Currently building a 2k Shadowstrike army list, and was wondering what artifacts I should get for it, and any improvements/changes. Also, for the Skink formation, anyone got suggestion for, if worth getting movement trays and from where? (Preferably UK) Also skinks will have Blowpipes and shields
I'd drop 3 of the flyers. They are too many to efficiently charge with all of them ! Other than that seems like a fun list, rerolls bravery and unbreakable to 1 of the units + rerolls 1s to all *if you wanna go hard reroll, make konga lines and hit that astro !
Yeah, or 2 groups of 6 rippers perhaps. I can't see what benefit there is to having 12 in one unit. Edit - yes I can - only 1 unit gets the Shadowstrike bonuses and can 3" deep strike. Hm...
That seems like a fun list. Maybe you could drop some of the rippers for some chemos for the added hit and run?
it's 120 for 5 chemo, 10 would be preferable, so you are looking at 240. If you want to drop down to 6 rippers that would leave you with 80 points which you could bump that unit of 10 skinks to 20 and swap a stegadon to an EotG
Tried it out how I listed, it is a good Murderhost list, just need to adapt the rippers for better targets, while Stegs snipe the heroes etc. The amount of attacks the 12 Rippers get is so crazy.
My buddy and I did the average math from the rippers and the blot toad bonus on the Jaws. It averaged out to something like 40-45 wounds
Yeah, abit overkill but good to wipe out alot of things and what not (If bunched up.) , we did though change the list, and I ordered some custom movement trays.
My biggest fear about that list would be that the Skink Priest and Starpriest are so easily snipable by many armies.
I have no clue what Khorne would bring at 2.5K but I would also guess that for our army bringing our synergies is a good idea (and a Slann is a great support unit) and something anti-horde, which makes Kroxigor definitely an option.
