My friend wants me to play Aos, but my competitive edge has been off for years.
He sent me a list that is "funziez" and might randomly win or lose games:
Allegiance: SkaventideLeadersArch-Warlock (160)- GeneralWarlock Engineer (100)Warlock Engineer (100)Warlock Engineer (100)Warlock Engineer (100)Warlock Engineer (100)Battleline3 x Stormfiends (260)3 x Stormfiends (260)3 x Stormfiends (260)War MachinesDoomwheel (160)Doomwheel (160)Doomwheel (160)Endless Spells / Terrain / CPsBell of Doom (40)Vermintide (40)Total: 2000 / 2000
He also mentioned that I could squeez this in $300.00 and have a blast playing it.
Is it worth looking into / can I randomly show up to a tournament and still play this? (I like the very low model count for transportation )
I actually had a question about that.
why would you take one big unit of bounders / hoppers "15" if I can do 3x5
the mangler boss affects all units within 18" and you are less likely to lose models due to moral or single target spell debuff or "roll a die per each model in unit and MW them"
2nd shot at a full out hopper list:
LeadersLoonboss on Mangler Squigs (300)- GeneralLoonboss on Mangler Squigs (300)Madcap Shaman (80)Fungoid Cave-Shaman (90)Battleline5 x Squig Hoppers (90)5 x Squig Hoppers (90)5 x Squig Hoppers (90)Units5 x Boingrot Bounderz (100)5 x Boingrot Bounderz (100)5 x Boingrot Bounderz (100)5 x Boingrot Bounderz (100)BehemothsMangler Squigs (240)Mangler Squigs (240)Endless SpellsScrapskuttle's Arachnacauldron (50)Scuttletide (30)
Total: 2000 / 2000
Wow! this does help! so from my understanding 45 boingrot bounderz would be the sweet spot (900pts) and a single Loongler boss (300pts)
could you run the graph on the damage expected from buffed and unbuffed Mangler?
oh god, you do make sense and its sad,
15 BB generate 7.5mw on charge with 30 wounds 4+
the real question is: do you 3x5 Bounderz or 1x15 Bounderz
what would be advantages/disadvantages (if you don't mind explaining to a newb like me)
so I guess madcap to fill the list for nightshroud + squig lure T1
otherwise 2x boxes of hoppers and 2x boxes of manglers and just build them duplicate
I was looking to resist but I guess I cannot, looking on advise for my first 1000pt list (and shopping list at the same time):
300 Loonboss on Mangler Squigs
80 Fungoid
90 5x Boingrot Bounderz
90 5x Boingrot Bounderz
100 5x Squig Hoppers
100 5x Squig Hoppers
240 Mangler Squigs
1000pts
Alternatively I was looking into taking out Fungoid Manger for 2nd Loonboss on Mangler but magic seems just too good.
