Baggronor:

I would put the IG into 2 units. I’m looking at 2x30-35. I think fewer, larger blocks make better use of the stubborn characters and will be harder to get points off.

At 3k, I’m planning to try 2x6 Fireborn and a support unit of 3 BCs.

Galladorn:

I just don’t see Drazhoath the Ashen doing 570 points of damage in a game, or even surviving the battle. Fluffwise I completely understand the reason for using him. He has a great story, and the model is beautiful, but I think that a level 4 will save you at least 250 points to put into either more Bull Centaurs or K’daii.

deadmeat30:

I full agree, He wouldnt gain his points back really, neither will the IG, but there stil taken ;). If i had a Level 4, ild still want him on a bale taurus. So for the extra points, Drazhoth is worth it.

to be fair, i dont think the K’daii are that great. 2 wounds and have to take tests or lose D3.

I have an iron daemon, but cant see much place for it on the battle field.

deadmeat30:

Bit of a change to the IG units, and added another castellan for more stubborn goodness.

"Drazhoath the Ashen 570"

Win. I plan on doing up a Drazhoath list myself.

I like your army a fair bit. Has a good mix of things.

So if you add the stubborn Castellan to a unit it transfers the stubborn to them?

With regards to your second list…I do think you’ll miss the Great Weapon IG as losing them loses you a big heavy hitting unit.

klemanius:

Yeah stubborn characters make their units stubborn as well.

deadmeat30:

Now do i drop my hellcannon for a dreadquake mortar? hmmm…

nilbog:

Now do i drop my hellcannon for a dreadquake mortar? hmmm....

deadmeat30
No, no, no. Definitely not. Don't do it.

deadmeat30:

Why not? they dont look bad, specially with hellbound and an extra orge. toughness 8 10 wounds?

Baggronor:

Now do i drop my hellcannon for a dreadquake mortar? hmmm....
Does a Dreadquake Mortar beat the crap out of war machine hunting units? ;) Hellcannon is a monster and still a str10 stone thrower as well.

deadmeat30:

Yes true, but surely with 2 slave ogres and the crew, it can hold off most fast cav and skirmishers? And its the pie plate not the small template.

deadmeat30:

And also, reading the rules, the attackers can only assault with 6 men. in the brb, pretty sure that’s what I read.

Groznit Goregut:

DQM is great vs hordes and elite units, too. I don’t understand the hate for it.

Wait…it uses the. If or small template?

deadmeat30:

Big template 5 inch.

deadmeat30:

I’m sure it uses the bigger one? Not got the book with me…

Baggronor:

Small template. If it was the big pieplate, it would be in every list… :wink:

deadmeat30:

Ah now that’s a bugger.
