Hi everone
Just wanted to get some advice from some of the WFB vet out there.
With the Stirling invite tournament draw close. I though I enter so it would mean I can get a WFB force built & get to grip with the WFB side of Games Workshop & what better way to learn than by a tournament.
Anyway I am chosen to take Chaos Warriors with the new army book. My reason are, you all know me & know I am a big chaos fan. Conversion come first, gaming second, background & fluff very last but I do try to theme my army around something that I see in my mind eye.
Anyway with that being the case & the new WFB Chaos book out the day before the event. Cutting it a little short there but lucky I got a little look that the book when I was down in Nottingham & talking to the staff.
So just again ether those with the book, know the solid rumour (once that are not fake) will be able to tell me if my army alright.
The list I am doing right now it more to do with money & models I like. Then as time gose buy add on thing. May not be the strongiest list in the world & I may do poo/give easy wins to my oppents during that invite tournament. Or I might crush people like Frazier & his Daemons because the power of chaos favour me who know.
Anyway enough ranting. A list I made while down in Nottingham
Lord
Chaos Lord, Rending Sword, Armour of Damnation, Mark of Tzeentch, Golden Eye
Mount: Daemonic Steed
370
Hero
Exalted Champion, Bronze Armour of Zhrakk, Sheild
130 (Useing Harry the Hammer models I got during my time in GW Edinbrugh)
Core
15 Chaos Warriors, Sheild, full command - 262
15 Chaos Warriors, Sheild, full command - 262
I like the Chaos Warriors, one reason why I want to get back to WFB for a little bit & gte a army done
20 Marauders, full command, Flails - 120
I am useing Flaglents acting as cult in my army & because I hate the Marauder models.
Specil
5 Chaos Knights, Champion - 220
5 Chaos Knights, Champion - 220
5 Chaos Knights, Champion - 220
Models are cool, don't have time to make forsaken or chosen until say Storm over Stirling.
Rare
War Alter - 130
Conversion more than anything. I would like to (when money good) get some Hell Cannons.
So that is 1934 points I have spent in the army overall. I still got 316pts left which will most like go to two Sorcerer??? & possible some banners.
But is this alright/is it legal. Rememeber I am trying to make the best of what I have & what I can spend money wise. Most models are more because conversion.
While the tournament itself is more to get me to get a WFB force built & ready (will get that least some paint on my army).
So any though, beside a overhaul (again more I can't spend as much right now, most the above is what I can make/get with the money I got) like upgreads. Is this legal???
Thanks
Jamie
