Re: The Nine Lore Challenge

If you want a challenge then I would recomend this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOErZuzZpS8. It could be beautifully themed. Have a strong shooting base, kit out a prince with the the Ring of fury or RGoH ect. Unkillable Arch mage build with the silver wand. And laugh whilst singing the line &quo...

Re: Magic vs DE

I recommended a lv 2 metal mage for several reasons. 1. because the default spell can deal with chariots and cold ones and the others are all helpfull in their way. 2. If for any reason (Vaul forbid!) your main caster fails to cast a spell, you can always fall back onto metal dude. 3. Again as point...

Re: Magic vs DE

Against the dreaded Dark Elves I like to take two mages, a Lv 4 and a Lv 2. With the level 2 I take Metal, this is because my DE opponent likes to take chariots and coldone knights, the default spell helps with zapping these high armour save units from a 24" inch range and the rest of the metal...

Re: Elves growing taller - Increase in Model Size

Games Workshop (I bneleive) has always done this. Off the top of my head look at the Bloodletter model, thin and scrawny has changed to big and buff and back again, lots of times.

I always upgrade to a champion, because you never know when you might need him!

It's not much of an advantage, but every little helps especialy at...
