Re: Death to the Little Greenskin Hordes!

the hydra is defiantly a monster to be wary of in lower point games. Another thing I've fielded with great success in low point games is a chariot. But with a hydra, you are just as well set. (multiple wound model)

Re: Cold One Knights

Yeah, which makes the toughness stat on the cold one itself, rather useless.

We should get that upgraded to a Monsterous Cavalry!

Re: 1500 - Balanced but Hyper Aggressive list

they lose the benefit of adding ranks to their combat resolution, but can still use SiN for their leadership test. ? Would be my guess, without having the rulebook beside me.

Re: Cold One Knights

from how I understood it, if the spell/attack targets the unit, then you can use the Cold One's toughness, however in close combat or spells/attacks there targets a model, you have to use the riders.

Is that correct?

Cauldron of Blood/Bloodwrack Shrine and Medusa

So, I finally finished my Cauldron of Blood/Bloodwrack Shrine, I decided to do it with a small twist. As much as I like the new statue of Khaine, it just becomes too tall for my storage of the model, so I went with a compromise of the mirror. The trapped soul idea came from and old horror poster cal...

Re: LvL 2 with Arabyan Carpet? Against Chaos.

I use peg knights from the bretonian model set and put cold one knights on them (or just paint the bret knights in a dark elfish manner). I bought the CoK Chariot, and there was 2 extra horses with that packet.. And they make some nice pegasus models http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z140/xPraetor...

Re: New demons opponent.

perhaps see if you can fit in some magic resistance, either through banner og talismans, Ring of Hotek or the likes, there might protect some of the units on their way over the table. ?

Re: ROUND BASES ARE HERE!

I can see some advantages of round bases, as on our RBT's, and even some of our single models, like Peggy's, monsters etc. But much besides that I dont feel like it would be a benefit. Then it just stinks of a new idea from GW for them to make more money, by having us to re-base entire armies. Waiti...

Re: What is the no comp net list?

you could also throw in some Reaper Bolt Throwers that cost 70 pts, and is quite annoying for the opponent, as they are good at dealing with high armor troops, and for 70 pts, he is more than welcome to was a turn running across the board after that one, and ignore your more dangerous and more expen...

Re: Homemade Cauldron of Blood

In the end it is your model, so if your friends want to criticize your model, they can buy you the cauldron and then you can paint it how they like it. it is hard to see the blood, have you used "blood for the blood god" I know that gives a very wicked and nice blood effect. And to agree w...

Re: 3000 pts - The dark advance

There is no particular reason for the spears, I had a feeling they would make a good anvil. getting charged, allows 3 ranks to fight back first round, and I could get 27 bodies in there.

Re: 3000 pts - The dark advance

Looks not bad. I think you could do with more Loks and another monster/chariot and less core. Obsidian Trinket would fit well on the SS, and a 4++/2++ on your BSB makes him more survivable. Alternatively Dawnstone + Potion of Strength to hit hard where needed. Just some thoughts for your considerat...

Re: OTC and close combat

something else to be said about the OTS.

This works on models (enemy as well as friendly) in BtB with your master, so should you have a Dreadlord next to him, then he would be forced to re-roll his wardsave as well.
