A Wee Little Army to kick some serious butt with!

Well, I'm planning on playing in the Edmonton Warhammer Players Society for the first time this coming Friday, and decided to take a simple army so that I can get a few games in and just meet the people there. Of course, what other army can there be besides the DE, so, that's what I'm taking. It will a 500 point list (which is tough for us DE) and will be dictated by the models that I have available (and are mostly painted). Granted, I do have other models (like, way more) but most are unpainted or wouldn't be good in a 500 point list (COK's come to mind). Anyway, any suggestions would be handy as I probably will have the models to sub, but here goes.

Noble - crimson death, ha, sdc
Cold One

16 Warriors - sheilds, musician, standard

10 Warriors - rxbs, sheilds

Cold One Chariot - spears

I'd put the noble in the chariot. It saves 26 points, and give the chariot US 5, as well as making the noble less vulnerable to shooting (other than cannons) Those points can get you another two rxbmen and a shield.

why not put the noble on foot, make the warriors unit 10 get rid of the chariot although it's good and put some black guard cause they won't run away.

Noble in chariot. Get rid of crimson death and use a regular halberd.

Saves ...40 points or so which can be used to by more troops. However I do like your list as is. Very characterful.

One Word. Herpes. You can easily get them {put noble in the Chariot and Give him a Halberd instead, plus lose the musician}, they spread fast {they will get across the battlefield in no time}, and they'll cause a great deal of discomfort. Plus, it'll be very, very hard to get rid of them.

Herpes? Sorry, I'm not really in the mood for some herpes (joke, by the way! I'm not one of those anal people who freaks out!)

Anyway, thanks for your feedback. I may seriously put my noble in a chariot and give him a great weapon or halberd. Then, I could take some harpies! Or some shades. Something that increases my mobility. Definitely not going to drop the chariot, however, as I need to have something realitively hard hitting in order to take out knights or something.

Yes, I have now decided that that is what I'm going to do. Besides, my chariot already has converted black guard standing in the back (oh...they look so hot!) and I can just use one as my noble. Excellent. And harpies are in! Once again, thanks for those little "tweaks" and stuff I never would have thought of!

P.S. I generally only take a COC in an army that already has cold ones, so that is why my noble was mounted on one. It's just kind of a fluff thing, know what I'm saying?

Get a GW for the noble, put him in the chariot, get some harpies or shades, depends on what you like the most
