    Idoneth, Ossariach, Mawtribes, and a few other elite armies can give you trouble.

    Otherwise, at 500 you should be pretty good. Summoning will be your main path to victory. So keep your Slann alive :D

    Alright, tested it out against a death army and wiped the floor with them. I’m pretty pleased

    you would have more punch but the main reson we are so good at low points is summoning and you could just bring in 3 razors turn 2

    Seeing a trog drop down should be pretty fun, especially the look of horror on my opponent’s face. Your right Seraphon summoning is great at this point value

    A block of 40 saurus warriors and a sunblood would be pretty scary to see but I might be facing slaanesh so it’s probably not viable.

    that would actualy do very well agenst slanesh if you brout a priest for reroll saves 1 wound so they don't give dapravity and they could hold down a keeper for 2-3 combats and have a good chance of killing it so not bad at 500 but no don't start with that. focus on taking out the line troops and ignore the heroes unless you can drop them in 1 shooting phase slanesh needs bodies for capture and they have bad armor razors will destroy demonets.

    Luckily behemoths are not allowed right now, for the sheer purpose of keeping the keeper of secrets away. Although now that I think about it saurus and razordons would be a potent combo

    Alright here are the results: Ossiarchs. Ossiarchs everywhere! The saurus had zero chance against their 4+ rerolls or 2+. As we aren’t allowed artillery this week, I had no options. Man are ossiarchs scary :(

    Agreed, ossiarchs are ridiculously over powered. Let’s hope we get something soon
