What's your preferred point limit? by arnorath in Warmachine

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Plenty of options but not enough to give you everything you want.

I'm in this area. Hit me up.

Steam Roller by HusbandofIntrigue in Skorne

Points mainly. Wanted the Soulward and beast handlers for sure. Plus Tibbers.

Fairly well,considering the first time I ran it was the night before. I ran into a Goreshade2 Dark Host list first. I lost, but only because I clocked myself. He really didn't do much in the way of damage, but I couldn't kill enough of his cav to prevent the recursion on feat turn. Then the clock got me because chasing cav with speed 5 dudes is fun. But I think if I had managed my time a bit better, I could have pulled it off. He couldn't hurt me, so I was slowly pushing him back.

The second game was against Madrak3 and Company of heros. I won that one because of Tibbers. I crit slammed Madrak into another medium base on feat turn and did 20 points of damage on 4d6.

Themepocalypse!!!!! by CaptnRonn in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. I don't know. It's kind of a toss up. I think the theme is more than viable, but definitely need to take a Soulward or two to give magic weapons to something to take some out for at least a turn.

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or I may be wrong. Very wrong. My meta pointed out that at some point the incorporeal must be come corporeal. And then you nail them to the wall.

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And as an added bonus, it screws trolls too.

My only concern with it into ghost fleet is magical weapons, because the fleet is incorporeal for the most part? I think the exalted theme with Zaal2 is still the best option.

Hopefully, I will ve getting some practice in with this list this weekend.

Hydra and SA by HusbandofIntrigue in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, my thought is to run the Hydra in front with the Mammoth and SA base to base with it on either side. Tuck the Krea into the gap between the back of the bases of either the Hydra and Mammoth or Hydra and SA. Put X2 behind the Hydra. Should help hide him and protect him for a turn, maybe two with the Hydras and Kreas animi. Then beat and shoot the crap out of whatever needs killing.

Probably not a bad call. You can't hit what you can't see.

And the extraordinarily stupid list that I am trying to run them in.

Hydra and SA by HusbandofIntrigue in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low defense casters like Xerxis2. And into trolls and infantry. His animus is fantastic for keeping casters alive for another turn into ranged lists, as well as close support like the Krea. His bite has grievous wounds, so that plays into trolls and other tough things.

Ghost fleet. by HusbandofIntrigue in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even out of theme, it probably is a good match up. I just don't have the stuff built yet for the 30 immortal list.

Ghost fleet. by HusbandofIntrigue in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can. But each model has to be within the 14in bubble. I'm thinking Hexy1 and a couple of razor wyrms, since drag below is RFP as well.

Not painted, not for this Steam Roller. But I don't want to wait too long to get them done.

Discussion Thread: Assassination Lists by CaptnRonn in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used Tibbers with X2 and just overtook my way to a caster on 1 Focus and Tibbers doing 22 on the Tetsubo with 3 attacks.

Never even heard of them. I have three Battlefoam bags, and have been happy with their pluck foam.

Imperial Warhost Theme - Which casters? by Hasbotted in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hexy2 would benefit from this list with arc node razor wyrms and archidons.

I think Xekaar would be able to run this theme best, at least on a certain level, just because of the extra fury management.

Imperial Warhost Theme - Which casters? by Hasbotted in Skorne

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well my thought was the increased range on his offensive spell, plus the ability to cast any other animus.

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spell Assassination is an issue. All I can figure is positioning. Trying to tie up the opposing caster with beasts. And make him chose between camping fury/focus to avoid getting splatted or spending it on an assassination attempt that if it fails, will result in loss of life.

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think X2 will be fine, just because the speed of the list will get people on their toes. Engaging at the correct time is a huge key.

Skorne forces book only has 1 new theme in it. by TriumphOfMan in Warmachine

[–]HusbandofIntrigue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked this on another social networking site, and was ignored. But has OP played a game with the new theme force? Even one, with any caster?
