Been lurking around for a few weeks and BAM got some Infernal Guard for Christmas. Now I obviously need to make an army here in between work and finishing other armies. With that said, here’s my plan for a 2k list. I think I’m going to give converting a shot to make most of the infantry. Its something I’ve been wanting to do for awhile, and with the insane cost of 10dudes, kind of required as well.
This looks kind of fun, however, I think its maybe lacking direction, or perhaps more points (for warmachines) would make it work better?
Sorcerer Prophet
+Level 4, Mask of Furnace, Dawnstone, Blood of Hashut
Castellan
+BSB, Charmed Shield, Ironcurse Icon, Talisman of Endurance, Black Hammer of Hashut
Daemonsmith Prophet
+Nice Hat
Infernal Guard x25
+FC
Infernal Guard x30
+Blunderbusses, FC
Dreadquake Mortar
+Slave Ogre
+Hellbound
Magma Cannon
That’s it! I really like the idea of making units have to make tough decisions about whether they want to move or not. I want some nasty shooting but I suppose I’m also worried about steering too close to mean gunline and not wanting anyone to play with me. T_T Which actually may be where I ended up with the blunderbusses!
Any thoughts on whether this list would be too cruel, or unfocused or anything? Might try to get a proxy game in and see how it works, but my stable of regular players is like none.
if it was me id get rid of the 25 infernal and 2 blunders then add a unit of 30 hobos with bows and a ds rocket may be if points allow add another magma cannon and change the Dreadquake Mortar for a hell cannon but thats just me
Thanks for responding! I see whatcha mean, that would free up a lot of points but I’m kind of giddy to use me some dwarven infantry! Those blunderbussiers are expensive though, so I was contemplating dropping them for some hobgoblins but thought against it, looking at their rules they seem like they’d blastinate something but good!
2k seems pretty darn tight to get anything shiny in there!
