the first booster i bought i pulled an amazon drac. i was so happy. and i imediatly thought of armies. heres one i have been playing with for a while now.
Amazon drac.
autmn lev 2
austrus lev 3
fell banshe ***
fell reaper ***
technomancer *
crisaltine protector ***
give or take a few points, but thats it. so heres how to set it up. amazon austrus autmn and the techno are in a formation ( i know its not really a formation.) then the fell banshe and reapers go oneither side and the protecto goes where ever.
I have never lost a match with this armie and i have played in 4 tournies. i have taken down everything from corphy armies to ram armies. my stratagy is prety simple, i like using low walls or forests. if i am going up against a ram armie, i set it up so the thoughness figs are are making a shell around the healers and amazon. it works extreamly well.
as i have observed from your army you have alot of figures without toughness than figs that has toughness , you may have a hardtime defeating rammers swarmers.
I mean ram is just one of the strategies out there, it is not everything. I see enough toughness in the army to survive ram. If you try to make an entire hate army then you're leaving yourself no room for strategy. Work with what you have and what you find satisfying then along the way learn of your strengths and weaknesses. And besides, you make yourself strong against one type then you leave yourself vulnerable against the others.
Usually when some one puts the word Godly or unbeatable in their army title thread I prepare to click on it and see a pile of junk. Im happy to be wrong in this case. Im not a big fan of Fell banshee's because of their short range and low attack but the rest of it is solid. I would suggest cutting the banshee for a rammer since you have 2 levitators or even a bone toss engine. Both would add more utility i feel.
i have played with the fell banshe a couple of times, but that figure has saved my but, more times than the amazon drac has. many people forget that it has shock wave and 3 damage is not to shaby. i have been thinking about putting in a few ram figs or something, but the its hard to find some ram figs. i dont have the fig or i would. and thanks for the compliment bshugg, this is a really nice armie and i am still undefeted.

i certainly agree.
i did wanted to reply to nightspawns posts on his replies are always "beware of ram! blah blah blah." but i thinked about it that'll could result into flaming, in my "no-sleep" state last night.
anyway....
solid army... hmm... fell banshee. its been a while i've seen someone included her in an army.
redundant cover and healing for the amazon drac, with ample support figs... to kill what the amazon drac has dealt damage.
either a war hatchet krugg or war impaler would be a nice addition to this army to really use the ML on your opponent.
imagine a 24" coverage of the banshee, you could tie up anything and threaten support figures with her! :D
Nightspawn, you haven't been banned yet? The mods must be really busy.
As for the army, I dunno. Saying "Godly AD army" is like saying "Awesome Camero." I mean, it's the AD. How bad can it get?
Personally I would want more charge support, but that's just me. I think the Techno is underutilized here, and I would either compliment it more or take it out.
This is easily the best army you have made yet, orcmonkey. I agree with Dfazman that the second levitator isn't necessary. You should either compliment it or ditch it. Personally I would put a rammer in place of the banshee, as bshugg suggested.
Just out of curiosity, of the 4 tournaments you swept with this army, were Slayerbilly, or Megadeth present?
thanks for the compliments, and no they havent been there. slayer billy has been in the hospital mega death has droped off the earth, and the infamous flying moose has gone to college. i havent had a chance to play this armie agains a highly ranked player (though i would like to.) i like the idea of taking out the techno, i never use him. its just hard to find a hatchet krug or other ramer. i was, however, lucky enough to find a horned impailer. i was thinking of taking out the fell and putting in the impailer. and maby taking out the other fell and putting in a ram fig. that way i could ram or bound with my cover figs. though, if my memorie serves, there is no ram fig with toughness. i like the toughness factor because of ram armies. i have been beat enough times by ram to know about toughness.
The Was Impaler has toughness and ram. If you really want the combination he'd be the rammer for you. Also, if I understand things correctly, billy will be back in business sometime soon. Maybe you can play against him tomarrow. It sucks that megadeth seems to have quit the game -- he was one of the original ganstas of interzone. The infamous flying moose is bored out of his goard with nowhere to play MK at college:rolleyes:
Back to the army. Yeah, dropping the two fells for a rammer and a bounder could very well add quite a bit to the army. Would they add more than the fells? Probably, but I'm not totally sure on that one.
Megadeth hasn't quit - he WLs every week in Tualatin, and plays at my house every other Sunday! He's just really busy right now, and doean't go play as often as he did.
This adds a bounder, and a rammer in place of the fell. The bounder has tougness, along with 1/2 your army, providing a good anti-ram method. You've got a ML Gun as well, with possible double ram (30").
i have also thought of the sislith tracker, but 5 in. charge and a low defenceisnt to appealing. id rather have the fell reaper, 7 in. charge and toughness with the same atack. plus, its really hard to find those.
one more thing, why havent i had a rateing yet? did i for get something?
Just to clarify, the Tracker is the bounding varient, with 5 bound, 10 range, 16 defense with toughness, and 3 damage. The Charging Necropolis Sect mount is the Nightmare reaper, not the fell.
