Yep. Salamanders are terrifying. Great at ranged and good enough in CC to eat most hunter units alive. As for equipping a Carnosaur Rider, we like making him a Hero hunter with: Aura of Quetzl, Blade of Revered Tzunki, light armor, shield, Blessed Spawnings (able to ride, +1 armour save, +1 attack o...

@ Avihai : If this army is working for you, you are facing inexperienced opposition. You have no frenzy controllers and a small amount of units. Enemy fast cavalry should be able to lead you entire army around by the nose, engaging it only when they feel like it, which will generally be a massive at...

Agreed. The problem is with M4 elite(thus pricy) infantry in an assault oriented army. If we could lure the enemy into advancing upon us reliably, maybe the point cost would be worthwhile. Marauder's aren't the greatest(heck, empire swordsmen are better due to having the same stats on a smaller base...

@ Alarantalara Actually the 2 weapon warriors suffer pretty much the same against the marauders. With now 11 attacks, they average 3 wounds after saves (3.26 but again, rounding for simplicity). with a rank and banner that adds up to 5 CR against the Maruaders' 5 (3 ranks, standard + outnumber) thus...

Now now.... please put down your torches and pitchforks..... let's be reasonable about this.... Ok, I'll be the first to admit that Chaos warriors come with a heathy stat-line and good armour. The problem with them is their cost and speed. Pricey elite infantry have their place in a more defensive l...

Generally speaking the only infantry units which I will pay to equip with spears are Saurus Warriors, Savage Orcs, and Clanrats (and the clanrats only get them because I have points to spare). To get the most out of spears you need either high Strength (Saurus, Savage Orc Big'uns), high Attacks (Sav...

Found an old battle report between my brother's Dwarf army and my Khorne warriors (a bit of a departure from my normal Tzeentch Rodeo army, but I was feeling experimental). The Doombringers of Jher'rah Jher'rah "The Forbidden One" Exalted of Khorne with barded steed, sheild, Axe of Might, ...

Clash of the Chariots Our Tomb King player threw down the guantlet to finally determine who's chariots reigned supreme. Tomb King Army Tomb King with Sword of Might, Enchanted Shield, Golden Ankh, Light Armour, Chariot Tomb Prince with Greatweapon, Light Armour, Brooch of the Desert, Chariot Lich P...

Thanks! I used to be a Mod on the COTEC(Chamber of the Everchosen) forums back in the day, and it's nice to find another message board to read and comment at. 6th is my favorite edition of Warhammer (it was a tragedy on how quickly they screwed up 7th). Pretty decent army balancing (except maybe Bre...

I'm pretty sure that, Rules as Intended, the only DOW characters which you are allowed to take are those that come in Regiments of Renown or the Dark Emissary/Truthsayer. as the rules blurb in the army books regarding DoW refers to being able to hire troops and regiments. Also, the maximum number of...

4 of us had gathered to play some Warhammer and , as is often the case, we decided to do a team game. My Tzeentch Rodeo army and the Lizardmen, against the 2 Undead players. Lord Tammil Augrimm, the Chosen of Tzeentch, sat enthroned upon his flying battle platform, high above the soon to be battlefi...
