Hey,

I'm looking to make a 2k list for fairly competitive play with models I love that can leverage Archaeons command ability heavily.


This is where I'm at

10 Bloodwarriors
10 Bloodwarriors
10 Bloodwarriors
10 Bloodwarriors
Valkia the Bloody
Archaeon on Dorghar
Mighty Lord of Khorne
Aspiring Deathbringer with Goreaxe and Skullhammer
Aspiring Deathbringer with Goreaxe and Skullhammer
Aspiring Deathbringer with Goreaxe and Skullhammer




As per the faq each deathbringer counts as my general which allows me to use their command ability to increase the attacks of my models within 6''.

Lots of tools to jack up the bravery of my units.

Would you make any changes?

Why isn't Skarbrand in here? 4 attacks with Carnage will kill anything in the game.

Ya he seems really strong,

it's just a matter of instead of what?

I want models on the table for objectives and I need battleshock manipulation.

Chuck the mighty Lord, valkia, and one deathbringer for Skarbrand and a bloodsecrator. Drop a unit of blood warriors if need be. At that point you will slaughter the field so well there just won't be much opposition.

Provided your opponent doesn't have any shooting, you should do well.

I'm not a fan of taking 900pt models in 2k pt games, but to each his own. Bloodbound can just do so much more with those points.

Good opponents are going to leave Archaeon alone and kill off everything else. Free peoples or Dwarf Gunlines will crush this army but I am just speaking for what I witnessed during the world campaign.

And maybe this is all you have to work with, I don't know.

I play bloodbound as well and I have been trying to keep it to Bloodbound only - just lacks magic (Khorne! ) and speed. Valkyra and Skullcrushers are really the only thing to get across the board.
