Also worth considering that Soulrender is actually better than Crimson death if you are going to join a unit with the ASF banner.
Bolt throwers either 2 or none. A lone bolt thrower never really seemed to cut it in my experience.

I am curious, how do you do with bigger BG blocks against lists that run 2 or more stone throwers? Does your lists pack a lot of warmachine hunters? I've been running a unit of 14 lately in 2x7 formation, but found out that after a few casualties I can't really send them in combat without it becomin...

Well I think it makes a big difference to be better on the charge. Considering the facts that you want to be the charger in order to maximize possible augment or hex spells, and as elf you still want to dictate when and where to fight. That said my list will still run 2 spear blocks and only 1 corsa...

I'm planning to run 18 corsairs 6x3 with sea serpent banner. My list also runs lvl 4 mage with lore of shadows. I think any close combat unit with decent amount of attacks works well together with withering or occams mindrazor. I could take witches too, but I kinda like the 4+ save against non-melee.

I was running one this evening against woodies with 3 Glade guard units. Had her equipped with pendant for ward save. I think she's somewhat reasonably protected if you can keep her in heavy cover against small strength missiles. High STR shots are stopped by the ward. I also had an agressive approa...

Do you think a unit of 10 CoK in 2 ranks could be viable? I have been thinking of ways to play my knights in this new edition since I just love the models. a unit of 10 would come around 300+ pts with Full command. I just feel a unit of 5-6 wont cut it anymore against all those massive units we will...

I'm definately in the shadow camp. I just feel the lore has great synergi with our low str, high ini troops. As someone already mentioned, reducing their T and then following up with a salvo from our crossbows can be devastating One thing I was wondering, if anyone has come up with any uses for the ...

Last night I played my chaos against lizards and we too had a huge issue with the re-rolls. Now what I'd like to know is that, is there somewhere a clear official ruling that rerolls happen before anything? In my gaming group its not easy to prove anything if my only argument is that someone said so...

Charge ruling; (might be obvious...)
I'm sorry if this is a very newbie question. I tried Search (didn't even find anything related to the word I was searching for) and reading through a bit further back on this forum (15+pages.), but didn't see anything related. If i've become blind and missed it I'm sorry for wasting your time. on pa...

What comes to blackguard I really dont see much use for a musician. First of all, if the BG for some reason are fleeing things have probably gone very wrong already and the musician wont save you. Secondly, I seldom find myself in a situation where I need that musician to break ties. BG either are a...

Probably would reduce the amount of whine if hydra lost its hatred.

Ïf she is sitting in a unit of infantry, and in front of it is something like lord on dragon, you often has no other choice. This is exactly the reason why I never field a lvl4 on foot. Keep her mobile and avoid combat. If you really want your spellcasters in close combat maybe you should convert t...

Most of my wins against my WE friend I have gained by killing what units I can without overextending (magic is good for this), and claiming table quarters in the end. I've found it very hard to massacre a good wood elf player and running wildly to the other end of the table usually gets most my unit...

Well generally when playing against gunlines, you just have to accept taking some casualties before your army reaches the other side of the table. It might be the hydra, black guard, cold one knights etc. I wouldn't leave the hydra home just because it might get killed on the field of battle. The hy...
