Hello All,
So after years of hanging around
WHFB and
40K and hardly playing at all I have decided to make a concerted effort to get an army together and play. Of the two armies I like I've decided to focus on the High Elves first, over Imperial Guard, and have a fair number of models, some of them fairly old and shockingly painted... However nothing a
long scrub with fairy power spray won't fix.
I'm going to get 1000 points together as a first step and now have all of the models for that, even if they arn't assembled or painted yet.
In terms of theme I've always liked the sword masters, and now the loremaster, so will be building a mildly Sapherianly themed army. It will include a Sisters of Avalon unit, and here I can't decide whether to just include them vanilla or to try and do something with the shadow warriors bodies so they could some kind of (male, armoured) special Sapherian magic archers. Thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
So the 1000 pt list:
Lords:
Loremaster: with Channelling staff - 245
Core:
12 archers: with musician - 130
12 archers: with musician - 130
Special:
20 swordmasters: with full command & Gleaming Pennant - 295
(Loremaster goes here)
Rare:
Bolt Thrower:- 70
9 Sisters of Avalon: 126
Total: 996
The current end target of 2500 pts would look something like this:
:
Lords:
Loremaster: with Channelling staff, armour of Caledor - 295
Level 4 Archmage: with Book of Hoeth, mounted on barded steed - 302 (probably using Life or High)
Hero:
BSB: with talisman of preservation, heavy armour, shield, mounted barded steed - 167
Core:
21 archers: with musician - 220
21 archers: with musician - 220
7 Silver Helms: with full command - 191 (Archmage and
BSB go here)
Special:
20 swordmasters: with full commandt - 290
(Loremaster goes here)
21 swordmasters: with full command - 303
Rare:
4 x Bolt Thrower:- 70 (280)
7 Sisters of Avalon: 98
2 x Great Eagle: with swiftesense and shredding talons - 65 (130)
So thoughts, comments etc welcome.
