Hey all hopefully got a list i dont need to change too much vs LM and DE since theyre pretty much the only people i can play at our local...sadly few fantasy players, damn u 40K!! lol Love to hear some comments on the following list from the more experienced of you Grey seer, 2 stones, 2 scrolls priest, flail, SMT, scrying stone, furnace engineer, lvl2, condenser, doomrocket 30 clanrats, shields, standard, musician, WFT 21 slaves, musician 21 slaves, musician rat dart rat dart rat dart 30 plague monks, standard, plague banner (furnace here obviously) 5 jezzails 6 censer bearers HPA, spikes Doomwheel = 2000 9PD + D3 tokens + 2 stones + condenser / 6DD + 2 scrolls 11 deploys + characters, 136 models So any thoughts? plan was to get two battalions for most of it, then add jezzails and doomwheel in, basically its to try and keep it cheap for a hoarde army, i know i get bits to convert some censers from extra monks il have, and use the grey seer from bell box as lord, then convert some rat ogres into HPA Thanks for reading |

Actually I think this list would do fairly well against lizardmen...I play against a similar list with mine, and it is very very hard to go up against.... Against lizardmen, I propose trying to go after the skinks, using the rat darts and slaves as screens....if they get a shot at your HPA, you can say goodbye to it... 60+ poisoned shots are never good

On the list in general, I would take the stormbanner instead of the plaguebanner, giving you a hell of a lot more missile protection against the coldbloods. Logically that means skipping the jezzails for another unit of censer bearers for example. Secondly, change the WFT for RG= more firepower! hope that helps!

Despite it being one use only it still effectively negates shooting for a whole turn (maybe more). That should be long enough to close with the enemy and get into close combat. |

It's particularly good against Lizardmen. The Skink blowpipes rely pretty much exclusively on poison to actually do damage. Under the effects of a Stormbanner it's very likely to negate their poison, as poison can't work if you need a 7+ or worse to hit. One turn free of blowpipes is more than worth the stormbanner. ![]() I'd keep the Jezzails too though. If the Lizard brings a Stegodon, you'll be glad to have them. If the Dark Elf brings a War Hydra you'll be even MORE glad you have them. Between the Jezzail range and the Large Target-ness of those two, you'll probably be able to start taking shots on Turn 1, be briefly interrupted by the banner and then send the Jezzails back to work when the banner runs out.
How many Lizardman armies have you seen that run 6-lizard units? Only the bell itself causes fear, not the unit you push it with. |
