Trying to create an effective magic list 2k

Post by Almundis »

I have been trying various ways of making magic heavy lists, but they always seem to come up short, usually due to my throwing waaay too many points into heroes, but I can't seem to find a way to trim the fat from the sorceresses, so I have decided to go for mainly cheap infantry (plus a few shiny toys...). Here is the list as it stands now

Supreme sorc 1 – 225 – 365
+35 lvl 4
+50 D. Pegasus
+55 Black staff

Sorc – 150 – 175
Level 2
Sacrificial dagger
Tome of furion

Sorceress – 2 – 100 - 165
Level 2
Life Taker

705
Core
5 x Dark riders w/ RxB - 110
5 x Dark riders w/ RxB - 110
15 x Spearmen w/ Sh, FC – 125
10 x RxBmen – 100
10 x RxBmen – 100
5 x Harpies – 55
5 x Harpies - 55
Special
5 x Shades w/ GW – 90
5 x Shades w/ GW – 90
Rare
Hydra – 175
2 x RBT – 200

1915

This leaves me with 85 pts to play with. Part of me wants to add a familiar to the SS, but this would make her an even more massive points sink. This would allow her to hide behind terrain an blast away, but i could just as easily protect her by keeping the DR an Harpies nearby. Alternatively I could drop the Pegasus which would give me enough points for an extra unit, maybe even a naked unit of CoK.

I know I lack any real anvils but this is a bit more of a gunline with a few harrassing units. I lack the models for any more harpies,DR, Rxb or shades

Beware, you can't take more than one arcane item per sorceress:
Familiar => drop the Black Staff.
Sacc Dagg => can't take the Tome.

The rest of the list makes the army a good old magic/shooty list.
