Hey guys my escalation league is moving up a notch and I'm trying to build my army for the 1250 rounds. This is what I have so far. Please note I have access to a stardrake, celestant prime, fulminators, Gavriel and a knight venator at this moment. I could get some liberators and remove the lord arcanum as not to be forced to sequitors as well. Allegiance: Stormcast Eternals Leaders Lord-Arcanum on Gryph-Charger (240) - General Lord-Relictor (100) Knight-Azyros (100) Battleline 5 x Judicators (160) - Skybolt Bows - 1x Shockbolt Bows 10 x Sequitors (240) - Stormsmite Mauls and Soulshields - 4x Stormsmite Greatmaces Units 10 x Evocators (400) - 10x Grandstaves Total: 1240 / 1250 Extra Command Points: 0 Allies: 0 / 200 Wounds: 77 Would you guys do anything differently? Thanks guys!

Thanks this makes a lot more sense to me now. I feel like this probably won't be used in my first game of escalation concidering its only 750 pts and you can only scion in half your units. Unfortunately my first game I'll be running 10 sequitors and 5 judicators which makes it impossible for me to scion in the group of 10 seq's.

Yeah I just read up on it and I'm starting to understand much more. I'm still at a loss though. I've been trying to understand exactly how Gavriel gives you a guaranteed charge and how to use it properly. His rules say he adds +3 to a charge roll to anyone within 9" and I read somewhere that this stacks with the army alliegance ability so it brings it to +6. I believe the trick is to move him up and deep strike sequitors into his range and then charge them? I guess I'm just struggling to understand why +6 makes this a guaranteed charge when reading the charging rules the only thing that implies a fail is if you don't end up within 1/2 inch of a enemy model. Sorry for the big noobiness I'm pretty clueless. Hopefully after my first game next week I'll have a much firmer grasp on the rules and tactics of the game.

I guess I'll be running that? Haha very, very new. I don't have many more complete units unfortunately. I got the soul wars box so evocators were not complete I have 3. Basically what I own is Soul Wars + gavriel + sequitor easy to build + judicators (10) and I do have a start collecting vanguard so 5 hunters 3 palladors 3 gryph hounds and lord Aquilor.

Hey guys I was wondering if I could get some tips / feedback / advice for my upcoming first ever game of Age of Sigmar! I've joined an escalation league at a local shop near me and the first round is 750pts this is the line up I've decided to go with. I really have 0 experience so anything you think may be worth mentioning would be of great help. Allegiance: Order Leaders Lord-Arcanum on Gryph-Charger (240) - General Gavriel Sureheart (100) Battleline 5 x Judicators (160) - Skybolt Bows 10 x Sequitors (240) - Stormsmite Mauls and Soulshields Total: 740 / 1000 Extra Command Points: 5 Allies: 0 / 200 Wounds: 42

So I am a brand new player in Warhammer. I have read a lot of the books and played the games ( blood bowl actually introduced me to the franchise way back when ) I finally decided to take the plunge and find a new hobby! I picked up my first box the day Soul Wars released. I was a little hesitant on the soul wars starter box because of the price and me not really knowing exactly what I was doing or if I would even enjoy this so I grabbed the Start Collecting Vanguard! set as my first. Well let's just say I was hooked the second I started gluing those models together and painting them. I grabbed the Vanguard set because while talking with the guys at the shop and doing my own little research I had read the Vanguard box was quite complete in the way that the units it fields are all useable, no odd numbers. Couple of weeks later my wife bought me the Tempest of Souls box which I went back with and got the souls wars box because I was going to buy the book anyways and I'm completely addicted. So now I'm at a little bit of a crossroads and I'm not sure which way to go. I'd like to start playing soon and I know I'm not going to a hardcore competition but I would still like to be somewhat viable. With what I've read Vanguard seems to be outdated and falling behind compared to the new Sequitors and Evocators. I love my Vanguard models they are my first paints and I feel like I did a good job on them. I like their style but I also want to be realistic and make sure the first army I spend this much time and money on is going to be atleast a viable option to win against some common match ups. I was checking out Vanguard style builds and came to a conclusion that something like Allegiance: Order Leaders Lord-Aquilor (200) General Lord-Relictor (100) Neave Blacktalon (120) Knight-Venator (120) Battleline 5 x Vanguard-Hunters (120) - Boltstorm Pistols and Shock Handaxes 5 x Vanguard-Hunters (120) - Boltstorm Pistols and Shock Handaxes 5 x Judicators (160) - Skybolt Bows - 1x Shockbolt Bows Units 5 x Judicators (160) - Skybolt Bows - 1x Shockbolt Bows 3 x Vanguard-Palladors (200) - Boltstorm Pistols and Starstrike Javelins 3 x Vanguard-Palladors (200) - Boltstorm Pistols and Starstrike Javelins 3 x Vanguard-Raptors with Hurricane Crossbows (140) 3 x Vanguard-Raptors with Hurricane Crossbows (140) 3 x Aetherwings (50) Battalions Blacktalon's Shadowhammers (160) Total: 1990 / 2000 Extra Command Points: 1 Allies: 0 / 400 Wounds: 111 Or with something that seems more conventional these days and going for a 20 stack of sequitors with 10 evocators lord Arcanum ect. I realize this is a personal preference type of deal but since I am brand new and absolutely do not have a firm grasp on rules or tactics / army comps I feel like some c/c would be quite good for me. Anything can help right now and I want to thank you all in advance and say sorry for such a long first post here!
