WoC Ideas (8th Ed)

Post by jyrik »

Hi all

I recently dropped some cash and picked up a bunch of WoC to start up and army there. However, I have yet to win a game with them.

My impression of them was that most people seem to pick up a bunch of Chosen and fill their core with Chaos Warriors. I've done this and been brutally redirected every game. When I have gotten my Chosen into combat, they'be been brutal, but the issue is getting them there. I have been running 3 units of Marauder Horsemen, but they're not really sufficient to deal with all of the speedbumps and redirects sent my way. Skullcrushers are glorious, but they are also sent careering off into the far corners of nowhere.

Any suggestions about some general strategies with WoC?

I'm no WoC expert, but I've seen my opponents use some chaos hounds chaff units screening their big infantry blocks, to avoid redirection.
Basically you charge the enemy's redirectors with your hounds and marauder horsemen.
But you'd better wait for some more qualified advice.
