lots of wwow

interested in Dark Riders / dooomfire models. From US. Shipping looks like it would be too much to make it worth it. if change in shippping, let me know!

My last post was hard to read and understand.

If cannon ball hits 63% and as Phierlihy quotes, I calculate that

32% there will be 0 wounds after three shots.
35% of the time the CoB will be dead (which also could have happened after the first shot!)

Which part? That the Death Hag will likely die? My math says about a 58% chance. Or that it takes 3 cannon balls to destroy a cauldron? My math says 3.2 but I rounded down. Just to be clear, we are agreeing that the CoB is scary, but not the most competitive option because war machines, even war ma...

For anyone reading, Darren has been using a CoB in his battle reports and I think his games represent the model well. Here is his most recent game. m This is incorrect: "The Death Hag would likely die, the cauldron itself would likely live (on average it takes 3 cannon balls to destroy it)."

it joins the Unit as a Character yes but since its not the same Unit Type as the Unit (Cauldron is a Chariot while the WE are Infantry) the Death Hag wont get her Look Out Sir! roll so if they hit the Cauldron with a Cannonball you then randomize wether it hits the Cauldron or the DH and the resolv...

I think of the COB as a Tier 3.5 out of 5 star choice. It's a little bit better at smaller pt levels because it is more likely that your opponent will not have an answer. In response to Phierlihy--I never finish painting my COB model because I didn't think it would be worth it as a main stay of my a...

Yeah, generally I agree.

I playtested the list against Empire, and I really liked it ! Some changes : - Death Hag is made killing biatch with Ogre Blade and Rune of Khaine - Supreme Sorceress only gets Obisidian Amulet for 2+ ward save against magic for warlock bunker - Executioners get once re-roll failed leadership test ...

You will most commonly see the two of those. However I was playing around with points and noticed that Death Hag costs the same as 25 Executioners with full command plus a magical banner. I've since ditched the cauldron and now have an Executioner body-guard which I use similarly to an Empire detac...

I would be interested too if mellis does not come through. I live in the states; I would add more for shipping.

For the choice between the halbred or GW is just a math question on chance to wound. Generally, GW w/o rerolls is better: Chance to wound against: A powered up opposing character with WS>=6, T4, 1+ (wards saves will effect each results the same) GW: .5 * (5/6 +1/6*5/6) * .5 = 24% HB: (.5+.5*.5) * (4...

That is one hell of a paint job and miniature! Absolutely love it. Anointed Beastslayer of Anath Raema, the Savage Huntress M8 WS7 BS7 S6 T6 8W I7 A* LD10 (Monster) Special rules: Terror, Always Strikes First, Murderous Prowess, Hatred (High Elves) Combined profile: The anointed beastslayer is moun...

Welcome to posting at dnet!

My advice is to rethink your heroes and lords.

You've mentioned several of the weakest heroes and there are several lvl 4 and dreadlord options that are very scary!

I think it varies from game to game Sometimes all spread out. Usually two sets of two Sometimes overload one side. Make best effort to keep them apart to avoid panics and easy overruns. I often have them up closer to the 12 inch line to keep good sight lines. I usually also only bring 3. DragonArmy

Have you thought about Death magic? It might combo better than light. I worry that your opponents will feel that they either one the game or lost the game before it began. As another Druchii general has already said, it's worth thinking about all the different leadership tests that an army takes. Sq...

I think the DE Sweedish comp has correctly valued most units, including core. Without any support, corsairs with two attacks a 4+ I find to be more effective, while the other units are more situational. Add dark riders to taste.

Yes, I agree, it would be great for more resources to be offered to the community. Still, what comes to my mind immediately is DRUCHII.net. Having a forum for just dark elves is terrific and this staple is what we really need. Overall though, this is well put: If you can math it, it's too trivial to...

**DANG--the formatting makes this much harder to read. May be able to post in google docs later.*** Greeting! I ran some quick numbers on my chances of doing more wounds than my opponents (remember, sisters have other ways to create combat res greater than my opponent). I wanted to see how my unit w...

Thanks! Good feedback. It's true that I lack high Str. I need to run the numbers to see against when 20 Sisters are more likely to win combat compared to 25 Executioners against units that the rest of my army would struggle against. That is the key question. It's not ideal, but certain death stars f...

Greetings! I am in process of testing and painting new units for a 2000pt army. Most of my armies are shooty, however, this army is different in that I am taking the COB instead of a character bus. I, however, am stuck--I want to take just under 400 points of another DE unit. The other points are no...

I really appreciate you taking the time to post your lists. Instead of commenting on your list, this is the list I decided to run that is similar to yours. Notice that: - I didn't make the Master a BSB because he may be a redirector - Likewise the level 2 mage is welcome to redirect. I wanted to scr...

Allright more noodlehammering.... So I went back to my previous tournies thoughts and realized my magic phase only involved casting Soulblight from the Warlocks mostly. I always forgot my super frenzy spell and my Life SS really only got one Dwellers off and it didn't impact the game much. Don't ge...

Waywatchers will be included as long as this high armor meta continues. Shades are great. As far as shooting, waywatchers can do everything shades can do with the advantage of longer range. However, WW stronger attack is the ignore armor. Now if you are a shooty WE player, lowering toughness through...

Would consider getting rid of crossbows on the large bus of DR.
