The chimera isn't overrated it's just a huge target running around on it's own. Two of them will wreck!

 

You were also playing against uncomped armies.

Gyros are still good at holding small units in place for a turn or two.

Which tools in the Bretonnia army book shut him down?  If you're not having trouble with him, I'm not convinced your opponents are using him right.  But I think we had a thread on this guy already :)

Lore of heavens for the lore attribute to get more hits on him?

I lose the eternity king in roughly 50% of the games I use him.

@NtK- I just read the OFCC comp, I haven't been following OFCC stuff this year, and didn't realize that Malekith was only -140 and that there was no additional modifier for units to account for the gained abilities.

Mmmmm, free power dice!

Where?

I actually want to play against that list with my dwarf list. The only shooting threat is from the chariot. Heck' I'd play against that list with my dark elf cab list. The blackguard and corsairs aren't elite combat units and the black guard will attract missile fire and redirectors from anyone with experience.

 

I really want to play against this list so I can witness the power!

Guessing you like your trolls purple-sunny side up?

Fact!

I hesitate to post because I think the reactions and point/counterpoint going on in this thread is making things worse not better and its entrenching people in their opinions!

I'll PM you an example but you have to promise not to build it and then stomp me with it ;)

Just like I responded in the PM, that list is mute because it didn't make the minimum comp requirement. If the list doesn't meet the minimum comp requirement for OFCC, the OTT list doesn't meet the challenge.

Wait, what's army builder?

Eternity King Warlocks or Wild Riders were just examples of already-tough units that get a free boost in power without any hit to comp.  Relax, man.

I got that. My challenge was just that, a challenge to see if anyone could even make an OTT end times list. In the event someone did, it could be used as a tool to assist in spotting OTT lists.

This made me chuckle because of the thought of worrying about a 3rd rank of warlocks in Swedish.

 

Swedish people do not permit this many warlocks. The do not enjoy warlocks. =P

I had the same reaction. 5 warlocks are already comped hard enough, and I couldn't even imagine bringin 10 to a comped event.

I challenge anyone to make and post an OTT Eternity King list. Y're not going to see The Eternity King at this event. I made a sample Eternity King list usinmg the Eternity King for BSB and I had a comp score of 0.2. That was without witches, multiple units of dark riders, executioneers, and anything else that mattered.

 

As for some of the examples. NtK, when was the last time you played against a unit of 15 warlocks? They will get hit too hard with comp for that unit to be at OFCC.

 

The comp pack is restricting End Times armies and good luck getting the "suped" up characters in the lsits. Remember, there is still a minimum comp score each person needs to hit, and then there's the minimum team comp score which needs to be achieved.

 

I seriouslly doubt anyone needs to worry about OTT End Times for OFCC.

It is true, the blocks are hard to kill, but a good general will feed them junk, avoid them, and hex them to a halt.

 

I have a single Rune of Spell Breaking.

At the same time, your opponent isn't getting points for the unit unless they kill it. The copters should help you with clearing their chaff. Have you tried a double breaker list? Are you using ranger darts to stop enemy vanuard moves? I've been using 2 units of 6 and that seems to help with stopping opponent vanguards and with clearing certain chaff.

 

however, you're a smart general. I'm sure you'll formulate a solid game plan with your army before the wrath.

If I go to this thing. I am bringing "The Throgg List"

I triple dog dare you!

I don't think you're giving your slayers enough credit. Think of them as experienced squigs. They're unbreakable, and when you kill them there's a chance they do more wounds. You think elves want to fight them?

 

I think your biggest challenge is going to be avoidance armies, and armies who can hex them to nothing.

 

How many dispel runes are you packing?

Yeah, I don't see many things threatening your bull/bsb combo.

Hmmmm..... I guess this forces me to more game nights then. I am looking forward to seeing your slayer king conversion.

How do you think your army will do against a VC army?

We demand pictures of some sort!

I'm glad it helped. He covers soooo many different techniques.

Don't worry rudra, I'll be there!

I am in strong agreeance with spirit leech. Heck, there's times I don't want anything to do with leech with a LD 9 supreme sorceress because it's such a hit or miss spell.

Go to the website and reserve a table in the 21 and over room. There's no fee.

thanks so much guys! got through 2 of them yesterday and learned quite a bit.  ill research the rest tonight!

The painting clinic has a lot of stuff, it may take you a while to find what you're looking for; however, a lot of the stuff he does isn't expert level stuff. It just takes practice. It helped me out big time. I would recommend watching his dark elves stuff. Really amazing stuff there.

 

Also, he uses the Vallejo line which I have found to be much better quality paints compared to gw. The mixing is much easier, the paints don't dry out as fast, more colors to chose from, but I still really like the washes and technicals from gw.
