What happened was that in 8th everybody strikes in initiative order and at I3 they're likely to be hit first and die. And they no longer break ranks. You can still use them, they're just more of a glass cannon now. Last game I witnessed the Skaven player charge a unit of Minotaurs with them and both units evaporated.

Maybe a clanrat unit or the assassin?

And just to clarify, when I said both units I meant the PCBs and Minos, they hit each other and *bamf* gone.

You can no longer take dupliactes of dispell scrolls. (so the engineer will need to leave one at home).

I also agree that PCBs aren't that good anymore.

With the HPA you may want to save the points by dropping the spikes; the MR from the spikes will not beat out your regen save unless it's a fire spell, inwhich case a 6+ magic resist ward won't be doing you much good. The only reason to ever take spikes anymore is if you playing on having your HPA fight forest spirits, ghosts, or other ethereals (like the highelf invunerable combo, or a phased-slann).

Your slave blocks will need to be bigger; you want them to hold in combat for more than 1 round against moderate to massive enemy units. 20 used to cut it, but you need 35+ for them to really shine.

If you're still looking to shave off more cost, a sword of might will get you str 5 attacks for much cheaper (you'd just be missing out on the WAW's +1A).

is 5 ROgres enough? or is it too few for them to see combat?

Ugh, against vamps I will so miss that scroll : ((

Dropped the PCBs and Spikes and scroll, at 1609. 109 points to boot, maybe 20 more for slaves to be largened. 35 is a lot ...

Another problem is with the heroes, all in all, are 5 points too expensive, and i would like to kit the assassin cheaper, but am very afraid of high armor saves ._. Like that vamp armor that grants 2+ AS.
