Ok, sounds reasonable really.

Does anyone use the Thrall over the Necromancer?


I will be now, the magic phase just does not belong in Border, even with our great magic, I think the problems of keeping your necro alive far out weighs the joy of ION et al...
 
Yes, it's true; I do take a Level 2 Necromancer with Black Periapt as my BP general as it's an amazing combination, but he only survives so well simply because my opponents do not realise how easy it would be to kill him. A simple charge with a unit of light cavalry, direct two attacks from the riders and two attacks from the steeds and there's a good chance he'll be be killed there and then. Of course I do bunker in, but if there's a miscast or something like that, he's screwed.
 
Fortunately I wouldn't play Border PAtrol against any of you plebs ( ;) ), and if I did it'd be Cloak of Mist and Shadow, just to throw you... OR WOULD IT?! :D
 
In case anybody is wondering why nothing has been put up, I haven't had time. On top of coursework, the internet not actually working properly has reduced me to limited time.

But I will try and get something sorted and posted soon. There is no set date however.

Where can i get the rules for border Patrol is there a link in this thread i missed :S ? has anyone taken an all cavalry list for this?

As far as VC are concerned, you cant as you can only have one special or rare slot. Unless you want your patrol force to consist of just one unit.
As for the rules just go to GW website, they are on there....

You can't have an all cavalry VC force, your army must have at least one Core choice and have 2-4 units.

Well he said you can't. ;) But you can have an all cavalry VC force; 1 Vampire/Necro on horse with 2x5 Dire Wolves + left over into the BK unit. Pretty hard list, both to play with and against.
 
You also have to have one infantry unit of at least 10 models. Thus, no army at all can ne all cavalry, which is probably for the best.
