It's certainly possible, especially if I do any team events which I would like to do- I'd go with the mentality to win the event, so I'd want us to to take nasty armies with nasty lists. For a singles event, however, it might be a bit of a wait- I've used the army only a few times this year and gone...

The magic dice cap seems very very over complicated, and could lead to some really weird situations- for example, a Beastman Herdstone spam list (one of the few ways to make the book competitive) could vary between adding anywhere from 1-6 extra dice based on that initial roll. A better way would, I...

The worth of the Cauldron isn't so much the Stubborn buff to Khainite units, but instead the free unstoppable buff- in an edition where combat and magic are where you can get your big points it effectively gives you a 100% guaranteed, unstoppable spell with no risk involved that stacks with the alre...

The Master BSB really won't add very much. For 70pts more you get a Cauldron BSB, which is probably the best 225pts you can spend in the game.

What lores do you have on the mages, it makes a massive difference to how they are kitted out.

People have been doing this since the edition first came out- deploy a unit 3 wide with the mage in the second rank, then swift-reform the unit to 5 wide and leave the mage in the second rank. Fortunately though, it has been around for long enough that it has appeared in the FAQ: Q: Must a character...

Updated with Call to War.

Youtube had a bit of a moment last night when I was updating, I'm reuploading the other games now

Ah, the lesser spotted Black Dragon. Already an endangered species, the ETC AR committee appear to want to hunt this once majestic creature to extinction I think you could shave a few points by cutting down the Corsairs down to 30 and getting rid of one unit of harpies. To be honest, without Shadow/...

I dislike Lizardmen, I despise Skaven

Easily the worst 2 things to have happened to the game recently. I would happily see both of them redone before getting a new Wood Elf book.

First post has been updated with the SCGT 2012 preview, games and summary.

I'm not really sure that there is a common consensus to be honest. Everyone agrees that they have a lot of potential, but whether they can fulfill that potential and are an optimal choice is a different matter.

Skaven are a pretty rotten match up for DE in my experience. Seeing as most DE armies consist of fairly small units, mass templates and 13th are no pleasant

In any case, well done on the result

I'd be inclined to go with either the Fire mage or the Metal mage, but not both. Metal helps out a lot more vs Ogres, which can be an issue, but Fire also helps out vs Skaven. I usually go with a Fire level 2 because in my opinion it adds better coverage more often, whereas as the Metal mage will be...

I agree that you'll be better of writing your own list than asking other people tow write it for you.

However, this thread may provide inspiration as it features 3 different 2500 uncomped tournament lists from 3 different people http://druchii.net/viewtopic.php?t=70363

Alternatively, if you don't want to use the Dreadlord, I'd swap him out for a second level 4 on either Death/Dark who also replaces the level 2 and carries the Dispel Scroll and Lifetaker, and becomes the general. That allows you to cut 2 xbows and put the Standard of Discipline onto the warriors, a...

At 2.5K with absolutely no comp I'd probably go with something like: Standard stubborn/pendant Dreadlord (300) Shadow level 4, Lifetaker, Stabby dagger (315) CloakStone pegasus with lance (190) Fire level 2 with Dispel Scroll (125) Cauldron BSB (225) 20 Warriors, full command (135) 30 Corsairs, full...

Hydras are very much a unit that is subject to personal preference. Personally, I never bother with them as in my opinion they are far too easy to deal with and I would rather a pegasus hero or 10 more shades any day. Conversely, some people swear by hydras. They do have their uses certainly, and no...

The level 4 doesn't need the ward save or the Pearl, ld10 from the Discipline bunker is plenty. Lifetaker is great on her. The levle 2 really doesn't need to be mounted (even if you take Dark magic on her). Paying 50pts is simply not worthwhile for an extra wound, especially as it then necessitates ...

Mindrazor on Corsairs will get rid of just about anything. If he'#s using a Deathstar, have no qualms about running 30 AHW Cauldroned up Corsairs into him and chucking all the dice in the world at Mindrazor. Failing that, redirecting the deathstar away and killing the rest of the army is the more se...

The Crown of Command comp (along with no Pendant on Lords) is, I believe, to depower the Knight bus that ripped face last year. Without it, you can reform the bus to have the Pendant Dreadlord as the only model able to be attacked, pass the Stubborn ld10 break test, reform the unit and then Mindrazo...
