Re: Gav Thorpe as an author

Thes ones I have read of Gav Thorpe are: Malekith: Was ok but very rushed from half way through to the end. Shadow King: I really enjoyed this one. Has very good cross overs, character progression and pace. Though at some points it feels rushed also. Most of Gav's books are actually 40k ones and loo...

Re: Considering High Elves - Need Advice

Personally I love High Elves. They have units to deal with every situation, can get lots of elites and star dragons and can pick and choose lores. Downsides are you will be outnumbered in pretty much everygame and will need to pic your fights. Also, they are glass hammers. Daemons never break and ha...

Re: Orcs and Goblins new releases!

I like the trolls and that they're very chunky looking. The boars im not to keen on. It just depends on what rules they have when they finally redo the book. I would rather have stone trolls than River trolls tbh

I think you list is ok. But why give you main combat monster a ranged bolt thrower. Seems kinda redundent as you want to get him into combat asap. Fair enough if he was on an eagle or something but that means your paying 370 + 65 just for a flying bolt thrower. Also any reason for the silver helms? ...

Re: what is essential in a competitive HE Army List?

I find that magic is getting more dangerous nowdays. Too many armys have a spell that can desimate whole units in 1 shot and if you get a misscast (which happens when you run magic heavy or against the ring of hotek which in touraments you will face) then you will have a hell of a head ache.

Archers and the dragon horn. Let the enemy charge the archers and flee.

Re: question about fighting daemons...

Best way to deal with big units of Plague bearers? I just Just avoid them.

They are slow movement 4 models. Just concentrate on taking down the rest of his army with your dragons and then when everything else has been killed you can throw your whole force to nail those damn plague bearers.
