Here is a special event that will hold after 10 hours in my local store, please give me advice!!

200 point, unlimited rules

Special rules:

I need a commender with max 30 points. No figure more then 40 points can be used in this special event.

At the beginning of each battle, role 2 dice to decide the special rules

2 City of Doom. No Special ability can be use in this land and all ability of Commander Figure are -1.
3 ¡V 4 Land of Cursed. No ability with Magic can be use in this land
5 ¡V 6 Land of Darkness. Follow all Darkness rule.
7 Plain. No terrain and modify.

12 City of Glory. At the beginning of each player turn, each figure is heal by 1 Click. All ability of Commander Figure are +1.


Here is my problem: what type of the army I should use?

Basically I think ML/Ram or Swarm/Charge will be a good choice. They will take advantage in the case 3-6. However the 8-9 Land of Cold condition maybe a big hurt since I have many figures in my army and hence my chance of getting "cold" will be increased.

Please Help Me !!!

play a couple of shamen with a Chaos Mage, then back it up with a bone toss formation.


Chaos Mage
2x*Shamen

3x*Skeletons
1x*Soul Stealer

Level 3 Autumn
1x***Imp


200 points even, should be fun for the scenario..

Looking at your limitations:

Commander at 30 pts max: = only one figure! The * Brass Commander at 27 pts.

No figures more than 40 pts.

The best 40 point figure IMO is the *** Warhatchet Krugg.

You add a firing formation of *** Amotep Gunners (3X24=72 pts)
Add a * Elite Surok Apprentice (18 pts)

Add Autum at level 2 for lev and heal (34pts)

You would have: 27+40+72+18+34=191.

You have 9 pts to add for harrasers and such. Imp maybe?

Well, this army is a modified swiss, You can shoot and you can hit. Lots of power hitters for their cost.

Moderately good range at 12" and a possible ram range of 20" If you get swarmed your guys can hit back pretty hard too. Plus a healer to boot.

Use good terrain placement, this army is pretty good.

Try it. Good luck.

You can have a *** imp at 8 pts. or

**Gob Vol. + Podo = 9 points.

I would Probably go for the iMp, just because it flies.

Your choices though

PMC

Thanks for the advice :)

The commender do not need to have command ability, any figure below 30 and lable it as commender is ok.

A.gunner *** 24x2
ESA *** 22
War Krugg*** 40
Autum level 2 34
+
Grave Robber * 14
detonating zombie ** 21x2

Is it a good idea?

PmartyC, you are forgetting that at 40 points or less, there is only one figure with higher than 12 range: Longbow Archer. Because of this, 12 range is supremely good, and Amoteps will dominate.

Or so you would think.

The obvious choice for this scenario is KI swarm. Almost all the figures in KI are under 40 points. FM your E@A's right up to the Amoteps and gut them like pigs (a better name for a dwarf).

oops.. didn't realize tat no >40 point figures allowed.
!

Use a lot of MS rammers (e.g. Warhatchett, Mino) coz, below 40, figs are most likely dont have toughness with it. Only few figs have it.

This scenario might as well read "Play KI Swarm and win."

Most of the things that hose KI swarm are over 40 points.

2: All you lose is Force March.
3-4: Doesn't hurt you.
5-6: Doesn't hurt you.
7: Doesn't hurt you.
8-9: May cause some trouble.
10-11: Doesn't hurt you.
12: How a KI swarm could possibly lose under those conditions is beyond me.

So you don't realistically have to worry about 14" range or exceedingly high defense, and only an 8-9 roll is going to hurt you much at all.

Yeah, KI swarm is golden. Expecially with Rivvengaurds.

10-11 really effects KI swarm. When they go to attack MR figures, they get hit back for 2 damage. ME with F/L will tear you apart.

The event was delayed for a few hours, more advice are welcome!!

It seems that the KI swarm(or swarm/charge) is the powerhorse in this event. The KI will have advantage except 8-9, btw, one figures made me annoyed is the Ironclad. with 18 defence and tougness that may cause problem to my charger/eaa, any good solution?

Three other army types that could be fun in this format:

1) Formation or two of Khamsin Peacekeeper with Dwarven Pikemen, Bombards, weak axe knights + a few mancatchers or huntsmen

2) Formation of weak heartseeker or bondmaker or soul stealer with two blue werebears, some red throttle worms, and war hatchetkruggs with a channeler, and two blue fell reapers.

3) Orc swarm w/ tough tribal brutes, taskmaster, and another orc swarm with launchers and snurga OR ten billion goblins with a tough ki devil running around and shockwaving things...

Oh, and I do have a solution to the Ironclad problem... throw in tough centaur lt or two with 11 charge!!
