[AoS 3rd - Idoneth Deepkin discussion]

@vinnyt thanks for the advise and reassurance about the list! I have taken a look at some of your other posts and have a better idea about how I should setup going into the event. Thanks for the detailed breakdown of the scenarios as well!

 

 

[AoS 3rd - Idoneth Deepkin discussion]

Hey I have seen the quality advise that has been coming from this thread and was wondering if I could seek some guidance.

I am about to head to my first event with the following battleplans which I have been struggling to find paths to victory with my army:

• Apex Predators
• Power In Numbers
• Feral Foray

Below is the list I have been running:

Allegiance: Idoneth Deepkin
 - Enclave: Fuethan
 - Grand Strategy: Dominating Presence
 - Triumphs: Bloodthirsty
LEADERS
Eidolon of Mathlann, Aspect of the Storm (330)**
- Artefact: Cloud of Midnight 
Isharann Tidecaster (105)**
- General
- Command Trait: Master of Magic 
- Lore of the Deeps: Vorpal Maelstrom
UNITS
2 x Akhelian Allopexes (250)*
- Retarius Net Launcher
- Razorshell Harpoon
2 x Akhelian Allopexes (250)*
- Razorshell Harpoon
- Retarius Net Launcher
10 x Namarti Reavers (115)**
10 x Namarti Reavers (115)**
10 x Namarti Thralls (120)**
3 x Akhelian Ishlaen Guard (155)**
3 x Akhelian Ishlaen Guard (155)**
BEHEMOTHS
Akhelian Leviadon (380)**
- Mount Trait: Ancient
CORE BATTALIONS
*Hunters of the Heartlands
**Battle Regiment
TOTAL: 1975/2000 WOUNDS: 119
LEADERS: 2/6 BATTLELINES: 3 (3+) BEHEMOTHS: 1/4 ARTILLERY: 0/4
ARTEFACTS: 1/1 ENDLESS SPELLS & INVOCATIONS: 0/3 ALLIES: 0/400
REINFORCED UNITS: 2/4 DROPS: 3

It still seems to be struggling in the test games I have been playing with the scenarios against Stormcast and Legion of the first prince. Below is a list of the models I have access to and was wondering if there were any changes I should be making:

• 1x Eidolon (aspect of the storm)
• 1x Isharann Tidecaster
• 1x Volturnos 
• 4x Allopexes
• 20x Reavers
• 20x Thralls
• 3x
• 6x Ishlaen Guard
• 6x Morrsarr Guard
• 2x Leviadon 
• 1x Lotann
• 1x Soulrender

I have seen some use of the soulscryer online and would considering purchasing one if the upside is that important.

At the moment I am really looking for advise on any and all aspects as I seem to be losing a lot and hoping there are some improvements I can take away to start edging out some wins. Understand that it is hard to provide gameplay feedback without battle reports (or any detail really) so will try and capture notes / pictures from my next game :).

Is there any armys that Idoneth particularly struggle against and are there any tactics that can be employed to  combat that?

Thanks!
