Great Cannon

Steam Tank

Total Comes out to 1499. The cannons and Steam Tank blast from long range to weaken the enemy while the knights get ready for the charge. The wizard flies around providing support, casting regrowth to heal the tank and knights or dwellers to smash enemy hordes (in the ideal world). I know my greatest weakness is a way to deal with big blocks of enemies which will probably be steadfast against the knights. The counter would then be to get my own big block of Halberdiers but I really want to have an almost all mounted army.

Going up to 2K I was probably going to Add 2 groups of 3 Demigryphs and a lumanark.

They can be super devastating while the rerolls with the engineer make them extremely effective.

Having really only 1 big block of knights will probably be a downfall. You are putting all your eggs in one basket so to speak. If you get flanked (which you probably will with only 1 big unit) then you'll lose big time.
Just take some cheapo halberdiers or spearmen you need to be able to spend the enemy out a little because if you only have 2 things for him to attack the knights and tank (the enemy probably won't go for the cannons or pegasus) then that means he will have an easier time killing you if he has lots of units to over welm you.

Just something to think about, since I don't play empire I'd take my advice with a grain of salt (but hellblasters are the bees knees)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7051189.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7051189.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7054237.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7054237.page GMT
I'll probably switch the captain to be on a Pegasus too. Then he can also go off to clear chaff, flank charge, warmachine hunt, pick up the honeys, etc.

I've heard a lot about how great hellblasters can be so I'm looking into finding a place for them. Maybe if the steam tank doesn't work then I'll easily have enough for 2 hellblasters.

Revised list looks like:

Battle Wizard Lord - lvl4
Dispell Scroll, Talisman of Preservation

Lore of Death

Captain
Pegasus
Full Plate, Enchanted Shield, Lance

Warrior Priest
Warhorse, Barding, GW, Heavy Armor, Dragon Helm, Ring of Volans

1. A wizard on a pegasus is asking to get shot and killed. A 6+/4++ is not going to save him. Something that does enough Str.4 hits like even a simple Fireball spell will put him down. I would get this guy in a unit for protection and then run out if you want to cast something rather than use the pegasus.

2. I think you might run into trouble with just the one combat unit. Your big unit of knights is fairly easy to redirect with chaff and you have nothing that can prevent this. Sure you have cannons but they at most will kill 2 guys out of a unit of re-directors per turn. This could get you in trouble.

I do really think that all-cav. Empire is a great list. I just think you need to tinker with it a bit. At this points level I would split up the core unit of knights into several smaller ones and ditch the priest. I would put the wizard on a horse in one of your units and then have a captain or 2 on pegasi with at least a 1++ (don't need much else) to get stuck into the enemy and cause problems.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7055341.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7055341.page GMT

10 Inner Circle Knights

Also you will never have to drop the stank, it is great at everything throw on top a 1+ save.

For knights I would take MSU of knights around 5x2 so you can hold up their units and get flank charges with the other knights or stank.

Lastly you don't need full command, just a musician, and for your captian drop him for a warrior prist for 2 reasons, #1 he generates power dice #2 he gives hatred and flaming attacks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7060614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/606804/7060614.page GMT
