Waiyuren Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Hey all, I'll be taking my daughter along to a local 1k tournament soon, but she's having some trouble putting a list she likes together. Her only concrete choice so far is that it must be built around her Anointed Frostheart Phoenix as the tank... I don't play order, and most of her stuff is tangentially purchased or in the case of the stormcast, a 2nd hand army picked up cheap... I've no real clue what's good or not, and wondered if some kind souls could give her some advice i could pass along? ? A complete list of her guys; Frostheart Phoenix Oldblood on carnosaur Scar vet on carnosaur Scar vet on cold one Skink star priest Sorceress on black dragon Archmage Lord castellant Lord celestant Lord relictor Knight venator Knight azyros 20 skinks 20 saurus warriors 10 gladeguard 10 liberators 10 judicators 15 saurus knights 5 chameleon skinks 12 aetherwings 1 gyrocopter 5 decimators 5 protectors 2 concussors, or fulminators, or tempestors 1 gryph hound 3 vanguard palladors 3 hurricane captors 9 longstrike raptors Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

Waiyuren Posted April 1, 2018 Author Share Posted April 1, 2018 I was thinking maybe; Phoenix Skink star priest Relictor 20 skinks 5 judicators 2 tempestors 3 longstrikes If I'm reading the rules right, the priest, relictor, and tempestors can stack their -1 to hit on something in range of all of them, or spread it out.

If you are playing Matched Play, you need 2 Battleline to be a legal list, Judicators are only Battleline for pure Stormcast. So I'd switch Judicators for Liberators or Gladeguard and get some more mages in there to buff the Phoenix. Archmage definitely (is he on a horse..? If not, perhaps find a way to get him a mount.) Maybe the Sorceress too for a bit of a monster mash list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her spell and the breath attack seem a little underwhelming for 300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her spell and the breath attack seem a little underwhelming for 300. She's...ok. At 1000 points, I would probably avoid her, but mages are good to combo with the Phoenix. A Loremaster would make the Phoenix extra killy. But definitely worty trying the Archmage, his spell can protect multiple things and he can anchor your army. Focus on speed for a buffed and fast moving ball of death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd keep the Phoenix up even longer, provided there's room for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
