Civil War's Sneakiest Player of 'em All

great horde army, though i dont think you can have 3 banners of the swarms... othewise, congrats truly, its a difficult list to play with IMO against all those opponents, so very nicely done! |

Chaos git

Also, although I havn't read the Skaven book so I can't be sure, it should follow under the normel no more than one of the same item per army rule. |

Then, well deserved congrats. I played with an exclusively pestilens list during storm of chaos (appendix list), and it is quite hard to manage the frenzy when facing a good player, but really rewarding if you beat them. Just a couple of Q's to clarify some situations for you to be even better next time. How did you place your pestilent breaths ? Did you knew that the template has the same size has the charge range, meaning if you place yourself so you can breath, you have to charge next turn because of frenzy ? And that in CC, the spell hits both sides ? Also, you don't blow yourself up with 1's on pestilent breath (unless with a miscast that result in blowing upZ) About the banners, you all right. Only 1 monk unit can take a magical banner, as well as only one copy of a magical item in an army. A tip about your army: With the points saved on swarm banners, also remove the 20 naked clanrats and put in 2 units of plague censer bearers. That unit always add a big punch and they skirmish at the same time. On your characters, put flails. The St6 on the first turn of hth is really worth it. On the plague lord, drop the gouger. With St4, it's difficult to wound something. Put desolate blade instead. St6 and -3 save means you wound way more, and except heavy cavalry (that'll have a 5+ save), youstill remove most units armor saves. And me, i didn't use chantors. I put in a Bsb with storm banner instead (and trapped and beat morathi with it :lol: ) But all in all, a good list |

questions and tips from Antherak_173. ( dont really get that qoute thingy yet..) Q:¨ How did you place your pestilent breaths ? Did you knew that the template has the same size has the charge range, meaning if you place yourself so you can breath, you have to charge next turn because of frenzy ? And that in CC, the spell hits both sides ? A: Well... I mostly used them in cc.. thats what i mostly used the slaves for,, and if the plauge priest gets into close combat... doesnt matter, of course the chantor died in cc a couple of times.. but after taking down bret knights I didn't really care .. but i must admit I was pretty lucky at some of the throws...Q: Also, you don't blow yourself up with 1's on pestilent breath (unless with a miscast that result in blowing upZ) A: I did refer to double 1's on the misfire chart. tips: A tip about your army: With the points saved on swarm banners, also remove the 20 naked clanrats and put in 2 units of plague censer bearers. That unit always add a big punch and they skirmish at the same time. Thanks, ill do that! On your characters, put flails. The St6 on the first turn of hth is really worth it. I did do that, I just didn't write on the list, sorry. On the plague lord, drop the gouger. With St4, it's difficult to wound something. Put desolate blade instead. St6 and -3 save means you wound way more, and except heavy cavalry (that'll have a 5+ save), youstill remove most units armor saves. I see your point, i'll do that next time! And me, i didn't use chantors. I put in a Bsb with storm banner instead (and trapped and beat morathi with it :lol: ) hmm.. I like that idea, but i still love the extra power/dispel dice.. But all in all, a good list ' Thanks ;D |

no way to avoid that one I have to say... way to show that young people can still kick some ass! (I am one of the top players in Halifax I think :P) |

Nicely done. For you young players: The reason some more elderly people don't want to play with younger players is due to the stereotype of immaturity that some give to the rest of you. Just show good sportsmanship, maturity, and self-control during your games and you'll quickly rid your local bunker of that stereotype ... at least for you (you can't control the immature ones your age )

Well good going !! Even though I'm now 17 (and if I said I was 20 people would believe me) I played at 13 too ... and you do get these annoying people :/ aniway I now play against all, except idiots (usually non young actually) who I know spend their time annoying you during the battle (generally lack of fairplay and sportsmanship :x ) (note thas this means I played with them at least once) |

Sebrent, you are so right! But would you maybe agree with me that it is immature to judge people before they have not even played with the person. Stay warped! |

Aye, I do agree that it is very foolish to judge someone by their age. I've met many youngens who are 13 who make many of the people I see at college look like infants and toddlers as far as maturity goes(sigh, the depravity and stupidity of college life). |

Well, if they say "Oh, you're young, so you must be immature! You can't play with our toys!" is, in my opinion, a little on the immature side.... Also, they forgot to pick up on your slight mistakes considering magic items! Gotta love Alzheimer Well done with your well-earned victory! |

I am mid twenties, and play against young people all the time, because they care more about gaming then winning, unlike those fat-no women-no future- no past- 30ish- bastards. They made me hate tournaments! And they allways make comments about my ratogres, how they suck in battle and such. Gotta hate them. |
