1250 HE list for a few games

#1 Post by Sanguis »

Hi

On Sunday we will be getting a few friends together for some friendly 1250 games. (so no uber lists of silton doom)

Opponents i will likely be facing are...

Wood elves (Skirmish heavy)
Empire (Could be anything really)
Chaos Warriors (Cavalry heavy - with sorcs)
Greenskins (Could be anything really)

Here is the rough idea for an all commers list so far.. I need to be able to deal with all 4 armies...


HE 1250

Mage, lvl 2, Seer staff, Scroll
Noble, BSB, AOC, Guardian Phoneix, Greatweapon

10 archers

15 White lions, command, Lion standard
5 Dragon Princes, COmmand, Amulet of light, Banner of elerion
Tiranoc Chariot
Tiranoc Chariot

Eagle
Bolt thrower.


Mage only has 2 spells, so need to make sure he gets the right ones for the job. (seerstaff)

The Lions with noble BSB will make for a sturdy anvil.

Archers is the obvious core choice, and supliments the lone Bolt thower to boost the missile phase.

An eagle will prove as invaluable as ever, doing what it does best.

Chariots can lurk untill there needed to threaten flankers / skirmishers

DPs can clear a flank and then head in to help the anvil unit.


Any thoughts? Banner of sorcery maybe?

How would you handle a 1250 "freindly" set of games vs the above opponents

Decent list but a couple of things...

I don't think the BSB can have a GW.
I also prefer PG over WL's as my anvil. On the same lines I think a Warbanner in a unit like this is awesome too.

I don't play very many low point games but it seems that 1 lvl2 mage isn't going to be able to cast very much so I don't think it will matter what spells he gets. maybe give him the Ring of Fiery Blasting and an extra spell.

your list is fine. ok magic. ok combat. OK shooting.
yes BSB can have great weapons I have no idea where you got the concept it can't.
Like your list it's balanced. Good luck in your friendly games!
