[Goris]

I have one thing to say and I think it's a resounding statement. Thank you. From the ENTIRE Troll community. Let's get this stickied and get the original removed so we can continue with awesome.

[Jota]

Super! Wish I had a big Like-button!

[Lawso42]

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I added version history, Trollbood Toolbox visual companion at The Scrum, The Burrownomicon visual companion at The Scrum both by Celedor.

P.s. Anyone know how one would go about getting this thread stickied?

Lawso

[Goris]

PM a Mod. That usually works...

[PG_thegreatblah]

And Stickied... the Mods, you rock!

[PG_joedj]

If you think it's worthy for inclusion, please consider:

It's fluffy, but definitely as Trollblood-y as you can get!

[Goris]

I second this. It's really interesting and cool. I for one will be looking long and hard at it when I choose my name for the new IKRPG. Gunna be a fellcaller, awe yeah....

Great job, a handy addition to new and veteran players alike.

Hmm. Looks like there's some slots to fill out, crew!
Let's get writing!

I was guided here to ask assistance, I am extremely new, possessing only the fallowing
I have an impaler, 5 champions, a slag troll, a command group for the warriors, and 3 long riders
and was curious what my next step should be to make this a playable and functional army

Would it be possible to add the a link to the assembly guide for the Trollblood Battle Engine? I just got one and am trying to search for the info.

I'll see if I can dig it up.

Found it.

Could someone who has actually played with him start a Tactica for Mountain King?

I won't be using him until his model comes out (and then he is SO BOUGHT because I'm casual and don't care about stats much), and I'm wary of getting any theorymachining done.

I'd love to see a strong, objective write-up of the Mountain King and ways to use him. Particularly with a focus on larger games.

In fact, I'd love to see some advice for moving up to 75-100 point games anyway. I suck at those.

No small undertaking methinks. I have been working on a large game strategy post, maybe I'll put it on hold for something on the MK.

Of course it'd be big. I'd do it myself except it would be just more theorymachining, sadly. I'd love to read some detailed strategy from the guys who've tried him out, even if I'm wishlisting a bit here

[Goris]

Everyone who has play tested a Mountain King, please send me an email. Goris@trollbloodscrum.com I want to hear all of it. Skype calls for the particularly insightful bunch and anyone who donates $20 (from this point until Aug 3) gets a cameo on the podcast exclusively about he Mountain King.

A few quick comments:

1. I was recently on the Circle boards, and I was impressed by a thread that was stickied to their guide. It was about the "usual suspects" (caster/army combinations that give them fits). Any experienced players want to weigh in on this topic? I think it could help out to have a collection of possible responses to common problems (eGaspy, Harby, Old Witch, etc.).

2. It seems that the pDoomy guide needs to be updated. The thread seems to be unaware that Flanzer had quite a lot of success with the Tier 4 runeshaper list.
