I'm ok with disciples, although my plan was to RP suicidally grudge-focused Davi, not sure who the dwarfs might combo with. I guess an empire faction could theoretically work... We just mix and match the disciple nations however, but that takes away some from the WH atmosphere if say a chaos faction is paired with a non-chaos faction or whatnot. One idea might be to set up teams, and then set up nation pairs, and let teams pick their paired nations instead of the picks we have now - just a thought.

Disciples is good for me.

We'll close the sign-ups and see if we do teams of 2 or 3.

For now we have

sqeecoo With the Dwarves
Dayyālu with the Tomb Kings
Optimist with Nuln
Hag with Skaven
Popot with Bretonnia
Andnjord with Nurgle
Tanaka with Vampires
@Sinileva with ????

Being a Warhammer grog of the greatest caliber I presume we can pair the players by theme or go with Sqeecoo's idea, but I'd prefer if people truly get the nation they want to play as this is a less... competitive game and more of a "trust me Nurgle is broken and he's going to hellbless trust me bro"

So, if we go with team of two

Dwarves and Nuln
Nurgle and Skaven


The last picks leave me in a difficult spot, because canonically Tomb Kings and Vampires don't work with each other at all. Nor do Bretonnia and Tomb Kings. Tomb Kings don't canonically play well with anyone. *grumbles*

Let's see if we get more sign ups (even if eight players are more than enough) or if we have to go the Sqeecoo way.

I’ll have to look up if Nurgles Dominion causes issues in disciple games similar to Ermor and Co, if so I’ll pick a different chaos deity.

Also, I am 100% on board with thematic teams.

Im against thematic because teams can't really be formed with that other than empire plus dwarves and elves.

Is tzeentch fun in the warhammer mod? That's the only nation I'd want to try

I don't even know if the mod is fun! I've played it years ago and a thousand changes have happened. We're doing this for the funsies.

Chaos was kinda strong back then.

My knowledge is also old.

When I played Chaos was overpowered in a rush situation but imperial mages style on every other nation easily - Slann are simply too expensive.

Elves looked shit. Ogres were blood OP but that was nerfed in 6.

My main issue is banding Chaos factions as that creates a massive rush issue IMO.

I'm looking at tzeentch and the units look cool, but I don't see any custom pretenders? Edit: Yeah I wont be joining I kinda wanted a cool god to play with and only the orcs and skaven have one apparently. The units look cool though!

Should we take a break and come back to this in January at the very least? Codex III is still ongoing and Codex II seems to have broken the will to live of too many people to jump straight into another dominions game.

My cycle of suffering is somewhat over coming into the holidays.

No game planned during December then?

I'm ready and eager, but I'm travelling during Christmas so I'd prefer starting with the new year.
