I'm a little doubtful about AP on the RHB as in every other ranged weapon with AP it's the weapon itself that has the special rule, not the model using it. As you for example don't use the models S when shooting I have somehow figured that the ranged weapon is not part of the model or at least not a...

Personally I think it's fine to leave the Execs as they are. Give them +1A and make sure you get the charge. 9/10 there won't be a second turn of the CC so the fact that they have GWs won't matter that much. If you aren't comfortable with that I agree, giving the an Assassin is probably the best cho...

Why do you have a Lance on your Lord , you can't use it since you have the Hydra Blade, right? Also @ Nazgual the Assassin does not remove a RnF he is simply added to the unit. Still it might be a bit predictable to field a 19 man strong Corsair as it is pretty much guaranteed to be an Assassin in t...

1. A master can't join Executioners so you can't put the BSB with them.

2. Executioners can't take the Ring of Hotek

You might have to reconsider a few things, after that the roblem might have disappeared, hopefully! ;)

I think it's a great idea, and with the new Warriors of Chaos book coming out shortly I think we could create a pretty good 7th edition Cult of Slaanesh. Heck if it's not made here I'll probably make such a list myself anyway!

Venom Sword

I guess you might have figured what my question is about. Anyway I was wondering, how does the Venom Sword work against for example Ogres? Say that you cause 2 wounds and the opponent fails both T tests, would that mean that 2 ogres die or does the first one die, ehm, twice? What i mean is, are the ...

Yes, to me this looks a lot better! Now you have as you say more shooting, and being able to make in impact in another phase is invaluable! It also has a lot more close combat potential, you have more units, and both the BG and the Hydra are monsters (no pun intended) in Close Combat. If you ask I t...

Ok, I have a few suggestions. First of all Dagger of Hotek is a great weapon when you're facing HE, but truthfully, it doesn't give the lord a lot of punch. If you're NOT facing HE he'll probably strike first anyway. Dance of Doom on the death hag is utterly useless seeing as she already has a 4+ Wa...

The kill I'm most proud of is when my unit of Executioners charged a unit of Iron Breakers with an ASF Dwarf Lord. The Lord I think might have killed one of my guys, not sure it was a while back. Knowing how tough Dwarf Lords usually are I didn't think it was worth going after him hard so I directed...

Personally I really like 7 model wide-units, so I would suggest 14, or if you have the points for it, 21, but i have found that 14 are usually enough. With Hag Graef and Crimson death, that A LOT of kills against most enemies, and it will most likely give you a better CR than if you field a unit, 5x...

Well yes, I realize that anything the Assassin can't take out easily will be a problem. However the High Elves ASF won't help them much, as the unit is only that efficient when it is charged, and there is no High Elf in the (fantasy) world (or the real one for that matter) that will strike before a ...

The ultimate defensive Druchii unit!

The other day I was thinking about how much more of a difference the extra attack from the Cauldron would do for a unit of spearmen compared to other units since they have more models fighting. I thought to myself, "how do you make them even more dangerous?" What I came up with was this: T...

My tip first of all would be, take no magic! It's seriously hard to do anything decent magic-wise against dwarves. I suggest taking fast flyers and Shades to deal with his War Machines and Thunderers. If you can take them out the rest of the army is quite helpless and you can get the battle exactly ...
