I see some things are missing in the lists, that's because I needed to clean up the lists as they are originally made in Army Builder. Unfortunately I missed some things, like for example the BSB in the first list. The captain with Crown of Command is also the BSB. Also the AL with Dawnstone actually have both barding and shield making him AS 2+ re-rollable. But I agree with you that making him 1+ instead with either ench shield or Dragonhelm makes him much better for a small price. <br /><br />Yeah the idea with hiding my Wizard in a unit of five archers may not be the best either even if they are hiding behind the parent unit. I think I put him in the parent unit or making the archers into one 10-man unit instead. <br /><br />I have actually been considering mixing the lists around. I really like the idea with the War Altar buffing the Demigryph Knights. And with so many high priority targets in that list with all Demigryphs, STank, Hurricanum etc. I think it may not be shoot down first couple of turns.<br /><br />I think I will make another Demigryph Knights list with your suggestions in mind. Thanks again ^^.SpaceCowboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338827221780206252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709645955054561445.post-74938068854082282192012-06-28T01:09:35.389+02:002012-06-28T01:09:35.389+02:00Well for starters, your first list doesn't hav...Well for starters, your first list doesn't have a BSB. As a general rule, every list should have one - it's far too important to leave out. He should also be planning to be near the action - putting him in the one infantry unit in an army packed with cavalry may see him out of range of the action, which could be disastrous.<br /><br />It might be worth considering mixing your lists around a bit. An army packed with Demigryphs would benefit from a War Altar and Celestial Hurricanum - I think they're the biggest selling point for a War Altar as they're the unit you can't just slap a Warrior Priest into.<br /><br />Planning to put a Wizard Lord into a unit of 5 Archers sounds fraught with danger to me - that's one T3 model away from you losing Look Out Sir. I'd be giving the Wizard a ward save and putting him into the parent unit.<br /><br />The mounted Arch Lector with the Dawn Stone should really have the best save you can give him - barding and at least the Dragonhelm if not a shield. No point having a rerollable save if it's going to get negated by a moderate attack.<br /><br />Just a few thoughts.Hoodlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507134198601519253noreply@blogger.com
