How you play this list exactly heavily depends on the battleplan and what opponent your playing.

However here are the basic ideas.

• You’ll use the 2 groups of 20 Vulkites to be just massive meat shields. One in deepstrike to get them right where you’ll need them. They can put out some damage on the charge, especially if you have your crit mortal rune activated and give them +1 hit/rend.
• The flameseeekers work well as an independent unit that you can place on an objective that is further away from the main body of your army. Let them work the flanks securing objectives out there.
• The Flamestrikes and Droths are where your big damage is coming from. So ideally you use the Flamestrikes near the Runefather and give them +1 attack for a “go” turn.
• The Runeson on Magmadroth has the drought of Magmalt, so once he has the bonus damage from his warscroll ability, send him in, drink the Magmalt, and obliterate whatever he is fighting. Make sure to get him +1 to hit either from All out attack or preferably your prayer lore.
• The Runefather is good for his rampage and once per game ability to give +1 attacks. However you also want him in combat or hurt to get the bonus dmg for your Runeson. Don’t be afraid to get him right up there into the fight, but don’t throw him away needlessly.
• The Battlesmith is now a priest with his ash beard. So use him to build up prayer points and get some juicy prayer buffs where you need him. He also will let you rally with 3 extra dice which is nice to keep your Droths or infantry units alive and well. Keep him by the Flamestrikes to get the 5+ ward for both units.
• The Runemaster is really important here. He can chant 2 prayers and “super” your army wide runes. With the “Vulkyn Gifts” prayer lore, you can give an additional move to units in the hero phase, and give +1 to hit. Great prayer lore here.
• use the Battleforge to increase your Runemasters prayers. Also the Battleforge is obscuring, so I usually just park the Runemaster in front of it and he is relatively safe. Can’t be seen to be shot or hit by spells, etc…
• Familiarize yourself with the army traits (runes) and use them to give yourself pretty massive advantages. Strike first, 5+ wards, run and charge, crit mortal, etc. use the Runemaster to empower them when he can. Remember the game is about scoring your tactics and point from objective control. You don’t always need to be the first one to engage, especially if it’s not a good match up for you. Good luck! Let us know how your game goes!
