3-Monster army list
« on: May 04, 2012, 10:55:59 AM »
Hey guys,
I wanted to show you an army lists i want to try out.
I love the stonehorn/tt model so i tried to make my army around them.
Few things to note, i want the stonehorn hunter in it, so dont reply saying i shouldnt use the hunter, i wont listen ;P
Its 2500 point, here we go!

313    Slaughtermaster   Fencer Blades, Disp. Scroll, IF
451   Hunter         Stonehorn, GW, Beastkiller, Sword of Striking, Shield of Ptolos

212   6 Ogres      Bellower, IF, standard
212   6 Ogres      Bellower, IF, standard
278   6 Ironguts   Bellower, standard
172   4 Leadbelchers

340   4 Mournfang   musician, HA, IF, Dragonhide Banner

250   Thundertusk
250   Stonehorn   Harpoon
-----------
2478

So lets hear it, i thought about an ironblaster instead of the TT or maybe some yhetees to flank.

EDIT: And maybe add another hunter with sabretusks. An army based around hunters seems very cool! And it sticks to the tundra/hunter theme thats going on in my army.
And i have 2 stonehorns so they must stay. Removing the thundertusk is a possiblity, although i dont want to ;P

You can save 25 points straight off, as under 8th ed rules you can't take more than one dispel scroll.

According to my OK book, you pay 350 for 4 MF with Dragonhide, HA and IF... ;)

On another note. I like your idea of using a Hunter-themed army. Not sure that it will be that competitive, but It'll probably be fun to play.
Maybe combine the two Ogre units? It will give them some staying power, and save you some pts. on command groups.
Maybe I'd swap the TT for a Ironblaster, but not sure if the IB would be off in a "Hunter-Army"... ... ... ... Anyway, it'll free up some more points...

I'd probably use the following - based on your list:

310    Slaughtermaster: lvl.3, Fencers Blades, Disp. Scroll
390   Hunter: Stonehorn, Harpoon Launcher

436   13 Ogres: Bellower, IF, standard
278   6 Ironguts: Bellower, standard

172   4 Leadbelchers
350   4 Mournfang: musician, HA, IF, Dragonhide Banner
63     3x1 Sabretusk

250   Thundertusk
250   Stonehorn   Harpoon

TOTAL: 2499

That's a lot of big creatures...

If you swap the TT for a IB, you'll free up further 80 pts or so... another Iron Gut and perhaps a banner?
You could drop the TT altogether and get yourself a BSB with Rune Maw banner, and put him in the 12-block unit along with your SM? This will leave you with 'round 50 pts. for another IG and a Flaming banner in the IG unit... might be useful against certain "regen-armies"...
