Re: 2500 pts vs Warriors of Chaos - "The Gods Turn Their Backs"
Hey Curu, thanks for the reply! I believe you outdeployed him here, which really helped you. Also, he played way too defensively. Basically you got the same kind of setup I've used a couple of times - one where your elite units can smash him hard from the side of his main battle force. Very hard to ...

2500 pts vs Warriors of Chaos - "The Gods Turn Their Backs"
Chaos Warriors vs. High Elves So going in to this match, I made it my goal to keep in mind the common criticism I had of my last match: my movement phases were too chaotic. My goal was to think about every move I made this game and make sure it was going to further my goal, and if it wasn't, then w...

Re: White Lions overrated?
Yeah, that was my bad. I still believe that the pelt plus stubborn gives them more tactical options outside of the leadership bubble though.White Lions have the same LD and I as Swordmasters (they are NOT LD9 as someone claimed earlier, I just checked)

Re: White Lions overrated?
So as far as specific examples go, White Lions close the gap and often exceed swordmasters when the troops in question are lower WS than 5, and higher than average toughness. A couple examples: Using a standard 7 x 2 formation with a champion. Doomwheel: White Lions - 9 attacks - 4 wounds Swordmaste...

Re: 2500 points vs. Lizards - "My mage can beat up your mage"
Hey guys, thanks for the responses! I thought if BSBs ran they were considered to be dead, as they would rather fight to the death protecting the army standard than flee? Luckily this particular rule only applies if the BSB flees from combat. I guess they find a way of morally rationalizing it to th...

2500 points vs. Lizards - "My mage can beat up your mage"
First thing's first: My apologies that I can't embed the photos in the actual thread. I uploaded them at full size in our gaming group's website, which resizes them when you put them in a thread, but here they become pretty big real estate hogs. I'll definitely fix this for next time. If the picture...

Re: 1200 pt 2v2 tournament list
Hey Guys Your input is very valuable to me; we've definitely taken the issues raised to heart, and we're definitely re-thinking about how to make our list work both in the individual army sense, and in terms of the overall dynamic. KJSparkz, it seems from your response that you think an army that fo...

Re: 1200 pt 2v2 tournament list
Thanks so much for your input! Nice to hear somebody reaffirm what I was thinking regarding the White Lions.
Any thoughts on the magic setup?

1200 pt 2v2 tournament list
Hello everyone. In March I have a tournament coming up, my first after a long hiatus from warhammer (played mostly in 6th edition). I'm up to speed on the 8th edition rules, and now I'm trying to put together my tournament list. My partner will be Dwarves, and I will post both of our lists. Any inpu...
