I am not experienced in comps or tournaments, but wouldn't limiting the models of a certain type only reinforce powerplay? Because every model counts, they need to be buffed to an insane amount. I think a limit on points invested would help softer choices come into the game. The rest I would balanc...

We're planning on running a small tournament soon and want some comp rules for it.

No comp system brings diversity. It may bring diversity from other comp systems but within itself, people will always find "the best list" and stick with it. True, I think diversity was the wrong wording now that I think about it. What I mean is that we want a comp system that limits the ...

Me and my friends who I regularly play with have been thinking of creating our own comp system to bring more diversity and fun to our games. Our goal is to create a comp system that can be applied to all armies. Here's what we've come up with so far: Max 1 magic item from own army book No duplicate ...

Dark riders work very well if the whole front rank is filled with characters. Dark riders doesnt do that much damage so they work nice as just filling ranks behind masters to break steadfast while warlocks is kind of waste to just be in support ranks, atleast when in combat (its great to get ranks f...

You can only target the cauldron with template weapons/cannons as far as I know.

They don't need the shield in order to get the 1+ AS, although shield/light armour is cheaper than heavy armour, if I remember correctly. I'd still go for the S6, though, just as Calisson says. I went halberds since I have potentially 3 spells that can boost my strenght and being stronger in grinds...

Me and my friends are gonna try some swedish comp in the 8-13 range for our next few games. I'm kinda new to this comp system and would like some feedback on this list that I plan on using. Dreadlord - Cold one, shield, sea cloak, giant blade, dawnstone, OTS 276pts Supreme sorceress - level 4 Beasts...

Hey Islands, is there any chance you have a plog on here already or any other pics of your peggy? Looks awesome mate. I love how dynamic you made him, it looks like he is just about to connect his charge. I don't have a plog, but I could definately upload a few more pics. It took quite some time to...

The problem is that I can't both focus on wraits and leech at the same time (I have a tendency to roll 2+1 on magic ). But I guess the focus should be doombolt on wraits, and when they are gone I can start focus on Leech? He usually bring his general in a black knight unit. But I guess leech is sni...

Hexwraiths are so dangerous that you should always cast doombolts at them with as many dice as possible. That should keep them on the defensive. Yes death is really good, VC players always freak out when you cast spirit leech on their general and will most likely dispel it at all cost which will ope...

Supreme sorceress - Level 4 Life, dark steed, dispel scroll, ring of hotek 315pts Master - Dark pegasus, full armor, lance, cloak of twilight 188pts Master - BSB, heavy armor, sea cloak, dawnstone, sword of might, enchanted shield 155pts 16 Crossbowmen - standard, musician 212pts 5 Dark riders - cro...

My dark peg got Vargheist wings

I'm looking for a good way to use an Executioner horde in a 2500pts game. The only thing I think they need is some kind of boost to their survivability because without rerolls to hit, they need to make it into combat fairly untouched to get good damage in. Life magic could be a good alternative for ...

No comp.

a few days ago, my CoB + 29 witches with razor banner faced off against Festus in a horde of mark of nurgle chaos warriors. I had them debuffed with soulblight and he had a -1 T nurgle spell on me. My witches only killed 6 nurgle warriors :O In return he killed 8 from me and ran med down lol. Math ...

I would recommend using witches and if you do, use them as either sacrificial 10man units or a horde with cauldron. I'm not that impressed with executioners or cold one knights. I use heroes and bolt throwers for armor busting. Having atleast 2 bolt throwers is very useful in any list.

I'd say DE require a lot more skill to play now then the previous book atleast. I feel like it's more challanging and more rewarding for tactical play. Sure there are still a few units that are quite easy and forgiving to use like CoB + witches and warlocks but I don't think they're on the same leve...

I'm not sure about Morathi in a shooting army, you can't risk giving away that many points to cannon shots since you depend so much on magic. Without magic, shooting alone can't do that much damage.

I've used a horde of 28 witch elves with cauldron in my past 15 games and It has almost never dissapointed me. The rest of my army is pretty much all shooting and magic to focus down enemy chaff. I've only lost it twice, turn one to a cannon :S and one time it got run down by silverhelms supported b...

Since the new release I've been thinking of doing something like this. Now I've got inspiration do actually do it. Awesome conversion!

I've realised that I have a hard time to built a solid all-round list with any of our infantry units except witch elves with the cauldron. Everything else just die to a soft breeze. I guess MSU infantry could work okay, but fast cav, bolt throwers and lots out mounted characters seem like the most c...

Slann with lore of light is awesome against DE. Some range spells to clear fast cav or small units, protection spell against shooting, time warp making you strike at the same time and canceling out their rerolls to hit + getting double movement is incredible good to catch elves with. Speed of light ...
