Starting from februari, my local warhammer shop is gonna do a campaign. The idea is to paint 250 points every month. (so we started painting now and another 250 in januari and another 250 februari... and so one, until everyone is bored and sick of it and nobody shows up anymore. ) so in Februari the wars will begin wil little 500 skirmishes between the different armies. I want to really kick some ass and show everyone who's boss around here (which is of course, my girlfriend). So this is my idea: 5 gutter runners with slings and poison 5 gutter runners with slings and poison 38 clanrats with shield , musician 1 chieftain with BSB 1 WLE lvl 1 (This just occured to me... if my chieftain has the BSB, do i still need a banner bearer in my army for the extra point? ) The WLE will be the general of course. Any thoughts on this matter? I want to be able to beat anything else. (At 500 points I have the advantage of being able to choose a lot more options then most of the foes. Since our models cost so little in points.) I have been thinking of dropping one gutter unit and replace them with a 35 unit of slaves with shield. Just let me know what you think. |

I think this would work against most armies. 2 Gutter Runner units would really whittle down your opponents units so that even your Clanrats can take them on. |

Personally i'd field a fire thrower in 500 points. Most armies don't have lord lvl chars not a BSB so the forced panic test if they take a casualty can be a game winner. Also i wouldn't field a lvl 1 in 500 points, every dice for winds of magic above the 6 is lost because you can only use 6 dice per spell. Maybe make him lvl 2 or give him a ruby ring of fire. Doesn't matter what, as long as you have something to waste dice on, and force your opponent to think about dispelling instead of just dispelling your one warplightning a turn. As far for slaves, drop one unit gutter runners and upgrade the other one to 6. Use the points to get some slaves. 35 naked ones should do in 500 points :-) p.s. might swing by in Ghent to see how you're doing in the campaign.... Flem, |
