps we could use a few of the Lava spells as magic items? Going back to Doom Roar as an example it'd be an effective Enchanted Item.
May I point you to the Dogs of War list? Unless you could the two dozen they got for an Italian GT.
By Hashut, I think we have less than the Gnoblars.
