Its a good list. The venom of the firefly frog does not stack with the burning blade of chotec though. You can only take one magic sword. Of the two, I believe I would take the burnign blade since you will be facing hydras.

 

[Ferocious]

yeah thats mainly his task, take down those pesky beasts

i could take banner of discipline on the TG
and add potion of str instead of VOFFF on scar vet?


could also opt to go for lore of death
since we will play the scenario with break points,
Sniping his bsb and his general with death would be 2 breakpoints and winning the game

Are you planning on sending the Scar Vet off on his own, hydra-hunting? He could probably use a ward save.

Otherwise, my first reaction to seeing this list is "there's only one solid unit, the TG. The rest are all light skirmishers."
On further consideration, my usual go-to answer for how to kill scary things is "shoot it with skinks." So by that logic, I'd say it looks good. If you face a lot of armor, though, those blowpipes might start looking really weak.

 

[Ferocious]

since its a low amount of 1500, that solid unit buffed with life is a massive unit!
on th eother hand, very much high armour units i wont be seeing =)

Good list - i might have to try something similiar myself. Just a quick question, why is the flaming sword good against hydras?

//syn

 

[Ferocious]

becaus it gives flaming attacks which negate regen,

my scar vet strikes before my TG meaning, if my scar vet makes one wound on the hydra, it loses its regen for the remained of that combat phase, my str 5 of my tg reduice the hydras armour to 6+ and no regen = dead hydra!

Ah cheers for that dude I'm still pretty new and the rulebook is daunting to look through properly for everything - it's a work in progress. I'll have to take this into note for when i play DE

[Ferocious]

it helps against every regen unit
i could also give the unit the flaming banner and than get ripped by a stubborn 2+wsv vs flaming character.. not my cup of tea :d
