So recently I've been doing decently against most armies (local meta includes Slaanesh, DoK, OBR etc) but I have never beaten the Idoneth player. I can't tell if it's just a horrible match up for us or if I just need to git gud.
Here is my list:
LEADERS
Clawlord (100) - Mighty Warlord - Command Trait : Verminous Valour
Grey Seer on Screaming Bell (240) - Lore of Ruin : Death Frenzy
Verminlord Warbringer (280) - General - Command Trait : Brutal Fury - Artefact : Things-Bane
Warlock Engineer (100) - Lore of Warpvolt Galvanism : More-more-more Warp Power!
UNITS
20 x Clanrats (120) - Rusty Blade
20 x Clanrats (120) - Rusty Blade
40 x Stormvermin (450) - Halberd
6 x Stormfiends (520)
1 x Warpfire Thrower (70)
The general tactic is the stormvermin, clawlord and warbringer hang out with the bell and the engineer + stormfiends go and wreck shop elsewhere, so I like to have minimum 2 threats on the board. Problem is the Idoneth player had 18 eels? Plus an eidolon and some guy that let them deepstrike and +3 to charge. They're already so fast that means he can sort of dictate when combat happens, and it was mostly on his terms. Baiting me out into turn 3 for high tide etc. Not sure how to counter this if anyone has ideas? The forgotten nightmares rule really puts a damper on one of the main damage outputs from the stormfiends too.
I need to beat this guy eventually so I need help! 😅
