As the title says I have bought and created TKs but enjoyed building them so far. here is the current list that I am thinking of running for a 2500 point army.

1 Tomb King with Great weapon, Gold Helm,
1 Liche High Priest With Lore of Neck, Standard of the Undying legion
1 Hero Prince with great weapon mounted on warsphinx with fiery roar
40 Tomb Guard with Tomb Cpt., Musician, standard bearer with Halberds
1 Screaming Skull Catapult with skulls of the foe
6 Skeleton Chariots with Master, Musician, Standard bearer
40 Skeleton Wariors with Spears, Master of Arms, Musician, and standard bearer
16 Skeleton horseman with spears, Master of Arms, Musician and Standard Bearer
20 Skeleton Archer
1 Necrosphinx

The points total would be 2499

Seems to be a lot of odd choices in this list.

Golden helm as in golden mask? Useful to scare units but I'm worried about the lack of a ward save on this guy

Smolo82 wrote:1 Liche High Priest With Lore of Neck, Standard of the Undying legion

I worry even more with the lack of ward saves on this. Even with Look out sir or the ward spell if something gets into combat with your main man, hes dead. Also only the BSB may have a standard

Hmm imo I would really only use a warsphinx prince if I ran out of special slots which I think you have plenty of. Make the prince on foot (can buff skeletons) and make the sphinx a separate unit (you could argue hes even more killy with 4 KB guys on)

Smolo82 wrote:40 Tomb Guard with Tomb Cpt., Musician, standard bearer with Halberds

Nothing much wrong here although I havent really tried out halberds. Still used to the old Hand Weapon and Shield combo.

Smolo82 wrote:1 Screaming Skull Catapult with skulls of the foe

Solid choice although I prefer them in pairs

Smolo82 wrote:6 Skeleton Chariots with Master, Musician, Standard bearer

Bit expensive so watch out. They can either do wonderfully or fail without doing much. Risk/reward system

Smolo82 wrote:40 Skeleton Wariors with Spears, Master of Arms, Musician, and standard bearer

Hmm I prefer my warriors with hand weapons to be cheaper but if you can get KB on these guys they could be deadly

Smolo82 wrote:16 Skeleton horseman with spears, Master of Arms, Musician and Standard Bearer

Horsemen with spears doesnt really appeal to me. With those points you could get some other even more hitty unit like chariots or something. If you want horse men I would go for archers for their fast movement and scout

Nothing wrong here.

Smolo82 wrote:1 Necrosphinx

Solid choice although he'll be targeted a lot


In other thoughts at 2500 and playing TK, maybe it would be worth it to invest in a 2nd caster.

Roger. I am completely new to fantasy so I am still getting used to it all. I will upload a modified list soon. thnx for your initial review.

Well feel free to take my advice with salt, TK did just came out and I'm using a mix of old thoughts with fresh ones so I could be wrong on my preferences
