Wifstrand:

Let’s have at those Dark Elves please!

Time of Madness:

The list is illegal.

Looks like a 2000pt army and you’ve spent nearly 600pts on heroes. You can only spend 500pts max when playing 2000pt games.

ChungEssence:

Keep the flanks of the Blunders protected so you can funnel into a field of fire.

Let us know how it goes

togo:

OK the game against the DE.

His list was (as far as I can remember):

Lvl 4 Mage

Death Hag

Master on Pegasus with the miscast ring

40 Warriors with Spear

5 Dark Riders

5 Dark Riders

15 Black Guard

Chariot

Chariot

10 executioners

10 executioners

5 Shades

20 Witch Elves

5 Harpies

So I learned a lot in this game.I got beaten up hard because I made some stupid mistakes and I had 4(!) Miscasts with the Prophet and 2 with the Deamonsmith.

The Destroyer went through one chariot,one dark riders and ate half of the warriors.Then he crumbled in the CC.I killed half of my Blunders with my miscasts and my Hellcannon went crazy in the first 2 rounds.

The small block of warriors stood their ground for 2 rounds against the witches and a chariot.The Khans didn´t do anything at all because one was shot death and with the other one I was too dumb to do the right redirect at the right moment.Also the magma and my shrieker couldn´t kill much.I rolled such a crap.Ended 19:1 for him.

Pros:

-The stubborn warriors are great to stop units

Cons:

-I rolled worse than a blind one legged person

-The chalice of blood and darkness is a nice toy but not worth it 50 points

-I must learn how to use the khans to my benefit

-The destroyer was too far away and didn´t get his points

-The hellcannon ran faster than usain bolt

Next week is a little tournament.Will see how I deal with different armies.

Maybe I can play a little testgame before that.

Till then

ryanamandaanna:

having two legs definitely makes a difference in dice rolling. :wink:

So today I had 2 warm up matches for the tournament at sunday.Because of this we played nice lame games.Just how I like them most!

I went against Ogres and Highelves at 2500 Points.The Ogre player (not the one I played against earlier)is a good player and this being my 3rd game in this edition and with this army he told me what I did wrong(of course after I did it)

Here is his list:

Slaughtermaster(Greedy Fist)

Bruiser BSB

40 Gnoblars

6 Ironguts(I think)

6 Ogres

8 Leadbelchers

4 Mournfangs (Dragonhide Banner)

2 Sabretusks

Ironblaster

Thundertusk

My Destroyer tried to kill the normal ogres and the ironblaster but failed its frenzy test so it ran into the gnoblars and killed 20 of them but I failed 2 T-tests and I lost one wound due shooting from the leadbelchers so it did not do anything at all.On the left flank I tried to hold the flank against the mournfangs with my hellcannon and tried some nasty stuff with my khan,but that went not how I thought.So my 30 blunders got charged from his ironguts with his heros in it.I did well against them until the Mournfangs went to my flank.I moved the other IG wrong and he kept me from charging the ironguts with his sabretusks and with my lack of intelligence because I reformed with my Destroyer too far so the Ig had no where to go.

I lost the game a devastating 20:0 for him.

In my second game I ran against Highelves:

Lvl 4 Archmage

Noble BSB

11 Archers

50 Spear Elves

24 Swordmasters

24 Swordmasters

Lion Chariot

28 White Lions

Great Eagle

Great Eagle

First round I moved agressivly forward.The whole game I had a hard time with his mage and the shadow lore.He set up my Destroyer on one flank with one great eagle so I would overrun and he set up a trap with the chariot,one troop of swordmasters and the white lions.I shot away his other unit swordmasters and killed a lot of white lions.And of course my hellcannon killed himself in my second turn.The 50 spear elves charged my blunders and lost the fight after 2 rounds.The destroyer was smoked (of course) but I catched the swordmasters with my other IG and ash stormed the lions.My khan kept the spear elves from charging again so I could shoot them down.After some misplacing I got his 11 archers and his mage killed.Meanwhile he killed my deamonsmith and a magmacannon with his other eagle.After all it was a 14:6 for me.Quite happy with this.

