R n r n Well the new book is out, I 'm holding one in my hands, it 's time to start discussing the new Lizardmen Tactics for 8th Edition. R n r nI 'll kick things off by just going over the Slann and how it will likely affect our builds. R n r n Slann r n r nOk, lets start by going over everything that 's happened to it.

R n r n The Nerfs: r n- More expensive r n- No free disciplines r n- No more 'Cupped Hands of the Old Ones' r n- Focused Ruminations does not get you a free casting die every time you try and cast a spell. Now it gives you 2 extra channeling dice r n- Becalming now allows you to reroll a dispel attempt once each round instead of eliminating a wizards 6 's. R n- Soul of Stone now makes the Slann Etheral, but he can 't join units and is unstable too. R n- You can no longer be loremaster of any lore you want, just High magic. R n- Also, with the lack of ways to dump a miscast as you can 't guerentee having the Lore of Life 's 'Throne of Vine' spell and the lack of any Cupped Hands makes using temple guard with a Slann very dangerous. R n r n Buffs the Slann got: r n- Not only does he have access to High Magic, but High Magic for Lizardmen allows the Slann to swap a Lore of High Magic spell for a random spell from any lore in the Warhammer Rule book, provided you cast the spell. This gives it a huge amount of versatility as you can go into a game with High Magic and switch over to say Lore of Metal by then end (say against Chaos Warriors) or Lore of Light (against Undead).

This gives the Slann a LOT of flexibility. R n- Most of the Disciplines are much cheaper now. Basically, the cost increase really only makes the 'Double Slann' armies unviable, but it allows you to bring one very tooled up Slann to the fight. R n- It does have the new discipline that allows it to take the signature spell of every single lore in the rulebook. R n r n Overall this means the following r n- For 2500pt games and lower, Double Slann army lists are no longer viable tournament options.

R n- Without a way to dump miscasts easy, I can 't see Temple Guard actually guarding the Slann. They are still to valuable to have blown up if the Slann miscasts. R n- I 'd say now the best bet for the Slann is to put him into Ethrael Mode and run him solo. Have the Temple Guard act as their own unit, if you want to run them at all. Then load him up with all of the key disciplines. R n- The Slann no longer dominates the magic phase, but for tournaments he can theoretically get any spell he needs for any situation. Going up against Chaos Warriors and you can quickly switch out for Metal, for example.

Remember most High Magic spells are only 8+, making them easy to cast on 2 dice. R n- Also now that we can take all the signature spells in the main rulebook, and telepathy works for both Magic Missiles and Direct Damage Spells, using Telepathy suddenly became more viable. This gives us effectively 4 of those spells to spam out against our enemies in their cheap version, or use them in their expensive ones for 'special' enemies. Free solidworks model library. R n r n r n r n r n r n r n r n. R n r n Remember in the new rules the slann does not have to stay in temple guard unit, best of both worlds! Stay safe army phases from cannons and then when you want to unleash 6 dice monkey spells leave the unit!

NI think harmonic convergence plus the channeling staff is just too good not to do coupled with reservoir of eldritch energy means still should generate 2-4 extra power dice a phase, and that 's not to be sniffed at! N nI 'm going to try skaven pelt banner either on the toad or the scar vet bsb to see how frenzied temple guard or Saurus do, if we have to pursue anyway more attacks is always helpful!
