I was thinking yesterday about how I could construe the most powerful (in close combat terms) Old One build and I came up with this:
Sword of bloodshed + 3 attacks (60 points)
The Maiming Shield + 1 attack (30 points)
Venom of the Firefly Frog (all attacks are poisonous and magical) (10 points)
= 100 points of magical items
Cold one and light armour will give him a 1+ Save and the benefit of protection in a large unit of Cold One Riders.
An Oldblood has 6 WS, 5 S and 5 attacks.
This will result in 9 attacks at S 5 where he can auto-wound on 6's due to poison.
Other options would be to include a Magic Standard or two if you include a BSB. This could include Flaming attacks, Armor Piercing attacks, Cause Terror, +1 Combat Resolution or just protection from missiles.
Armor piercing would be great if you are up against heavily armoured enemies.
Thoughts?
