Ok... everything went as planned except for one thing... Slayers stood one turn longer than I expected... we finished on turn 5 and I needed 6th to win! It was a draw so not bad but it could be better (and if it wasn't capture I would win because all he had standing was 11 Ironbrakers, 8 thunderers ...

no... he doesn't look like dwarf... he just thinks he's one... and that may be his downfall :) he's easy to offend :P and offended players don't think what they are doing :)

his characters are lame! his best IMO is his runesmith because he has great weapon... 6 S4 attacks from his lord aren't scary... he costs around the same and is weaker than my dragon!

well... there's not THAT much forest... Dragon is still very effective, and with our special reduced line of sight (24" for this scenario) it can be out of sight of most of his artillery long enough....

This wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't capture... I must get rid of ironbrakers as fast as possible... I plan deploying on both flanks with dragon and knights on flank far from organ gun and try to kill him by crushing his units one by one... Knights and dragon combined break any unit in his army.....

Rune of spite is talisman..
and he can take runes on great weapon but it loses all it's stats (so no +2S no 2 hands to use and no strike last. In other word he paid 6pts for hand weapon :P)

Lore of Fire for Druchii

Don't you think that Druchii should be able to use Lore of Fire?
After all it's a lore connected with destruction... and Druchii like destruction very much :)

Naaaa... spiders are not Druchii style... they're not smart, and they're not big. And if they have none of these characteristics, I don't think any self-respecting druchii lord would use them for anything. I think that giant spiders (not swarms) would fit druchii style nicely. They are fast, stupid...

It's most useful against Slann IMO... they only get 4+ ward and if that fails there's high probability (sp?) that he will fail T test (only T 5 after all :P). other than killing multiwound tough characters/monsters with no or little save it's useless...

It is but it is unlikely that it will die after one round of enemy shooting (and if you give your enemy more that one round then you either don't know how to use dragon or you play without terrain....)

Only High Elves, Empire and some other army can do that by taking Asarnil the Dragonlord as 2 heroes and rare slot... he's RoR unit

I'd put the highborn on a manticore instead of a dragon and give him gauntlet of power, crown of black iron, heavy armour, SDC and a shield. He's armed like he is because I got bored of the combination you suggested. And I'll never play 2k battle without a Dragon... I just LOVE dragons Also drop 1 ...

I voted for Gauntlet since I use it almost in every battle. Combined with Crown of Balck Iron... (Dragon Lord without ward save is dead quite fast). But I tend to limit using Gauntlet (Don't like 40k wargear too much) and will experiment with other stuff...

you're assuming too much... There's high chance soulstealer will be dispelled... but even if not: You get charged then 4 attacks (gors have additional hand weapons) 2 hit wound. Sorceress strike back. hit no wound unless lucky. Now result. Outnumber wound standard. that's 3:0. How long can you stand...
