Guys thanks for the comments! Much appreciated. @CommissarRotke Yep im not quite sure how the hunters will last with some more serious cavalery hitting them hard, like Morsarr Guard or some deadly heroes. Until now my local gamestore has only casual player, so on that level they did pretty well. Nevertheless I will consider some Sequitors for the next game.
@Kramer Glad to gave you a kick-start The battalion is still in the warhammer app, its also selectable in the warscroll builder with the new GHB 2019. Seems legit. I guess thats enough to convince me and some guys I play with. I even tested a 1250point list with neave, to give the battalion a first start and the Palladors were the STARS of the battle. With +1 Hit on Charge (shadowhammer), reroll 1s on hit (stormhost CV), they literally exploded into a group of liberators. No lib survived to tell the story But also Neave riding the aetheric winds and pushing everyone with 6" is real gem. Good Idea with the Zephyros - SoJ combo, but unfortunately the battalio insists on Neave. But very worthy for an 1k list I guess. The big battalion is my dream since I first saw it the narrative style of a full vanguard army is just awesome. 2k list on the point, with 101 wounds, the downside is the use of the hurrican crossbows ...such a pity Still definately worth a try. Besides the boni you mentioned, 1 singled drop (choose the 1st turn)!!, 3 extra CP and artefacts for the 3 battalions...hm definately worth a try.
I added a picture of my 1k list.. Neave is missing, finished the paint job two days ago
