Hi there, I've had some games against new TKs with my regular opponent (9 years a TK player lol) and here are some thoughts: -Their magic is still very strong, with a Lvl4 plus the help of a nearby Hierotitan, which work similar to our Dagger (+D3 to all spells cast in 12"), they easily cast sp...

Kill the Hirophant or what ever he is call and the whole army begins to crumble. Actually, this is not that true. Tomb Kings boast a good L in their characters and in most of their troop choices, making them very resitant to the death of the Hierophant. Also, the only monsters I realy find interest...

Hi there, Regarding the Lvl2, I was speaking of including both a Lvl4 and a Lvl2, maybe i wasn't clear enough x). The idea is to abuse Dagger + 2 PoD to get lots of PD...dunno if that's actually profitable, never tried it before... As for the DRs...uhm, Corsairs would fit those 150 points so I'm ser...

Hi there fellow druchii, I'm going to start playing 3k games after the end of my ETC adventure this year (didn't manage to reach top8 to go to Switzerland, still reached top10 ^^) so I'd like some help with my first 3k points list: DREADLORD - Soulrender, Blood Armor, Pendant of Khaeleth, Crown of C...

Hi there, No point in paying a Sword of Might for a character killer Dreadlord if you can obtain just the same benefit with a mundane Halberd. Imho, the only reason to take a magic weapon in a Dreadlord is either because you want him to chase ethereal units or because such magical weapon's benefit i...

Hi there, You say you don't want to rely on magic just in case you rolled double 1 in Winds of Magic. I think this is plan wrong, we Dark Elves can make brilliant magic phases with even a double one by simply fielding 2 Sorceress (Lvl4+Lvl2, one with Dagger, the other one with Darkstar Cloak or Scro...

Hi there, I'm considering building a list without CoB and wanted to know if this is at any rate possible. If given it some trys and it just hurts in my soul not to include it. The lists all seem weak to me. I'd like to know if any of you actually plays without a CoB and which tactics/lists do you us...

Hi there, The Plague Furnace actually has an I test: that of the monk crew. The Plague Furnace is a model with several profiles (the Furnace itself plus the crew) so, when affected by a template spell that forces an stat test to all models below the template, it will take the test with the higher st...

Hi there, The Plague Furnace actually has MR2, still Spirit Leech is its bane. Take Death Lore if you decide to take it down by magic. Apart from that, you can aim to kill their Grey Seer who is usually unprotected, or BSB who is always naked. I'd say Death Lore is the best Lore out there to face Sk...

Hi there, I like to put him on a CO since it is utterly important for me to have him with a decent save while having some hitting power (magical if possible). In that sense, I like Minsc, Minigrift and Rabinid's suggestions. I think that Dawnstone (or Luck Stone for a reduced effect) will work becau...

Hi there, I've been trying to figure out how to build a decent BSB that satisfies these two requirements: -Can't have PoK -Still has a decent save -Magic weapon would be very appreciated The thing is that I want to use him along with a Dreadlord who already has PoK and I want him to be protected. I ...

There's a FaQ stating that Assassins cannot use the Cloak if they have not been revealed XD.

Hi there, Meteor, I find your post rather aggresive towards my opinions, dunno i f I read it wrong or what, but let's just keep this friendly XD. I'll now comment on your opinions: Who said anything about PoS killing gunlines? All you need is Withering or Miasma on a gunline and you've got them. Pit...

Ofc I have played Empire gunlines. How does an Engineer make it different?, both warmachines will still be so far from each other that hitting them with a Pit of Shades is a question of mere luck. I don't see any Empire player placing 3-5 warmachines together just to make sure he can use the enginee...

Hi there, You can't be serious about Pit of Shades being a warmachine killer spell. And ofc, it can't handle a gunline, mho: no decent player deploys 2 or 3 warmachines that near each other. You can be lucky and kill 1 warmachine with Pit if: a) it goes off, b) it's not dispelled, c) it doesn't scat...

Hi there, Agreed that Shadow is the best all-rounder imho, but how can Shadow help withstand heavy shooting? I.e: Dwarven/Imperial gunline... In my opinion, Death is nice because of good debuffs (like -3L) and the ability to kill warmachines and characters. Still Shadow seems like the best all-round...

Hi there, The only two warmachines that negate armour are afaik are Boltthrowers, chich cannot target him inside units, and GoblinThrowers (is that the name?) for which certainly there is no LoS and no AS. Still those have to hit him first and then wound him on 4+. Risky, I admit it. There's always ...

Hi there, Dreadlord has Sea Dragon Cloak and Master has Cloak of Hag Graef which already counts as a Sea Dragon Cloak. Switching Crossbowmen to Corsairs would help reduce the amount of shooting but I don't feel like having a 10 man Corsair unit good for nothing...Maybe I could replace Crossbowmen an...

Hi there, Shadow magic helps surviving, that's just true, but I was thinking of Death Magic forkilling certain units that I find difficulty getting rid of: Plague Furnace or warmachines. Harpies are there to die, just as Dark Riders, I have no problem with that. Either they will try to hunt warmachi...

Hi there, I'm in the process of creating 3 lists (points-denial, corsair themed, khainite themed) and I'm almost done with the first one, but I'm having trouble creating the second one because I always come up with a shooty one. This is the list I eventually came up with, tested it but wasn't a very...

Hi there, I want to create a list for a local tourney and for the first time I want to run a completely fluff-based list. Either a Temple of Khaine list or a corsair pirate force list. I am a tournament player though, I like to play to win, so I can't avoid trying to include certain things in my lis...

Hi there, How would that unkillable units look like? I was trying to build up some tough, reliable CC units but only Knights looked like resilient enough while killy. I do't think that any of our infantries make good unkillable units. Also I still want to have some units for redirections/etc (riders...

Hi there, This is a 2400 points denial list; this means it is meant to give very few points to the enemy while wining some VPs over the 6 turns. What I want is to maximize it's hitting power while kkeping it a points-denial list. Let's see if you can give some piece of advice for enhancing it's resi...

Hi there, Nice report, as usual. This time vs Dwarfs. I really hate them XD, I always have a hard time fighting them; their shooting is just too much. My dwarf opponents usually play 2 Grudgthrowers, 2 Organ Guns and a Gyrocopter, plus 40 Xbows/Thunderers...and an Anvil of Doom...XD. I really find i...

Hi there, Against Skaven, a Death Lore Lvl4/2 can make a lot of damage either by Spirit Leeching the Furnace (unmodified L = 0 = lots of wounds), sniping the BSB (most usually naked), hexing the HPA, or even throwing Purple Sun at the Furnace and kill half the unit (and 50% chance to kill the Furnac...
