I guess your master with the Nullstones are tagging along with the BG's?? I think your magic defense might be a bit too low, but a test game or two vs. high elves might point you in the right direction! As for the rest: It looks good, but won't you miss the shades? Also in order for your Assassin to...

If it is due to Touch of Death then he has Killing blow on ranged attacks as well as melee, but if it due to a CoB then no. Killingblow only ever applie to ranged attacks if it is specificly mentioned in the description in the item/rule that grants killinblow, thus, we can never have ranged killinb...

He rips wraith units another one.
While Enchanted Shield can only tarpit them.

That was my reasoning as well, but then I thought it might just be my current metagaming that had made me paranoid!!

Sweet

BIGGEST problem seems to your lack of punch! You've added great characters, but not really any units for them - You will probably be somewhat sorry if you ever come across a magic heavy army ... is it 1000pts?

I use a different version of the BSB in my lists as my composition is different to Benji. Mine is: BSB, dark steed, ha, sdc, shield, pendant and soulrender. I like to use him as a fighter as I'm using the COB in most of my lists nowadays. For me, this combo works well. The magic weapon only gives +...

Following the discussion in quite a few threads I thought I'd get it out in the open: Which BSB build is the superior? Just to enlighten the few who haven't followed the ongoing discussion, this is a question following in the footsteps of Q's which arose during a Dalamar, D.A., et.al. thread on GT-a...

Definitely better - starts looking much like my own army

With regards to the BSB, don't know if you followed the ongoing rant about the nigh invincible BSB? The link to one of the discussions is here: http://www.druchii.net/viewtopic.php?t=59133 ... Otherwise your list look pretty decent. Have a look at my current plans for 2250+ armies, that'll might ser...

A usually go for Scorched brown mixeed with purple ink for base colouring, then I pick out details using a mix of base colour:Rotting Flesh (1:1), shade down with watered down Scorched Bwrown and redo details with base colour:rotting flesh (1:1).

Hey - congrats What a nice surprise for XMas.

I think it was under the influence of my current metagame, that I eventually went for the SoM combo - because of the VC and their annoying wraiths - would at least give this guy a chance to take them on ...

It was sword of might but do you think it is better with Enchanted shield and Lance. i will try it. The Curry in a dress BSB, oh thats your facebook photo. cheers rob I had a pint and a long hard think about which combo is preferable: Enchanted shield+Pendant+Lance or Pendant+Sword of Might and in ...

I'm guessing it was a typo. That BsB is frickin' awesome. I started working on mine. [OT]: As I've said before - that BSB might have been in the market for a long time, I think I remember something like it turning up at a couple of tournies, but I just found out about his AWESOMENESS now!! And OMG ...

Red washes are actually a great way of tying green and greyish colours together - not too much though ... just a bit of red into the recesses and it'll be fine (might be hard to explain properly - I'm doing mine this way).

Sarcon wrote:Banner of murder probably

I thought of that as well initially, but it's a crappy banner AND the BSB can't have that and the Pendant (because he can't have magic banner + items). So that was why I thought of SoM - instead of BoM??! Might just be me...

Like SkaerKrow and Rugi I'm also a bit surprised that you'd risk the RoH without the ASF Banner - even the psychological value of "he might have it - or of course the BG's has the ASF banner" isn't worth quite as much, as them actually having it!Add the banner and your BG's are killers!

Marauder Mitch2 wrote:The BSB combo is Dark Steed, Pendant, BoM, HA, SDC, Shield

BoM?? What's that: Sword of Might??

A yes ... Merry XMas. I for my part bought myself a good deal of DE's as an early XMas present (And to have models for the Tale of X Members ).

With an army like this you really need to figure out how you can include a CoB - it will be it's weight worth in gold! I also consider a Hydra a must have!

5 Executioners are as, The Skaerkrow already pointed out, a really odd number! Either go 7 or 14.

First of all - the dragon is exceptionel: And hatred on mounts is GREAT! Onto the list itself: I recognize the general idea of the army, but I'm not really sure if it is the best of strategies. I've never been a great fan of CoK's and I've always been opposed to the idea of bringing 2 units: So unre...

I'd get rid of the Command Groups on both RxB units. Also try and increase Shades size to 7.
I'm not really sure about your Sorceress - she looks like somewhat in between - IMO you should go caddy style with her.
I also think you should run your Cold Ones naked - and maybe add a 6th CoK.

I tried a modified version of List A today; really not that much jiggling around - replaced a Hydra for 2 Reapers (the points where found by removing a unit of Harpies, but added more models to the BG's: They are now at a respectable 18 models!!). It really is a versatile army - speed isn't that muc...

I would go with the first list, the lord with manticore can go hero hunting with all those KB strikes. though I'm a bit suspect about the biting blade (see if you can instead squeeze a null talisman instead somehow) but I like it otherwise. I also prefer the Manti-list (if not for anything else, th...
