But in the games I played I found I really needed to get some more AT in my list that would really do the job. now as you know I'm follow the way of Saim Hann since before I started my own army. Fritz has been going down the Singing spear route with his council and getting in some banshees for CC support. I've chosen to go the other way and I'm going to be using my council mainly as a hand to hand element multe charging multiple support units and just keepng them from doing their job. in order to fill the AT gap i've chosen to ditch one of my fire prisms for the fire dragons in a serpent option. this and some other changes have let to the following list:
HQ: 455pts
Farseer: 175
With doom, Fortune, Spirit stones, Runes of warding, Jetbike
5 warlocks: 280
With 4 x Doom, 1 x Enhance, Jetbikes
ELITE: 283pts
6 Fire Dragons: 128

TROOPS: 621pts
6 Guardian Jetbikes: 152
With 2 shurican cannons

10 Dire Avengers: 152

Waveserpent: 165

FAST ATTACK: 180pts
1 Vypers: 60

1 Vypers: 60

1 Vypers: 60

HEAVY SUPPORT: 160pts

Total: 1699pts
So what do you think?

Interesting.
ReplyDeleteAre the Vypers together in a squad? I've never personally used Vypers, but a friend of mine runs 3 with EML and Shuriken cannons in a squad. They are pretty decent at long range anti-light tank and good anti-personnel too. Running them in a squad gives them some much needed survivability.
well Rkik I found that with one unit of 3 they are a lot more vunrable since all units can just shoot at 1 unit and still kill all three tank splitting them up splits his fire which is also a extra thing keeping him occupied. I haven't tried it yet so I'm just going to have to try it and see :)
ReplyDeletethanks for the comment

ReplyDeleteI like this list a lot, I can see it uses Fritz's main list as a template, and i've used that one many times to great effect.
ReplyDeleteI did always wonder about getting Fire Dragons in there, but I was too stubborn to take away the extra vypers. I rather like this list :)
