Welcome to the Warhammer Armies Project, the home of the unofficial 9th Edition for Warhammer Fantasy Battles and the most popular unofficial army lists online. It will gradually be updated with new books in a rules-only format. It also serves as my hobby blog for my personal Warhammer collection.

There are a few bugs:
ReplyDelete-The Blood of Hashut describes wounding someone wearing heavy armor with a shield on a 4+ when it is 3+ now.
-Since 2+ saves against flaming attacks are now represented by Immunity (Flaming Attacks) you should make Blackshard armor reduce the strength of Flaming Attacks without a physical component by 1.
-The many greenskin units are listed as having Animosity instead of Hobgoblin Animosity.
-Choppas should be replaced with Strength Bonus (1).
-The Fear Elves special rule of Goblin slaves is not explained.
-The Furnace of Hashut upgrade should have the damage the Kollossus inflicts on itself Ignore Armor Saves since the flames bypass the armor due to being inside it.
-RAW the Blazing Body special rule inflicts a S4 hit on EVERY model on the field.
-The Hellshard Amulet fluff description says "The dark product of Drazhoath's own labours in diabolic crafts in ans the icy hate of his malice is caught and". The in ans doesn't make any sense.
-The Obsidian Blade has Armor Piercing (-2) instead of Armor Piercing (2).
-The Sorcerer Prophet says that it can be equipped with Blood of Hashut twice.
-I still think that Overlords and Despots should be able to exchange their Blackshard Armor for Frenzy and a Mark of Hashut.
Otherwise, it's a great update. I hope that Sega decides to hire you on as a consultant for Total War: Warhammer if they ever decide to expand the factions that are re-skins of the Empire and expand the map to factions without any crunch.
- Fixed.
Delete- Made it a 5+ ward instead, it's easier to keep track of.

- It does not really fit with they background, the Berzerkers are a warrior cult, not leaders.
Thanks! One could always hope, would be a pretty fun gig :)
The Greenskin units having regular animosity still isn't fixed. To clarify, they have animosity in the pages where their fluff and special rules are explained.
DeleteAlso, Orc Slaves and Black Orcs still have Choppas rather than Strength Bonus (1) in the unit costs/sizes section.
DeleteI'll admit, I still think that Blackshard Armor should be heavy armor with Granite Armor being Full Plate Armor since Infernal Guard do not seem to be any better armored than Hammerers and Longbeards. Lastly, the crew of various war machines are equipped with heavy armor despite the models making it look like they aren't wearing any armor. They should have no armor for every war machine except the hellcannon where the crew would wear medium armor.
DeleteHows does Immunity (Flaming Attacks) benefit infantry when it normally doesn't effect them unless they have the flammable special rule?
ReplyDeleteSpecifically the Zealot Berzerker.
DeleteThe intention any attack that is just fire and nothing else like the Lore of Fire, dragon breath, Naphtha bombs and fire throwers will never harm something with Immunity (Flaming Attacks). Granted, ambiguities with the rules will make it arguable which attacks don't have any physical component.
DeleteI have clarified what attacks are non-physical now.
DeleteRemember to do so for the Lore of Fire and every other army book.
DeleteI just wanted to say I'd be careful with the "non-physical" addition here... While it clarifies things in this case, it can very easily start a lot of confusion in other areas later... It can also force a going through of all army books again for clarification purposes, and would be something you would always be forced to keep in tha back of your mind when dealing with fire related damage later...
DeleteThe Hobgoblin Khan has on Page 56 and 106 Ini4, but of Page 96 Ini5!
ReplyDeleteThe Great Taurus has on Page 77 a Strengh 4 Flamming Attack, but of Page 94 a Strengh 5!
Fixed both, thanks!
DeleteZealot Berserker, Magma Cannon, Deathshrieker Rocket Launcher, Dreadquake Mortar, Zhatan the Black, Astragoth, Ghorth the Cruel, Drazhoath, Rykarth and Hothgar have the Special Rule "Resolute"? But its removed from the Army special rules!
ReplyDeletehell-forged artifact, dark mace of deatn hits models and olso their mounts, is not possible in 9th right?
ReplyDeletetaur'ruk has medium armor for equipment but in the options he can change heavy into blackshard armor
ReplyDeleteHi, how is it when Devastatators shoot?
ReplyDeleteDo you calculate W3 times the number of units in the regiment like the Legion of Azgorh? So one unit out of 20 chaos dwarves = 20 x D3?
Or do only the front 2 rows count like with crossbows or muskets?
