Great focus video!. Tomb Kings was my first army too and my favorite faction. Weak troops, command roll and range, no initiative can be frustrating when you're having a bad dice roll day, but they looked great in their ancient Egyptian motif just standing still. 😀

[@andrewshaw6063]

Loved it. Other factions please.

Review for Warmaster army it is we all need for the long time! Great work! Waiting for more armies reviews!

[@newtpondskipper]

My first Fantasy army and still one of my favorite factions no matter how bad they were treated in 8th edition.

[@Undredlafirme]

Great video. ;) The music wasn't so loud, it's perfect.

[@christophevandeneynde4252]

Great video's, and No doubt on the 'Raise Dead the most powerfull spell for WM'! it add 3 stands and 6 Attacks, but also if they are raised on the rear of ennemies they also nullify 3 attacks and cut the retreat ways! on a 5+ to cast. With the Skull chukka's 4+ to confuse and Doom and despair blocking the charges, ... in my opinion one of the most powerfull army if played properly, a real nightmare :)

This is really great. Will definitely show to new players.

[@NetherworldStudio]

That was super useful! More factions please :)

[@yoye101]

great work!

[@Jan_Tabletop]

Nice Overview. Thanks!

[@LarsLeonhard]

Great stuff mate !! I would love to see a faction focus for Araby (every faction actually) Having just listened to the end; I think you just opened my eyes for Tomb Kings. I always thought of them as the most boring faction, but maybe I should put them higher the painting queue... :) I got all armies except Dark Elves, but sadly they have been neglected for a while..

[@damianarvizu1095]

Me too... Although I would prefer to see orcs, next. The only 2 that I DON'T need to see are Chaos and High Elves.

[@LarsLeonhard]

@@damianarvizu1095 I agree High Elves might be a bit vanilla and straight-forward, but I do think Chaos has some hidden challenges and opportunities. :)

[@offroadturkey]

wheres the best place to get the armies? Do they all require a 3d printer? Also Im loving all the content!

wmrexperimental.freeforums.net/thread/10 This forum post has a list of alternate miniature manufacturers. Off the top of my head you can purchase from polar fox, black gate, eureka, pendraken, kallistra, cromarty forge, magister militum, all of which do 10 mm ranges.

Wish I could find chariot stl files to finish my tomb kings.

[@andrewshaw6063]

Just buy from Polar Fox.

[@boonchiun]

This is inspiring. I have a Tomb Kings army for WFB and its cool to see its template. Is there a modern TK list with Ushabti or Tomb Guard? I migtht start a 10mm TK army because of this temptation. 🤣

[@iainmstanding]

Not an official list but there is a fan made list with ushabti and tomb guard that I published. wmrexperimental.freeforums.net/thread/64/alternate-tomb-kings-list

[@konatelassina5301]

Since Warmaster was created, the TK have been more fleshed-out as a faction in WH Fantasy. Are their any units created during this fleshing-out that would play a unique role in the army that you would like to see added to the TK Army Selector? If any, what would they be? Or, are they just fine as initially created?

[@iainmstanding]

I've created an alternative army list with ushabti and tomb guard. You can see it in the experimental forum. wmrexperimental.freeforums.net/thread/64/alternate-tomb-kings-list

[@konatelassina5301]

@@iainmstanding I like this experimental list better than the OG list. Spear throwers and zombie dragons do not fit TK in my mind. This is the list I will be using, and will house rule something for Tomb Scorpions; I just think it suits the army superbly.

[@mordoten]

Great job! Thanks!

[@peterfiser]

Audio is choppy. Only for me?

[@johnloy9331]

Question about command range that we haven't figured out from the rules: Since the Tomb King has range for the entire battlefield, does that mean he does not pay a penalty for units more than 20 away? Conversely, can the Liche Priests only give orders to units within 20? Thanks

[@iainmstanding]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2TCiWh8ZcqGZ80 This video will answer your questions. Command distance penalties apply to all characters, even the general. Priests can only order units within 20cm.

@@iainmstanding Many thanks, now things are making more sense. Keep up the good work
