Hi guys
A few friends and I have decided to get together this weekend and have a massive 3000 point team game. Naturally I'm running Ogres and I've been teamed up with Dark Elves. Our opponents will be Lizardmen teamed up with.... yep! More bloody Dark Elves!!
My partner is not known for his tactical brilliance so I need to make a list that will rock the socks off anything it comes into contact with to mitigate the crazy list my team mate will be putting together. He will be running a monumental block of Executioners with a few characters in it and lots of chaff in the form of 10 man Corsair units, Units of Shades etc to screen and redirect for the unit all supported by some shooty units, couple of bolt throwers and a level 4 shadow on peg with the cloak of 3++ and a small unit on Warlocks.
My opponents will be running a Fast Cav style Dark Elf list with a disgusting block of Warlocks packed with filthy 1+ armour Masters and Dreadlords and probably a Lvl 4 Life as well, a tonne of shooting and loads of bolt throwers. The Lizardmen are likely to have some Skink Skirmishers, a cohort for Tetto Eko, big ass block of Saurus, Cold one Riders, couple of Bastidons, at least 1 Stegadon and most likely a Carnosaur and maybe some Temple Guard. He may even rock out a Slaan if we allow him to proxy one
We aren't using the Grand Army or Alliance rules. When Winds of Magic are rolled each player gets the allocated ammount of dice (both casters get their total and both dispellers get their allocated total) and we each have to use our own General and BSB however we can affect each other with magic such as Augments and whatnot.
Anyhoo.... Enough of my ramblings. Here is what I have come up with for my initial list.
Slaughtermaster, Level 4 Maw, Ironfist, Armour of Destiny & Grut's Sickle - 388
Bruiser, BSB, Heavy Armour, Enchanted Shield & Talisman of Preservation - 184
Butcher, Level 1 Heavens, Great Weapon & Hellheart - 159
Firebelly, Level 1 Fire, Dispell Scroll & Ruby Ring of Ruin - 170
8 Ogres, Full Command & Ironfists - 286
10 Ironguts, Full Command, Look Out Gnoblar & Standard of Discipline - 480
4 Leadbelchers & Bellower - 182
Sabretusk

Sabretusk
6 Maneaters, Full Command, Gleaming Pennant, 6x Brace of Pistols & BTDT = Sniper & Poison - 397
4 Mournfang Cavalry, Standard Bearer, Musician, Heavy Armour, Ironfists & Dragonhide Banner 350
Ironblaster
Ironblaster
Total = 2999
Thoughts?
