warlord+despot go inside immortal unit.

what ya think, could i beat up a couple of dwarfs with this?

nitroglysarine:

is it a 2000 pt army or a 2500pt army because you say both

Thommy H:

Not sure about the Banner of Swiftness on the Immortals - do you want them charging anyway? Remember they don’t get Indomitable Defence if they move. Any particular reason for running so many small Slave units too? I assume there must be a plan for them, because it seems such an unusual set up.

Also, no magic at all?

banner of swiftness because warfs don't move that much, do they?
i will be the one that will have to charge him.
and such small slave units are my chose because they will be cannonfodder to defend my more precious units.
also no magic because dwarfs won't have anything with magic, and a good defend against it, so i'd or all the way with magic, or not.(learned from experience)

nitroglysarine
oops...
it's 2000pts.

Thommy H:

Oh sorry, I didn’t realise you were playing against Dwarfs. Yeah, that makes sense then, but I’d probably use the things in the list that Dwarfs don’t get rather than try to fight rock with rock. Like, go for Gorduz and a load of Wolf Riders, and maybe Hothgar so you can take cheap Daemonic Engines as Special, then load up on Bull Centaurs for Rare. That way you get an army that’s fast and dangerous to run circles around those gunlines.

Obviously that may not fit the figures you have available though…

sounds like a good idea to me, ecxept the fact that i don't use special caracters in my forces...don't know why, i just don't.
but i don't have any minis jet finished anyway, i like to make a list first, and after a coulpe of games change it.

thanks:hat off
