300pt Sample Armies


Recommended Posts

Actually I thought about posting a warning like yours, but I suck at writing and couldn't think of a way to write it that wasn't a complete run on sentence or nonsensical. So I just didn't include it.

 

Yeah, cuz mine wasn't... :lol:

 

I've got nothing against the kind of list Jeff posted; in fact, they can be quite fun. But since the OP's intent is for these to be starter armies to interest players in picking up the game, I figured a bit of disclosure was in order. Warlord (in general) scales both up and down from the standard 1K mark pretty well. The small caveat to that is point-heavy models in small army builds (sub-500, I think). Once you start exceeding the 500 point mark, a single model is less likely to tip the balance of the game.

Here's a list based around what can be made using only pre-painted LE minis. Cause ain't nobody got time to paint demo armies, and playing with painted minis is always more fun.

 

Necropolis - 299 pts.

 

Troop 1
Railor of the Unbodied
Naomi, Mistress of Wings
Skeletal Archer x 2
Skeletal Spearman
Skeletal Warrior x 2
Zombie x 2

Troop 2
Gargoyle

 

As an added bonus, it allows the player to participate in all three types of Combat Actions plus a flyer. I think every demo army should include at least 2 cards in the initiative deck to showcase the variable turn aspect of Warlord. Either by having at least 2 troops, or a Tactician or Book of Tactics.

Here's a Reven list that only uses LE minis.

 

Reven - 299 pts.

 

Troop 1

Kagunk, Ogre with Book of Tactics

Bloodmane, Gnoll Champion

Korgug, Bugbear Bully

Goblin Skeeter x2

Goblin Warrior

Orc Warrior x2

I could almost do the list above with metal models that I have except I don't believe I have any Goblin Warriors.
