Thanks in advance SG they're two separate kits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid_Nine Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 So what has been the preferred leader for your warband? I started out liking the ishlaen, but now I think I like the morrsarr guard a bit more. I like the reach of the spear quite a lot, and it made my leader pretty survivable when I make people waste activations getting to him.

In my experience it is a trade off, however the Morrsarr leader, is slightly better in most cases.

Acid_Nine Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Right now my list is; morsarr leader x3 ishlaen guard x2 reavers. very small model count, but the eels are really tough, and when high tide comes around they hit like trucks. Reavers are just there to harass and skirmish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reeve Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 This is what my Warband currently looks like; 1 Ishlean Prince 1 Ishlean Guard 1 Tidecaster Merc 3 Thralls 3 Reavers I’m a few games into the campaign so soon I’ll be able to add another thrall. I’ve also played with the Soulscryer and his triple is amazing if you roll well... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramer Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Got a SC Idoneth from my girlfriend so she can play warcry with me (and as such it's her fault I will end up buying Catacombs 😂) She loves the eels and the Soulrender. So I'm thinking Morrsarr Prince 260 Soulrender 150 Ishlean Eel 200 Morrsarr Eel 195 2x Thrall 160 Total 965 Is that playable? Or just too little bodies? (she loves to dive, so no surprise she ended up like the fish elves the most ) And if so, in your opinion, should I just bite the bullet for some reavers? Or just go for more thralls, play a few games and when we get around to actually campaign play add the reavers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the leaks of the new Warcry books, it looks like all the hero/mercenaries will be converted into leaders of warbands instead. So in future it looks like you'll be unable to run the Morsarr Prince and the Soulrender (ofc, you can just say the Prince is a regular one and I'm sure that's fine). So your line-up might change in future. I personally like playing warbands (and armies) which have a bit of everything, so I think certainly the Reavers would add an interesting dynamic to the warband. That being said, if you're unsure how long her interest will last, or tight on budget, I think that it's fine to start off without them. The army already has enough interesting bits as you've got flying speedy eels and some cheaper guys to fight with. Besides, if you're worried about bodies you can always drop one of your other Eels and put in more Thralls to increase your body count. And you don't need to buy the Reavers boxed set to do that, so you've already got a bit of flexibility in what you can run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of option. didnt know about the allies turning into leaders. my main ‘worry’ is that the first match up cypher lords (just the one box) vs the idoneth turns into a non match in some way. Kinda understood the aos army warbands were a bit overpowered vs the Warcry warbands (but a second box helps in that respect.) but so far nobody has responded saying their is no way that the cypher lords can kill the eel or something. So I’m happy. And I’ll likely paint op 2 eels, 1 of each, the soulrender and 5 thralls. that way I can later let her decide on the last eel. And paint that together with a box of reavers and lothan. (Which hasn’t got rules but the pointy finger dudes rules match close enough, the shoal quad being a nice representation of the octopus going loco) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
