rokmonkey Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi! I've been following this forum for a while now and it's been really useful in helping me get started with aos! I have started off with ironjaws, but i'd like to build a bigger army, and love the options that mixed destruction throws up. I would really appreciate feedback on my 2k list idea before I make the jump and order more miniatures! 1 megaboss 140pts 1 moonclan shaman 60pts 1 warchanter 80pts 40 moonclan grots 240pts 2 fanatics 60pts 40 moonclan grots 240pts 2 fanatics 60pts 10 orc arrer boys 100pts 3 leadbelcher 160pts 3 leadbelcher 160pts 5 brutes 180pts 5 brutes 180pts 10 ardboys 180pts 1 rocklobber 100pts Ironfist 60pts 2000/2000 Thanks in advance.

Mohojoe Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hey Chris, welcome to the forums! Mixed destruction is indeed, super fun to play and gives you a lot of really fun options. Before we get too far into your list, what will you be using it for. Narrative, matched play or open play? A simpler question may be do you want it to follow a theme or are you looking to make the strongest list you can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokmonkey Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 I guess it will mostly be matched games. starting off at a local level but if i get any good at it i would go on to try some tournaments. I like the idea of having a vague theme, but mostly having units that are fun to play and hopefully relatively competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohojoe Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I would probably aim for something a bit similar to this: Allegiance: DestructionLeadersMoonclan Grot Shaman (60)Frostlord on Stonehorn (460)Huskard on Thundertusk (340)Battleline40 x Moonclan Grots (240)- Pokin Spears & Moon Shields40 x Moonclan Grots (240)- Pokin Spears & Moon Shields6 x Ogors (240)Units2 x Grot Fanatics (60)2 x Grot Fanatics (60)War MachinesGrot Spear Chukka (120)Grot Spear Chukka (120)Total: 1940/2000 The Ogors would be my choice for your third battleline however really you could cut and paste whatever you like to fit in there. Spear chukkas are great for closing your range and the thundertusk gives you an 18" deathray which I have found super handy in my games. Stonehorn is ridiculously tanky and can pump out damage too, I sorta feel they are both undercosted but currently they are what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokmonkey Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 thanks for that! The addition of the beastclaw monsters was definitely something that I should have had in there. I like the bonus from having a double spear chukka too! I thought leadbelchers looked like a cool idea but I take it they are not that good in reality?

I thought leadbelchers looked like a cool idea but I take it they are not that good in reality? They are alright. My list has three of them just to add a bit of ranged presence. They are however pretty expensive and you really want them in groups of 6. The range is also only 12" which is also the charge range so usually if they are in range they can be charged. The melee profile is quite nice as it has rend but its not worth the cost in points if you are buying them just for that. This is my list, its not perfect as its mostly using what I have. So far it works really well against armies without shooting however I reckon it will be pretty easily shot to bits. All the scenarios in my upcoming tournament revolve around catching an objective so it actually works fairly well at it. Not Super competitive level but enough to win me a few games.
