Piggybacking from my previous post (located here)
I’ll be talking about the future plans with my Dispossessed army.
I’m not beyond a little net-listing at this point as I drag
myself back up off the ground with this army and as such I’ll be taking a list
which has proved itself able to compete against some lists. Keep in mind that this list is over a year
old, but was used to skillful effect down in the Australian tournament scene.
Warden King
Runesmith x2
Cellestant
Prime (Ally)
10 Warriors
with GW/Shield, FC x2
20
Longbeards with GW/Shield, FC
30
Ironbreakers with FC
20
Irondrakes with FC
10
Irondrakes with FC
1 Command Point
The list centers around using the army’s buffs in unison,
doing essentially the same thing I used to do with my old list. Buffing and then blasting away with a heavy
shooting unit. True the Irondrakes
aren’t as good in hand to hand as the Quarrelers were, but they are getting
their double shot off with fewer numbers in better armor and with better
statistics to hit/wound/rend. Plus,
there are 2 of these units, and while yes, the smaller unit can lose its double
shot with 1 wound, I feel like the chances are that the opponent will probably
lose focus on those until they get their one double volley off and force the
opponent to remember it. The Prime adds
in not only a nice bit of a combat buff in that if you hold him in the heavens
for a turn or two he can come down and start just murdering things, but even
once he’s on the ground he has that damned comet he throws around. So, he provides both mobility, threat and
damage output which is nice. The pickaxe
speaks for itself letting you bomb your big unit of Drakes across the board, or
if you’re playing against an aggressively attacking army, perhaps disappearing a
small unit to claim a later game objective.
I’ve yet to play with this list, but it’s my starting point and I’ll get
some games in and work from there.
As of this post itself, the army is officially on round
bases and I’ll start trying to get games in relatively soon. Hopefully I’ve already gotten one in by the
time this post rolls live. I’ve also
gotten a good way into getting all my movement trays completed which considering
I’m using Bottlecaps is nice. You should
really check these out if you haven’t seen them on my Twitter. What a great idea, and WAY cheaper than buying
MDF trays from a manufacturer basically anywhere. Besides, if you drink bottled beer all you
have to do is not throw your caps away.
The next full Episode this month I’ll be going over our Ironweld Arsenal
allies, maybe even the old Compendium stuff too, so keep an eye out for that
post in the near future. Thanks for
reading.
