The Playtesters review the Lumineth Realm-Lords battletome for Warhammer Age of Sigmar. AUDIO ONLY

Published: Sat 20th Jun

On this episode of the Bad Dice podcast I am joined by 4 of the play testing team to chat about the new Warhammer Age of Sigmar Battletome: Lumineth Realm-Lords.

We cover Tecilis and all his abilities. The combos that can be found in the book. What armies are great against the Lumineth and where in the meta we think they will end up.

Initial impressions
The first Talking point is our initial impressions of getting the army on the table.
How the units interact with each other. What jumps out as being top picks and the general feel of the faction rules as a whole.

There are many new Age of Sigmar mechanics in the book so we talk about making the most of those new rules and fitting all the tricks into a list.

New rules that we really like are;

a spell that causes an opponent to spend double command points.
fighting twice in a row.
automatically casting spells.
shooting without seeing a target.

Lists and Play style
All the guests on the show have been playing with this army and have an idea of what they want to use in games.
we talk about where the power in those lists come from and the combos that you can spring on your opponent.

Teclis is a clear favourite and we cover how to play with and against him.

Here are some of the lists we talked about on the episode.
