1 Marksman (Hochland Long Rifle)
Total Roster Cost: 2499
So this is basically a list of models I own. Wanted to see if it would be a viable list for 8th.
The plan with the detachment units is to get the enemy into combat with the swordsmen (best defense with both an armour and parry save), stand and shoot with the handgunners (to soften them up), and have the halberds counter-charge into the flank to cause the most damage.
3 Long Rifles should help to deal with wizards. The engineers can also provide valuable rerolls to miss-fires on the cannons/mortars and forgo shooting the rifle.
Casters will probably be a mix of beasts and fire.
Thoughts?
