2000pt Tourney Weekend

#1 Post by Bellaphon »

Having finally beaten my cousins VC Zombie scream list the idea of a gaming weekend is now on the cards. I know that during this weekend i will be facing VC, WofC/DofC and Dwarfs.

Having learnt a great deal from playing against the VC i know that i cannot taylor my list just to beat them and that with two other T4 armies i will need to take a more balanced list.

the key issues i am facing are what do i do in certain areas to make my list more rounded. What i do want to include in the army is 1 frostheart and 2 eagles and a block of phoenix guard. (Yes i am aware i might lose the frostheart to one shot from a cannon, but hopefully i can use terrain to mitigate this)

my two main questions in this case are?

Loremaster or Archmage?

and

Swordmasters or White Lions?


I feel WL would be the better choice as Dwarfs/Chaos are T4 and they are stubborn which would help with those all important LD tests against all armies. Yet i cannot ignore the amount of attacks id get with SM.

Id run both units 7x3 with probably the BSB.

Any input would be appriciated, just want to get the public opinion.

Thanks

I'd go with Lions because you have PG already and they deal with numbers while the Lions deal with armour.
