Ok I havnt played conquest yet but I am planning to start, I have seen some awesome conquest armies out their, this one however
I dont feel is one of them quite yet. But im givin it a shot and would appreciate some input and suggestinons.
Its designed around the fact that in conquest their are alot of big formations as well as big pieces so this army has some big guns(heiro, corphy, magus, & Host)to take them down, and alot of Flame Lightning, Most of which is enchanced or multiple shots to obliterate formations. The KI formation(and Krugg) is the armies melee force and the Pally Prince heals my heirophant and corpheus. The Corrupted Priest flys around healing once the battle gets heated up. The shades of course are for harassment and blocking LOS.
Its 1200 exactly and has plenty of movement actions.
Thanks for reading, please offer advice and suggestions.
Lose Corphy. He's way too glass jawed to be truly effectiv in Conquest. Solonovi Striker can serve you better or even better another Host. You have tons of Formation busting which is fantastic though I think you should remove the Amotep Gunners in Favor of more Troll Gunners. This way Mortars can't give you a hard time. The Magus will give you the command you need but since you don't have any need for levitation look for alternate commanders. You could probably drop him and the Hierophant for Demiphant, Eremohn The Strong, and have points free for another inexpensive commander or better yet to free up points for those Troll gunners I suggested.
I made some changes to the army which I think make it alot better.
I think Corpheus is far better than the striker for this army because he has 3 shots of f/l vs. the strikers 1. I personally dont have a striker anyway. As for dropping the heirophant to add more troll gunners I just dont see it happening he is to good a figure in higher point games. You mentioned corpheus being glass jawed which he is but thats why i have the pally prince the games most stable healer, the Demiphant is very glassjawed and no where near as useful as heirophant. Thanks for the suggestions though,
definately try to add in a grave robber or something with necromancy.
i would personally loose the shades.
if yo uwant blockiers or harassrs put in some crystal protectors for LI and Healing.
you have 60 points w/ the shades. i would add in a HEG.
also remember in conquest movement formation s may consist of up to 10 figs so you could join the host/enhancer formation to the magus / gunner formation
I would also consider taking out heirophant unless you really liek him because you aslready ahev enough formation buster in it. consider a chariot and a sweepr to take out big uniques. there snothing like 14 inch charge to add to any figure in the game (using KI chariot)
but it looks good as it is. be wary of ML ram as you will see a lot of it in conquest., not as bad in smaller games but yo uknow
First off thanks for all the suggestions so far, they have all been taken into consideration. However I agree that shades are essential in this army as well as in all mage knight, its very important to be able to tie up opposing figures to eith save your butt or buy time. I think that talins point about corpheus being killed in a single shot, the same goes for heirophant. So I have been thinking of dropping the two as well as the palidan prince for a great fire dragon, Of course i would have to alter the army slightly more than just dropping the 3 figs.
Im not sure though I would like to get some more feedback on what everyone has to say about it.
Since you want to drop Paladin Preist why not drop him, corphy, Rivenguard, Infantry Captain, and the Hiero for 1x *** Heavy Lancer since in conquest that formation can move 12 with out a force marcher. Now you have 335 points a little closer to a dragon. Take the Troll Formation and make them all * Troll Artys(since you will have the dragon for F/L, and the artys have a longer range I think.) 33 points away. Down grade some demi's and maybe make the shaman * and you should have it, or jsut ditch the Krugg for the 33 points, and upgrade some shades to fill it in.
