8th Ed. A ridiculous thought?

[Mr Phat]

Slann with either
Obsidian Blade
or dare I say.........
Blade of Realities

Think of it..
He gets his support attack when in templeguard...its expensive and probably the worst place those weapons could be, but imagine the face of your opponent when his canned elven or human lord takes a wound from the backrank without any saves.

Am I completely mad for suggesting this option?

That's both ridiculous and mad haha. I like the idea but I'm just not quite seeing it. At least not with the blade of reality. If I were to do something like this it would be with an etheral slann w/ BSB and war banner. With the +3 sword he could potentially do.. Something?

 

[Crillaz]

What is the ws of the slann? 1, 2?

Probably 100 points is a lil to much for me when you will basically only hit on 5´s against other lords. And then comes wounding on 5 or 6 (most likely).

But of course, the surprise from the opponent would be great to see if you manage to wound.

Hmmm.... Dualing Blades ???
for WS 10 and +1 attack.
should at least make him a little harder to kill.
... hmm probaly best on the etherial slann since the extra attack is a waste in the second rank.
perhaps one of the gimicy 5-15 point blades ?



Ps. his attacks are using Skink stats, since it's basicly the Skink Attendant actualy doing the attacking.
