Hail brothers in arms! Going to play a private tourney soon and would be glad for some feedback to my list. Opponents will be Demons Demons (straight Khorne with BT) Dark Elves Vampires Woodies Warriors of Chaos Orks Only restriction is no special characters. Regarding rules, we agreed upon the ASF/...

Hail to you, brothers in arms! Thanks for your comments, they are highly appreciated. I did some changes due to your opinions and my thoughts of my opponents in the tourney Lords • Archmage, Level 4 Wizard, Lore of Shadow, Book of Hoeth, Talisman of Preservation Heroes • Mage, High Magic, Level 2 Wi...

Hail brothers in arms, I will play a tourney against some friends in some weeks, not deadly competitive, but more fun and relaxing. Still, everyone will invest some thoughts into tough lists. Opponents will be Tomb Kings, VC, Orcs (mainly savage orcs as I know), knights of Bretonnia and the new liza...

With the robes (or was it the talisman?), you are not allowed to attack in melee.
Hence, the fire dragon strategy does not really work. Just challenge a big nasty character (without magic attacks by himself, e.g. demons, etherals etc.) and let your unit do the damage, in terms of CR.

Don't have my rulebook with me but I am pretty sure that you are allowed to march.
Flyers are allowed to march in the Remaining Moves sub-phase, with a LD test when within 8 inch of an opponent unit, so there is no reason that the spell target may not march.

Anyways, this combo of AM, BSB, and bunker unit can work greatly with Shadow or Death on the AM... From my view, the PG unit does not need the Mindrazor spell. The AM can get into challenges (not against "natural" magic attacks of course, e.g. demons, ghosts etc.) and neutralize enemy CM. ...

Where can I get the army builder app for the iphone?
Have been looking for it recently.

My reg opponent runs very heavy SO lists and they just pump out attacks like no tomorrow especially with dual choppaz and savage Orc boar boys are epic too especially on the charge - quite hard to deal with as a whole. Yeah, that is why I try to decimate these guys as early as possible. But their f...

Okay, here the Mathhammer between 12 WL with FC and 6 wide and 15 BO (two spaltaz), FC and 5 wide: WL strike first with 13 attacks rerollable (3+) and S6 vs. T4 and AS 5+: 13 attacks = 11,55 hits (3+ rerollable) = 9,63 wounds (2+ to wound), no AS due to S6 --> 9 wounds BO strike back with 5 models i...

Thanks for the comments guys! Yes, D&D is RiP, it was different in 7. Ed. The Waaagh! Spell is the biggest spell the greenskins have. It gives them the opportunity to advance 2D6 inches and, when in cc, ASF and reroll misses. Pretty nasty as it effects all units. My fault was only that I did not...

Hi folks, had my first 8. Edition game on Saturday at our club meeting. My opponent were O&G, I did not know the player as I hadn't played him before. I was expecting heavy magic defence, thus I choose to take the BoH on my AM. Here my list. AM, BoH (Death) - Spells: Signature, the two Snipers, ...

Your AM is not allowed to cast magic missiles due to the fact that he is in melee "combat". If he has LoS to his target he can cast spells as usual.

[quote="Awsten"]I like running a noble BSB on barded steed/dragon armor shield and lance in with a unit of dragon princes, with a champion. I throw in my archemage on a steed with robes/ToS as well and it makes for a hell of a mage bunker...[quote] Unfortunately, the AM is only allowed to ...

do you mean that a GE that charge is 2" + 3D6 and choose the 2 highest ones?

No, when charging, flyers add their flying movement of 10" to the highest two of 3D6.

As far as i remember (don't have the BRB with me), units with the rule "fly" are NOT allowed to join any unit.

He could take 3 units of 82 each, helps diverting enemy units

In the HE Army Book, the Enchanted Shield comes for a cost of 10 points.
The BRB "offers" it for 5 points, with the same effect.

Does that mean that a HE army pays 5 points more for the shield as the Army Book rules overrule the BRB?

Yeah, CM is Character Model, edited the first post.

Nevertheless, strange rule...

Hi folks

Is shooting a single Character modified by -1 as it was in 7. Ed?
Shooting skirmishers is modified by -1, but not single Character seems very strange to me.

As I have the German BRB, this fact might have been lost during translation (wouldn't be the first time).

Interesting idea...

I would drop the radiant gem though, there will be no chance to release a spell successfully with the noble as only mage. I would take the reaver bow instead, gives you more shooting potential.

Thanks for your feedback BoltThrower. I also love Lion Chariots and I think they are absolutely worth their points. My AM will definetely take shadow magic vs. lizards, maybe I am lucky and get some of the nasty saurus cavalry or temple guards with the PoS. Good hint with EoG, I hate these big unns,...

Now, as I know some more facts about my enemies, I present an updated list: - We will play in three groups, 4 players each - The allocation of players to the groups seems to be some kind of weird to me, but anyhow - Fact is: I have a 78% chance to be in one group with (at least, might be more) Tomb ...

I'd be a bit wary of enemy shooting as the list stands. Target it with your own I guess. Are the mages going to sit back in the White Lions? Yes, enemy shooting will be target of my shooting and magic (depending on how much fast cav, flyers, or scouts he has). Yes, the wizards shall be protected by...

I did some configuration change, although I think the main purpose remains: flexibility. AM lv 4 - 2 dispel - RoF - SW 350 Mage lv 2 - Seer - Dispel 185 BSB - Barded steed - Lance - Shield - DA - HoF - GP 188 2x10 Archers 220 15 WL, full command - GoC - SoB 310 5 DP, SB - BoS 220 Tir Chariot 85 6 SM...

Thanks for the hint, I'll post my new list when finished.

Does anyone have experience with a Mage on a Tir Chariot? Makes him deny ranks when flanking...

I can choose the magic lores for each opponent separately, I only have to declare the lore before the tourney starts (e.g. I say "High magic vs. Skaven, Metal vs. Brets and so on). That is why I want the second mage for complementary spells, depending on what the AM rolls. I am just reconsideri...

@SpellArcher:

I want to hide the SM behind forests or the like and make a surprising flank charge through heavy terrain.

Hey guys, I am new to this forum and want to ask you for feedback for an army list. We are playing a 2000P tournament with only two restrictions: No special characters and wizards have to choose their lores before I know my opponent's army list (so actually we have to determine the lores before the ...
