Something like:

Chaos Sorceror - chaos steed, dispel scroll, warrior familiar 146

you basically get a chaos champion w/ a 2+ save, a dispel scroll, and a free S5 hit at the beginning of every fight. a little pricey for what he does, though I've also pondered:

Chaos Sorceror - Level 2, MoN, Barded Steed, Warrior Familiar, Enchanted Shield, Bloodcurdling Roar 211

the pimped out version: adds a knight-killer shooting, an extra power die, lets you hit WS5 elite infantry on 3s, and a 0+ save. Much fightier, dangerous on ranged offensive, but way pricier and no scroll.

So basically what I'm wondering is, what're people's experiences kitting out sorcerors to do something other than the typical wizard bunkering; blasting away and hoping not to explode in CC?

As for the sorcerer lord, you can kit him out just like a elf hero, maybe arune sword and E. shield or something like that.

Overall though i think its better to kit out your spell casters, for casting spells. Its what they're there for and they are quite good at it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/894557.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/894557.page GMT Fighty Chaos Sorcerors?
The second Sorcerer does not have a Dispel Scroll, which kind of defeats the purpose.

I would probably take Dispel Scroll, Warrior Familiar and put him in a group of Mauraders to give them a bit of extra punch.

A more interesting option I think is Battle Sorcerer Lord with magic-freak Sorcerer Heroes and a BSB.

Edit: just because Warrior Familiar is so good. Compare to say one of the cheap swords.

The steed is almost a no brainer for me; 16 pts for a 2+ save, a US for your blocks, and an extra S4 attack. The only place I can think of wanting a hero on foot is if they're frenzied, going in a non-frenzy infantry block. The save hardly makes him very fighty though, as he's still only 3 S4 attacks; ask my Temple Guard champion how well 3 S4 attacks have been working out for him

I think scroll+warrior familiar+biting blade+steed would do alright for 151 points. Certainly equipped to knock 99% of champions out of the park.


come to think of it, this is really more of a YMDC question, but would an item like the biting blade or the sword of might effect the warrior familiar? Since the Sorceror is still the one legally making the attack, I could see the argument that it would.... RAI could easily argue that the Sorceror is the one carrying the enchanted blade itself, but that's not necessarily the case and more of a fluff interpretation of the weapon.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/897060.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/897060.page GMT Fighty Chaos Sorcerors? - but a dude on Warseer runs a really impressive sorcerer lord:

Sorcerer Lord - MoT, bloodskull pendant, enchanted shield, collar of kr0n, spell familiar, level 4

Pretty groovy, brings the gate & the pain.

That is a sweet as sugar build. I'm nabbing it, but then again I never claimed to be original. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/898427.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/898427.page GMT Fighty Chaos Sorcerors? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/898714.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/251620/898714.page GMT
