Army Name: Knights of the Vale
Special Notes
- I like the changes they made in 8th, and I *almost* want to start collecting fantasy as well as 40K... but it's going to be 'Counts as.' I like Bretonia theme-ing, but their infantry seem kinda awful, and I3 Knights seem like a really, really bad plan. So, using models from a bunch of different armies, and using the Chaos Rulebook since t4, i5, and Chaos armor are worth it, I'm throwing this list out there.
- I don't have the new Rulebook as of yet, and while I THINK I remember the % max/min, I don't remember what total # of units is required for 2000pts. Hope I'm legal. If not, feel free to yell at me until I fumble back into my FLGS...
LORDS
Lord: Sorc Lord: 420
- Lvl 3 Sorc; Mark of Nurgle, Steam of Corruption, Demonic Steed, Runeshield, Bronze Armor of somebody, Rending Sword
The Anti Anti-hero. The goal: make a dude who can do damage, run around on his own, possibly sneak around and hit firing lines, but not simply keel-over to Character hunting characters.
CORE
Core 1: 18x Warriors of Chaos: 348
- Mark of Nurgle, Extra Hand Weapons, FC.
3 Ranks x 6 Dudes. The goal: a Unit that can deal damage to other blocks but also stick in against specialists. I think they work...
Core 2: 18x Warriors of Chaos: 348
- Mark of Nurgle, Halbreds, FC.
See above
Core 3: 9x Marauder Horsemen: 165
- Mark of Nurgle, Light Armor, Spears, FC.
Fast Cav can reform lots. The goal: Flanking unit.
Not sure if this is the right attitude to have for these guys. Mark and 5+, or should I drop it all and make 2 units of 5?
SPECIAL
Special 1: 10x Chaos Knights: 505
- Mark of Nurgle, Festering Shroud, FC
2 Ranks x 5 Dudes. The Goal: a really, really big multi-tool... for killing.
RARE
Rare 1: Hellcannon: 205
Seems like a great support platform, not quit sure what else to do about range...
Army Total: 1991
Please tell me what works and what doesn't! I am not versed in any way about WHFB, so I don't know what I'm like to come up against/have problems with. Also, If I DO take a liking towards this system, are there any units I should ABSOLUTELY have if/when going larger?
Thanks in advance.
