Starting out with the Leagues of Votann in 10th

Is the Leagues of Votann currently a good army to start with for a new 40k player, and how would you go about building a collection from scratch, whether its your 10th army or you're just getting into the hobby? Read on for my thoughts on these things.

Stratagems of the Kin, chapter 1: Offensive strats of the core rules

In this new series of posts, I'll be having a look at the stratagems available to Leagues of Votann armies in 10th edition 40k, both from the core rules and from the index. We'll start out by looking at those stratagems from the core rules that can be deemed offensive, or in other words "meant to increase or enhance damage output in some way".

Uthar - Destined for the shelf?

Uthar the Destined, only named character of the Leagues of Votann, seems like he could become a pretty cool character in the lore. But what's with his rules in the 10th edition index?

The Void is in our Veins

In which a Kin Voidmaster aids an Imperial cartographer in returning to Far-space.

Being the first in what is intended to be a series of fan-fiction short stories about the Leagues of Votann, inexpertly crafted to fill  the void while we're waiting for Games Workshop and their Black Library to give us more official lore. 

Disclaimer: My short stories will take liberties and make assumptions with the lore we have, but are intended to be in line with official lore at the time of writing. I apologize in advance for all mistakes.  


Sagitaur weapons in the 10th index

My favorite model in the Leagues of Votann range has to be the Sagitaur. It is, to put it quite simply, cute. It is also pretty good in the 10th edition index. But what is its best weapons loadout?

The Grimnyr in 10th

Since the 10th edition Leagues of Votann index was released, several people have talked about the Grimnyr being bad, mostly because he can only give his +1 Toughness buff to Hearthkyn. To quote the good people over at The Art of War 40k: "Garbage". And they probably know better what they're talking about than me. Even so, I'm not entirely sure they are right. Let's have a closer look.

Hearthkyn Special Weapons

A squad of Hearthkyn Warriors can take two out of a long list of special weapons. But which ones are best?

Kahl loadouts

 The Mighty Kahl. Probably the most valuable character in the 10th edition Leagues of Votann index, the Kahl is primarily a buffing character, handing out judgement tokens, making his squad inflict lethal hits and helping out with invulnerable saves or deepstriking abilities. But what about his weapons?

More games played, demons and marines

 Had two more 1000 point games today, against demons and marines. See how it went!


Lethality vs Mortality 2: Another look at Lethal Hits interacting with Devastating Wounds

Since the 10th edition Leagues of Votann index came out, there have been several discussions about the lack of synergy between the Lethal Hits ability (auto-wound on a critical hit) given by a Kahl when he's leading a unit, and the Devastating Wounds ability (mortal wounds on a critical wound) on Volkanite weapons (which he can take himself, or be carried by a Hearthguard squad he leads). Some claim that Lethal Hits is a debuff to these weapons. Others, such as a previous version of this article, have claimed that this is wrong.

Lets once again investigate how these rules interact for the Leages of Votann Kahl.
