Tonight I played a dual Thundertusk list with great success!
While on the topic of fun lists I have came up with two more I would like to try.
Having a laugh with some mates about the uses of Gnoblar trappers I have decided to base two lists around them! Yes, that's right two 2000pts lists with only Gnoblars as core!
Obviously this will revolve around 10 units of 10 trappers.
Lord - 335pts
Slaughter Master - 335pts
Level 4, Talisman of Preservation, Lore of Beasts
Hero - 160pts
Butcher - 160pts
Level 2, Dispel Scroll, Lore of the Great Maw
Core - 605pts
11x 10 Gnoblar Trappers - 605pts
Groin biters
Special - 559pts
4x Leadies - 172pts
3x Leadies - 129pts
3x Leadies - 129pts
3x Leadies - 129pts
Rare -
Iron Blaster - 170pts
Iron Blaster - 170pts
Total - 1994pts
Yes you are reading this correctly
Idea is I will conga line my Gnoblars and have them positioned so that a charge will only hit one unit and have a 1" over run into the next for maximum dangerous terrain tests! My SM with Beasts will stand in amongst the units (since they don't cause panic to him) and cast spells from the Beasts lore while being safe from combat. Pans pelt + Beast of Horros both affect Gnoblar Groin biters, just for the sheer comedy of it!
T6 Gnoblar? S5 A5 Gnoblar? lol!
I by no means expect to win, just annoy the hell out of my buddy lol! The butcher is there just in cast I can get a bubble guts off on those conga lined Gnoblars for extra comedy
List 2#!
Lord - 375pts
Slaughter Master - 375pts
Level 4, Potion of Speed, Armour of Destiny, Fencers Blades
Hero - 187pts
Bruiser - 187pts
BsB, Additional Hand Weapon, Heavy Armour, Enchanted Shield, Talisman of Preservation
Core - 500pts
10x 10 Gnoblar Trappers - 500pts
Special - 704pts
16x Yhetees - 704pts
Rare - 250pts
Thundertusk - 250pts
Idea behind this one is a hoard of Yhetees, and the Thundertusk will make them attack first at I4 and Str 5. -1 WS is just a bonus. Swiftstride and M7 are going to be helpful since I will be flanking with this unit while my Gnoblars hold up my opponents entire army! Only problem is if I flank a unit in combat with the Gnoblars I will bleed 10 CR through them alone!
Anyway just some fun lists I put together tonight, after close inspection of the Yhetees I think I may have changed my mind on them, for 1pt more than an Irongut they get +1WS(equivalent) +1M, -1S, I4!, Magical attacks (useless), No impact hits. However I rarely get the charge anyway due to poor rolls, so Swiftstride will help in that department and the Bruiser + SM will still get them with +2S to the result!
Let me know what you think and which one you think would be most interesting to run.
My opponent has not and never will take the flaming banner because until how he has had no reason to.
I hope... lol!
