I dig it. I like the orange/red on the gun. looks good.

Found something out about marauders today.... They suck to assemble with flails. Real pain in the butt.

Thanks for all the feedback. I might try running them bare bones and just seeing if a cheap block works for me. I like the models and wanted a little flavor in the army other then just warriors.

So after my first couple games in our league here in Olympia I am looking at what to add next to my list. Being new with fantasy I have a hard time just looking at a units entry and being able to tell how it will play on the table. I was going to run a nurgle army but after looking on the internet I found that everybody runs nurgle so I am going Tzeentch instead. I was thinking of adding a block of Marauders. Other then just being bodies to protect my caster can they actually preform in battle? What is the best way to gear them with mark of Tzeentch? Help a new guy out

I am just starting a warriors army. So I still need most things. I have space marines bikes I am willing to trade or for the right deal other marine stuff also. Let me know what you have.

Thanks for all the help. Really jazzed to try this out. I think I will hold off on Archaon till I have a few games in to get a handle on the army. I hear the beast chariot is really good so I may have to pick one up.

So magic really is my weak point. I played Ogres when I use to play so magic isn't something I know very well. What lores would you recommend to help this out?

Man this sounds like an awesome event. I am going to have to try and catch the next one.

I could drop the warriors down to 25 each, drop one of the 10 man dog squads and take poison away from them. That would give me enough for a lvl 4 with enchanted shield (giving him 2+ armor). But that is a lot of points in lords.

Thanks for the feedback. I will try the razor standard on the knights and break the dogs into 10 man squads.

Archaon is only a lvl 2 caster. But to get a lvl 4 would cost me 270 points. I would have to drop all my hounds for it.

So we are starting a league up here in Olympia soon and it ends at 2500 points. I haven't touched fantasy in three years or so. For leagues I like to build my final list and then work backwards. So it wont be great but here we go.

Lords

Archaon on Dorghar - 650

Core

30 warriors, MoK, extra hand weapon, standard - 550

30 warriors, MoN, shields, standard - 530

20 Hounds, poison - 140

20 Hounds, poison - 140

Special

5 Knights, ensorcelled weapons, standard, MoK, musician - 245

Rare

Hell cannon - 210

total 2455

So I know what you are thinking. Why squads of 20 hounds. Well.... because I own that many and I needed to fill points. I am not sure what to spend the last 45 points on. Archaon acts as a BSB so I didn't bring one. But I could drop one of the dog squads maybe just run two 10 man squads and run a real BSB... not sure. Been a long time since I played.

I have two trades set up right now. If one falls through I will send you a PM.

Thanks

the "future" terrain is mostly flat. Not to many places for plaster. I have a couple fantasy ruins and they have more places plaster could go. On all the pieces there is about an 1/8" lip on the edges. So you could do a little plaster I guess.

@ Nathonicus, I ordered through Noble Knight Games (nobleknight.com). You can order directly from Amera but shipping from the UK is spendy. The product is cheaper from Amera  so if you get a big enough order to make up for the price of shipping that would be the way to go, but for the six things I ordered it was cheaper to buy from a US distributor.

@ JMGraham, I plan on using pop sickle sticks as boarded up windows and make shift supports to strengthen the walls. They are a little thin but really not bad once all glued together. It will work great at my house. I don't know how it would hold up in a game store with rough treatment. I am very happy with it so far. Assembly took a while. But you end up with lots of extra plastic card when you are done so that will be great to save for other projects.

I just got my order from Amera Plastic Moldings and finished assembly. It is all vacuum molded terrain (like the craters GW makes). A full tables worth cost less the $100. Sorry for the pictures being a little white washed, the detail will show up better when they are painted.

Well I have some old metal mega nobs running around I think. If I can find them I think I have 3 but might be 4. Don't have Tau or Grey Knights. Might be able to do something for the allies if you don't want the nobs.

Well I have one trade done so I am looking for one more. What are you looking to get for it?

Sweet, what do you want for it? Also I live by Olympia so are you willing to ship it?

I need two Difilers. Need them with the flail and autocannon arms. Trades work best but paypal is also an option.

Thanks

So I haven't played fantasy in three years or so but I just picked up some models I like and was thinking of started a WoC army. I was just wondering what some common points levels are to build my list to and see where it goes.

Holy crap those are awesome. The lighting affects are just killer.

For those of us who don't have the codex what wording did they mess up?

I have the bits if you are talking about the little hand crossbows. But I live up in Olympia.

I would drop the whirlwind for one of the new SM anti air tanks. Around the same price and would help with those pesky fliers.

Chappy is a crazy man. He will paint his in a week and it will still look better then mine.

What I have left.

3 predators

2 land raiders

1 storm raven

1 dread

Time for the air brush.
