Ginger_jesus Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Recently I started taking a good long look at the Tomb Kings and I was looking for a strategy that works well with my way of thinking, essentially being very defensive and slowing down my opponent, and I ran into Queen Khalida. The though I had was, keep in mind this was after a lot of gin, putting her in a unit of 40-60 archers, a casket of souls, and a Crap ton of buried units to attack the rear as I sit there and pincushion my opponents to death as they spend a couple turns trying to get to me. Any thoughts? Has anyone tried anything similar? Thank you for your input and constructive criticism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexicanNinja Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 If you can kill your opposision before they get to your lines it works just fine. Another helpful tool for this list is a small light council. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_jesus Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 I though of that. Some I just can't decide on skeelies with a prince or chariots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krieger Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 I find chariots to be the trickiest thing in the book. Its really hard to use them efectivley and not just end up bleeding points. However it might provide a good counter punch if your enemy gets to close to the khalida block. I don't think EBTS works very well with a defensive Khalida block. The EBTS units will end up all alone on the other side of table. Giving your opponent an easy points grab. I would reccomend a hierotitan and a couple lvl 2 death mages. They will get Khalidas ld 10 for spirit leech and th hierotitan will make them a lvl 4 cast on avg. This will prevent you from wasting your shots on fast single models such as daemon princes and dragons. 2 spirit leeches and a casket each turn is pretty brutal.

Brick Bungalow Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Honestly never been a fan of static missile defense tactics. It can be effective but is it fun? I'd definitely press the advantage of asp archers in a TK list but without some solid melee units for the actual man dance I just wouldn't feel satisfied. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
