I haven’t tried it out yet, but Illusion also looks tempting to control dragons with the Crystal Column and with Miasmic Mirage to prevent it from marching and charging.

This is the best strat I have found. Even if it doesn’t work every turn.

I really don’t understand how GW could think that giving access to regen in top of ward saves for characters was a good thing.

Chaos Lord = 10
Sorcerer Lord = 7
16 knights = 32
Dragon Ogres = 12
Hellcanon = 5
Total = 66

He's right, as long as both characters are on the table he is unbroken.

where (stupid) step-up was a thing.

Step up wasn’t stupid.
Attack in an extra rank, and horde attack in extra rank again, as well as steadfast were all the problematic rules.
Fire in two ranks was a great rule though - i miss it this edition.

Also pushing them sideways can be interesting

Thanks for the reply.

Whilst it is not my intention to grow the force into a proper army, there is always that possibility..     :unsure:


:D

Looks amazing, and welcome to the slightly embiggened land of 25mm, I look forward to seeing your small force become a true army when it's painted up, your 10/12mm stuff is amazing and I can't wait to see what you do with the larger models ;)

The papered over slots on some of the bases made me immediately think of the "borrowed your disruptor" IOU note in Deep Space Nine. Anyway...

Pushing back into a summoned Elemental spirit and/or pillar of fire is fun too

Your break point is based on unit strength not point values.

Congrats on the win! This list has a super strong movement phase and maximizing Drilled is going to be the new specialty of the empire for sure. We’re just insanely mobile now in a way I don’t think people have fully picked up on yet.

As for dealing with Dragons, I’ve faced an ethereal elf dragon a couple times and did not have any tools to dent it. But I’ve been able to tie it up with chaff (outriders and archers) and with stubborn knights and my own Griffon. I’ve even been able to beat it on combat resolution, but haven’t been able to make it flee for a run-down pursuit.

I haven’t tried it out yet, but Illusion also looks tempting to control dragons with the Crystal Column and with Miasmic Mirage to prevent it from marching and charging. Not to mention doppleganger with the dragon slaying sword could be vicious.
