Crone hellebron
the crone has a niffy rule, that she can accompany a CoB. since she cannot buy one herself, that should mean (and did so in 7th) that she could join another DH with a CoB. Now, i like crone hellebron a lot, for the WE as core rule, but with the step up rule, i doubt i want to see her in a real comba...

well, i like the cob BSB to fly with steed of shadows indeed. a warmachine is 1 model (crew is woundmarkers only) and a deathhag is a char, so its a fine target for steed of shadows (does not need to be an infantry anymore, just a character model). I also like to fly it smack in the middle to hold s...

VC has been nerfed a little due to 2 things they only have ghouls as usefull, counting core choices (and then 25% is a lot) single dice spell spamming is not really smart, since a 1 or 2 is a fail anytime, and each time ye fail that wizzy cannot cast that phase. but the coach took a big step up inde...

in general, i bring 100 and up spearelves, in 3 units (30, 30, 40+) with gleaming pennant, cold blooded banner and st of discipline, so they all have a very good chance to hold anything. add in a corsair unit of 15 or so and 15 harpies Bs shooting does not do it for me in this edition, to big units,...

Metal default spell power is not so much in the ignoring AS saves part, but in making toughness irrelevant at all, the easiest way to kill T5/ T6 medium armoured monsters there is (dragon, hydra, stegadon, chariots), and the golden hounds make a good job on singling out the chars in there as well, w...

Metal is not about the signature spell at all, thou its still not bad at all as it is. remeber you will also wound a dragon on a 3+ with metal signature spell for example (find any other spell that will do that). metal is about buffs (aiban and glittering robe) and the nr 6 (a mass destruction that ...

no upgrades on them, just use 6 naked witches instead. and dont necessary deploy them 6 wide as well, they do not lose out much on 3x2 (ok, 6 Attacks) but will not be a handicap in deployment or manouvring then. just deploy them as you have the space for them (3x2, 4/2, 5/1. 6/0, whatever. see them ...

one thing of note i am missing here: Morathi has Ld 10, so ye combine a lvl 4 wizzard with a great general in one go. Morathi was a solid choice before, and is a lot better one now, not just due to the magic changes, but also because she is a loremaster dark lore and as such does not prevent a secon...

Metal for me (and i am the first for it) why metal? metal has 2 buffs, buffs are ALWAYS good (while hexes are situational, and leave the opponent the chance to dispell or otherwise migitate the effect) and metal has the one all comers mass destrution spell we can call on (not needing a combi to lowe...

as for steed of shadows, it is NOT anymore a US 1 model that can fly, so chariots, dragons with double move, even a cob with flying, makes it very nice to have. smoke and mirrors can definetly chance a battle, just tailor the list to use it thou, since ye need to have likewise types of units to swap...

more wizzards = less risk on losing the fase on a missed spell. especially for VC this is still important, 1 dice spamming is fine with lots of wizzards, and not something ye do with just one or 2 of them. more wizzards = more arcane items that add PD as well. That said, i think its not the number o...

I feel shooting is not khainite, which is up your face with daggers and stuff I do think corsairs fill the fluff nicely, expescially if ye tool them up as apprentice witch elves, thye are alos melee orientated maniacs after all. a big no would be any shooting and cold ones (knights or chariots) and ...

Fire lore is not bad, it just lacks the flashy spells, but once ppl will go back to more units instead of the few big hordes they use now, ppl will return to fire for the magic missiles that are excellent to take out harpies, shades and similar small units that can mess up your plans. Me, i dont lik...

the chance of a lone peg BSB to lose a combat is big enough. we are not the only ones that can make nearly unkillable chars, all he needs is to be challenged by someone elses unkillable char, both make no wounds and then you lose out on ranks etc. with make way rule, there is nothing to prevent enem...

Flanking is not dead at all, however, the flankers are different to get flanks you use either characters (US is of no importance to get flank bonus to CR, and stepping up only works to the front) or small frontage units so they can get there, either CoC or my preffered 3x2 deployed WE/ BG (trading s...

While it does not matter if you can charge or not on a 1 on 1 unit combat, it is still VERY important if you want to combine 3 units to gangbang on one, especially if one of those units is a chariot or cavalry, or if the opponent has units like that near/ the ones that charge. The + 1 CR is moot, bu...
