The main purpose of the list is mobility & attack stacks by taking advantage of the furious charge (Troglodon roll) & Fury of Khaine extra attacks on our 2 kickers: cold one riders (to a theoretical max of 8 attacks by rider) & rippers.
The list is not meant for tournaments, just fun parties between friends. Obviously Ld9 cold ones stupidity is a risk, but by increasing their mobility with drilled, rampaging banner & magic, I hope to be able to get through it.
Slaan’s spells chosen with the Lore Familiar to be:
- Fury of Khaine: to give +2 attacks to cold one riders or rippers.
- Assault to give the Slaan better ability to catch flanks & rears.
- Walk between worlds to increase defensiveness through ethereal & mobility of our 2 kickers.
- Depending on the opponent: Monsoon (should I hide the Slaan behind it or deny enemy charges?) or Drain Magic (should I get protection from a high magic potential?).
The Troglodon spell should normally be the assault signature one from Battle Magic.
How is it deployed?:
- “Weak” center to create mess, deny areas and create opportunities for kickers:
o Surprisingly not so weak Saurus pack with shieldwall & attack first hero.
o Swarms.
o 15 skinks with blowpipes to afraid low-armour charges & block some line of sight.
o 2 light skinks units to take advantage of terrain or create turn 1 line of sigh blockers on riders (vanguard) & threaten unprotected units (scouts).
- Annoying flank: Terradon skink & Rippers.
- Strong flank: centred Slaan as much as possible, cold one riders + character and Troglodon just behind cold ones.
For both flanks, this is an option to include or not the character into the unit at the beginning of the game.
The Slaan has to play it wise:
- Hide behind a forest for example not to be targeted turn 1, and then needs to run behind the enemy lines to potentially try a supportive rear charge turn 3.
- Stay close at 18” of cold one riders with Ld9 & from the Troglodon to use Arcane Vassal.
- Stay close enough of the centre to dispel and control enemy magic.
As you can see, 55 points are missing to equip the Old Blood depending on the opponent:
- Is it going to be alone or in the unit?
- Do I want a monster killer with paymaster coin & Dragon Slaying Sword?
- Do I rather need a unit clearer?
Don't hesitate to share a multipurpose item build that can be used in most of cases.
Again, this is not a tournament list, with my friend we always announce before we meet, not the list, but the army we will play.
