Out of curiosity, did this recieve no replies because it was so good or because it was so horribly unfixibly dumb?

Oops. sorry. Yeah - nothing to add. It look like a pretty solid composition. How do your cannon fit in fluff-wise?

Wyzer1 · « **Reply #3 on:** August 03, 2007, 04:48:25 PM »

Uh, I totally missed this one. I don't know why, but half of the threads miss the "Unread Topics since last visit" thing...

Looks pretty solid to me, but whats this:

Prophet of Sigmar
-(Truthsayer of Albion)

?? I can't seem to remember this model, what list is it in? I don't recall it being in regimens of reknown or DOW, and I can't remember it being in ogre kingdoms...

what kind of hair-brained stupid ass question is this! ... What better way to purge the heretics than from half a board away with a giant lump of lead!

So, by that token, taking a pair steam tanks would also fit the fluff?

Strap the traitors to the muzzles of the cannons and watch them talk.

The Truthsayer goes back a few years, the Albion Campaign. They're still legit, I think. Might be one of those things where you need opponent permission though.

How do you plan to get points from your opponents? I have a bad feeling that a weighted flank attack or pinpoint attack could really hurt this list as there are no knights for speed/intercepting opponents. I would trim off 1-2 units of handgunners and reduce size of infantry blocks for 1-2 vanilla knight units.

Sherminator1 · « **Reply #9 on:** August 04, 2007, 02:21:37 PM »

With four blocks of infantry+detachements along with a unit of 10 flagellents in one rank, I take up most of the board and have no exposed flanks.

cisse · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2007, 09:57:08 PM »

It's true, you have a lot of models. Outflanking won't be that much of a problem, I think.

Still, some mobility is always helpful. A unit of 5 'nilla knights can almost always make itself useful. For the cost, it's really versatile. I don't know what you could remove to get the points for them, but I do think it'd be a nice addition.

Sherminator1 · « **Reply #11 on:** August 05, 2007, 09:10:33 PM »

Would taking a Truthsayer drop my comp score?

cisse · « **Reply #12 on:** August 05, 2007, 10:33:06 PM »

I couldn't say. He's not that bad, but he is sort of a 2nd lord level character, and it's a 2250 points game...

It's quite good, though, as said, some extra mobility might be usable. Knights, perhaps. I'm sure you'll do fine without them as well, if you just keep your lines together when faced with fast opponents.

Sherminator1 · « **Reply #15 on:** April 16, 2008, 03:24:26 PM »

I hate to threadomance here, but I just hauled out all my stuff for the spring here, and I haven't played in over six months. Has anything changed that will affect this list, or is it still, more or less, airtight?

bojones16 · « **Reply #16 on:** April 16, 2008, 08:24:13 PM »

Hey if you have an Inquisitor army why don't you have Luthor Huss??

Sherminator1 · « **Reply #17 on:** April 16, 2008, 10:36:06 PM »

Well, it's a fluff, thing. My army's general is actually a corrupt lector who killed his entire family to become prince of Carroburg and as revenge for being sent to join the priesthood. I don't know.. Luthor Huss really hates the church leadership as it is and I just feel like he really would't get along with ferdinand.

bojones16 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 17, 2008, 01:18:29 AM »

I thought you were making a list to take down another Priest, not your priest has gone wild Sorry

Spiney · « **Reply #19 on:** April 17, 2008, 05:50:26 PM »

If it were me I'd make my Inquisitor a captain with a pistol and use the old warhammer quest model, it doesn't feel right a pistol-less inquisitor, but then you'd lose a DD. I kinda like the truthsayer because its a good way of fitting a wizard in without it seeming heretical.

The truthsayer model is great by the way, he does sterling service as an Amber mage in my Empire collection.

Sherminator1 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 17, 2008, 07:24:38 PM »

I actually don't use a truthsayer model. I took this model

http://store.us.games-workshop.com/storefront/store.us?do=Individual&code=99111102015&orignav=9

(The guy with the torch)

But i got rid of the torch and attached halberd instead to keep in with the truthsayer rules. :]

The inquisitor is the Witch Hunter with the humongous sword and huge grey hair in the middle.
