Title: Opinion/ideas On Army List


awilde - May 3, 2007 09:46 AM (GMT)
Just wanted an opinion on my army list so far, havent played in like 10 yrs and its been a month or so buying troops to make my old 'undead' army into a true and legal VC army (hopefully this will come out ok, its ripped out of an excel file i use to perform calculations)
Once i finish painting up this army, i was going to extend to 2000/3000 pts, maybe put mannfred von carstein as general too, any ideas or opinions would be cool.


Heros
{group 1}Vampire Thrall = 131pts <general>
Great Weapon
Nehekaras Noble Blood
----------
{group 2}Necromancer = 150pts
Lvl 2 Wizard

{group 3}Wight Lord = 116pts

This should be in the Necrarch army list forum. Please take the time to post in the right place.

Your thrall can't take a GW.

Spears are pointless, and your unit has only got a +2 rank bonus.

The GG are far too small to be in any way effective.

Make the thrall into a necro with a periapt and scroll, and switch the core to 20 skeletons and 20 zombies.

Banner of the dead legion sucks on a unit that small. War banner would be far better. That said, you'd be better off with a unit of 5 knights with everything and the banner of the barrows, with the WL in there, on a barded nightmare, with a battle standard, gem of blood and sword of the kings.

On the whole not a very good list.

{group 1}Vampire Thrall = 131pts <general>
Great Weapon
Nehekaras Noble Blood

This can't be done necrach can't take great weapons. Check in your army book. Take another necro instead.
----------
{group 2}Necromancer = 150pts
Lvl 2 Wizard
Dispel Scroll
Book of Arkhan

Alright
----------
{group 3}Wight Lord = 116pts
Wight Blades
Shield
Heavy Armour
Cursed Book

No point giving your wight lord this make him a BSB and give him the WB
----------
----------
Core
{group 1}Skeletons X15 = 160pts
Spears
Musician/Standard/Captain

Drop the captain and the spears they suck with skeletons. Also why to small units of skeletons should be 20+
----------
{group 2}Skeletons X15 = 145pts
Musician/Standard/Captain
Same as above
----------

Zombies X10 = 75pts
BrainDead
Musician/Standard
No point taking a muscican waste of points and unit is to small
----------
----------
Special
{group 3}Grave Guard X12 = 211pts
Wight Blades
Shields
Musician/Standard/Crypt Keeper
Banner of the Dead Legion

Complete waste of points no point in this unit drop them to get a unit of 30 zombies
