YESSSS ...

I say go for it! I wish there was a simple way to keep march blockers off you - with WoC there really isn't, as spawn are the only quasi-speedy 360 chargers that aren't Valkia - but whatever, your turns are going to be QUICK Seriously though, I've faced armies with 3x khorne warriors and suffered pretty solidly. That much frenzy is hard to bait very well, and its difficult to turn those warrior's flanks effectively since they're all in support of each other. Personally, I'd cut into the lord's runesword a bit to make points for other toys, and to even things up a bit:

L: Lord - MoK, sword of might, roar, enchanted shield = 280
H: Exalted - MoK, BSB, collar, shield = 180
H: Exalted - MoK, fury, shield = 150
H: Sorcerer - 2 scrolls = 135

C: 15 Warriors - banner of rage, full command, shields = 305
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
------
2250

SO MANY CHANGES!!1
- lord still bad-ass with S6, has roar to give you a dominating shooting phase
- banner of rage on a warrior block so the sorcerer gets to fight too
- 2250 on the dot

Frankly I think you'd be pretty ok maning up and dropping the sorcerer for 3x 5 warhounds + a spot of gear for the heroes*, but at least a rage sorcerer has as many attaks as his stouter brothers. The extra anti-magic will help negate a couple enemy-moving-around spells, which are your bigger concern, as warriors (a bunch with MR(2)) can whether direct damage pretty well.

*2x spawn maybe? Fun to model, and they're a spot tougher to splatter than puppies. Also, maybe catching march blockers?

So even if I lost 2 ENTIRE units to magic, I would still manage to overwhelm the opponent in combat. So I think I might do just that.

So would would you suggest I do if I say took the spawns instead? Ive never used them before and I have over 5 of them at my disposal So Im not for sure on what to do there. I will admit, the one thing I will miss big time in this list is the jugger lord, but hell! Ive got 30 more warriors then I was using before!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1314513.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1314513.page GMT Re:2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors?

How to use them? Not 100% sure myself, as I always support spawn and want to use them, but my rare slots get eaten up by bigger gribblies or my points go elsewhere 2 spawn are more interesting to me than ~20 warhounds though! I'd imagine that if you see great eagles or other irritating march blockers on the other side, then the spawn lurk behind your warrior blocks and just keep bumping into them (i.e. try to move into the warriors, and stop 1" away) until the march blockers flit over and then see if the spawn feel like pouncing. Alternatively they could gribble ahead and try to assassinate enemy casters, or shamble (probably unsuccessfully) after war machines or whatever. Fun times!

A more boring route would be to split the difference:

L: Lord - MoK, sword of might, roar, enchanted shield = 280
H: Exalted - MoK, BSB, collar, shield = 180
H: Exalted - MoK, fury, shield = 150

C: 15 Warriors - banner of rage, full command, shields = 305
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 15 Warriors - MoK, full command, shields = 300
C: 5 Warhounds = 30
C: 5 Warhounds = 30

R: Spawn - MoK = 75

Hmm, I'll admit that I like that one better. You get 1 extra-buff spawn to faff around and jump on birdies, and 2 units of dogs to do their 100 terrible jobs that dogs are made for. w00t for utility troops?

EDIT: I say keep the banner of rage around anyway, always nice to have your lord grinding along until dead.

Also I would drop the lord to exulted and give the BSB the stubborn banner. He will help prevent your flank from being blitzed and everyone around him can hold against any charge.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1319400.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1319400.page GMT Re:2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320170.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320170.page GMT Re:2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors? bsb and keep him hidden from dangerous stuff (perhaps give him a pony for speed and extra save). That should make the warriors a lot more resistant to flank charges and stuff if you keep the bsb placed well. Couple of spawn wouldn't hurt, they are good at getting rid of cheap redirectors and the like if not shot to death. I'd also give the lord either regenration or the armor of damnation for extra protection.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320585.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320585.page GMT 2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors?
EDIT: Im definitely going to try this list a few different ways but I would really enjoy keeping all 75 warriors for the sake of theme ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320595.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1320595.page GMT 2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors?

Thats a couple hundred more points which would mean I would have to drop warriors thus defeating the theme of more warriors than I would assume anyone hopes to see in 2250.

You could drop 1 exalted to get points for the banner & some extra chaff. *shrug*]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1326196.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1326196.page GMT 2250 Warriors of Chaos... 75 Warriors? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1328110.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/277996/1328110.page GMT
