i am not a rules expert, but i would figure it go's like this 1) altar of blood has unit type chariot, chariots have swiftstride 2) altar of blood has a special rule war altar and thus loses swiftstride from being a chariot. 3) banner is added to the unit, the unit (including the altar) will gain sw...

Is it me or is the dark elf book brutal!

My first thought go's out to the assasin, wether to give it the fencers blades (4a i10 ws10) or the +3a sword (6a ws7 i9). Ofcourse with the T+1Strength venom. @Dalamar: could you work your statistics on this?

+1
I'm a fan!

Not into AoS at all!

How about using a horde with botwd (end times right), so he can zap their toughness to 0 in one turn

Yes indeed a typo, or a brain fart, either way i fixed it :-) thanks

So now that I am attending the same tournement as Lord Drakon and Searinox Naghara I thought i'd post my list as well I have to work with the models I got, but all feedback is welcome. Lords 542 Dreadlord 277 - general - steed - heavy armor - SDC - shield - Dawnstone - OTS - giantblade Supsorc 265 -...

They didn't give you notice eventhough u alraidy send your list?

I will be attending the tournement, hope to see you there.

Did you see they changed the point limit to 2400?

Doombolt is just 18" right? Even boosted

Like you say: given the situation, what is my outcome? But what i find more interesting by far is: I want this outcome, what situation am i minimally required to create. In extension, this could eventialy mean that you could insert an opponants list, and you get counter units with minimum sizes. Of ...

Isnt it essentially the same? You say known unit, known unit size, beats unknown unit and unkown unit size by fixed odd. Is u can run that with chosen unit size 14 of witches, you can also do it with 10 and 40 and everything in between. Then you should be able to compare all the outcomes from this a...

You could do it differently though, you could calculate against what kind of units your particular unit has a good success rate (say 60%). for example, if you like playing MSU, including a unit of 14 witches, you could calculate what other units it can beat solo without buffs. this in turn can help ...

but you can however calculate the lowest unit size to be successful against a set percentage of enemies right? You'd have to define success (perhaps winning combat with only 20% wound loss). Then you'd "run" every possible unit size of witch elves against every other unit and unit size. yo...

I'm seeing Dearon on his next tournament with a smartphone with his program on it, looking his opponent in the eye just before the match. Dearon is quickly entering his opponents list in his program. The other player is still debating on whether if he wants to go first or not until all of a sudden D...

Yes, but so beautiful and logically at the same time.
Actually like many chinese people I know

Haha i didn't mean it looks like chinease people haha, that would be kind of racisme. I meant the lannguage

Ok it doesnt completely bedazzles me, it actually looks allot like the statistic classes i took. Come to think of it, it IS statistics!

This is pretty much chinese to my

Your list looks like a solid one. I am always scared to put the flaming banner in my main combat block because of Demon princes with 2++ against flaming banners. Also what do you do against lots of armor and 1+ monster cavalry?

I'm still debating whether to sign up for this tournament or not. I'm currently in the end phase of my education, so i don't know if i have the time to finish some painting/converting. I was thinking about this list: Lords 542pt Dreadlord 277pt - General - OTS - Giant blade - Dawnstone - dark steed ...

Comment to Lord Dragons comments: - I did not forget to mention a manticore BSB. I omitted it on purpose, as I find a manticore BSB very vulnerable. The manticore itself comes on a monster base, making it a huge fire magnet, and it does not share in the masters magic item benefits. He will soon fin...

The obvious de word of pain is golden against woc, lowering their i below our executioners, lowering ws and s can make them wiff and loose combat (and thus frenzy, or even run with their lack of ranks). (Boosted) doombolt is the only way i ever killed the nurgle deamon prince (twice haha). Extra dic...

I'm not 100% shure but i think u still need to generate spells randomly with morhati, u can just chose how mamany spells from each lore. So if u just want purple sun from death, be shure to roll a six!

Never really fought undead legions, but my thinking is: witches are core, aband you have to fill core, also witches are imune to fear because of frenzy and have poisen. I would go for witches, mainly because there core

I usually just attack it with warlocks. Usually win aswell with the poisen ad the wardsaves
