    vsing pansies

    i didn't realize there were so many pansies on this forum, even the infamous johnny.... i logically understand the reasoning to sit back and wait for the enemy to come to you, i used to play empire gunlines all the time, but i never sat back, i'd send out knights or regiments on the flanks, or...

    vsing pansies

    lizards had some skinks and salamanders, and heavy magic from slann, he was able to dominate in magic, and this was my loan loss, the high elf player had no range, and a high elf lore lvl4 mage. he also had two units of 10 silver helms. it does make sense, they can just wait for me with no...

    vsing pansies

    the last tourny i played in, all three opponents i played, on their first turn, made no moves. i played dwarfs, high elves, and lizards. with dwarfs normally you would expect this, but he didnt have a gunline, just 3 warmachines. the lizard player actually moved backwards deeper into his...

    VC vs dual steam tank, max warmachines: impossible?

    vargulfs are vampires and dont need to be within the generals 12 inch range. hero wraiths are deployed last, so deploy them in units lined up with the steam tanks. and charge out of the unit when the opportunity comes.

    General Tactics

    I'd also consider a wraith or two in the unit to accept challenges. Think that might work?

    General Tactics

    Every game I've won in 8th is due to my combat tooled/vampire lord, killing whole units, by himself. He of course was in a unit. They just didn't do much. I like him in black knights, if an enemy challenges I accept with the bk unit champ. Who has been a lucky bugger by rolling killing blow...

    deploying advantages?

    so ive been playing whfb for 12 years or so, mostly in a tight group, where we've been limited on ideas and strategies. deployment for example, we always competed(take less total units) to finish deploying first, so we can get that +1 to see who goes first. but reading through these forums, i...

    Black Knights vs Grave Guard

    in my first game with the new book the other night, i tried out the black knights, main reason i got them, was because my hybrid lord was mounted and needed a unit to go in, before ive always have chosen GG over BK, i was impressed with the BK, they are very resilient, the unit champ accepted a...

    fear q + nightshroud q

    so your asking if a fear causing enemy like trolls or ogres would get the modifiers from the screaming banner and fear incarnate? if a wraiths was present well after reading them over, id say the banner for sure applies, but not so sure on the wording of fear incarnate, its says it applies to...

    Bat swarms tactics

    speed of asuryn is a separate rule then ASF it just happens to include ASF, it also includes the rule that they will not lose ASF due to their weapons (great weapons) so even with bats swarms taking away their ASF, HE still have the part of the SOA rule that protects them from the effects of ASL...

    What are YOUR core choices, under the new book?

    i started vc in 7th, but with my old empire army i used to play against vc in 5th and 6th. the kid i played would run the same number of core units as heroes/lords (mainly vampire thrall), and stuck one hero/lord per block. i recall his army seeming really balanced. ive since started to view...

    Tactica: Wraiths

    so i totally tried this in a 1600 point army, 4 in a front rank of spear skellies, i deployed them as independently, my cousin, who was my opponent, thought it was a normal unit of wraiths, they joined the skellie unit turn one, and when they got in combat, i buffed them with the lore of beasts...

    Terrorgeist & Varghulf: BFF

    i also tried this combo the other day in a 1600 pt army, against WoC turn one my TG marched to the side of a loan Chaos Lord on barded horse, i guess he had tones of armour, something like 0+ but the TG scream killed him on my first turn, i rolled double 3s. which is exactly what i needed...

    Golden Bat Competition 2011

    I have a question about the competition. I'm in no way the best painter, and instead of spending my time on conversions, I tend to build my best models from the ground up, using all sorts of materials, I have two models I'd like to submit to the competition, the problem is they are already...

    Finished Art and Concept scetches

    the dots i did with an art gel pen, i used some things as a reference, and some from my mind, so i placed fewer dots where its a highlight, and place dots closer together where i wanted it to be dark, its a slow enough process that you can keep planning ahead, and figure out what you wanna do...
