Andrewgeddon Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 So I just picked up my 9th Age ticket for OFCC, and I'm getting myself hyped up, reading through the tournament packet and putting together lists. In the interest of getting this hype train going, I thought I would post my list that I'm looking at running, and see what other people looking at bringing? I'm looking at bringing the Ogres (once again!), since my KoE are nowhere near ready: Shaman -General -Wizard Master -Lvl 4 -Hellfist -Book of Arcane Lore -Great Weapon 8129 Tribesman -Full Command -Iron Fists 6704 Bruisers -Musician 2733 Bruisers -Musician 185 6 Mercenary Veterans -Swiftstride & Thunderous Charge -Standard / Muso -Banner of Speed -Iron Fists 8102 Tusker Cavalary -Muso -Iron Fists 340 Kin Eater 2004 Bombardiers -Muso 315 4 Bombardiers -Muso 315Thunder Cannon 300Slave Giant 280 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeninator Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 You only have 2 scoring units sir! This is legal, but one of the scenarios becomes impossible for you to score a 20-0 due to the lack of a 3rd standard. *Scenario 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeev Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Indeed you no longer need standards to be scoring...just the scoring rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeninator Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Oh yeah.... I have a lot of rules reading to do 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewgeddon Posted July 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 So ended up doing a lot of revisions to my list after the last game I played: dropped the Shaman in favor of a choppy lord to go in the unit of Mercenary Vets (now 7 strong w/ Bodyguard +... something else. Lethal strike?). Messed around with core, ended up dropping some stuff to add another Tusker and a ... RockStoneHorn-thingy. I'll post my revised list at some point, now I just need to wait for my Stornhorn to ship... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the tourney packet: Lists All lists are open, meaning that you are expected to provide a copy of your list to your opponent at the beginning of each game. Lists are expected to be submitted to the Head of Gaming no later than 30 days before the event to be reviewed for errors. ...I guess I should have read the tournament packet better, haha. Someone help me decide if I should run a Giant or a Cannon!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBeninator Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hey guys, Don't worry about submitting your lists 30 days before. I was over optimistic back then, the night before will be fine with me :D To that end, if anyone who has already submitted wants to submit again, that is fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixxer Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Played my first game against Sam's Dread Elves on Saturday. Twas a smashing loss to a very solid general and army list. Thanks for the game and the experience. The warriors could not get a break on a few long charges, EVEN WITH RE-ROLLS (Lust), pretty annoying but that's what happens when you play against elves and your dice haven't been warmed up in years. The counter charges were devastating and that was game, no question. With that I made a few changes to my list... Of course I would. This is what I'm thinking, the issue is getting enough scoring units while still having the ability to bring threats from every direction. Dropped Barbarians, 4 knights, and changed the characters up a bit. Need to go straight alpha strike with a follow up of warriors to hold positions or do what scoring units do. Considering lust allows warriors to reroll charges, I figure they arent a bad option for core scoring units that might be able to pull off a long charge every so often. Figure the DP and Lord supported by chariots, knights, and a giant should cause some early game disruption/ destruction. I figure this is their best option Demon Prince *General Lust, Apprentice Wizard, Shamanism, 2 spells. Waste hardened Skin. Lucky Shield, Lucky Charm. 2+5++ Lord of Chaos Lust, Shield, Demonic Mount, ToE, +1S Sword. 1+5++ BSB Lust, Shield, ToP. 3+6++ Core 17 Wasteland Warriors. Lust, FC. 18 Wasteland Warriors, Lust, FC, Great Weapons Special 6 Knights, Lust, FC, Magic Weapons. Chariot, Lust Chariot, Lust War shrine, Lust 5 War hounds 5 War hounds Monsters Giant 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewgeddon Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 I like it Matt! What does ToE / ToP stand for on your Lord / BSB? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewgeddon Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Also, only because you mentioned long charges, something you *could* consider doing: Transfer some Wasteland Warrior from one block to the other (1 big block to go forward, 1 smaller one to sit on objectives) BSB gets Stalker Standard (Strider + Swiftstride), banner bearer gets Banner of Speed. Move 5 warriors + Swiftstride and re-roll charges, heh. Not saying that's what you should do, the thought just occurred to me, heh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxer Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 TOE and TOP are the magic items that grant the ward saves. They could have different names in 9th age... Generic Talismans of ward saves is all, the 5+ and 6+ versions. Points are so slim at 4500 that magic items needed to be reduced to whats truly important. a 4+isnt much better than a 5+ in my experience when you compare their relative point cost.

Got it, totally makes sense! Yeah, for 100 points I almost never bring the 4++ save, or the 4++ regen now that regen no longer stacks with Fireborn. I do take the 5++ in a lot of my lists though, it has served me well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chariot, Lust Chariot, Lust War shrine, Lust 5 War hounds 5 War hounds Monsters Giant Twas a magnificent game sir one of which hinged purely on the luck of the dice. I think with the added impact hits of your chariots from the charges and the +1 to the combat res it would of had a different out come. I think with the addition of the Giant and the chariots being extremely tough to get rid of it is a really solid list. If it was me i would drop one of the warhound packs as they seem to be pretty light and woeful and throw in a couple more of your knights. Your chariots have the flexibility to quickly get down flanks to take on war machines if need be and think possibly the points could be better backed up in the knights keeping them a dastardly unit that is pretty threatening. Just my 2 cent! Was a fantastic game and hope we get to have round 2 at ofcc but this time with more scotch and shenanigans! :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
