The list is pretty much core with the exception of the Hydra. The plan is to add all three characters in with the Corsairs. This is an amazing ammount of attacks from the unit that can strike first. Should threaten any major combat monster character in any unit. The Dredlord is putting out 8 Srt 7 first strike attacks. If the Cauldron gives another attack thats 9 attacks in one round. Enough to slaughter any General. The Assassin is spitting out 5 attacks with the Venom Sword thats before the cauldron. In theory it seems sound. The warriors are there to keep the unit from making stupid charges since they are frenzied. The death Hag protects them from numbers flank and rear bonuses with witchbrew. I will keep a strong center with the riders and hydra on the flanks and the Harpies providing screening or attacking war machines. What do you think?
I think we can truly make a pretty impressive list with just core and get away from the always have to have Black Guard with ASF. Something that to many people are getting comfortable with dealing with.
