Hmmm FM with AG or EL... now that would wind up being broken. The trolls and big guns in AG are slow for a reason, they are very nasty. When you suddenly give them 10-12" FM they will rule the battle fields again. Take for instace the conquest game at GenCon. The guy who used ALL trolls was beaten because he had reduced speed. Imagine if he had forced march. Boom! That guy would have been unbeatable. Swarm the dragons, swarm the rammers, swarm everything!

Shudders

Anyhow... That is my own POV... Trolls are just nasty. So when you look at this figure, look at him in this fashion... all your hero Trolls can now move at his FM.... be happy with that happy little thought.

If it is true that he is realley BPR that would be interesting.

Is this true or just a rumor?

As I have not recieved him yet I cannot confirm that although it would fit in the story at least

well we will wait to see

He's indeed BPR, not a rumor.

The info is on the WK site, look at the beggining of the thread.

Arbaal;

While it's true that all troll hero's may now move at the amazing and happy speed of ten....how are you going to afford to play them in rebellion? I don't use my troll hero's because I can't field all of them at the same time (and make them playable) and I can't use any single one of them with my EL trolls befcause they don't move in formation. IN the end...they sit in the bottom of my box looking foward to the day they can see the light again.

One single EL FM unique is not going to break the game. But it would make trolls much more usable. There is a reason the fellow that used a all troll army got slaughtered in conquest. You can't move fast enough to do anything. That is the whole reason many of us want a EL FM, so we can play trolls again. When was the last time you saw a troll brawler fielded? Why, they are just too slow. Same reason no one ever used dwarfs...too slow. Now they have Shim-ran to truck around a group (just imaging that babe with some rotary fusers) and some nons to make them move atleast 8 inches (which would be a massive improvement for trolls) and dwarfs are becomming seriously concidered for play again.

That is all EL wants, to be able to use tolls again. Is that really to much to ask?

It's not too much to ask for a single unique, no, I do agree with you there, but the moment you get that one unique there will be many cries for a non-unique figure with FM.

I find that the FM figs come in waves.... We all know that the KI was in dire need of FM. And they Received it in overabundance.

What I want to see is a re-emergence of the Shyft! Bring out some decent Shyft figures. Make them worthwhile to play!

Can't go wrong in trying to fix the shyft. Great concept for a faction, but just didn't really work out that way. Two expensive for not enough thrill.

But new shift coudl be lots of fun...especially with some of the new MS that came out in minions and that will come out in pyrimids.

I'll happily use Habulandroika (41 pts) with a swarm of Shadows or other MS... heck even a regular Bond Maker rocks with them....

I would love to see some Shyft Heavy hitters though, with good range

shut up, u guys #####in about EL boo hoo doesnt have FM. what about NS huh? most of the shock troops for the NS have 6 move and no range. sure we got some fast movers for flying and such but majority of our regular troops cant move for #### and thus cant really swarm. boo hooo EL doesnt have FM boo hoo.

If you want to include a NS FM'er in your wishlist, be my guest. But please don't be rude to those of us who have a liget grevence about trolls and how slow they are. People complained about how slow dwarves were and Wizkids listened. Were hopeing they will do the same for us, that's all.

Frankly, there are some great NS peices that could use a speed pick me up too. But NS has some more immediate concerns to fix. like better necro units if necro is going to stay competive (if it ever really was). The darkwing zombie is a good start, but adding some skeletons to the NS forces would be a nice touch too. But that's just additional things on my wishlist.

My comrad Ebola, with stealth in abundance in the Sect, who needs to walk fast. We Necro rules the air. We have a 14-inch formation movement with the Fell, reaper and banshee kind. Let our stealth brothers remain behind for support.

All I want is necro commons with levitation and our own skeleton.

But that's seem to big a dream as EL would have their FM.

Unfortunatly while we are in agreement about what we would like for the NS and EL, the only thing we have to show for our efforts is....the troll zombie.

Truly, we should be able to work together better then that. Oh wait, I forgot, we have the Corupted Priest...so, that's better I suppose.

Perhaps we need to combine our efforts into a NS/EL FM elete warrior...while were dreaming ofcourse....that could finally heal the great rift between our two glorious factions.

Ofcourse, you'd have to give back Kossak Mageslayer...
