2000 Point Army - Facing of Against He And WoC (New Player)

Post by Tashown »

Hey :)

I have just started playing WHF with 2 of my good friends. We'r playing 2k armies with no special char's. I'v been watching this forum for some time, and finally worked out a list. My friends are playing HE and WoC, and im finding it quite hard to make a list that works against both. I'v beaten the HE army twice and lost twice to WoC.

Atm im quite low on cash (studying:P) so i wont be able to buy reenforcements anytime soon. My idea of this post, is to hear you guys thoughs one witch replacements should be made, to best counter both the HE and WoC army.

Ill start with my list, please bear in mind that im completly new to the game:)

Lord:

Supreme Sorceress = 350
Lvl 4
Pendant of Khaeleth
Sacrificial Dagger
Black dragon Egg
Shadow/Death

- She's with the Warrior unit


Heroes:

Sorceress = 115
Tome of Furion

- Not sure where she's going yet

Death Hag = 200
CoB
BSB

- In the middle, center piece of the army. want to keep my WE's stubbon at all times

Core:

35x Warriors = 275
Full Command
Shields
Banner of Disiplin


10x Repeater Crossbowmen = 115
Shields
Musician

- Shoot up HE elites and WoC Maruders

10x Repeater Crossbowmen = 115
Shields

- Shoot up HE elites and WoC Maruders

Special:

20x Black Guards = 320
Full Command
Banner of Murder

- I find thses to be the most all around special unit (a mix of WE and Executors?). Able to deal with Chaos warriors and HE elites aswell.

20x Witch Eleves = 225
Full Command

- im not really sure about them. They chopped up a great ammount of HE Swordmasters in a game. But im quite sure was due to the ASF banner i gave them. Not sure they'll work that well without it. Against WoC, i really cant see them work against anything els than Maruders?

5x Shades: 85
Ekstra Hand Weapon

- Harrasment

Rare:

War Hydra: 175

- Well? Eat away

Total: 1995

About placement and tac's, im really in an experimental fase, clearly lacking exspirence :)

here are my replacement options:

9x Cold one Knighs
10x Executors
20x Corsairs
2x Asassains

Any of this worth taking into the list?

The lvl 1 isn't good for anything, so she is spare points for you to use.

Witches work fine with KB, they get so many attacks that even losing some to poison, they can still land enough to make KB worthwhile. Give them the flaming banner to deal with any WoC monsters

Shades I can take or leave. I use harpies and CoKs in my lists which fill all the same roles. Dropping the Shades plus the lvl 1 would free up enough points for 6 Coks with a muso, and pay for the flaming banner on the witches.

Posting individual points costs is against the rules of this forum (we don't want to be shut down by GW now do we?)

Next time if you include points values, please post them as total for a whole unit as opposed to listing each thing separately.