Here is my updated list.I will play it at the tournament too.

1 Sorcerer-Prophet @ 420.0 Pts

General; Lore of Hashut; Magic Level 4; Blood of Hashut; Darkforged

Weapon; Blackshard Armour

Enchanted Shield [5.0]

ChungEssence:

Thanks for the reports.

"The 50 spear elves charged my blunders and lost the fight after 2 rounds."

How many did you kill with the stand/shoot roughly if you can remember?

cheers

Well I rolled a 1 for the multiple shots so only 20 shots(had them in 3 ranks,against ogres I played them 2 ranks with 15 each)
I rolled pretty much average at the hits so 10 hits and with the reroll for the wounds I forced 9 AS.So when you roll high enough its worth the points.

togo:

Sooooo the tournament today was nice.Of course I showed up late,but they hadn´t paired yet so I was good to go.

My first match was against Deamons of Chaos.Here is his list:

Bloodthirster (S10 ,Armour of Khorne)

Herold of Khorne

Herold of Khorne

Herold of Nurgle BSB (Great Standard of Sundering)

Herold of Tzeentch (Master of Sorcery)

20 Bloodletters

10 Horrors

25 Plaguebearers

6 Fiends

1 Fiend

5 Furies

5 Furies

5 Flamer

Although it was my first game versus deamons and my 5th fantasy game this edition it went well.The fiends and the thirster came on one flank and killed the 21 IG.Meanwhile the blunders nearly killed the blootletters (1 standing at the last turn) and were charged after that by the fiends and the thirster.I used the khans to pin the single fiend.Then my prophet let out a miscast and killed 10 of his own unit(AGAIN!).The destroyer killed one furie unit and the single fiend.Because I saved the last wardsave he didn´t get my prophet and the castellan.He used the other furies to kill the shrieker and the magma.So i got half of the bloodletters,both herolds of khorne,furies and a fiend.He got both units IG,the khans,deathshrieker and the magma.So a 15:5 for him.

The next game was against Tombkings.Here is his list:

Highpriest

Prince

20 Archers

5 Chariots

30 warriors(priest here)

30 Tomb guard (prince)

Tomb scorpion

3 Ushabti

Necrolith colossus

Skull catapult

Ok his list was not very good so it should be easy.The game was very fast(we only played 3 rounds).I shot with my machines and the ash storm the chariots to only 2 (later they charged the small IG´s and died)

The destroyer ate his necrolith and the ushabtis.The khans were shot by the archers.I ash stormed his tomb guard and shot 2 times a big salve from the blunders in there.Then he had a miscast and blowed up his highpriest and a few warriors.After that the shrieker and the hellcannon blew them up,too.After that my destroyer stand in the rear from the tomb guards and small IG in the front ready to charge ,but he gave the game to me so a 20:0.I only lost 2 khans and 6 IG.

Last game was against the ogre player I played wednesday.His list:

Slaughtermaster(Greedy Fist)

Bruiser BSB

40 Gnoblars

6 Ironguts(I think)

6 Ogres

8 Leadbelchers

4 Mournfangs (Dragonhide Banner)

2 Sabretusks

Ironblaster

Thundertusk

The game was like the last one.I lost 20:0.He shot my magma cannon and my hellcannon in the first round.Also he killed my destroyer after it had to charge a sabretusk.Damn ironblaster.I shot away his thundertusk and his ironblaster with two lucky shots.The rest was very fast.A combined attack with his mournfangs and his ironguts gave me the killing blow.

After one challenging game ,one waaay too easy game and a hard game where I lost very hard i had 25 points.I ended up at the last 3rd.

Now I want to test some other lists so stay tuned!
