I'd recommend more flanking units such as Marauder Horsemen and Warhounds. You could drop a hero to get the points.

These fast cavalry can be used to do what's called charge redirection. Basically you get them in the way of your opponent's super-tough ("hammer") unit. When the hammer charges, they flee, hopefully putting the hammer in a position to be charged in the flank by your hammer (e.g. Chaos Warriors, Knights). The flankers then hopefully rally and can rejoin the fight.

From a $$ standpoint you can look at the WoC Battalion and see what you get, as you get a savings that way.

It's not the stuff in the list that I want, but it does include some Knights and Warhounds.

Oh, and as much as it would be good to drop a hero for the points... I am playing a heavy magic army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/250968/891039.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/250968/891039.page GMT MoT to things for maximum fluff (and 6+ wards) I ran out of points pretty quickly. You'll note that it's in fact 2001 points, but I really don't know what to cut - basically, somebody is losing their musician, and I'm loathe to make the call who.

Anyway:

L: Sorcerer Lord - MoT, golden eye, level 4, disc = 335
H: Sorcerer - MoT, infernal puppet, level 2 = 175
H: Sorcerer - MoT, level 2, disc = 160
H: Sorcerer - MoT, level 2, disc = 160

C: 15 Warriors - MoT, full command, shields = 290
C: 15 Warriors - MoT, full command, shields = 290
C: 5 Horsemen - musician, flails = 81

S: 10 Chosen - MoT, standard, musician, great weapons, shields = 260
S: 5 Knights - MoT, standard, musician = 250
------
2001
54
12 / 7

Speed run down ...

H: Stripped out all the items that were inessential, leaving a puppet so the level 4 can go big and the eye so he can stay alive. I've never seen sorcerers this simplified, but you've got a monstrous magic phase smashed into 2000 points.

C: Warriors got marked up and shrunk to 3x5 formation, and the largely useless marauder infantry were ground up for points and some flailing cav that will be much more useful for you.

S: Chosen got shields to survive some shooting, and the knights got marked up. Across the army your command upgrades were beefed out more, cause musicians, especially in a not-ItP army, are going to be worth it.
