TOW 1999 point tournament army list

You'd need a Horned One on the BSB if you plan for him to join the saurus. Really important to keep him from making that block stupid.

 

actually you are right. Maybe can play it with horned, enchanted shield, Luckstone and venom of firefly frog.

or Aura of Quetzl + Horned

 

You cant have both sorcerer and oldlord at 1999... I know it sucks!

 

So the best list is with slann. Or you must plan to play only with scan general.
I think dat Oldblood with stupidity is not the best on field.
With carno male sense, but without meh

 

Is there any other army where their combat lord competes for a slot with a wizard hero?

Just another reason to dislike 1999 formats.

 

Yeah some as skaven or vampire counts. Mostly legacy army. Well I don't dislike it completely. Avoid the double rare choice is quite good and Slann is a really good general, the only problem is that he is costy.

 

I did a new list since I had forgotten the 0-2 limit that applies also to the heroes and the the skink hero isn’t allowed on terradon …

I am bit undecided about the bsb, in the saurus unit he is well protected and give fear that isn’t bad with US 21. Halberd to don’t strike last and AS 3+.
Alternatively I could give the bsb on the skink leaving him alone and play the saurus hero on cold one.

I am also undecided between to try 4 ripperdactyl or 3 Tarradons and 5 chameleons (they cost roughly the same).

Suggestions?

Why isn't the Skink hero allowed on terradon?

I think you'd get more use out of chameleon skinks or another Krox than the salamander pack.

 

Due the tournament restrictions....
Salamander pack is to try to stop fanatics...there will be often 6 in orcs armies. As well as a LOT of infantry.

 

Terradon being monstrous cavalry is still cavalry though?

 

Yeah but not allowed, only heavy & light cavalry.. and all kind of infantry (an exception for slann is made since it was infantry and they changed rules later)

 

4 swarms are better dat Ripple i think. You can better block enemy charge and counter charge with kroxigor and stegadon. Ripple have good impact charge but rly hard control them

 

Ripper have to charge enemy caster and infantry...not to block LOL! Its completely a different tactic. The only problem could be war machine and archers thats reason i am considering about have terradons+chameleons instead.

 

This tournament was designed by brettonians for brettonians.

 

They cannot have duke on pegasus or wizard on unicorn either...both are monstrous cavalry...but i may agree with you. Tzunki blade then ?

 

Reaper: Impetuous with LD 5. If you use it in a turnament need to know if it works.
Skink scout unit work better dat chameleons i think, but only my opinion

 

Impetuos is at 4+ first
Second, you have to know how to play them, they have to don’t test the first charged, you have to put them in the right position so they have to charge the right unit anyway. Not impossible with fly 18. A lot of skinks to block the view and so on
