Ranking ALL One-Box Bespoke Warbands for Warcry

[@OffMetaMusings]

Turns out not only Darkoath don't exist but also Rotmire Creed! Rotmire Creed are average in this format I think with only the one Bloated One though the Witherlord has some real good burst damage to him with the injection. I think that they've been outpaced somewhat by the newer teams so I'd be tempted to put them bottom of B-Tier.

Splintered Fang also got a really good battle trait, a free use of Poisoned Attacks each round, an ability that really allows them to do much better against high toughness opponents than their stats would suggest.

Nice video, hope GW keeps trying to “improve” bespoke against compendium

[@OffMetaMusings]

wow! many thanks for this! I've updated the video with all the timestamps :)

[@nicklaslundstrom7924]

Well my Facebookguess before watching was: "1 KMK, 2 Iron Golems, 3 Vulkyn, 4 Questor, 5 Gorgers, 10: the rest! (Poor huanchis)". So close-ish! I think Taruntulos deserve the Vexmor rating though, and Untamed should be B!

[@flaviomast]

Hope that GW buff Claws of Karanak for warcry 3.0. They are the only warband that I owned the minuatures are so cool 😂

[@OffMetaMusings]

Yeah it's a real shame that their 'thing' just didnt turn out to be all that good as a strategy

[@ŁukaszGatkowski]

Finally a video on one of the best formats of the game🙂 I hate allies they ruin the game for me as everybody just takes the strongest models so my group only plays one box format or 2 boxes but you can only have one leader and for me thats where the game is at its best

[@OffMetaMusings]

GW have been working on bringing things more in line but there is definitely some ways to go yet :)

[@MrEyescream]

Yesterday i played two games against Skaven with my Trueblades. And sadly it fits what you said. The second game was fun since we had the twist that each unit with half or less HP gained 2 strength and attacks. The skaven gnawed right through my low toughnes and made them half life in one go, but then the buffed backlash kicked them right out of the field. But those two extra attacks pointed out the problem, low amount of attacks. With this buff, all skills felt much more impactfull.

[@OffMetaMusings]

I kind of feel like they need a battle trait something like; Martial Coordination: If this fighter is within 1" of another friendly figher. This fighter adds 1 to its attacks characteristic. It would solve the attacks issue and encourage mono-trueblades builds, giving them the attacks to actually do things without actually being busted thanks to needing a buddy all the time.

[@MindlessFocus]

Looks like Scions are OOP. Corvus are also no longer available from GW (US site) as well. I’ve got an Orruk war and I’m waiting on. I’m also thinking of getting a Splintered Fang and doing just a one box bespoke with them.

[@OffMetaMusings]

I kind of like splintered fang. It's a shame that the snakes arent as good as tarantulos spiders though :(

[@themapsguy]

Somehow missed this and now I see you dissing my bois! (You can keep the snakes diss though they're in am awful place atm)

[@OffMetaMusings]

! I thought he wouldn't notice!

[@themapsguy]

Even the algorithm succumbs to the godspeaker's visions eventually

[@Pokephantom]

S'how I play! Thanks for the vidya!

[@OffMetaMusings]

Enjoy!

[@ianfalzonmoon]

I respect your opinion but I think you are mistaken about the untamed (I've played them alot). They have diverse flavourful abilities, a good new trait and can dish out some damage, force pull opponents, have decent movement themselves. What is not to like? B+ at least 😉

[@OffMetaMusings]

Hah, maybe next time :)

They also look awesome!

[@michaelseldritch]

Darkoath Savagers are a thing

[@OffMetaMusings]

Never!

[@hirostroud]

Wildercorps feel too highly rated, but might just be my local meta. Strength 3 on everything is a struggle (and how is the ballista only strength 4?)

[@OffMetaMusings]

I think even taking the ballista into account, if you build wildercorps only axes on the scouts, spears on everything else, double xbow and dog lord; It's a real good warband in most cases.

[@Rawilow]

3:16 everyone is fast? Leader is a bullet, yes, but other than the Ascended at M5, 7 of your fighters are M4

[@OffMetaMusings]

Very good point. M5 on the ascended ones is still pretty fast though :)

[@Rawilow]

@@OffMetaMusings but only 1 ascended per box =/

[@AndrzejRaven]

You forget Rotmire creed

[@OffMetaMusings]

Yeah i remembered later! Rotmire Creed are average in this format I think with only the one Bloated One though the Witherlord has some real good burst damage to him with the injection. I think that they've been outpaced somewhat by the newer teams so I'd be tempted to put them bottom of B-Tier.

[@01eksii]

uhhhh, faction timecodes wouldve been apprecieated

[@battlebarn6336]

Why don't you be the change you want to see in the world and post some

[@_myst_4267]

Then make them yourself, lazy bones.

[@ocean7119]

​@@battlebarn6336it's better for them to be integrated into the video

[@jakew5115]

What I took away from all this is if you are shirtless and muscular then you are BORING.

[@OffMetaMusings]

Tl;dr PUT A SHIRT ON!

[@Coolduff.]

No rotmire?

[@OffMetaMusings]

D'oh! I totally forgot! Rotmire Creed are average in this format I think with only the one Bloated One though the Witherlord has some real good burst damage to him with the injection.
