The extra hand weapon model on the dark steed is just a cruel joke. Either that or the sculptor just doesn't play 7th edition or something equally stunning.

Try to squeeze in a good old sword o' might on your lord. That way you address a couple concerns. You have your magic weapon for wraiths and such and you have your minimum S5 all the time for good staying power. I think sword of might with the can opener potion in your hip pocket (or saddle bag) for...

I like your list it has nice synergy. It reminds me of my high elf infantry list except that the DE has much better core support units. It seems like you played very well and had a little bit of luck which are both required to place well in decent tournaments. How does your army fair against enemy t...

Does a Mage on a pegasus have 360 line of sight for the purposes of Magic? Its been a while and I haven't come across that in the Red Tomb. No she does not. Tht is why a lot of folks like the focus familiar over the black staff. You can be successful either way but you run the risk of having the pe...

Consider tweaking the first list a litte as follows: Drop the Shaggoth, use the model but field it as a Giant with mutant monstrousity saves about 120 points and is just as effective in a lot of cases. Drop the trolls saving 220 points. Drop the undivided bray shaman saving 166 pts. Spend your new f...

The sorceress just doesn't have enough attacks to make use of that lance IMO.

Get yourself some harpies as fast as possible.

I just don't have a lot of love for the corsairs with handbows.
Screening stuff with harpies works better for the most part because they are so much more mobile and can get out of the way very quickly.

No its not. The Tzeentch mark also provides +1 to cast for sorcerers. Unless you are a sorcerer or otherwise have access to a ward save it is definitely a subpar choice.

1) you are correct you have a limited access to high strength attacks but you do have a good number of S4 attacks. Personally, I am not sold on the corsairs with handbows. You have 2 rbts and about 70 rxb shots per round do you really need the handbows as well? Consider dropping that corsair unit an...

Depending upon your domestic situation you can spray Dullcote in the wash room, if and only if, you have vent fan. As long as you do a few models at a time (no more than 10 or so) you are applying such light coats that you can spray indoors and avoid the weather issues. I have done it many times jus...

The BSB on foot with the soulrender in the BG with the ASF flag is a good plan. ASF is just as good as armor in a lot of instances as he can kill the troops in btb with him before they have a chance to get through his armor.

On the whole, I like the list. You have a bit of almost everything.

This seems to be the most straightforward approach. You could also use the Morathi on pegaus figure but you will need some lower legs/feet for her.

New mounted dread lord has an extra hand weapon! Why?
Female model looks good.

The other one looks good by comparison to the rest.

No real reason to double up on BG. Mostly you will see one unit with the flag of ASF. Shades are always popular, CoCs and CoKs slightly less common.

Layne gives good advice when he says to browse through the army list forum and have a gander at the builds posted over there.

In smaller games especially, the chariot is a great mount for a master. Just Master, BSB with warbanner breaks ranks and starts out a +2 CR. Std of Slaughter is even more fun. With the noble in there the Ld9 helps mitigate the stupidity issue and the chariot does not eat a special slot. Cannons can ...

Shades or RXB warriors unless you want to put her on a horse then I would suggest considering another unit of DRs to escort her.
