So I've got a WYSIWYG tourney coming up, and I'm broke. UP side is it's only 1K, so I should be able to do this. First is my list, second is my available models. I'm allowed 1 unit of proxy, if it's on the appropriate bases.

Grey Seer - General
(spell suggestions?)

BSB - Shield, Add'l HW - 74
Leroy (Warlock Engineer) - Doom Rocket - 45
(Leroy is not optional, his weapon is)

Rat Dart (5 rats/1PM) - 23
Rat Dart (5 rats/1PM) - 23

28x Clanrats - Shields, Std& Muscian, WepTeam- 203
- Plaguewind Mortar
(GreySeer and BSB go here, I expect it might see combat)
35x Slaves

25x Plague Monks - FC - Plague Banner - 230

Warp Lightning Cannon

Totals - 1000 points - 105 Models - 6 Units

What I have to work with:
"Model Inventory"

22 views and no comments. Am I to assume this is the best you can do with the models I have?

I can use some clanrats as slaves, as they're all just base brown at the moment. I wish I'd have known more when we started glueing them, as I wasn't paying attention to slave head -> slave body as I should have been. But you'll note most of the stupid things have spears though, and I haven't started the long process of despearing the stupid things.

If it helps I'm 99% sure I'm pulling Dark Elves for week 1.

So I'm my 2 redirectors for second Tarpit, and losing the Clanrat's DoomBalloon for increased power in the PlagueMonks.

Monks still aren't thick enough to afford Horde, so it'll be 35 double rerollers 1 time, and hopefully enough to deal with the rest. Grey Seer should be picking of which lists you think? Definately going to want 13th, since a Bad round with the Monks and a Misfire will leave me unarmed otherwise.

related: here's a shot of the Clanrat's represntative figures I shot at lunch.

The darkest are the Naked Rats (no shields or spears) they get used for Slaves.
The lights have a 25 man unit of spear/shield.
The medium are Army Painter "Rat Fur" brown. All the just shield, and half the shield/spear are that color.
The spear no shield are all still sprue Grey, and so didn't get invited to the photo shoot.

An additional handweapon on a BSB is a combat upgrade. You do not want your BSB in combat, unless you plan on fighting slaves and gnoblars exclusively, otherwise, you want him safe and giving rerolls to your army. If you give him an extra hand weapon he has to use it, meaning all that's standing between him and death is 5+ armor and 2 wounds; he could die in 1 round against mediocre enemy units.

Take a shield instead. You aren't bringing him to fight, you're bringing him to control your leadership.

the Bsb gets an additional hand weapon because i assumed he was using the iob warlord. as for spells if your playing elves i would say plague definately although it does depend on what else you think you might be up against

I know the current list includes 2 or 3 Ogres, 1 Wood Elves, 2 or 3 Skaven (inc. me), 2 or 3 Dark Elves, a High Elves. 1 Ork. BUUUUTTTT... The Games are played on Saturday, with a 'makeup' game on Wednesday if needed. I can't play Saturdays, and I know there's a Dark Elf player that can't play the first Saturday, so I'm pretty sure he's my opponent.

NO, each week I get 250 points, and I get to Shuffle everything around. Also last go round (40K) they gave us our opponent for next week, so I'll know exactly what to plan for as I advance.

I'm gonna have fun when we break 1500 unless I buy more models.

Yeah I did this too (with the slaves at any rate). Got the right heads on though.

As I understand WYSIWYG it doesn't apply to heroes or lords since you regularly equip them with magical items which are/can't be represented on the model.

As to the list I am partial to Tawzz 1k. The unit size is better and the second unit of slaves would be way more useful than the darts at this points lvl.

@ 1250 I would add them in but not at 1k.

For what you're up against I'd suggest taking 3 plague and 1 ruin for you spells, though howling warpgail would be great against DE.

TRADE
I'm looking for Dark Eldar to convert into DE. Also looking for bretonnia lances and halberds. If anyone has any they would be interested in trading PM me and we can work something out.


"And, most vivid of all, there was the dramatic epic of the rats––the scampering army of obscene vermin which had burst forth from the castle three months after the tragedy that doomed it to desertion––the lean, filthy, ravenous army which had swept all before it and devoured fowl, cats, dogs, hogs, sheep and even two hapless human beings before its fury was spent. Around that unforgettable rodent army a whole separate cycle of myths revolves, for it scattered among the village homes and brought curses and horrors in its train."

You could just glue a spare shield on his forearm.

And the halberd he's carrying can't be considered a second hand weapon nor could he carry a hand weapon with the halberd so already he's breaking WYSIWYG. In short the rule only applies to rank and file troops.
