Hey I'm new to warhammer and would love if some of you people would give me some advice on my army list So im gonna take on a empire army. and then i startet thinking "how do i beat a gun line" And what i came up with was a lot of skink skirmishers, and then just run up and get behind him. I dont know which lore to take with my slann. im thinking lore of shadows or lore of light. The list: Lords: Slann mage-priest focused rumination unfathomable presence higher state of consciousness crown of command cupped hands of the old ones bsb =480 Heroes: skink priest plauqe of tepok blood statuette of spite =105 Core: 40 saurus warriors with musician =446 20 skink skirmishers =140 20 skink skirmishers =140 20 skink skirmishers =140 20 skink skirmishers =140 19 skink skirmishers brave =139 Special: 5 chameleon skinks =60 5 chameleon skinks =60 Rare: 2 salemanders =150 Total = 2000 pts The plan is to get my skink skirmishers behind his lines and just shoot him down My slan will be on his own because he (almost) can't die with the build im using The skink chief is a light hero killer. I would love some advice from you all
Hello, First of, Skimk Skirmishere are NOT your killing machines, they are for redirecting chargers and extra deployments, just to force your opponent to put his big guns first. 10 are an ideal number, 70 points worth of pain in the @$$. 20 dosen't have the flexibility, and it is difficult to fit it. Make 3x10 chamelon skinks if you want to get behind and shoot. You don't have any response vs Heavy infantry(chosen) or Heavy horsmen. Terror on the Slann? Terror is a 7th Edition Relick, with all the BSB and LD 8/9 around. As for the lore on the Slann, well, since you don't have any real hitting power light is not a good option, Shadow dosen't combo with most of your army, so I'd take fire and deal extra shooting damage.
I'm gonna play against an epire army. So ther wont be that any really havy infantry units. And i got awnsers for havy troops. 40 saurus warriors Will take down a lot. And i Will be taking shadow with my slan so ther is some magic i can use to buff my units and unbuff his units and ofc the pit of shades. and no the slann don not cause terror? thats the harrowing scrutiny..
Unfathomable presence is a waste on your slann. You can purchase the talisman that gives you magic resistance of 2 for 30 points and free up 20 from the disciplines. Gaining an additional 3 magic resistance does nothing because a 1 always fails, so you are stuck with a 2+.
yerh i know. but the cost of the other magic items he has is to big to by the talisman. i would go over a 100 points on his magic items.
