I can change the gurricanum top for a luminary top

And that's it I think.

Please do let me know. I'm not buying anything else but I'm open to the critique of what I have]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6482306.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6482306.page GMT
Where does the Level 4 go? Right now it seems like he goes in a combat block, which is where he doesn't want to be. 10 Archers lurking behind the Halberdiers/Greatswords make a great bunker. Also, what lore are you planning on taking?

You have 3 combat blocks (Halberdiers, Knights, and Greatswords) but only 2 Warrior Priests. I'd cut out one of the units, probably the knights. Great Weapons look good on paper on those 2+ save guys, but the difference between 2+ and 1+ is quite significant (1+ save knights are still virtually invulnerable to Str 4.)

The army is Leadership 8 (9 if the general goes in the Greatswords,) which is very dodgy, even with a BSB. General is pretty cheap or maybe bump one of your Warrior Priests to an Arch Lector.

I generally don't find Pistoliers worth it - not enough damage for 100pts and too expensive to be chaff.

I also like 4 Demigryphs vs 3 for the extra grinding power. If you're not taking a magic banner drop the standard as most of their combat res comes from kills anyway, and should you break you're gonna lose a whole Demigryph model when they flee.

If you drop the knights, you'll only have 260pts in Core. if you add 10 Archers you'll be at 340. To make min core I'd suggest adding 5 naked knights (chaff clearer and redirector) and maybe bulk out the Halberdiers to 50.

Hope that helps!

P.S: I don't think you've spent too many points on characters, but to keep your Warrior Priests alive a little longer I'd equip them with Heavy Armour + shield/enchanted shield/charmed shield if points permit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6482459.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6482459.page GMT
The wizard is taking shadow and if I put him in a block of 20 archers for a bunker

Drop the knights and the pistoleers

Drop the mounted priest in place for a arch lector

Add 30swords

Give heavy armour and a magic shield to each priest

And I've only got 3 Demi's...

But that should come out about right after dropping the knights/pistols, I've not got the book with me but I think that's about right. I could put war banner on the demigryphs that could help

List updated to reflect. I've got the empire book. Not the rulebook on me]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6483715.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6483715.page GMT BSB or another character for the same points it could save his life, plus the luck stone is never a waste.

Also why would you say drop the banner? Is it really that wasted?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6487034.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6487034.page GMT
Also as for the talismans that was a typo on my part (sorry) i ment take in on your wizard/lector.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6493531.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6493531.page GMT
That Is a good idea actually then. So drop the war banner for dragon bane gem on the wizard and luck stone on the lector...

Anything else?

Also what would be the best direction to take this to 3000 points?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6494210.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6494210.page GMT
Also having blocks of warriors that are 5 wide by 10 deep are great, like a halberd unit thats 5x10 with a knight unit of 5x3 and halberds have griffin banner so you will get tons of ranks and the knights will be able to pursue.

Also as many cannons as you have and mortars also, most important is, make sure you have as many warrior priests AND witch hunters as you have blocks of infantry it will more then double their damage and livability.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6500601.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6500601.page GMT
My 16 knights
A griffon general (whit cloak of ulric and lance plate and shield)
Then another cannon
A priest for the knights

If there's anything left over then either mortars or pistoleers?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6510728.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6510728.page GMT
cloak of ulric/full plate/shield/lance/talisman of preservation/ helmet of some sort worth 10pts. giving him a 1+/4+ and one heck of a beast in CC.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6512414.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576436/6512414.page GMT
