Grimbold Blackhammer:

I think a single #6 spell is going to ruin your day. I think you need more units to spread those points out a little bit.

Da Crusha:

this is a very standard list.

in 8th ed. many spells could decimate an army with a single casting.

lukealexandermorton:

Fireborn are weak just due to the fact they crumble by turn 6 you will have given your opponent 350 points. It’s the 2 wounds each that does it :(. Kaadi is good agaist noobs to the game but experienced players will always make this model redundant. So easy to counter and redirect and with dragonhelm and dragon bane gem. This item will ruin your day. Their more options in rare. If you want some combat go for a bale torus and stubborn flying bsb. Don’t under estimate hobgoblins you could fill core up in hobos to hold your line with steadfast ld 10. Make centors bigger . Smash flanks with them and tourus flying bsb can also hold or even break low str infantry and cavalry . Also their for the bsb roll for the hobo goblins steadfast .

lukealexandermorton:

Fireborn * 330 sorry !:slight_smile:

lukealexandermorton:

I know alot of people on here don’t rate dreadquake motor but with potential of 7 wounds and causes dangerous terrain . Bare in mind the the 7 wounds with 2 up look out sir for you daemonsmiths. Just makes you feel safer when facing comet !

So does a 15pt Scroll of Shielding ;)

lukealexandermorton:

That only for magic and its only 4 up ward :frowning:

BABIS:

never go out without the Manburner, because in a unit of six when you loose the first fireborn you loose the look out sir and then you can choose where to allocate the wounds caused by the burning bright rule as they were caused by shooting attacks (example, if you suffer 2 wounds you can choose to not remove an entire fireborn but to allocate 1 wound to a fireborn and 1 to the champion )

Grimbold Blackhammer:

Personally I think putting additional stuff on my Khan is a waste. I’d reduce him to just a wolf, drop 5 dwarfs, and pick up another unit of hobgoblins.
