Re: [8th] - 2000 pts Dwarf vs Orcs & Goblins
Agreed - will be bringing a scroll moving forward. no more Master rune of Balance. hehe. Re: deployment and army list - the list has worked in the past nicely. Though I agree some gyros are needed and one will be fully painted by the time the next game rolls around. Who knows how the battle would ha...

Re: [8th] - 2000 pts Dwarf vs Orcs & Goblins
Reads like a fun game. In terms of deployment, I think going for a corner might have made a difference, since it reduces the maneuverability and charge options he has. But it likely wouldn't have mattered in this game. What I think was really missing from the list is some redirectors. The list didn...

Re: [8th] - 2000 pts Dwarf vs Orcs & Goblins
Thanks for that LW, nice report! The lists were interesting, not maxed out but both had teeth. I'd have been tempted to take a Spellbreaking Rune, especially with Foot of Gork around. Equally, I don't rate Black Orcs. Gyrocopters might indeed have helped. I think deployment favoured O&G somewha...

[8th] - 2000 pts Dwarf vs Orcs & Goblins

All good points! I'll see what I finish my army with and test the Loremaster int he comign few games (smaller games, 1250 pts) where he should shine.

Re: Added a Loremaster of Hoeth and...
Thank you for the feedback! A couple of items on my end: - the idea of adding the BoH is interesting - I hadn't thought about it, but you're right. In the event that you're able to use fewer dice for more spells, a re-roll of 1 - 2 becomes important. I like this idea. - The lvl 2 high mage, was mean...

Hi all, Recently added a Loremaster of Hoeth to my collection and have fielded him with a unit of 15 Swordmasters. Unfortunately, their first game, they were charged by a group of TK Necropolis Knights and they didn't quite survive the encounter, which I thought was odd to say the least. However, I'...

Maiden Guards?
Hi all, Being a new high Elf player, I'm seeking the wisdom of those that have played High Elves longer than I. I saw an old box on ebay that was selling Alarielle and their 10 maiden guards. Are these real? The 8th edition book has no maiden guards ( or does it, and I'm missing it?) There's the Han...

Re: Non-High Elf Battle Report: Orcs & Goblins vs Dwarfs
I'm just going to post after reading the lists, not the report proper or RE's thoughts. I can see the idea behind the O&G list, wrongfooting the Dwarfs. The magic and shooting defences are indeed largely wasted. However, these are not hugely expensive and the Dwarf list remains balanced. The sh...

Great report, as always! The O&G army was especially nice - Grom is a very characterful choice and his army was quite unlike the "green dwarfs" we sometimes see in competitive play. The Organ Gun was super-charged and did a lot of the killing, too bad the infantry units couldn't take ...

Re: Non High Elf Battle Report: Wood Elves vs Tomb Kings
Fun battle! And some really wild dice swings in there. I think the post match analysis was correct. A BSB really helps increase reliability. You can always fail a LD 9 roll. But failing two in a row is a lot harder. Some of the combats also had interesting results. I had expected more from the Tree...

Re: Non-high Elf Battle Report - Dwarfs vs Tomb Kings
Well, a Tomb Prince essentially gives Tomb Guard (or any unit he joins) WS5, and a Tomb King gives WS6. But is it worth the points at this level? A kiktted out Tomb Prince is something like 125 pts or so? That is 10% of your army at this point. Does he make the army 10% better by being in there? Or...

Re: Non-high Elf Battle Report - Dwarfs vs Tomb Kings
soften up the dwarves first. In particular, kill the Organ Gun. It helps that the TK's can heal as well. More magic would have certainly helped the TK. But then you run into the points limits fairly fast I think. Add 500 pts and the lists start looking very different quite fast. I wonder if it woul...

Nice battle. It doesn't matter that it didn't feature any HE. We're a gaming site with a HE and warhammer focus. But anything goes. And I personally believe we become better players by also looking at (or playing with) other armies and their tactics. one thing I was wondering about in the battle re...

Re: High Elves vs Wood Elves
Thanks for the write-up! Did you play this game you vs. yourself? Do you this regularly? How does it work for you? Actually, I play with my wife here at home. She doesn't love painting but enjoys playing every now and then smaller games. I do sometimes test units against each other by myself, though!

Thanks for that! Fire magic was definitely the right choice here. As said it is good vs Flammable and Magic Missiles hurt Wood Elves generally. In fact, it's probably a good all-round choice for a Mage full stop. The Treemen were always going to be an issue. Big Fireballs help but Banner of the Wor...
