Karma
It's quite true what they say about Karma. In a game I had against Ogres this weekend, I had Morathi and a lvl 2 sorceress on life. I rolled up and took Dwellers, Purple Sun and Pit of Shades. After two bad magic rolls of 3 and 4, his Slaughter master ate the hellheart rolled high so I had to take a...

Re: 2400pt army list
Hmm, good question about Morathi, I was hoping threatening the ranged units and movement could help but my practice game saw her take a cannonball to the face Turn 1 (they got first turn). We didn't play with much terrain so nothing to hide behind. She rolled up Mindrazor, which could be deadly with...

2400pt army list
For my upcoming tournament I have been playing round with a list, making changes here and there etc... which has started to do my head in a bit. So I scrapped it, and just put a few things in which weren't really like my other list and am tempted to just go with it. I'll list it here and see what yo...

El Flying Assassino
I've got a tournament coming up where I am trying to create a fun but quite competitive list. I haven't used an assassin for a while and have recently bought the Shadowblade model so want to use one, so it got me thinking about novel assassin builds. I thought of the BDE on, but then I thought what ...

Transformation of Khadon
As I'll be taking Lore of Beasts, I just want to check, if my Sorceress does get Transformation off and decides to become a Hydra, I would the be using the Hydra rules out of the 8th Ed BRB (our old Hydra). This is because a) That's the Hydra that is in the BRB b) Our new Hydra is called a War Hydra...

Re: Competitive lists without witches.
I've used corsairs before and they were good, including an epic 'trap' I set where they got charged on three side by units with good armour, I then IF Mindrazor on them, it was great. The Sorceress could always sit with the RHB corsairs, they've got a good save so could be a good bunker, and I'm sur...

Re: Nagash and Glotkin Softback

They didn't, but the guy did confirm that it is being re-printed in softback, available to pre-order this evening. He did...

I'm trying to put together a new list, and have a couple of things I'd like some advice on. 1. Lvl 4 Life bunker. I was planning to run a level 4 SSorceress with life in a bunker behind two big units (one dreadspears and one exes). She will have a sac dag. Do I make the bunker 16 bleakswords, or 12 ...

Black Amulet : An idea so daft it has to work.
Drawing up the blueprints for my new list, I had an idea, one that seems to spell disaster but maybe could work. I will have 20 BG FC (I still have really good success with them) with the Razor Standard. I am also going to have a lvl 4 SS on Dark magic, and heres where my brain over thinks things. I...

Re: 2400pt Tounament list (swedish Comp.)
Thanks for the replies. The Hydra fiery breath would have put me over the 7 score on the swedish score unfortunatley. The sorceress is Lvl 4. I think I didn't word it correctly Poisonblade, the comp is a normal 0-20 for each game without swedish points taken into account in the scoring, but each arm...

2400pt Tounament list (swedish Comp.)
After dar too much deliberating and changing I have come up with my tournament list for a local 2400 tournament I'm going to in February. I have 2 or 3 practice games until then, so any ideas would be appreciated as I can try them out in the other games. LORD S Sorceress, Dispell Scroll, 4++ talisma...

Re: Death Night is coming - How will YOU survive?
Surviving Death Night should be easy for me. As a Black Guard my skills with any melee weapon will outshine any number of Witch Elves that should find their way to me, no matter how great their frenzy. I shall be with my unit, and 20 of us could easily defend ourselves against a ragged throng of Kha...

Re: Dark Elven Sea Raider Theme
I've been thinking up a raider themed fluff list too, just doing the fluffy story at the moment. I've loved playing with Warlocks at the moment, so thought about how I could include them and stick to some fluff. My idea was that they need souls to live on and it says (I think) that the more pure the...

CoB and hordes
I've scanned the forum and also internet and can not get a firm answer on this. If I had a CoB in a unit of WEs (or any inf), that I wanted a horde, would I then need 7 WEs in each rank to make the horde (so three ranks would attack). I take it then I need 21 WEs for a unit 10 front 3 deep, and woul...

Re: The Hydra Blade - Do we love it or hate it
I think if I took it, I'd only take it for HKB, in which case I'd be wanting to fail the Ld tests. Seeing as you can't hex yourself, it would be too much of a risk running up to a Monster etc... and then passing and during 3 puny attacks at the creature rather than taking the chance to HKB it.

Re: A few rules questions
As everyone has said, but if you need proof for the 'gamers' who only obey the rules as written. The BRB FAQ 1.4

Leadership tests? (p10)
A: Yes.

Overlooked Rules
I'm not sure if this thread would be good or not, but last night I had a game, and I thought I'd use the RBT with a single shot. For some reason I'd always thought that a single shot was St.5 Armour Piercing ( I knew the d3 wounds / rank piercing rule), so the few times I took an RBT with the 7th ed...

Re: whats your opinion on The Black Guard
I'll carry on taking some for a while probably. They seems good for tournament lists, as with the right buffing they could do the job against most armies, as opposed to the more 'specialist' troops.
