First game of AoS - SCGT Comp.

#1 Post by Maedil »

Hey!

I am playing my first game of AoS in about a week. We are using the SCGT Comp, with 100 pool choices. The game is not going to be super competative, but i would still like to have an army that can pack a punch. I was hoping i could get some feedback on if the list is illegal (with SCGT Comp) or I am lacking something i really should have.

List 1:

Caradryan - General (5 pool choices)
Alarielle (14 pool choices)
Loremaster (4 pool choices)
Anointed (4 pool choices)

20 Archers Full Command (12 pool choices)
5 Reavers (7 pool choices)

20 Phoenix Guard Full Command (20 pool choices)
10 Swordmasters Full Command (10 pool choices)

2 Repeater Bolt Throwers (12 pool choices)
Frost Phoenix (12 pool choices)

The general synergy I was going for was making a hard center blob (Phoenix Guard + Anointed) that does not need to take Battleshock tests and with Caradryan can increase their damageout. The swordmasters are to screen my flanks, and the shooting is to pressure the opposition to come to me. Here the synergy between the Loremaster and a RBT will hopefully increase its reliability. I am very unsure about Alarielle, though she can give me back those extra wounds in a prolonged battle.

List 2:

Caradryan - General (5 pool choices)
Mage - (4 pool choices)
Loremaster (4 pool choices)
Anointed (4 pool choices)

20 Archers Full Command (12 pool choices)
5 Reavers (7 pool choices)

20 Phoenix Guard Full Command (20 pool choices)
10 Swordmasters Full Command (10 pool choices)
5 White Lions Champion/Musician (4 pool choices)
White Lion Chariot (4 pool choices)
Great Eagle (2 pool choices)

2 Repeater Bolt Throwers (12 pool choices)
Frost Phoenix (12 pool choices)

The approach is mainly the same as last time, though using the extra pool points on a mage, plus small units acting as chaff and extra punch (combo charge with larger units like Phoenix Guards or Swordmasters).
