[Archive] 2400 all comers list

wizuriel:

I’m mainly just posting this so I know where to find it later, but some comments/criticism would be appreciated. Pretty much trying to make an all comers list (main people I know that play warhammer play the boring dwarves, tomb kings, wood elves and lizard men). This is what I’m playing around with

Lord (380)

Sorcerer Prophet: Lvl 4, Talisman of Preservation, crown of command = 380

Heroes (437)

Infernal Castellan: BSB, shield, Mask of the furnace = 197

Daemonsmith Sorcerer: chalice = 145 [hell cannon]

Daemonsmith Sorcerer: 95

A few things I would consider with that list:

Your two IG units are stubborn but only 20 models each may be a bit low. By the time they get to combat they could be down to half strength from magic and artilary.

You could cut a daemon smith out and just use one for both. Just hope you don’t need two rerolls in one turn. It just seems a bit much spending 240 points just for rerolls and a little magic.

Against wood elves you should win flaming>flammable.

Not sure against the other armies tbh but a pretty solid list i think. Maybe drop daemon smith and shields on BC for more IG.

Grimbold Blackhammer:

Hellcannons are monsters, not war machines. No rerolls for them =(

I’d ditch a sorcerer and either turn him into either a Tar’ruk (allowing you to ditch one bull centaur) or more Infernal Guard/Hobbos. Three wizards at 2400 points is a lot.

Not sure you’ll need the Crown of Command on your Sorcerer-Prophet. Might make room for a Dispel Scroll in there instead.

Good catch with the hellcannon :frowning:

Lord (380)
Sorcerer Prophet: Lvl 4 (lore of Hashut), Talisman of Preservation, crown of command = 380

Heroes (342)
Infernal Castellan: BSB, shield, Mask of the furnace = 197
Daemonsmith Sorcerer: lvl 1 (fire), chalice = 145  

Core (754)
23 infernal guard: GW, FC = 377
23 infernal guard: GW, FC = 377

Special (380)
4 bullcentaurs: GW + standard + banner of swiftness + Champ = 235
1 magma cannon = 145

Rare (530)
K’daai Destroyer = 325
Hellcannon = 205

total = 2386 / 2400

I think 4 more IG per unit will make a good difference to their survivability. It’s another turn of spell or war machine fire. The Deathshrieker is also a good option.
20 hob gobs is probably too small in 2500 and the BCs don’t need two more to do their job.

Grimbold Blackhammer:

FAQ just came out and the Deamonsmith now DOES effect a Hellcannon. Woohoo!
