=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=
==={{PAGENAME}} in a Nutshell===
The Blackclad Stoneshaper provides a damage buff to Wolds - that's the primary reason for taking it. Repair, Quiet the Stones, and a magical spray are all ''good'' - but similar abilities are already on the [[Shifting Stones]]. Earth's Power is the primary reason to take the Stoneshaper.
Older guides will say the Stoneshaper is pointless. This is because until November 17 the Stoneshaper didn't have earth's power. As a Requisition option 2 should always be a consideration if you are running Wold heavy.
===Combos & Synergies===
* The Stoneshaper supports construct warbeasts. Any construct warbeasts.
* [[Baldur2]] has no natural damage buff but runs wold heavy, his feat + stone sentinel make the shapers a pain to remove.
===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* If you don't have construct warbeasts then there are better choices.
* If you can't be B2B with a construct and trigger Stone Sentinel, consider the stoneshaper as an easy squishy target.
* He is unarmed, so you can not declare a charge with him.
===Tricks & Tips===
* Sometimes extra STR is overkill. Pay attention to your opponent ARM and HP to know if you need the Earth’s Power.
* Stoneshapers can heal any constructs, including shifting stones, sentry stones the well and the fulcrum.
* You can use Earth’s Power and Quiet the Stones at 11 inches (Walk + CMD RNG), so no need to be near the front line and getting snipe.
* Don't forget that you can throw him into combat for some interesting sprays (only if it's worth it).
* Throw the Stoneshaper in to combat late when you don't have many beasts left to support. It can kill some solo or control flag.

This model can make the following Special Attacks or Special Actions. Doing so counts as casting a spell. If a Cost is listed, the model does not pay that cost. A cost might be listed because the Special Action or Special Attack is also a Spell listed on a Leader model.

If a model uses a Special Action or Special Attack to cast a spell in this manner, they cannot buy additional melee or ranged attacks unless otherwise stated in the spell, because using a Special Action or Special Attack is a Combat Action choice other than using Initial Attacks.
