2500 Peg/shooting Dark Elves

[jarbs]

Looking to make an all-comers competitive list. Any improvements?

Dreadlord on Peg
Ogre Blade, Black Amulet, Full mundane
(alternate build would be ogre blade, dawn stone, crown, with full mundane)

Lv 4 Shadow
Scroll/5++

Master BSB on Peg
Charmed shield/4++/full mundane/lance

Master on peg
Cloak of twlight/full mundane/lance

21 witches full command

14 shards banner/flame banner

2x5 dark riders with musc/shield

30 executioners full command

15 shades with mus/GW

3 Bolt throwers

2500 points

Thoughts?

I am supposing that the lv 4 should be with the shards. I don't know what kind of models you have, but if you really wanted more shooting, I would use the points as DR instead of the witches.

What are your thoughts about the dreadlord? Adding him to a peg still only keeps him at 3 wounds. So putting him on a Dark steed is more points efficient. You don't lose a wound (unlike the DS master) and he can zip around fairly easily if you have enough DR units on the field.

But, looks like a pretty solid list.

You can bring two units of Doomfire Warlocks in a 2500 point army.

They shoot... stuff.

Warlocks are comped quite heavily in the Swedish system for good reason. They are good at a wide range of supporting roles. Although not spectacular at anyone thing, they are very, very well rounded. Keep them safe from masses of bowfire. They are still T3 after all.

Aside, I just did a swedish calculation on my typical 2400pt army. It's a 2. I don't ever play SWE or ETC, just fun with friends and our own tournaments. On the circuit is it considered cheesy to win with a heavily comped army? Is it considered better to take a mid ranged army and win with that? How is comp viewed? Are they separated into comp divisions?

are you thinking to use the Exec in horde?
how do you plan to defend them as everything will be fired at them?
how would you move these two big block of infantry on the table (witches and Exec)?
you might lose a lot of mobility and resulting in a human wall for your RBT and Shards..
