Dakkites, Real Superman again

I've been toying around with a troll army recently, not to play with to replace my warriors list (because I still believe in Warriorw4Warriors... If you have one of the most competative core choices in the game, like Spartans of old, why would you not use them? ), but too use as a change of pace. I still want to win mind you

2400 on the nose, what do you guys think?

Enscrolled weapons. I see a TBS reference here.


Other than that, I'd drop the standards off the skullcrushers, and try and fit the level 4 on the prince.

Pretty much the same as the list I have been toying with now I have 18 trolls!, except 1 unit of crushers but 3 gorebeast and more hounds. Let me know how you get on with it (hopefully see it in one of your bat reps seeing as I am subbed!)

Darkavenger: what's the TSB reference? I would of dropped them but I like the combat res in combat and if we play the blood n glory (whatever the banner capture one) I would have lost before we start, so I need 2 banners plus the banners look good.

Markymark; Always a pleasure to meet a fan It will be enjoyable if nothing else Let me know how your game goes with the list !

Listen to the ep called enscrolled and unbrowned. It's on there.

You will have problems against cannons heavy armies. Most of your units have multiple wounds, better take some chosen or simple warriors to draw fire.

Had a chance to play test it yet?

Hey Ban, got a chance to play it Monday night against HE (bunker of WL w/BOTWE, bunker of PG w/razor standard, lvl2 heavens, lvl4 high, 4 5man units of reavers, 2 5man units of silver helms, 5 dragon princes, 2 5man units of sisters and a bsb)

Skullcrushers won the game for me, they freight trained everything, trolls got boxed out of combat so charged throgg out and he dominated on his own so can only imagine what he's like with the trolls, Gorebeast chariots floated around and bsb + dp were in combat turn 2 til turn 6 so they did there job

Horde is hard to manoeuvre and get into a fight I want but I don't want to break it up into smaller units, but I might have too

Crushing victory to me, he had his reavers and sisters left and I had only lost my gore beast and a unit of skullscrushers
