Was messing around on Quarter Master putting lists together and I came up with this.

Great in theory, but do you think it has any merit?

Archmage 305
Level 4 Wizard, Lore of Death, Moranions Wayshard, Dispel Scroll, Golden Crown of Atrazar

30 Archers 330
Full Command

Total 2,398



Very gimmicky, but let me have your thoughts anyway

I think you can make this work. It will obviously be match up dependent.

Why not the Potion of Strength on the Prince instead of the Lodestone?

well avoidance can work pretty well. but there is one dire fault in the list and that is ambushing level 4. For the first turn you don't have any dispelling power and with little unlucky you get rather you will end up having one important aspect of the game. If you want to have Moranions wayshars, I would use another character

secondly I would try to find points to get sister unit on the board. with good BS and flaming you would really like to have them to strip regenerations.

I agree on the lodestone part. your army has tons of juicy magic missile targets . having 4+ ward against spell damage is niche, but probably something that is better left aside.

as you have highly mobile army perhaps you could use skycutters instead of RBT.
