RoyalDachshund Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 So ladies and gets, after selling my Ironjawz (didnt like the pure just go straight and fight and my local meta is 4x Tzeentch, 6x Sylvaneth and I also have a BCR army) I've turned my attention to death. Because it's the second cool thing in AoS. I'll like to start at 1k - 1.2k (both for small tournaments / local campaign) and then up to 2k points window. I seriously have no leanings toward any type of death. There can be ghosts, vampires, zombies. Any ideas where to go? I don't want another Ironjawz, give me something spicy! I wan't some magic, some cunning tactits etc Also, Nagash is still a very bad purchase for 2k points? I know GH2017 is almost here, but with all those leaks we can make a safe bet.

Black_Fortress_Immortal Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Do you want a horde army? FEC/Deathrattle can do that well. Elite low-model count army? Deathlords/Soulblight can do that too. Mixed Death work(ed) because of the strength of the Allegiance Traits/Items, but with GHB2 around the corner with updated Allegiance bonuses, it's hard to say and is anyone's guess.

Avatar Rage Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Personally I am really enjoying deathrattle units supported by summoned ghosts. Ghost are super useful in a death army against units with a lot of rend. Basically just pick what you like the look of and role with that. Chances are it will probably work.

Get a few units of skeletons (max), unit of graveguard, and unit of black knights, wight king, and grab a Necromancer + one of the Deathlords as an "ally" for the new system in GHB2. You can have a unit of 40 skeletons doing 320 attacks (Vanhel's + Command ability) per turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalDachshund Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Sounds good but for now I'm aiming 1k-1.2k points and there will be 200 (maybe?) points for allies, 400 is for 2000 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there's only set rules for 1000/2000/2500 so in-between is up to you and your buddies. If you only want 1000, then don't bother with a Deathlord. At 1000pts you could still run the Legion of Death battalion with a Necromancer for a 2 drop list, which also gives you the benefit of free movement in hero phase, and more regen capabilities. Up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalDachshund Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Guess I'm gonna see how Start Collecting and other bundles looks like price-wise / what I need - wise and pick something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
