I think that you could probably get buy without the vox network. You only need to have one model within 12 of the officer to get his leadership. Also, The lascannon you have in your veteran squad seems to conflict with their role as a mobile assault unit. The multi flamer unit is always good for the...

Excellent. Lots of comments Lose the seal? I think 4 DD and a scroll should be enough to last the first turns, and your core and shades are excellent mage hunters. You can then give your master a nice pointy magic stick like death piercer or even Caledor's bane. Remember, I only have one scroll. I f...

Well, I should probably say that this list would just be an alternative list to use in friendly games. I would be using my master on a Manticore as the LV 4 with heavy armour 'counts as' the Pendant. I know that it isn't the best mount, but I'm looking forward to the tactical challenge of making it ...

The question is, would I have enough power dice to effectively use my casters without those power stones? I'm sorely tempted to take another LV2 instead of the Hydra if I do remove the suggested things. Oh yeah, Dispel scrolls are now 5 more points than a power stone so you are 10 points off To addr...

I had to chose death, because although metal is awesome against certain armies it completely fails against orcs and goblins and beastmen.
Death is useful as long as you don't fight immune to psychology, and even then the magic missiles and RIP cause fear are nice.

A Null talisman would definitely be a good idea, but it says in the FAQ that a model can't have a null talisman and another talisman. I think I need the pendant more. I definitely think that a scroll would be a good idea though. Do you think it would be better to free up points and give one to my LV...

Now that was an excellent tale. The action scenes were spot on, and the description of the chaos wastes was jaw dropping. I particularly liked the dragon and the wanderer.

I think that taking a level four on a pegasus with no ward save might is a huge risk. If you really love your magic items, I suggest that you move the pendant to the LV 4, the lifetaker to your BSB(higher BS), and one of your dispel scrolls to your LV 2. I would also probably switch one of your disp...

No more scaly green?

After buying a good 35ish models to finally finish off my army, I have realized that games workshop no longer produces my main colour. This will be a huge problem if I want to maintain a sense of coherency within my ranks. Do you guys know a good way to mimic the old scaly green? Any and all comment...

Yup, my assassin was also lackluster in my last game.
Five hits caused zero wounds to a unit of boarboys, so I failed my leadership test and ran.
I couldn't believe that manbane had completely failed me. :(

Hello, and congratulations on deciding to move to fantasy You seem to have the right idea with your list, but there is one detail I noticed.

If you really want multi purpose, you may want to consider the black dragon egg. I have found that it is nice to be able to get that deadly flame template down at critical times.

I run mine with heavy armour, sea dragon cloak, enchanted shield, lance and the egg, and it always is useful.

Thanks for the reply. I seriously doubt that I will ever get a real jungle battle in with my catachans.
