i do not want to place my slann in TG ! well i itend to be the one that charges.. and with all these skinks to divert i hope it works out so i charge where i want!
Hello, As for my thoughts. Salamanders are max 3 in the Army not 0-1 like last years ETC. So I would make them 2+1 (2 panic tst are better than one) Secondly what lore is on a Slann? Thirdly, Cupped hands is a bad idea, you cannot channel. Also Etheral costs 2 disciplines. I would take the Plaque of Tepok on the Slann, and take 4 disciplines: Loremaster, +2extra dice, Soul Stone And removing "6" Also I find it that Chamelon skinks are better when you take 6man squads,(less shots but you can squeeze them anywhere) Try to find points for 2x4 Terradons. If i would go on a ETC tournament I would take A Salnn, an Eotg, 3x10 Skirmish 3x6chamelons 2x6Krox 2+1 Salies a Kohort+Korx unit one Razordon and some terradons
lore probably fire! i donot take EotG because i will participate in a tournament that many players use cannons or things like that! slan idea seems good!! if i can find some points i will add more terradons but the problem is i am going to use them a lot to divert so chances are theywill die! and also: player may take up to 2 of following: Beclaming Cogitations\ Focus of Mystery\ Focused Rumination \Higher State of Consciusness; salamanders are still 0-1!!! first thing in restrictions!
Damn it You are rigth, than 3 Salamanders, If you are Using fire than Kroxigors Aren't that good, and I would suggest a skink priest just for the Vasal as it can save your life. As for the disciplines, no more stubborn etheral Slann to block some heavy hitters, and Highier state costs 2 disciplines, I would go for the Loremaster, Extra dice, and Soul Stone. Give the Slann Plaque of Protection, and a Dispel Scroll(also counts as one DD) and the skink a Cube of Darkness(albo 1 DD ). P.s It may sound Silly, but have you tried using 2 Slanns ? 1 naked with light, and 1 BSB with Death and a Banehead? 600 points total
i do not liek the idea of 2 slann i tried it once was not happy with the whole thing but i mgiht give it a try again some time! thx for the reply! i like krox they wound a lot! and if u place the +1 to wound its autowound i think!
Hello, yes you can wound on a 1+ it wasn't faqed or anything. But They have S6 so the wound most things on 2/3+. I would go for Lore of Light and make them hit on 3+ and wound on 2+
I like the list a lot, looks great except the 8 kroxes, not exactly a power choice but might be fun to play with =). I also agree with some of your discipline choices: Soul of Stone is a must if you don't play Lore of Life, Becalming Cogitation is ofc great and you should always have Mystery on your Slann, but Rumination isn't really that great when restricted. If you drop Ethereal you should get some better protection like DPoP. I would also add Standard of Discipline, its so cost effective and if you don't plan on taking a specific banner then I always go for SoD. Why Plaque of Tepok + Mystery? Wouldn't that make the Plaque useless (Loremaster & +1 additional spell) or am I missing something? Also last ETC's highest scoring LM player (Anders Gustavsson) had great success with 3x10 cammos. His list was actually very similar to this, except he had 2 stegs instead of skrox and krox units. DE, WE, HE, LM, VC and DoC doesn't have heavy artillery like catapults / cannons so not everyone has a way to deal with stegs easily, and you have plenty of war machine hunters. EotG isn't that great in 8th imo, but stegs are pretty darn fantastic due to thunderstomp. If you run 2 stegs then at least 1 will wreck havoc and against a lot of lists both of them will get to combat unscathed if you can stop the key spells in the enemy magic phase. I don't really see how 10 Kroxigors are harder to kill than 2 stegs, stuff like catapults and cannons deal with them pretty well, Pit of Shades and other super spells will hurt a lot and any S4 shooting or magic missles will deal a ton of wounds to them. I get the argument that you don't want to take Stegs because against some armies they will be very easy targets but same goes for a huge block of Kroxigors. Why lore of fire? Lore of Light, Shadow, Death and Life are generally thought to be the best choices, but I've seen other players go for fire (like Polands, the 2011 ETC Champions, player Stanislaw Scheiner). I personally don't see the appeal so what makes you take this lore?
Hello, Sorry, I ment Rumination+Teopk. And I was looking at The Polish Lizardmen Player who also had a Vietcong list As for the Banner, I recently switched from Sod to Standarrd of swiftness. M5 on Sauruses is Awesome, also it helps to avoid unwanted charges
wow those are nice ideas!!! as for the stg i love it but the problem is the tourny i will play in has a lot of warmachines and with the new LoS in ETC i can not kill the machines that easily! i tend to play life a lot but fire has some destructive power! as for the Krox i am th inking abotu htem as well i ahve not made up my mind yet! but i will probably take them out!
true i tried a list with TG and life slann and i really liked it! i think i will replace the krox with a TG unit!
