After reading what you wrote in your opening comments for this blog is one of the main reason why I follow Strictly Average. Well done.<br /><br />I tend to play in a lot of 2500 point tournaments which are mostly objective based and in my experience, 2 x 7 man plaguebeares units with 1 icon (optional) is a lot more effective then 1 x 15 man unit. You don’t want that 1 unit of plaguebearers to become redundant after that one scenario/mission is over with that you planed them for. Yes they may work well for that one missions, but trust me, after that mission is over with and your onto your next game, you’ll be thinking to yourself “man I wish I could split that unit”.<br /><br />By splitting them and giving one unit an icon, you can still bring them down together forming your large tar pit unit, but you get the added benefit of making them more resourceful for other missions. Plus you can separate the gap between each unit just enough so they wont get double assaulted when holding an objective.<br /><br />Other then that, the only other change I would consider is to drop a unit of flesh hounds, reduce the size of the other down to 8-6 and add 2 units screamers. In smaller point games, I would never touch them, but at the 2500 point level, they really do work wonders. Ohh and find the 5 points for the changeling.. You know how wonderfully they can be.Syaoranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02110636789681118204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-3819272901143705922011-08-06T22:39:40.639-05:002011-08-06T22:39:40.639-05:00I hope not, WB.

It might even be an advantage, because like all armies, they are still only as good as their player. And the inexperienced players out there will see it as an easy win since they are playing with GK's and make stupid choices, allowing you to get more blood for the blood god.Damn The Valleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10406335232440459737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-23163892932553110292011-08-06T19:28:35.996-05:002011-08-06T19:28:35.996-05:00Warboss Stalin: What do you know?

My limited experience has been that Flesh Hounds are a nasty, nasty tar-pit for GK with the 2+ invulnerable save.<br /><br />However, I am surprised that you have not added any screamers of Tzeentch. Once again, I have limited experience with Daemons, but they not only function as a fantastic screening unit for your Fiends/Hounds, they can really make LR owners cry.<br /><br />Just my 1.1 cent worth.Grizzled Gorillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16715567863938779627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349292176380807894.post-23917151902109892142011-08-06T12:08:19.909-05:002011-08-06T12:08:19.909-05:00Hey Brent,
