r/Fyreslayers

hey everyone!

so I am a few games, like 10 or so, and starting to understand the game more. I think I have gotten some significant thing wrong. can someone help me out?

1.) when you use emergence on a unit turns out that is on the hero phase, not the movement phase. does that mean the unit can move as normal?

2.) does battle damage on a magmadroth lower the attacks from 6 to 4 or raise the attacks from 4 to 6? I have been playing it raises to 6 for some reason. I think because of the way the prayer wrath of vulcatrix is written When I first started I assumed you get stronger with more damage.

3.) With the SoG runeson on magmadroth, does the +1 damage from fire, blood, and vengeance make the runefathers attacks stronger or the SoG runeson +1 damage?

4.) I still have no idea why anyone would take broad axes over pole axes and sling shields over fyresteel weapons. whats the point of a battlesmith? Seems terrible. Same with a doom seeker or a runes on foot. What am I missing? Is it something along the lines of “those heroes just aren’t that good so no one takes them” sort of thing we have going on?

edit: 5.) can manifestations use command points like for power through or reroll a charge? I never have but I just saw something that made me think otherwise.

please help and if there are general rules that I am missing or other things that are super confusing please let me know.

I know they didn't disappear, but we haven't heard anything in a while now. Around December-January we heard rumors left and right, and since then, there hasn't been anything new. So what happened?

I almost finished to paint my spearhead box, and before buying more I want to know what to expect for his future ? I know magmaroth are safe and stuff, but I don’t want to go all in if this army goes to a path i don’t like.
When the announces should come approximately ?

hi there so I always had the intention to buy an army for a few years now and only have a few models so far. I saw recently there’s been talk of the fyreslayers being rebranded/merged into a new dwarf faction and being discontinued. If it’s true then it’s to the doomgron for me then lol.

Hi everyone,

My brother has been wanting to get a full 2k point army in Age of Sigmar for a while, after playing spearhead for a bit. The army that appealed to him the most was Fyreslayers. I told him about some of the rumors surrounding the army, but even then he decided Magmadroths were way too cool to pass up.

I know very little about Fyreslayers myself, so I was wondering if anyone had any good Magmadroth-focused lists, general tips, or advice for getting started with the army. Any help would be appreciated!

hey everyone.

Like the title suggests I am wondering if an infantry list is possible and is at least semi-effective. I have five magmadroths, over 80 other fire slayers, and a ton of characters. what would an effective infantry list look like? I feel like we rely too much on magmadroth spam and I wanted to just try something different.

Would MSU be better or large blobs with less drops? What are your thoughts?
