Tournament competitive army list
Re: Tournament competitive army list
Your bsb only gets the 4+ parry save from the merwyrm shield if he's on foot. Cavalry doesn't get a parry save.
Your list is very mobile. I don't know how much good 1 bolt thrower would be. Maybe swap it out for another eagle or maybe a ward save for your archmage.

Re: Tournament competitive army list
Hi! I´m spanish but i´m gonna answer you in english due to the rules of this fórum...
I like your list but in my opinión it has several mistakes to be a really effective and competitive list.
* The archmage with death is really good with the book, but i miss a 4+ Ward save
* lvl2 Mage i would prefer with high magic dispell scroll and fury ring (he gives magical shoots to the army)
* bsb on foot and equipped the same way (or maybe with ellirion bow, Golden Crown of atrazar and merwyn shield?)
* My favourite core units composition is 3x 5 ellyrian reavers and 3x 6 silverhelms with shields and champions
* lions perfect (even if you put 3 less to have a 28 miniatures unit including the 2 mages and the bsb is good)
* In rare units is where I have more doubts... if you want combat include 2 frost Phoenix, but in my opinión and for a competitive list are more usefull 4 bolt throwers), so i would use 4 bolt thowers, 1 frostheart Phoenix as a hard support unit and a great Eagle...
I hope my advices will be useful for you.
Regards!
