The Gib:
So here is my second attempt at a 2500 point list. I believe this one is more well rounded. Has and unit for I believe any situation. Below is the list of what I have as well as a small diagram of roughly how I would deploy it, this can obviously change based on situations.
Sorcerer-Prophet �?" LVL 4, Chalice of Blood and Darkness, Crown of Command 350
Daemonsmith �?" LVL 2 130
Daemonsmith �?" LVL 1 95
Infernal Castellan �?" BSB, Banner of Slavery 165
Hobgoblin Khan �?" Giant Wolf, Enchanted Shield, Spear, Light Armor, Potion of Strength, Luckstone 88
Hobgoblin Khan �?" Giant Wolf, Spear, Light Armor, Shield of Ptolos 83
30 Infernal Guard �?" Musician 370
30 Infernal Guard �?" Musician 370
36 Hobgoblin Cutthroats �?" Musician, Additional Hand Weapon 166
2 Deathshrieker Launcher �?" 200
2 Magma Cannons �?" Hellbound 340
5 Hobgoblin Wolf Raiders �?" Spears, Musician 70
5 Hobgoblin Wolf Raiders �?" Spears, Musician 70
Setup:
Infernal Guard Infernal Guard Hobgoblin Wolf Wolf
w/ Sorcerer- w/BSB Cutthroats Raider Raider
Prophet w/Khan w/Khan
Magma Daemon- Magma
Cannon Smith Cannon
Deathshrieker Daemon- Deathshrieker
Launcher Smith Launcher
My plan is pretty obvious. Blast away with the warmachines and try to get units down to a minimum prior to hand to hand. All units are stubborn or immune to psychology or big enough so I will not have to worry about anyone running. The only other thing I am considering is doing putting the two wolf raider units side by side on the flank, as in the diagram, but actually run the Khan behind them for protection. I tried to build the list in order to be able to take on any unit type in the opposing army. Below is what I came up with.
Characters �?" Warmachines, Magic
Horde units �?" Warmachines, Magic, large core units
Small strong units �?" Magma Cannon, Magic
Magic �?" Chalice of Blood and Darkness, debating if I should take a dispel scroll
Warmachines �?" Deathshrieker Launcher, Wolf Raiders, Khan
Monsters �?" Magic, Warmachines, Wolf Raiders, Khan
Frenzied Units �?" At full strength use wolf raiders to pull them away.
The only area I am not ready for are units with low leadership. Apart from killing them off I have no way to force tests, which I am okay with considering the firepower. Let me know what you think and any advice would be most helpful.
