i'm not sure what you plan to do with your noble... make him BSB and he might be a little usefull at least ^^

Your AM should go in either your lions or spears. If you put him in your spears I'd say you should use your noble as a bodyguard against a suicide charge to pick him off. That said, he should be a BSB as well.

I'd be more comfortable with the Lion Standard on the spears rather than the war banner. That failed terror test and/or auto break from fear causers will happen and will hurt when it does!

Noble should be BSB (stated already).

Other than that a good balanced Archmage lead army.

Cheers.

I do not agree in that. Spears need warbanner. They are for static combat resolution. Lion Banner is better reserved for your hammer, unless the spears are really a major part of your army.

Would that hammer be DP's then? I can see the virtue in not rolling that 1-in-6 for them to fail a charge. There are other solutions though, for instance a Ld10 General or the Dragonhorn. I agree that War Banner is a reasonable pick for Spears but I (like many) tend to run my BSB in mine. Losing combat by 1 or 2 isn't such a problem. Compared to failing a Terror test for example.
