On Sunday I get to have a game against John from Stumpy Heaven who will be bringing his High Elves. We will be using the proposed armies we intend to take to Horned Rat/Gobbo in a couple weeks and as its mainly a 40K group here it will be great to have the practice for Fantasy.
My list which I'm pretty settled on is
Strigoi Ghoul King
Sword of Strife
Other Tricksters Shard
Dragonbane Gem
Red Fury
Aura of Dark Majesty
Master Necromancer, level 4
Vampire
Heavy Armour, shield
Dispel Scroll
Dragonhelm
Seed of Rebirth
Aura of Dark Majesty
Tomb Banshee
Tomb Banshee
Tomb Banshee
25 Zombies, FC
25 Zombies, FC
5 Dire Wolves
38 Crypt Ghouls, Ghast
6 Crypt Horrors
2 Fell Bats
2 Fell Bats
2 Fell Bats
Mortis Engine, Tome
3 Cairn Wraiths inc Banshee
This is blatantly a 'scream' list though it lacks a Terrorgheist, it wont be until after the tournament I acquire one sadly. The Vampires will join the Ghoul unit with a couple Banshees and take advantage of the dual Auras.
Crypt Horrors sit in front of the Mortis engine to soak the odd cannonball... maybe and get the regen buff.
Master necro sits in a growing zombie bunker while the other shambling mass head toward something I dont want to fight.
Add redirectors and nuisances and there you have it.
I have had suggestions of slightly different item builds on the characters but these seem good though I am on the fence whether to take the Sword of Strife for the extra 2 attacks and stacking Red Fury or go for +2 Strength for the same points for more confirmed damage.
Hmmm interesting - no BSB in there though by my calculations?
ReplyDeleteWell with no need to take break tests it is not as compulsory as in other armies.
ReplyDeleteIt can be useful for reforming and the bonus to combat rez but its also some more vp for the opponent.
EWWW :P
ReplyDeleteNext time my cavalry won't go so easy on you.
