frequency of dragonhelm and 2++ against fire in tournaments

Hi,

I'm still intending on taking a very tough unit of cold ones with lord, bsb and life sorceress in there. however, i'm a bit scared of coming up against a character with the dragonhelm or the dragonbane gem. the unit was going to have the flaming banner, but i might just sack it off as that scenario is a bit concerning.

question: how common is it in tournaments to come up against models with wards against flaming attacks? irondrakes, firebellies etc have those wards...


cheers,

wrootsy collins

Pretty common around here. One thing I will mention as well is that if you give Lord or BSB a magic weapon it's not affected by the banner, so you could use that character to engage the 2++ warded guy.
