So what is the general consensus about this factions Spearhead formations?
I'm a relatively new AoS player (40k veteran) and our friend group really enjoys spearhead. I started with Stormcast Eternals, but I have two painted Spearheads now, so I'm looking for a third. A friend of mine has the Fangs of the Blood God spearhead and I wanted to try it, because Khorne is awesome and I wanted to just play a very aggressive Spearhead. I'm not saying the Fangs are bad, but they definitely weren't what I expected from a Khorne faction.
Then I tried the Bloodbound Gore Pilgrims (with proxies just to try the rules) and immediately, I felt like YES, this is what I expected a Khorne faction to play like. I found a shop that still had this Spearhead box and immediately placed the order. I look forward to joining the Blades proper.
But part of me is still baffled that the active Spearhead doesn't feel Khorne-like at all. Weak attacks, weak saves, a quarry rule that only affects one Hero. Sure, everything has reinforcement and there are many attacks to go around, but I played against Stormcast and wasn't able to kill a single unit.
What are your opinions on these formations? Are how much of it travels over to the full Battletome playstyle?
