Humansquish Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 So my gaming group had an idea to spend less time setting up and more time playing, to have forces that were 1000 points but had to be ten models or less. It's been a while since we've done this so my memory is a little fuzzy on a lot of details It's funny, Looter and I actually came up with the exact same list for the Reptus, but I can't find mine anymore. Hopefully he still has the list to post. Here is the Elven list I made for Jon, who is just getting into the game. Argyrian Centaur Warrior x2 Musician Chiral Magic Weapon Book of Tactics Centaur Warrior x4 Musician Mossbeard Mossbeard Luck Stone 997 points, 10 models, 36 tracks Here is the list I had: Samantha Wings of Vengeance Magic Weapon Armor of Mettle Angelic Warrior x3 Angel of Vengeance Magic Weapon Book of Tactics Angelic Warrior x4 Kyra & Lavarath Luck Stone 1015 points, 10 models, 37 tracks Looter was late so Jon and I started our match. After the opening moves I had first combat opportunity. He had one Mossbeard with the cavalry squad to my left, his dragon to my right, and the other Mossbeard in the back. With my Angel of Vengeance squad I could have gone after one of his Mossbeards or his cavalry squad. I chose to go after Mossbeard as I didn't put him past him to trample his own people to get to me. Unfortunately I didn't take out the Mossbeard, but when the cavalry squad charged in I had good defensive strikes to take a lot of them out. I don't remember all the details, but I think I had Samantha's squad with Kyra swarm his Warlord, to the loss of Kyra. I remember I rolled really well with Samantha's squad on their regen and tough rolls. His Mossbeard to my left with his remaining cavalry finished off the Angel's squad, but I took them out. It came down to his remaining Mossbeard and Samantha's squad. He eventually beat down the supporting angelic warriors and put Samantha down 2 or 3 times, but she kept making her tough roll so I was eventually able to put the Mossbeard down. Armor of Mettle rocked that game. -------- Looter made it and we started a 3 way game. Jon and Looter pretty much went at it and I wasn't involved much. Jon had his dragon shoot Samantha's troop with the lighting bolt as I had put them all in a line. He was very frustrated when almost all of them made the regen roll once it was my turn. Jon had sent most of his army after Looter, killing his Warlord who I believe was the Broodmaster. Jon was able to kill the Warlord, but his force was in a bad position to be swarmed by the rest of Looters army. Fortunately for Jon, we ran out of time. So what army would you guys make with the restrictions? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Rodolfo Graziani Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) I'd take a variant on an army I took to ruin against a very shooty Razig army: Vasyl with Magic Weapon, Ironhide, and Eye of the Ancestors (the magic weapon is really just to soak points, his MAV is already gross enough without the add on) 3X Ragon the Blooded all with Ironhide 5X Rageclaw Sentry Musician ('cause the only thing funnier than fast puppies is turbo bosted puppies ) Luck Stone Spirit Wolf 2 Troops 3 initiative 10 models Edited May 29, 2013 by Don Rodolfo Graziani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since Svetlana and Deathsleet are Bones too. That knocks more than 1/2 the price off the cost of the list, and probably brings the whole thing closer to $100. ~v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shakandara Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) Yeah, way illegal. Bloodmane can't be in a troop by himself, the Hill Giant only becomes non-unique with the Noghra doctrine, and you have too many Solos vs. leaders. ~v EDIT: This is as high as I can figure quickly for Reven without gear at only 10 models; there may be an alternate configuration involving Ogg that would get a few more native points, but I don't think so.

TGP Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) I guess either the Reven need some higher value models or they're just not invited to this party (pick a different faction...griffin guy) What models are representing Gronkelfbfbt and Mazdak? Tried to find them in the online store ... had no luck. This picture turns up in the army creator: What are these guys? Edit: nevermind, found it: http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/14396/sku-down/14396 I was searching by the names ... that was the problem.

ObsidianCrane Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) The problem with Reven is the Leader minimum troop counts, more than the cost of the models.

MiniCannuck Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Interesting Nefsokar list. I don't think it is legal. Don't you need at least 1 troop unit for every solo/monster? I could be wrong if there is something in the Nefsokar list that exempts them from this rule. I don't have my books at the office with me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
