Also, amusingly, my Black Guard *are* the old axe-wielding dudes.

Thanks for this. Not super familiar with AoS but I bought the “Cities ..” book and had the feeling that GW probably nerfed any model over ten years old. It’s their MO and one of the reasons I rage quit. Recently I’ve been watching Ash on GmG and actually want to try the new ed … I just don’t want to spend any money until I’ve played a bit. Sigh. Ah well … I’ll go through with my list and see how I like it. If I do … I’ll probably buy Dominion play stomcast 🤷‍♂️

Hello Group Mind ((TL/DR version of this post: help me, effectively a newbie (I last played WH in 2012), put together a 1500 point dark elf (aelf?) list. Skip to the last paragraph to see my initial list, please critique.)) After a seven year rage quit, I think I’m ready to try AoS 3e. I want to take my old army - Dark Elves - and make them AoS complaint. The think is I don’t want to invest any more cash than I already have (at least now), and I’d like to be at least be kind of competitive (if possible). I want to make a 1500 point list from the ground up, at least to start. What I have in my collection is as follows: Sorceress on black dragon One unbuilt black dragon and rider kit One 10 man unit a spears and one 30 man unit a spears 7 dark riders One 10 man unit of Xbows and one 20 unit of Xbows one twenty man unit of Corsairs A ridiculous number of Cold One cav (more than 30) 10 executioners 30 black guard 2 Hydras An assortment of characters: at least 2 sorceresses (and a sorcerer! That’s how old some of this army is ..) and seven or eight assassins (and a Beast-Lord on manticore who’ll never see the battlefield again 🤬) Other units like (lots of) witch elves, artillery, and skirmishers which don’t have rules anymore or I can’t take in a CoS list. So honestly, my first idea for a list is something like a Dark Lord on Dragon (300), 2 10 man Cold One Cav (300 X 2), 2 hydras (170 X 2), 2 sorceresses (160) and a unit of dark shards (100) for 1500 points. How does this list sound? Also, if you’re not already bored of my post, what would you do next for another 500 points? Thanks so much in advance everybody!!
