I've been thinkinng about this, and well here's an example yesterday my friend and I had a few games swapping armies. Well I utterly crushed the high elves (with woodies) but I did not get one spell off the entire game. My first attempt too cast was a 6 dice dwellers on a Phoenix guard horde, well S...

He's pretty good, just he often forgets angling for best effect. This leads to a way for me to foil his plan more often than not, or at least delay it.

I'm not sure, but I know he stayed with a unit of ten glade guard and had the stone of the crystal mere which is probably the sum of all his magic items. Well the reason I took life the second time instead of beasts was because he had had success with it, using a treemen ancient too hold up a horde ...

Well we played 3 games, one with Our usual lists- ( http://www.ulthuan.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=40964 ) I don't have a copy of his but it was something this: Tree man ancient, tree man, level 4 life divination orb, noble bsb, level 1 scroll, 6 tree kin, then some dryads archers and 2 eagle...

Thanks for the feed back, for both lists I didn't really tailor since its not much fun for us in that event. Also he liked a horde of halberdiers when he played empire so I tailored too that a bit.

Oh my buddy asked for some help with a list, he will no doubt modify it.. But anyway here it is.. "Hi Stuart, here the list I made: Lords  Treeman ancient 325 Level 4 Spell weaver Beasts 250 Items: 80 Heroes Noble bsb Armor of destiny Great weapon 144 Core 20 glade guard FC Banner of eternal fl...

Hi guys I have my first game in months coming up tomorrow! So my friend and I were just going to have a few fun games, however we thought we would try some OP lists in one game... However that doesnt seem possible for woodies, so I dropped Teclis and came up with this. Zarkarian's host, the defender...

Ah thanks! I am doing that with my metal PG but I don't think i did so with my sword masters.

It's a corsair banner, from the dark elf battalion! ... A remmenant of their many bloody defeats ...

Fortunately I am beginning to start up again!
I am working on touching up some of my sea guard too get back into the swing of things!

Hi guys thanks for the advice! I have had too put my stuff away for a while, a combination of exams and a school camp from hell, so I intend to be back in action fairly soon!

In regard to the core being 'traded' for the BoS and ASF great weapons, It a price that I'm happy to pay, but given the choice, I would keep it rather than lose the magic phase (maybe swap the banner for an arcane) but I think that if they remove ASF on troops like the sword masters they really aren...

I think that in the end what we need is a solution to the problem, rather than making our troops cheap, make them worth taking. (and elite at that) Just imagine a spear elf had heavy armour, +1 s first round, AP and an extra rank for the purpose of steadfast and rank bonus. Now we have a soldier tha...

So why I like metal: The alchemist on the battle magic cards Fullmetal alchemist Alchemy :P Essentially I was out to experiment, and since I don't like shadow that much and the concept of metal appeals too me, I decided to give it a shot, and what I found was that it essentially has one spell which ...

PS: What about simply letting us only need 15-10% of Core? Try making a couple of lists and see how you feel. Because i was surprised how much better i felt about my lists with that tax reduced. You the thing is that doesn't solve the issue, we are still handicapped by a portion of our army, and we...

Metal works rather well with my Phoenix guard, enchanted blades really helps them, generally hitting on 2's then -2 too armour making them pretty effective at clearing humanoid troops, then spells like final transmutation and searing doom help deal with their weaknesses, namely high armour and huge ...

The other thing about ethereal and so on is it could be like the chosen of chaos, only one unit per lvl 2 or higher Mage. Then the parry could be innate, as well as the -1 to hit for shooting. MR could be a cheap upgrade, and would be rather effective since it cancels the issue of MM's to some exten...

+1 You know an interesting addition for the SoA, or just core troops would be re-roll all ones to wound (and 2s if you have harmonic convergence on them) and then add armour piercing to the spears. I think that although this may be too much/little it keeps the points cost fairly high which is import...

I think my issue with our core is that I don't want elves to be cheap for fluff and modelling reasons, and hence they cannot fulfil the 'bodies' role. Therefore the only roles that are really available are: Small archer units clearing chaff (but 10 just doesn't cut it :/) A spears block to augment c...

What would a good 2500 castle list look like?

I think the key to this list is having a fun campaign with it. The key to winning is to avoid all cannons! Meaning that maybe the level 2 should be heavens for ice shard blizzard. But anyway, it is qs imply put only viable against armies not loaded with cannons since otherwise death will follow.

That is true, but I am able to have some games with skaven, so the mad scientist in me I sated :P Edit: all this aside I will probably just make a mental list of possible armies, and when someone is selling one and I like the look/theme of it, I will buy it. (especially TK in the category since they...

Dwarves - short, tought and slow!

Hmm... The only book I can find is not the current book...

Sadly I don't have 4 dragons or enough core, but damn this would be awesome (against anyone except ogres, empire and dwarves)

Another cool thing would be lining up 4 dragons to charge a unit, then let him try and escape, then 4 dragons on one unit!!! (or even better 4 breath weapons on one unit!!)

Yep, the idea would be surrounding painting the wires and using resistors to reduce the amount of power going in so that it's a dimmer glowing, not brightly lit.

I have to say I would consider a metal list, it always has useful spells. Even against armour less troops, 3 spells have no reason not to take them, 2 have armour as a secondary effect, and 2 are straight anti armour.

That said with teclis, miasma then pit and if that fails pendulum is an option.

I have to say that although my favourite Lores are high magic then light, metal is amazing, especially with PG every spell in there synergies well with a PG horde style army.
