also, very, very few armies can actually make a list that's both magically powerfull and combat efficient; typically you have to choose between a defensive magic stance or an offensive one. i'd honestly try to pick just a couple of basic ideas, say 'mobile & magicky' and then work towards that goal! for the above, you'd want things like the dragon mages or another high level wizard, ellyarian revears for their speed, some chariots for hitting power and then a couple of solid blocks of infantry for some staying power! cheers!

| Re: help? experiment 626 is right. but i've been able to have a combet effective army with good magic. first, how many points are you aiming for?? if your in the 2k range. I'd take a prince and 2 level two mages for my lords/heroes. for core i'd go 2-3 units of archers (probly 2) . for special a unit of DP supported by helms or reavers. I'd also bring a unit or two of SM or PG (i would probly go PG, but that is me). in rare i'd take 2 RBTs. i dpn't have my book near by so i can't say the total points. but i'd go two units of ten archers (that's 220pts), a large unit of Dragon Princes with full command (330pts, and maybe a magic banner if you have the points), two units of five silver helms with champ and shields (i think that would be around 262 pts) a two units of eight-teen Phionx Guard with full command and one with the banner of Sorrcery (witch is a total of 650pts and should be fielded 6 wide by 3 deep) and for rare two eagle claw bolt throwers (which is 200 pts) that totals up to around 1662 pts without lords and heroes. for the prince i'd give him dragon armour, barded steed (with is 14pts i believe), star lance, and Vanbracers of defence witch will be around the total of 268pts. for the two mages i'd give one, sliver wand and to scrolls, and level two upgrade with is 185pts and for the second mage the seer staff and a scroll witch is another 185pts. they can be mounted if you wish but it does matter. So with charitors it will probly be around 2,320 pts. it is moblie, shooty, magicly, and can get stuck in. well hope i helped. |
