First Build:
1500 Throt the Unclean is hungry, and looking to munch on anything in his way, including Rat ogres. Not a whole lot of magic, could get lucky on what spell i end up with, and i could go with a level 2 PP and drop a unit of slaves just as easy.
Im hoping enemy wont have that much magic either, and hoping the rat ogres can get 21 str 5 attacks in and do some major damage. Also try to use the slaves as rat traps, and try to get people in awkward positions so that my RO can hit their flanks.

Ok, slay away, im sure i got a lot of work ahead of me, and once i know who the race im going against i can always tweak whatever list i take. But in general i would like to take what i will be using.
Tweaking lists is the ultimate in lame-ness, really ;).
ReplyDeleteI personally think your last list may be the most effective of the ones listed. Good variety of tools, and no glaring weaknesses, honestly.
One other piece of advice- you may want to find a way to standardize how you write lists on here. It'll make them a lot easier to read.
Im looking at a way to standardize the list. Right now I use Army builder, then I have it print out a text summary, and I go through and delete the Point costs of each item, and the unnessicery stuff(like light armour which is inferred)
ReplyDeleteI also do agree with your assessment also. I think the Grey Seer list is the way to go. Its got some good combat, Magic, and range attacks. Not putting all my eggs in one basket.
