2800 SMx2 Beasts Themed list

original thread ↗

Oi lads, here's a fun-centric tourney list for a panel comp, themed-oriented tournament coming up later this year. I loved Marcopollo's Maw/Beasts Slaughtermaster idea and decided to run with it. I can take two duplicate choices from SoM so I gave a couple sabretusks Scout for fun.

"Ten Bellies"
Slaughtermaster lvl 4 Maw
Trickster's Helm, 4++, GW

SM lvl 4 Beasts
Fencer's, Glittering, Greedy

Bruiser BSB
4++, GW

Firebelly lvl 1
Scroll

Ironguts x8
FC, Banner of D

Bulls x9
FC

Mournfang x3
HA, IF, Banner/Musician, Swiftness

Sabre

Sabres (SoM) x2
Scouts

Ironblaster

"Munchy"
Stonehorn, harpoon

"Edward III"
Stonehorn, harpoon

Hoping for a lovely +10 comp points from judges not used to seeing Stonehorns on the table, especially in an all Chaos/Elf meta.

Any and all CC is welcome. I like my big unit of bulls vs. three man units of chaff for an extra character bunker and to make more use of all these buffs. I'm mostly using the models I have painted and ready to go to limit my procrastination...but keeping the theme of Beasts with Mournies instead of leadies, for example. Also for lots of RAWRGHs at the table when I get a double Stonehorn charge 8)
I support this list and everything it stands for.
Happily reporting my first win (and game) with this list against a fairly balanced DW Life Cauldron list this past weekend.

Munchy managed to rampage through some BTs and annihilate a unit of darkshards before the warlock bus tore off his face.

Edward III and the Mournies ran straight into the Cauldron Witches and brought them down to a fleeing 2+cauldron, mostly thanks to a lovely two rounds of Curse of Anraheir. Allowing the gutstar to pummel some executioners (thanks to the Savage Beasted DREAM TEAM...almost :P) and overrun into the fleeing ladies in one round.

Funnily enough the Ironblaster misfired turn 1, spun, and then rolled a 1 to wound the Cloak Peg master before getting charged. Pegmaster wiffed and only did 1 wound (thank you T6) before dying next round to a very mad rhinox. Hehe.

All in all an excellent game that went about how I expected. The Stonehorns died after doing some damage on impact, and the star remained inviolable without having to rely on trollguts too often.
