So we are having the second round special mega battle for blood in the badlands campaign. Its a random parring for the first round, winner moves on to actual mega battle. Here's the trick, the winning player can only bring surviving models to the next round. Units get 1d6 models back and wounded characters get 1 wound back. With all this in mind, heres what i came up with. Lv4 shadow sorcerer with infernal puppet, talisman of preservation, enchanted shield=365 Exalted of tzeentch with shield, BSB, book of secrets, power familiar=200 Festus=185 CORE 49 marauders of khorne with great weapons and full command=295 18 warriors of khorne with shields, halberds, standard, musician, banner of eternal flame=364 19 warriors of khorne with shields, halberds, standard, musician, banner of discipline=381 5 war hounds=30 5 war hounds=30 SPECIAL Chariot=120 Chariot=120 RARE Hell cannon=205 Hell cannon=205 TOTAL=2500 The Shadow sorcerer sits in the warrior unit with the banner of discipline in the middle, granting the general LD9, the BSB sits in the other warrior unit set to the left of the first set of warriors, while the marauders sit to the right of the general's unit with festus. Idea is the BSB sits to the far right corner of the farthest left, in theory making sure the entire battle line(which is frenzied) benefit from LD9 and BSB. P.S. There is 1 Empire player, 1 Ogre player, 1 Beastman Player, and 2 DE players. Edited by Harbinger, Mar 16 2012, 12:37 AM.

I'm always scared Book of Secrets is going to blow a character up. Sure you have Puppet, but if your BSB gets blown up just to cast one random spell doesn't seem like a good trade. Remember it's only D3 on puppet and the best you are getting is a 7 on the BoS. Why not just take a nurgle sorc instead of festus? You can give him the trimmings and it will be safer. You lose Festus' abilities and auto Leper but it's not a bad trade. Just a thought. Edited by Hieronymus, Mar 16 2012, 12:44 AM.

Well if u take BoS and only give him signature spell, then he is save from miscast (exept miscast coming from diffrent items and effects) so its not so bad to just try to roll signatures with one dice (allways do if got spare dices left). Usualy ppl wana put Dispell Scroll to BoS carrying Hero and do not mind to cast anything with him before its used. So same idea is in here with power familiar. I think Harbinger is not going to let his BoS hero to kill himself to miscast :D Festus is cheaper then normal sorcerer from my opinion + he gives rege 5+ and poison attacks to unit which he joins. So he is good choise to take. |

Ditto to what R3do said about festus, given the choice i would take festus anyday over a regular nurgle caster with trimmings. Also piggy back on the BSB comment, i typically never roll more then 2 dice when i cast the sig spell with BSB so i almost never miscast. And i like the idea of more power dice then the scroll usually. If i kill the guy casting the spell before he can get it off, don't need the scroll, and with most mages being either Str or T 3, its not that hard with this list. |

Any list with 2 hellcannons is down right rocking in my book. I totally agree with putting in Festus over a generic Nurgle caster. Chariots are awesome, i always run at least two myself as they make great targets that are not easily shot to pieces unless your opponent gets lucky with a warmachine. And all those frenzied units will most likely give you a bit of an edge in that it usually freaks out opponents (even if they don't admit it). Awesome list :rock: |

I also run the same BsB as you and always choose shadow sig spell. But i have nurgle not Khorne chaos warriors . The reason why is that a lot of armies core units have 3ws which means they are hitting on +5 and the ones that are +4ws I cast shadow sig on them , either from my BSB or my shadow lord. |
