700 points Vs Beastmen
Posted: Thu May 13, 2010 4:54 am
Here is a list I made for the first battle in my campaign, against 600 points of Beastemn. The nuts and bolts of the campaign can be found here: http://www.ulthuan.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=30635
Noble with Heavy Armour, Great Weapon, Talisman of Loec or Gem of Courage
10 Archers
15 Spearmen with Full Command
11 White Lions with banner and champ
Eagle
5 reavers
Against Beastmen I am going to be out numbered like crazy, and considering my opponent has nothing to lose he is going to try to give me a first up beating.
I sort of wanted to stick with a scouting theme, but still need something that can hold the line if it has to. I like the idea of stubborn White Lions, but could swap them out with Sword Masters for more punch, and the Noble could use the GoC if they had to make a Ld test. I did think about taking two units of archers, and sticking in two chariots. The impact hits and combined unit strength would hurt a unit of beastmen real bad, especially if the noble was in one. But that leaves vunerable if the enemy reaches my lines with decent numbers.
