However the large onion might be hard to pull of with objectives all scattered around the table. An example army setup would be corsairs?
40 x Black Ark Corsairs (260) - Vicious Blade & Repeater Handbow 10 x Black Ark Corsairs (80) - Vicious Blade & Repeater Handbow 10 x Black Ark Corsairs (80) - Vicious Blade & Repeater Handbow 10 x Black Ark Corsairs (80) - Vicious Blade & Repeater Handbow
Total: 500 / 2000
you would pull a lot of your army points together just to stall an enemy unit. It seems to be a very defensive setup. So we should shield something very valuable shall we? Like 4 Warmachines or a high scoring mission objective. Also it would be great if the deeper layers of the onion could still contribute to the fight. Meaning 2" reach weapons or the Handbows of the Corsairs for example. Otherwise we spend so many of our points on Defence without using the units capabilities.
