The Swarm of the Lightning Festival Triple Cheese Pizza Swiss Army
The Swarm of the Lightning Festival Triple Cheese Pizza Swiss Army
Credits to my Philippine MK Family for helping me improve this army with series of revisions and playtesting. A Swiss Army that aims to have an ANSWER for most army types pitted against it. It is a combination of all the best possible and efficient multifaction members and relics to fused in a 500pt army.
Optional Domain: Time of Mists or Death
48pts Death Seekers Adventuring Company
99pts Kenaz Stoneheart
60pts Book of Lightning
29pts Khan Podo
49pts Fys’okro
40pts Book of Control:
Word of Refusal- Bookmarked Spell
Archer’s Aim
Disbelieve
Call Familiar: Khan Podo
40pts * Oracle of Rokos
45pts Codex of Light:
Arcane Sight- Bookmarked Spell
Form Construct: Priest Sydin
Call Familiar: Blackwing
Priest Sydin ( 49pts Form Construct )
43pts Necromantic Bonestaff
Command Phase:
Declare Familiars: Khan Podo and Blackwing
Copy Leadership by Oracle of Rokos from Sydin
Copy Demoralized and be healed by command roll
Command roll for a 6th action
If Applicable, Command Heal Demoralized Oracle, Podo, Sydin
Necromantic Bonestaff any eliminated opponent and place it anywhere the battlefield
Remove hex token
Attack Phase:
For the Succeeding turns, Double time Khan Podo( do not move him literally) or move action him until he reaches his third click for 20 defense
If Applicable, Fys’okro casts browses and casts Archer’s Aim next turn to Kenaz
If Applicable, Oracle casts Arcane Sight to Kenaz
Book of Lightning to Opponents Healers then Spell Casters then Bodyguards then Unique if applicable
Familiar Blackwing 5-6 Infinite Attack. Surge-Augment to 10 attack- Deathseekers- rinse and repeat
Hex by Sydin
Imp moves straight for Objective
Summon by Fys’okro
Magic healing by Fys’okro
For tough 2 figure/one figure armies- if BOL with Arcane sight and Archer’s Aim fail, hit and run or use kyte strategy and secure objectives. Grimlins secures farthest objective, imp secures nearest objective, and main army secures middle objective. Escape and Breakaway and Doubletime. Harass and Soar.
For Medium to Large armies- Kill as needed using the necromantic Bonestaff, Book of Lightning and the other cheesy moves.
End Phase:
Browse Used Spells
Removed unpushed action tokens
Remove reanimated figure
Opponents turn:
Standby for counterspelling, use Fys’okro’s Word of Refusal.
Formation: 36x36
Deployment Area: Case to Case Basis
Imp stays on the far left side and gets the objective token place on the far left side by you.
the pentagon five( oracle, podo, sydin, kenaz and fys'okro) stays on the far right with sydin and oracle facing kenaz and fys'okro for leader ship purposes.
the 2 blackwings and grimlin stays on the middle to harrass and surge.
use necromantic bonestaff to make your opponents corpse your second army for augmented Offensive capabilities
Cheesy Moves:
BOL
NecroBonestaff
Khan Podo’s Defend
Augment Deathseekers with Infinite Call Familiar
Leadership
IMP for the WIN
Suggested Improvements:
Turajan tome to be equipped by fys’okro then gives 2 attack bonus to kenaz for alternative counterspelling.
Third Call Familiar- remove word of refusal
Put in disenchant, deny,- remove word of refusal and archers aim.
Phalanx for 21 Defense
Weaknesses:
Relics to Shutdown BOL
Firestorm
Swarm of the Damned armies
Strong spell casting armies with Turajan Tome.
Mind Tapping Command for healing demoed figures is, IMO, quite brilliant. The only other thing I think that might be able to really hurt this army would be something like a Mask of Mysteries army. Pop in and either lay waste to the Pentagon 5, or (heaven forbid) get 1st activation and eliminate your familiars before you can declare them. Perhaps something that can possibly nullify hindering and concealing terrain would be wise...
thanks sir warwolf, by the way, i just found out that the spell archers eye can make my BOL hit anyone even in base contact with my friendly figs by using precision so ill take out word of refusal and put in an archers eye and centaurs gait for kenaz to have charge in emergency cases. this also helps me by pass kosian shield tome :)
