2000pts Mongoblins!
Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 9:33 am
I got an O&G book, mana-mana.
So here's a first run at a Mongoblin army list, at 2000pts. Oops, most of the thing I want to include are surprisingly expensive when tallied up and all... I didn't want to clitter up (yes, clitter, don't argue) my P&M thread, it's already got enough fluff-debate, something like four entire pages... any further than I already have
Anyways, feel free to give any opinions on this list you may have.
When I first started to build, I realised I wasn't going to be able to put in anything like the amount of units I had originally envisaged. So I've had to trim things down a little. I also realised that a number of cool units were just not going to make it in at all, too, as there really wasn't a useful place for them, or else their place was needed by a more useful unit. So goodbye, Nokut, the original Mongoblins, dang it.
Here goes :
Heroes
Goitra Khan
Black Orc Big Boss, Boar, Heavy Armour, Enchanted Shield, Sword of Battle
125pts.
Sword of Might, if I could afford it.
Lu Chu
Orc Great Shaman, 2 scrolls, Ironback Boar
265pts.
- Surprise, jackass!
Mengudei Khan
Goblin Big Boss, Wolf, Sneaky Skewerer, Bigged's Kickin Boots, Light Armour
Battle Standard
114pts
Joins Mangudai with Standard.
Core
Hoyen-irgen
5 wolfriders, muso
66pts
5 Wolfriders, muso
66pts
Harassment
Hoyen-irgen khorche
5 Wolfriders, bows, muso
72pts
5 Wolfriders, bows, muso
72pts
Harassment : mainly to die instead of the ones without bows. The bows say "shoot us first'.
Fire-raisers Where's Lonely Shade with that awesome title he promised?
5 Spider Riders, muso
71pts
More! harassment. These guys might even make it thru to the Warmachines.
Bagatur
25 Orc Boys, shields, full command
180pts.
We all need a solid block sometimes. Gork knows, they may even provide Lu Chu with some power dice.
Special
Keshik
15 Boarboys, Boss
347pts
Bodygaurd for Goitra Khan and his adviser Lu Chu.
Artillery train
2 Spear Chukkas
120pts
Rare
Zhang Liao's Wolf Gun
1 Galloper gun and Bronzino
165pts
1999pts altogether.
So there you go. If there's anything obviously wrong with this list, I sure would like to know. I suppose some things that come to mind are :
A rather fragile BSB
A rather thin magic defense
A rather weak magic offense
Could anyone add to that?
All comments appreciated -
Layne.
