Very Crazy: Six Frosthearts, One List!

#1 Post by Andrei_Warrior »

So before we begin, i am aware that this list could be made MUCH better, as it doesn't even have a mage. However, i love frosthearts, and i would prefer that instead of people telling me to put a prince on a star dragon and a mage in for the 2 anointed, that i should fiddle around with the magic items on the anointed. I left 40 spare points so people could help me with any magic items, or banners on the silver helms for example. Help is always welcomed, however i would prefer to keep the characters and the rare section the same, save for the magic items.

Lords = 1070

1x Anointed, Frostheart, Giant Blade, Enchanted Shield, Potion of Toughness = 535

1x Anointed, Frostheart, Ogre Blade, Armour of Silvered Steel

Heroes = 420

1x Caradryan, Ashtari

Core = 750

12x Silver Helms, Shields, Musician, Standard

9x Silver Helms, Shields, Musician, Standard

9x Silver Helms, Shields, Musician, Standard

Rare = 720

3x Frostheart Phoenix

This is 2960 points, with some room for fiddling around. Help is appreciated! :)

law of diminishing returns. Too many frostheart
I would rekit ur general to
Anointed on Flamespyre Phoenix: Giant Blade, Dawnstone, Enchanted Shield, Potion of Foolhardiness

Your other Anointed can be kitted to be
Anointed on Frostheart Phoenix: Ogre Blade, TOTS, some other armour stuff.

I would swap 1 Frostheart Phoenix in the rare to Flamespyre

I would also drop 1 unit of Helms for some Reavers for redirecting and maybe drop another or the rest of the helms for Archers so you have some range options which have none. Not having magic support hurts not having range and magic is just pointless.

So, no BSB, no magic. Crazy indeed!

My preferred loadout if you insist on running 6 Frosthearts:
- Giant Blade, Dawnstone, Enchanted Shield, Potion of Fools
- Shield of Ptolos, Ogre Blade, Crown of Command

Core:
15 Silver Helms: FCG
15 Silver Helms: FCG
750 sharp.

Just a quick question, if you could chose one or the other in this list, would you rather have a mage or a BSB?

Haha, i just played against a khorne army with this list, and he also had no magic or bob, so i completely dominated as those are more or less the only 2 weaknesses of this list apart from war machines.

BSB > Mage, in my opinion.
