Dear Johnny

[rothgar13]

I disagree with Darvaleth, and demand to see attractive, scantily clad women!

 

[Lynks]

Darvy, if you provide any Doctor Who spoilers I will sell my entire warhammer collection to buy a ticket overseas and track you down then proceed to bludgeon you to death with your own dismembered arms! :mad2:

 

[Questioner]

SPOILER ALERT:

The episode has the Doctor in it.

END OF SPOILERS.

It has the Doctor? Doctor Who?

Perhaps the relevance of why I keep italicising "Who" will become clear once you see the episode.

You know, some of these spoilers aren't even real. They're just randomly blacked out sections of my posts, but I bet you won't read them!

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Sorry Darvy. I must follow Rothgars requests for I am a disciple of Rothgar

 

[rothgar13]

Much obliged, sir.

I have a problem with Chaos. My friend uses units of 50 marauders with great weapons and mark of khorne (thats str 5 and 2 attacks each for 5 pts per model) and chaos chariots with mark of khorne. He also uses lore of tzeentch and likes to use the 6th spell which eats an entire unit up (if he gets a 11 or 12 on the str roll). how do I fight this? I cant have dispel scrolls for all his attempts and he gets a sick +7 on his magic rolls. what to do? he also have a unit of chaos warriors (which we all hate) and they have 3+ armor save and 5+ ward... whats a poor VC to do

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Against Warriors there are a few things I never leave home without.
1. Double Terrorghiest. Their LD is complete garbage (8? Yeah this is my not impressed face )and since we can scream into combats we are not involved in big bats clean up knights and warriors nicely.

2. Now I am guessing it is a Disc Mage? A few 10-15 strong wolf units with champions should sort him out nicely. Run in, he has to challenge then swing a terrorghiest around and finish him off.

3. Lumberjack hordes are very tricky as they are in the top 3 best core in the entire game. A Vanhels Ghoul Horde should be able to take them on and win. Just keep in mind you will need to do major damage control afterwords.

4. Chariots? Charge them in the flank with fast units and laugh him off the table.

Vargheists pop into my head for chariot bashing

And how do you get +7 to cast???

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Book of Ashur and MOT? But that would give you +6..... I do not know how he is getting +7o.o

 

[Swaiper]

He uses a barded steed for his general (lvl 4 caster) he gets +7 with lvl 4 caster + 1 with tzeentch +1 with book of ashur and +1 for being within 3 of another caster with an item that gives all casters within 3 inches of it get another +1. and how do I deal with the sick spell that swallows units for breakfast???

 

[Johnny-Crass]

Ah that item. Forgot about it as its not the greatest.

I think a Lvl4 Death Necro might be helpful. He can not have a great wardsave (5+) so a few snipe spells should seal the deal if the T-Ghiest fails

He uses a talisman of endurance (5+) and that gives him 4+ with MOT. I agree that the T-gheists would help alot but what do I use for core? strictly ghouls? its not easy with ghouls when he can charge them with his chariots of mass destruction

 

[Swaiper]

Im sorry for the double post here but im desperate! what do I do with vampire heroes? ive noticed you dont use alot of grave guards so.... where do you put them? infantry ones that is...

Save me obi wan Johnobi you're my only hope!

 

[Johnny-Crass]

I am not a massive fan of Vampire Heros persay. But when I do use them I use them for armor piercing punch on a ghoul unit. AOD+ Great Weapon+ ASF or AODM

 

[Swaiper]

Ok I tried this time without grave guards but with 2 Terrorgheists and 1 varghulf and he killed my 2 terrorgheists with his 6th spell (2d6 str 2d6)its friggin 24 inches and doesnt require line of sight.... how do you stop it when he rolls a 23 with 4 dices? its just ridiculous.... then my black knights got hit with his other mage with fire (flame cage so he could charge with his knights..... they hurt...) varghulf for hunting chariots? when theres 3 inch differense in charge distance its pretty much luck who gets the charge..... theres no room to get around him when his chariot just marches forward and into units you dont want it to hit.... theres nothing to block with if its low on points it gets slain and he overrruns and if its high its not worth putting in the way... I sniped his lvl 4 mage with lore of death eventually but theres just no comeback : / im at a loss here.... how do you protect stuff from his spells?????? I mean he gets an extra power dice for 25 points??? every turn?? hello powerstone one use only 20 pts? im sorry I didnt mean to write this much but I just had to get it out of me. Feedback would be much appritiated

I had

40 crypt ghouls + ghast 410

40 skeleton warriors + shields + command 230

Wight king + barded steed + shield + lance 129
+opal amulet

Necromancer lvl 2 + the cursed book 135

Necromancer lvl 2 + Rod of Flaming death 140
(mainly for the lumberjacks since they have frenzy and must move/charge

+barded nightmare + Talisman of Preservation

[Johnny-Crass]

Here I will whip you up a hard counter list. But can you drop the point costs as the last thing we want is to get in trouble with GW legal

 

[Lynks]

Never fear, Lynks is here and can put words in peoples' mouths, but really just finds himself editing out people's points costs. In the Future Swaiper, please don't post the points cost for any individual item, totals are alright but no individuals like item costs or for instance, the cost of a vargulf.

 

[daggerfall]

Johny! La gente está muy loca!

I lost my copy of Rosetta Stone....

 

[Count Darvaleth]

Save me obi wan Johnobi you're my only hope!

Johnny, two things need to happen now.

1) Sig that quote. Do it. No excuses or I spoil Dr Who.

2) Our contest between pin-ups and the Master is over. It was completely futile. A vastly superior, new avatar opportunity has been presented; Obi wan Johnobi! And I shall be Darv Vader!

 

[Yorga]

Skaven is a very hard match-up for us I have found. The Furnace unit is one of the only things I have seen out-fight the Gor horde. But then again my local Skaven player ran two towers and dual abom. So I suffered

THAT leaves little room for anything else. How come you don't divert the crap out of him? Beast can have warhounds, right? Your local player is not Josh perhaps? He is dead hard with his skaven.

Sounds good to me.... Good-bye fantastic tattooed boobs... You shall be missed.:'(


Also Yorga he is a bit more local than that. And Warhounds are overpriced for beastmen.

 

[bigbadbat]

Keeping it thematic...
What about Chaos Borna Fett... Dooku Danse Macabre... not a mod, but Yorda sounds pretty cool!

NO! Yorda is too close to Yorga. We don't want confusion.
