Yes, it was a swedish event where your comp score at the end of the event was determined by your swedish score x2. It also determined your first two games. My list came in at 14.2 and I loved it. The one thing i would change is to put handbows on the corsairs, for a little extra shooting and utility. Other than that the list performed way better than expected and I never felt like I didnt have the tools to deal with any list. You have to give up some units to get the bigger points, but the list plays well if you know your matchups well and trade efficiently. It has a lot of movement and small threats that do a lot of damage. Also my chaff is usually better than everyone else, and every game I won the chaff war which is incredibly important to this list, as I said before you need to get your matchups right.
Game 1
Wood elves with a sisters star, two big glade guard blocks, a unit of dryads, 2 wild rider units, a unit of waywatchers and some scouts. The deathstar had like 3 mages and two heroes on steeds. I realized I wouldnt really be able to catch the sisters so i avoided them and just went after the rest of his army, while keeping the sisters from moving around too much. In the end i had destroyed his whole army except the sisters but lost most of mine in return. He got a lot of points turn 6 when he rolled 17 for the hail of doom at close range against my 4 corsairs that were left and all my heroes.
Small loss to me
Game 2
Skaven with 2 doomwheels, 4 ratling guns, a unit of jezails, BIG stormvermin block with all the characters except the grey seer, and like 3 clanrats units. This game was kind of uneventful. I threw masters at doomwheels and shot them with bolt throwers until they died. Ran at the rest of his blocks and avoided the stormvermin all game. I did get his greyseer who was in some clanrats and at the end of the game had only lost my darkriders, a master on steed, and a witch block.
Big win to me
Game 3
Nurgle warriors. This list scared me as it had a chimera, nurgle prince, 5 knights of nurgle, a big unit of warriros with a Nurgle lord and bsb, 2 dog units, and 2 nurgle horsemen units. I had to play this list carefully and deployed so all my units supported each other. I got the demonprince turn 3 with bolt throwers, and the chimera and Knights with the witches. Again I avoided the warrior unit and by the end of the game had lost dark riders, witches, and the two heroes, while all he had left was his unit with lord and bsb.
Big win to me
Game 4
Skaven with 2 doomwheels, 12 ratogres with the special character that gives them a special rule in the beginning of the game, warp lightning cannon, 2 slave blocks, 2 clanrat blocks, bsb, grey seer, and warlord on bonebreaker and fellblade. This game was a little more cagey and was probably one of my most tactical of the weekend. I got good positions and got the grey seer, doomwheels, warplightning cannon, a slave block and almost got the ratogres (they had 2 wounds left on the whole unit). I lost all my chaff and Masters on steeds. He played a really great game and if I would have gotten the ratogres I would have won by about 500 points, but instead it was a draw in my favor by 70 victory points.
Game 5
The hardest comped list at the gt. It was a 6 on the swedish scale and was warriors. He had 2 nurgle princes, 2 nurgle gorebeasts, a unit of nurgle horsemen, 40 nurgle warriros with halberds, a khorne bsb on juggy, with 3 skullcrushers. I knew this was gonna be a rough game. Luckily I had a building in my deployment zone and put my corsairs with all my characters in there. I got some good charges on the warriors with coldones and withces and ground them down, while slowly pulling wounds off both the princes. Eventually all i had was my corsairs in the building and was throwing spells out. turn 6 i got one prince with flock of doom, who had taken 3 wounds earlier, and the other with amber spear, swinging the game my way. In the end all I had was the characters and he had 2 gorebeasts and the crushers with bsb.
Medium win to me
Sorry there isn't more detail but it;s hard to write all the tactical moves and placement. Also it was a weekend ago and my memory is terrible
. I only got to use the assasins for 3 of the games but they were great as deterents for big stuff to charge. Im taking this same list to an event next weekend and it is using full swedish. I apparently have one of the softest lists at the event and being able to get vps before the game even starts is going to be nice. I think this list has a lot of mileage and am really excited to play it for a while. If anyone has any questions on how I used certain units, or how certain units performed, let me know and i'll be happy to let you know
