I have 2 armies here that I wanna try out.... I need some educated opinions on it.... I don't wanna hear the statements that have been said a zillion times like "beware of Storm Gale!!"

Army #1

Drakor - 110
w/ Fireshield - 21

Boneshard - 46
w/ Decapitator - 31

Sauria - 28

Werewolf** - 28

Marrow - 28

Imp** - 6

Total - 298


Army #2

Drakor - 110

Kyma - 29
w/ Snow's Fuser Rifle - 46

Sauria - 28

Werewolf** - 28

Marrow - 28

I have 31 points left over.... I was considering putting Decapitator or Fireshield on Drakor.... any suggestions?

Note: Whichever army I decide on... after the release of Dark Riders.... i'll be replacing the Werewolf** with Vitrus

Bottom line... I wanna use Drakor and Sauria... period

I played th Boneshard already and I have to admit. He´s awesome! I personally prefer him with a priest sydin for leadership and hex, but that´s me. This combos great with the decap too, so try it sometime maybe. :) I would definitely go with the first.
You can still adjust towards your meta by changing the Marrow into another wolf. I personally would only play him if you can await some techun´s or else he will not come to ful potential.

The reason i'm going with Marrow over another Wolf is because Wolves will be banned soon and I don't wanna get too used to him. I should just replace the Wolf I am using for Vitrus.

Yes. I see your point. But I would not recommend replacing the one you already have with a fragile autodamage wonder. :) As long as you may use wolfes I´d suggest using them :) At least I would not use a fragile figure as Virtrus beneath one like Marrow. It´s your choice, but I think you need someone who can take it and dish it out, as Boneshard will be in front to battle, and Drakor very likely too.

The thing about Vitrus.... sure... hes only 3 slots.... but I can DT him into battle.... next turn... push to Ram you... Vitrus dies... Summon brings him back... repeat

Yet... he could be taken out earlier by an attack.... yet then you'll suffer a click from Retaliation. And by having 3 slots... hes still good for cheap autodamage. I could use Ram Warriors....

Stick with vitrus, lol. Also, boneshard is best IMO with either galeshi sunsword or souldrinker. Maybe a bit too costly for you, but it works. Trust me.

I do agree... I like Sunsword.... but I like Decapitator because it increases Speed, Attack, Defense AND Damage.... for only 31pts

1 thing I noticed is that Fireshield really onlt works well on :mi: units like Caldera or Orien II since they get the bonus w/o the negative. And Boneshard is nasty with the Sunsword, not being able to be shot + the terrify makes him a rather nasty little monster...sort of liek Death and Death's Horse combo.....

I'll give Sunsword a shot and see how it works. You think Death is a badass.... we have yet to see Famine, Pestilence and War :O

i am a new player, so i dont know mutch about ranking armies, hope 2 learn in time :)

mi first army is:

3XZombie centaur * (3x24)
2XOrc warbeast ** (2x47)
1xcrusader priest * (35)
1x blood shaman * (34)
2x vampiric Sk ** (2x29)

total: 293

i use the ZC and the OW to stop ranged attackers and to catch the middle objective, the blood shaman to heal ou force re-rolls and the crusader priest to put the ZC and the V sk back in play. the V sk are for defending the crusader from a distance where i can get them to force the ranged attackers to close range.

hoping some help from u all.

1st army good! Good to use decapitor with not a to high-cost unit.

2nd army --> Kyma with snow's rifle? the relic costs more than the fig does, maybe you could use the relic with a better shooter.

Thats the thing.... Kyma is great because shes so cheap. By herself... shes got a 9 ranged attack for 2 damage.... and an 8" range. With SFR on her... it increases her ranged attack to 12... the 2 damage doesn't change and it gives her an extra 40" of range. The thing about SFR is that sometimes it reduces most figures damage.... but not Kyma. SFR is a great relic and to be able to use it so cheap is great.
