I would really like some feedback on a list that I plan on taking to a local tourney in the near future. Any and all comment and criticisms would be appreciated.

Kairos's Spells:
-Head 1
Comet of Casandora

Throne of Vines
Either Final Transmutation or Flesh to Stone, really unsure

-Head 2
Melkoth's Mystifying Miasma
Purple Sun of Xerxes
Transformation of Kadon
Fulminating Flame Cage

I think Flesh to stone vs Final Transmutation is an interesting discussion. I think all the other spells are excellent. I would run Flesh to stone personally.

Flamers Blood Letters Horrors are my favorite units for DOC too. I prefer Soul Hunger to firestorm blade personally, however I can justify the points for both.

I can see reasoning behind soul hunger, but prefer the firestorm blade myself. It helps me deal with bigger things that might happen into the Bloodletters.

Interesting thought though after reading the armybook. I wonder if kairos gets to pick his spells at the start of every game, or he has to stick with his set? Like at a tournament for example.

I would hope he can, however with certain spells like the pendulum is highly effective against the Bret Lance for example.

At the startof the game you roll for the spells from the lore you have chosen prior.

Fateweaver choses and has access to all lores.

So you can see what your opponent has brought and then pick before the armies are placed.

That makes sense.

A friend of mine has offered a variation of the list. I'm unsure which is better, both seem to have uses, but I want the best for tourney day. So what do you guys think?
