this was my 1500 pestilens list ambushed by 1000 all cav bretonnians. setting: a forest. reply for more details.

i took 2x20 monk units with 2x6 accompanying censers, a chantor and 2 plague priests, one with the liber. also 3 giant rat packs as a unit, 10 pwgs, a 3-base plague swarm, and 2x20 slave units.

she had 4 GK, 5 QK, 2x6 KotR, a paladin and a 2nd lvl damsel.

my magic did crap. pestilent breath is hard to get off with just 2 dice (damn GW should allow all those appendix wizards to buy 2nd lvl). the censers sucked as they got flank charges, i.e. they never touched more than 3 knights, and killed 3 times as many of themselves than the enemy.

the characters were the only real weapons i had. both plague priests rocked (both had flails, the non-liber one had BoP) and the chantor kicked ass too (i gave him a censer AND the twisted crown hahaha).

oh! and lest i forget. one of my naked slave units were charged by 4 grail knights... and won! didn't catch them on the pursue but did manage to chase them off the table.

tomorrow's the big battle. my bonus? my pestilens flankers get to arrive on turn 3 on a 3+ instead of a 4. i hope Xerxes can hold down the line until Grulskruk shows up.

Good lord!
Did they actually cause any casualties? Or just win through CR?
I had a sort of similar thing with Night Runners, where they were charged by KotR, and managed to kill 2 of the pesky armoured blighters.
