2250 Alith Anar - all comers

#1 Post by MTKjack »

It has been about 6 months since I’ve played and am looking to start off with a bang. I could use help with my list and tactics… Thanks.

Alith Anar
BSB – Heavy Armor, Shield, Great Weapon, Banner of Battle
Mage lvl2 – Seerstaff, Dispel Scroll
Mage lvl2 – Ring of Fury, Silver Wand

26 Spears – FC (BSB goes here)
11 Archers (Mage goes here)

5 DP – FC, Banner of Ellyrion, Amulet of Light, Biting Blade
5 SW – Shadow Walker
15 PG – FC, War Banner
7 WL or SM – Champion w/ Armor of Calendor

2 x RBT
2 x GE

= 2248

My tactics would be to keep my Spears and PG as stationary as possible protecting Archers, RBT, and the lone Mage. My GE’s run as diversion and squishy killers. My WL’s / SM’s and DP’s position themselves in ambush spots (preferably difficult terrain) to support anvil units. SW goes where needed and try to avoid combat. I rain death on enemy with bows, bolts and magic; drawing enemy into center. Hopefully by the time they get into combat they are soft enough for my troops to survive.

The guys I play with don’t run too much magic, so I tend to go more offense magic than defense.
Please help, Thanks!
We'd better get back, 'cause it'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night... mostly.

All my units have Champs except for Archers. Sorry for the confusion FC = Full Command or Banner, Champ and Music.

why 11 archers?

A mage there you will have to watch it carefully. At one time I was running a mage in an RBT with lore of heavens and seerstaff. Choose the line of sight spells. It was kind of fun.

26 spears is a real strange number especially adding a character. They work good 5 by 5 or 6 by 4. I have tried the 7 wide and did not have much success with them. Probably poor general ship.

Your PG are just too small. They cause fear and that run about being outnumbered by a fear causing enemy and CR is the way they will win combat.

Personally I would mount the BSB and put him with the Dragon Princes.
