An army list discussion that isn’t for 40k? I’m shocked! Shocked, I tell you!
The list sounds solid and functional as it is. I think the weakest part is the minimum unit of boomhowlers’ when you could make some cuts and get the full unit to make a real tarpit. I don’t care to play filthy trolls with my noble patriots of the swan but I think I have a solid idea of how they work. You have to accept that no matter what offensive effects you get from Sloan’s feat they are a defensive unit and need to be defensive. They need more bodies than they need Murdoch, so he’s probably not worth… Read more »
Thanks for taking a look at it guys. I’d originally included Boomhowler and his boys as a tarpit for scenario play – tying up the enemy in melee and keeping them off objectives, although I can see how a full unit of them like Dais suggested above would be more useful. Trenchers could probably do the same, I’ll have to look into them. Embarrassingly, I still haven’t tested this list out through Vassal despite how long it’s been since I sent it. Lots of distractions and then a couple of computer upgrades and forgetting to reinstall Vassal. I’ll post again… Read more »
Also, the plan for Kara was that she wouldn’t just shoot hard targets that were immune to non-magical shooting; she’d shoot at anything that augments larger sections of an army – UAs, character solos that improve specific unit types while alive, that sort of stuff.
That would be a fun list to play against w/ my cryx or trollbloods for that matter…
And thanx for the video guys, You could tell Andy and Darrell, was digging it 🙂
More Warmahordes I say.
I think this list missing out by not having Kara run all the Jacks especially when it comes to her feat turn.
I was tempted, believe me, but Kara needs her Focus and it’s hard to say no to a Rune-Shooting Defender.
the new format for on the table was great and infinity has some great minis.
