    Vampire Counts V Wood Elves

    Just for future reference. The glade riders charged crypt horrors in turn 1? I don't have my rule book on me. But I'm pretty sure who ever has turn 1 cannot declare charges. That's usually a reason I concider giving up turn 1 if I win the role off. Just an FYI

    War bands campaign

    Thanks for quick response. I should cover a few more things. We can only have a lvl 1. And he can only know the sig or first spell of chosen lore. Even at lvl 1 and getting another crypt horror would be nice, healing 2 wounds a turn. Plus lore attribute. My concern is 10+Chaos warriors. By...

    War bands campaign

    My group and I have gone through our first level in our campaign. Each army started out with 250 pts. You can spend 150 on a hero. Or you can have a unit champ be your general. But the unit has to be its real minimum. Infintry bases are a minimum of 3. Calvery bases are 2, and monstrous infintry...

    250 pt war bands

    I didn't even consider trying to get a monster. What about a vargulf and x5 dire wolfs with champ and x3 dire wolves? Think the vargulf + thunderstomp could solo units like 20+ slaves? Or 20+ night goblins? My only concern is high elves with reaver bow. I do like the double wraith idea...

    250 pt war bands

    Thanks for the ideas. I like the all ethereal one. I'm currently considering it as my official starting army. But I have to keep in mind things I want down the road when we start approaching normal sized armies. After each game ill get points to add for the next game. So we did some trial...

    Fast Chaff Tactics

    I've typically gone with 5-6 wolf darts. And I usually place them in pairs. What's nice about this is on the van guard move I can have them fan out and clog the entire battle field. My opponents almost always target them over the rest of my army. With shooting and magic. But what I like to do at...

    Using Dire Wolves Correctly

    I've come to lOve the wolves. I first started to use them out of necessity. Most all my opponents ( ranged attack heavy or not) like to sit back and even move back. So closing that 24" gap is done best by our beasties. Depending on my build. I don't mind going heavy spending on these. As many...

    How to Defeat Daemons & Warriors of Chaos

    I fell inlove with other trickster shard the other day. While vs WoC my opponent brought 25 chosen. And managed to get off a couple blessing from the gods or whatever and permanently got 3+ ward save. And my blender with OTS managed to kill 5-6 a turn. And being in contact my two baby vamps...

    Back from the Future. New army for the new year.

    Just a suggestion on buying black knight kit. Find some old skeletons steeds throw hex wraith rider on it. Looks nice too. Then you get not units out of kit

    Chaff success stories

    Chaos born please do tell how you use them to frustrate/ irritate your opponents, I would call that a success.

    Do you prefer to charge or get charged more often?

    I'd love to take the charge anytime with infantry. The problem I have against almost every opponent is that they avoid combat as long as possible, so their range weapons can be more effective. So with vampire counts I've learned I've gotta be very aggressive or I lose.

    Chaff success stories

    Wight king spam

    Sun king, I promise to try this out soon, just for you. Stat line wise it's basically 5 crypt horrors with a smaller front, 50% more movement and a 2+ armor save. Yeah yeah it's 2-3,times the price. I do realize this.

    Wight king spam

    I'm going to keep defending the wight wall. Even though blender lord and buss is much more worth the points spent. I just like the idea. Like their movement is fantastic, and with ethereal movement. You could score a flank charge almost as well as fast caverly. And I think there is potential...

    Wight king spam

    I really do want to try something like this. Even if you fail to cast beast spells on them they are insanely tough. The front rank anyway. Plus loads of killing blow. I think this unit could take on chaos warrior horde. That's saying something, seeing how there would be no blender vampire to...

    Wight king spam

    So just idea I wanted to throw out there, what if in a 2500-3000 point game you have 5 wight kings on the front rank of a bus of black knights, They'd have banner of burrows, on of the white kings would have banner of swiftness as the bsb. So movement would be ethereal and 9 inches. They'd...

    Wight kings?

    And you'd have enough Points for other trickster shard. Not very defensive but very high chance of scoring a killing blow. I'll need to try this set up.

    Question about multiple Blood Knight raising.

    I thought you could only raise 1 because they are vampires. I'm I missing something? Thanks in advance for clarifying
