Re: The Cavalry Prince - List Design, Tactics, Battle Reports

I really love the HE, with everything, the fluff, but have had problems making them work for me on the tabletop, but I keep coming back, mainly to check up on this thread.

It is very inspiring, for one thing to see people actually doing ok with HE, but also the insight, and the discussions.

Re: The Cavalry Prince - List Design, Tactics, Battle Reports

if you are not sold on Life, and with so many archers, surely Shadow, would be a great thing for the army, can lower the T of the enemy you want to shoot, can lower the BS of the unit trying to shoot you, can pit stuff ,mindrazzor the archers, if not the SM, All in all ,I think Shadow to be a great ...

Ideas against Empire

Hi guys,

Am trying to get my head around how best to go agaisnt Empire, they have horrible things that we really do not like,

Such as, Mortars, massed gunfire, unbreakable units, AL, and of course, the Steam tank.

So what is the best way around all of this??

Re: Return of Seredain the Cavalry Prince - 2.5K

very well written analasys there, well done =D>

Made some very good reading.

Would be a very good post to sticky, if there is a mod around anywhere.


How would you cope with Empire, with a Stank, and a Arch Lector????

Re: Return of Seredain the Cavalry Prince - 2.5K

I also love reading this thread, because I love the thought of making HE work, but have always had problems making alist that I like. Also comes down to the people I play, one of them being an avid Empire player, so not having an answer to his Stank, and cannons, and mortars, kinda sucks. But it cer...

Very nice report, and thx for it,

Think you need to get some new dice sent to you, must be so irritating when you make all the right moves, only for the dice gods to be laughing in your face.

Seredain: that is what I was asking, because there are as said many that have not seen it, but take it as given after 7th, that was all, now to get back and read the rest of the report.

just so we are on the same page here, not too sure we are, Did you or he roll highest, because the person who rolls the highest, should as far as I can see after the rule book deploy first. Winning the rool off, only means if you roll higher, you go first, not that you decide, think many people make...

Quick question for you so far, you say you won the roll off to deploy, is this a house rule you use, because its not like that in the rule book any more, if you win a roll off, to start or deploy, that means you actually start, or deply first. unless of course you agree otherwise. Nice report, looki...

Seredain: Earlier on this page when talking about your game agaisnt the lizzis, that the match up you really wanted was, the SM against his TG, why would that be, yup, I know you could toast a good few of them, but as you are only 14, with 21 attacks, you are going to wound on avg 12 of them, on whi...

Re: 2400 tourney list ,(what do ya think)

thx for the comments guys, will look into it.

The Lore would be shadow, so my shooting might actually do something, plus I would hopefully have an answer to a Stank. And mindrazzor is always a good thing to have.

On the Proince would of course be death.

Re: Yet another 2,500 HE List seeking opinions and comments!

interesting that you want to take bolt throwers, two sixes shooting at them and they are gone, not much for 200pts, also you are sadly lacking in the eagle department, something that can take war machines and get in the way. Also I like the staff of sorcery, making one of your lvl 2 mages to an effe...

Re: "Equipping prince on Sdragon, 2400 points

Have rephrased the title as asked :-), my bad

As to other characters, will have a Bsb, and a lvl 1/2, not sure as yet, but will need something for dispelling, thinking on maybe a lvl 2 with staff of sorcery, so I still dispel at +4:-)

As the title says, If I take a Star dragon, with a Prince, I get 80 pts to spend on equipment for him.
