About this deal

This collection of dim but mighty Troggoths remains affected by The Bad Moon’s Orbit like any Gloomspite Gitz army. As the celestial object crosses the board it grants the Moonlit Hide trait to Troggoths it effects, but the biggest change is that Trugg’s Malfunctioning Leystone emits an Aura of Haywire Magic which applies all of those random effects to every single unit. The troll hag is cool as a model, but not exactly something I want to paint or field as it's a bit rank (which is impressive for a miniature), so what I'd likely do is get a Dankhold and get converting; I'm thinking of a hood over its face that covers its eyes and some shamanistic additions. Along with a 120mm base of course. Not a case of it might be cheaper, it's just the aesthetics. So I've been playing around with the numbers a bit and I feel like there are three questions which have to be asked when going into a list.

This isn’t a terribly long article because there just isn’t a lot here. The fluff is pretty much what you’d expect, just a bunch of dudes having fun causing mayhem, and the rules aren’t anything we haven’t seen before but they’re powerful and are new for the Gloomspite Gitz. The plodding procession following Trugg contains all sorts of special Troggbosses which can be represented by the Traits of Trugg’s Troggs and Dankhold Detritus – that’s command traits and artefacts to you. The former can even affect Unique units, meaning Ceaseless Growth can boost Regeneration and Greater Regeneration even further on Trugg, making him near impossible to put down. The second and most important reason is that for the first time we can now field a 100% Troggoth army and this needs to be celebrated! Da Bad Moon gives us another blessing yet again! Not two months after the last Tome Celestial, we get another one, and for Gloomspite Gitz again! Last time it was The Jaws of Mork aimed at the popular mascot of the Gloomspites, the Squigs. This time, the other, less appreciated mascot, the Troggoths get to shine. These sentient mushrooms are beasts of destruction, focused only on eating and napping and then whatever it takes to get one of those two things. With the newest White Dwarf you can field your own squad of them for a decidedly different type of playstyle from the normal gitz lists.Daemon Prince • Familiar • Fury • Khornate ( Bloodletter • Bloodthirster) • Nurglite ( Great Unclean One • Nurgling • Plaguebearer) • Slaaneshi ( Daemonette • Keeper of Secrets) • Soul Grinder • Tzeentchian ( Gaunt Summoner • Horror of Tzeentch • Lord of Change) • Verminlord

Aelementor ( Cloud-Spirit • Spirit of the Mountain • Spirit of the Wind) • Flamegheist • Living Land • Shadow Daemon • Spite As for the battalion, even at 2k it's too expensive, even if you factor in that 50 points of Command Point. The extra item is cool, but again I'd rather have more trolls as they'll be doing more damage than natural 6s to wound ever will provide. As this is a bit of a unique case for the destruction forums I'm going to layout a few basic things as to what sort of lists go here and what goes in the main Gloomspite thread. Trugg’s Troggherd is just one of the four Armies of Renown in Reign of the Brute. To supersize your experience, try King Brodd’s Stomp, which unites all of the strongest Mega-Gargants under Brodd’s heel. Alternatively, there’s the Grundstok Expeditionary Force, which applies overwhelming pressure to its foes with Thunderers and Grundstok Haulers. Just like their cave-dwelling counterparts, these troggoths have preternaturally fast metabolisms that allow them to regenerate wounds at an alarming rate.Found in the realm of Hysh it seems, this grants a 5+ Feel No Pain for mortal wounds for the bearer. Troggoths are already tanky so this is in line with their M.O. Battalion: Stomping Megamob The kit also features a crew of grots for reloading and general maintenance, so the orruk operator can focus on making those lethal aimed shots. Discussions of lists which don't have Dankhold Troggbosses as generals or all the Troggoth battleline are fine. As long as the list itself is trogg focused. Dust-Gargant • Ghurish Gargant • Mason-Gargant • Mega-Gargant • Mere-Gargant • Moss Gargant • Sky-Titan • Storm Gargant • Ulguan Gargant The first choice is to grab a Hag, if we do that shes basically points, combined with the 2 Troggbosses that's a whopping 1k points gone on just your 3 hero options.
