Hope it is allowed to post some pictures of a game here^^. Played a 1000 point game yesterday against woodelves with some wanderers. Wanted to play daemons with the new legion of the first prince, but the urge two play with my zombiedragons was bigger .
Here's the list of my opponnent:
Allegiance: Order Wayfinder (80) - General - Trait: Strategic Genius - Artefact: Phoenix Stone Waywatcher (120) 10 x Eternal Guard (130) 10 x Eternal Guard (130) 5 x Wardancers (60) 5 x Waywatchers (80) 5 x Waywatchers (80) 5 x Waywatchers (80) 5 x Waywatchers (80) 5 x Waywatchers (80) 5 x Waywatchers (80) Total: 1000 / 1000
and here is my army
Allegiance: Flesh Eater Courts - Grand Court: Gristlegore Varghulf Courtier (160) - General - Trait: Savage Strike Varghulf Courtier (160) - Artefact: Ghurish Mawshard Royal Zombie Dragon (300) Royal Zombie Dragon (300) Total: 920 / 1000
80points down, but I didn't know what to buy instead. I have very few Flesheater stuff, cause I only collect rnd miniatures. I also love monster mash armies so I often collect only the bigger models =).
The Varghulf between the two Dragons is my general, the unpainted one is the one with the artefact. I only had 4 models to deploy so I decided that the woodelves should and some of them where to far away for shooting in their first turn.
Mission was to hold objectives with your heroes, 3 objectives where on the board.
I got my Varghulfs on a objective each and could hold it the first round.
Second round the elves blasted one of my varghulfs away and I killed a bunch of them with my dragons. My general hid behind a ruin camping his objective. One of the woodelf heroes got onto an objective the other run towards a second one but couldn't reach it yet.
Third turn I killed a bunch more elves but my dragons got very low on hp and I could kill the second hero who was running toward the second objective. At this time my left dragon only had 1 hp left and the other I think 4.
Fourth turn the woodelves killed my general and I couldn't score anymore (had 3 vp at this point), cause I left my objective the turn before to charge a unit of waywatchers, to free up my dragon. Both dragons were really low, one on 1 hp the other on two. Only chance to get a draw maybe was to kill the waywatcher hero. Rolled three times a six with pestilental breath (hit, wound, dmg) and the elf was no more.
We called it a game here, but I think the rest of the waywatchers would have killed my dragons pretty soon and wipe me off the board.
Or do you think I would have had a chance to win?
Was a pretty cool game and a lot of fun to only play with 4 models against 50 or more XD
How would you expand my list onto 1500 points vanguard, but keeping the monster mash theme?
