Phoenix Legion aka High Elves for dummies. :)

#1 Post by oberKGBler »

Hy all,

first of all excuse my bad english.

This is my first post so I want to introduce my self a bit to you guys.
Im 29 collect Warhammer for quite a time but really didnt come into it till last year. A few tabletop friends of mine took their old stuff from their cellars and now we are gaming from time to time.

Now I want to start a HE army. The Phoenix Legion. Im not to much in the HE-background but I thougt about a expedition force send by the knowlege of the phoenix guard to fight their battles where they have to happen.

The list I´m working on is for a 2 vs 2 match between my buddy and his Bret´s alongside my Elves, VS two other friends with their Vampire Counts and Dark Elves.

So this is my list (sry I have some troubles with the english terms):

Archmage (into the Phoenix Guard)
High Magic, Level 4 Wizard
Book of Hoeth, 4++ item

BSB (into Sea Guard)
heavy armour, the magic shield and the magic bow from our book

24x Sea Guard
shield and full command

2x 5 Reaves
swapped for bows and musican

20x Swordmasters
full command and the standard that lets you reroll one moralcheck

19x Phoenix Guard
with full command

5x Dragon Prince
with full command and standard of discipline

Flamespyre Phoenix

1997p.


Im not a great painter or neither a fast one. So Im aiming for some fast to paint tabletop standard. Here you can see my first Swordmaster as my colour scheme test.

I hope you like my stuff so far, stay tuned for high elves for dummies. :)

Have you played any games yet? While it is nice to paint all your things i believe you should get in some games to find out if your list fits your playing style.
