Justin is joined in the studio by Mike and Kev to get a first look at the new Hordes Gargantuans book, kicking off with the Trollbloods faction.
So what do you guys think? Have the Trollbloods kept pace with the rest of the factions, or do you think they need more big beasts?

This is excellent entertainment while painting. Good job guys!
Looking good. Wish natural looking larger models were implanted into 40k
like the sound of all this but honestly don’t see how the mountain king is the worst gargantuan it’s sheer survivability has let it mulch every other gargantuan at my local club!
Well @nazghallion I to felt a lack luster with the new book release for the trollbloods as compared to my cryx for example or even my skorne… Then I played a 50 pt. game against one of our local press gangers down at the LGS. He had this ridiculous combo using the Mountain King Hoarluck doomshaper stone scribes w/ elder and runeshaper unit. Anyway He ripped through my cryx list sporting Kraken and new asphyxious model along with pistol wraiths death jack and full unit of bane thralls… I was rolling good but could not stop him from rolling me…… Read more »
New trolls seem to be rather good additions. As Legion player I kinda find that sightless eye guy that trolls get funny. From gargantuans Mountain King is my second favorite after Archangel.
Very interesting. Need to break out my Trolls and play.
Well I will post a mistake I made here. Warlock units CAN have a unit attachment. I misread sorry
Kev
was thinking of starting a troll force, something about all that beer.
Trolls look cool, but I already have a fledgeling Legion force as well as Skorne and some Minions to paint up for Hordes. Not to mention having Protectorate of Menoth, Cryx, some Cygnar and Mercenaries for Warmachine. Warlockunits sound cool.
Trolls are always an impressive army and look amazing fully painted on the table.
And don’t forget that if you purchase whelps, you actually make 2 every time he’s hit. With the troll buffs, I think the big guy is awesome. And what a gorgeous model. Hail to the King, baby!
I’m really hanging on getting my hands on the Mountain King kit, always love the Trollblood models!
Arrrgh! May now have to start Troll army to go with my Circle boys. Love that Mountain King.
Sweat! I gotta see more. As someone totally new to Hordes and Warmachine, my interest is drawn in on how the models interact to form challenging strategy and tactical variations. I want to learn more about the game and get advice about picking a faction, building a starter army based on solid game mechanics.
There is a starter game demo later in the week with battle box. So it is starter box vs starter box.
Oh Gargatuants and trpllayers… man what a story. Before the release of the book and some leaks out there most of the trollplayers were crying about the new releases. And if you compare the troll releases with the others, they feel a bit lackluster. But~ trollbloods still get awsome thinks. First of, of course, it’s Hunters Grim. Really good Warlock Unit, a lot of “inbuild” utility and buff. So most of the times you don’t need a unit of KrieslStoneBearers. His key is also Mortality. It’s not an upkeep, which is a really good thing! You can cast it up… Read more »
On a personal note: Please check out the Mountain King that I uploaded on minirama. And please vote and leave a comment. Thank you ;D
trollbloods down up to the next faction
How can you not want to play Trollololol after this
This video is great. I am a new trollblood player and it really helps when people talk you through some of the interactions. Good job guys keep it up.
Oh and the hunters grim models are awesome. They are the reason i started trollbloods as a faction
Hmm, Indiana “Troll” Jones?
There is so much going on with gargantuans, maybe one of them deserves painting tutorial
Oh I see, I need to get into Hordes.. just awesome stuff!
It’s a shame such a cool model seems so unliked. I like that mountain king!
@warzan must be kicking himself missing out on all the “giving you something to worry about in your rear”
Have a friend who loves his trolls and the new additions.
