Hi guys, I'm playing against a friend of mine 2night. We are playing @1K within a campaign. the rules state that the winner of the previous game cannot alter his list! My latest game was a massacre VS Tomb king. So i have to play with this list: Scar-Vet (general) * charmed shield, Dawnstone, sword of might (or burning blade?), CO, LA Skinks priest * diadem of power -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------250 pts 20 SW FC 10 skink skirmishers 10 Skink skirmishers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------390 pts 5 chameleon skinks 5 chameleon skinks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------120 pts 1 x 2 Sallies (with extra snack) 1 x 1 Sallie (With extra snack ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------240 pts. Obviously, this is not a list tailored around Ogres, but still i just have to make a run with it! Can you guys give me some tips to handle Ogres? My plan is to use my Chameleons to hamper his movement on 1 flank. (poison and potentially march blocking) (The other side then his mornfangs will be.... So hopefully they can chip of some wounds and/or models before they reach my SW) Sallies will be on the other flank, to burn some. I know they are not great vs Ogres. So i'll have to use the as re-directors or something.... SV wil be in the centre....i figure he can hold it's ground alone if needed. (1+ dawnstoned AS will be enough???) Skinks will have to do what skinks do best... Poison and re-direct....Hopefully it will be enough. (I wish i could drop some more of these guys on the table) SW...hopefully they will see action when i wittled down his blocks..... any pointers do's/dont's are more then welcome
What I would do is make sure that my chameleons can get to the Ironsky cannon that he will probably bring. That thing must die first! Next, I would angle my skirmishers with my sallies to shoot with skirmishers first, then follow that with fire. That way, you can maybe cause a panic check. Skirmishers causing a few wounds and sallies finishing the models. Concentrate your poison shots on his units from the sides. Do not let him charge you!
