Also I like your inclusion of shadow warriors. I like the heartrender model a lot, but those new shadow warriors arguably do the harpy ladies' job better I had thought of a big unit of lifetakers. With sacrament of blood turn 2, mind razor and witch brew, they can be devastating. Issue I have it you need to 1: Have them on the table to put mind razor on, meaning you have to drop them the turn before. Same for other buffs 2: They have 1 wound with a 5+6++, cause really they wont be near the general 3: Large base size. I am very interested to see how his list works. As long as he has tested it well and knows when to do what, he should be able to hoodwink a lot of players and do well. I thought of a Khalibron list but maybe on a local level, not LVO, cause I can plan for the scene meta. Morathi is a great take, I just wanted the snakes and needed more magic than her due to LVO realm spells. Main reason I didnt take chariots (as i couldnt decide between chariots and shadowwarriors/2nd Medusa) was I threw some numbers down and they just didnt do the damage that they look like they should. I also wanted more motal wound output and the ability to pop up a unit. I tested between both, but having mindrazor, even for the +1 Rend, is really needed with so many bone reapers. Mixed with Shroud, there is a good change I can get the extra damage off with the snakes and worth that gamble. Shadow stone lets me reroll the 1 even if I already have a the casting i need (say a 5 and 1, with +1 from stone) but means i can try for a higher value to prevent dispelling. And yeah, Shadow warriors being able to get 2+/3+ with rend 1 is good support. 10 shots/10 wounds is more useful to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graywater Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I think for most matchups, the lifetakers just start on the board. With 14 move, they can get to wherever they need to be and you can deploy them out of a lot of threats without worrying about being too out of position. Base size is definitely a concern though. You raise a good point about the shadow stone with bonereapers being so prevalent @Chumphammer. Rend is going to be even more important moving forward with so many highly armored armies about. I may have to follow your lead and trade the circlet for the shadow stone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucentia Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I've run 10 Lifetakers before, mostly as a reaction to Skaven coming out and needing something fast and fairly cheap that can dip in and wipe out a chaff screen where necessary. Mostly they're fine to start on the board and just use their strong movement to get in, a lot of the time opponents will neglect to target them even if they're sat at the front, but with Witchbrew, Mindrazor and Catechism they can put in some work, they only issue is they don't do much work at all without all of those buffs! Unfortunately they are a little unreliable, you can't always get them where you really want them with their big bases and minimal attacks, but when everything goes right and they swoop in, take out a screen, bounce out their 6" and clog up an entire flank, it's good stuff!

I dont like geminids for daughters because they are going to be right where our units want to be (in the enemy front lines) and negatively impact us a lot. If you cut out geminids, you're 100 points over. That's a really awkward number because there is nothing for you to cut outright to make it work, and trimming down the snakes or the witches is pretty much not an option because you're already only sitting on two main offensive threats. General consensus is you either choose to run morathi or a block of 20 snakes, but not both as that's a lot of points. I've done well running both, but it kind of chooses the rest of your list for you. I do actually agree with the consensus that the army works better without morathi, but I refuse to not use her. So it can be done, but it's harder to play well. Are you doing this as a fun army, or are you trying to win events? That answer can help decide what you direction you can go.

Snakeb1te Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Hi all I really don't like the Cauldron of Blood model. It looks really goofy for me, flimsy, and weird. However as much as I'd like to skip it, it really does seem like a must-take in DoK, so has anyone managed to convert it or have a GW model proxy as it? I was thinking of converting one of the giant chariots of Slaanesh into one. Has anyone done it before, have ideas or pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inability for it to move on it's own is what I couldn't stand. So this is mine. It's a helstalker from the 40k lord discordant kit, but the saddle has been replaced with the platform for my "hag" to stand on. I dont have a side picture but it has a small ruined wall on the side that its crawling up to give it some height. Then the avatar of yncarne is my avatar model.

The harpies, snakes, and morathi take center stage in my army, so the monster cauldron is actually what I was going for. If I were to build one that fits more with the general daughters aesthetic, the slaanesh chariot isnt a bad call. Maybe pulled by the drakespawn knight mounts.

Chumphammer Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Rough overview of the LVO2020 Game 1: Calvin with Soulblight (Won 24-2) Swift Death Vampire lord on Zombie dragon, General, mist form, lance,shield, chalice, ethereal amuler, amethystine Pinons Vampire lord Flying Horror amaranthine orb Neferata – Mortach of blood Vile Transference 10 Blood Knights 2 x 3 Varghiests 20 Bladesgheist revenants Calvin held back his bladesheists, scared to charge my fully buffed SOS. Meant SOS took out the knights and Snakes took out his General. His saving grace was Nef rolling the 6 after wounding the cauldron to kill it before she went down. Game 2: Brandon with IDK (Won 20 - 5) Ionrach Akhelian King, General, polearm, emissary of the deep places, cloud of midnight Isharann tidecaster, steed of tides Isharann Tidecaster, Pressure of the deep Gotrek 2 x 3 Ishlaen Guard 4 x 3 Morrsarr Guard Chonomantic cogs Made him go first. He ran forwards to hold points. I abused cogs and realm spell wildform and got a double 6 charge on the witch aelves to get into gotrek and get 2 wounds. Shadow warriors chipped 2 more then SOS killed him in combat turn 3. Swarmed the points and took the win, but not enough for the major Game 3: Josh with Fyreslayers (25-0) Hermdar Auric Runefather, general, Tyrant Slayer Auric Runemaster, Ember storm Auric Runesmiter, forge key, Prayer of ash Battle Smith, The Nulisdian Icon 2 x 20 Hearthguard Berzerkers with poleaxes 15 Hearthguard Berzerkers with broadaxes 3 Gyrocopters Lords of the lodge Runic Fyrewall He made me go first so I didn’t move bar a few inches on SOS. He did the same, nervous to engage as his army was split and mine was central. Managed to take out the gyrocopters with a Witch aelve charge and shadow warriors. Meant they did nothing. After he failed to cast run and charge, I piled into his right flank, snakes move right/center. Meant turn 4 he only had general, hero, 20 Hearthguard on is corner vs my whole army. I ran everything over and piled into him. Snakes with mindrazor and infernal blades just wiped him out. Game 4: Joshua with Tempest Eye (18 – 9) Leaders Celestial Hurricanum With Celestial Battlemage - General - Trait: Hawk-eyed- Spell: Lore of Eagles - Celestial Visions Battlemage- Spell: Lore of Eagles - Strike of Eagles - Mortal Realm: Chamon Luminark of Hysh With White Battlemage - Spell: Lore of Eagles - Aura of Glory (Tempest's Eye Wizard) Aether-Khemist 30 x Freeguild Handgunners 20 x Freeguild Handgunners 40 x Arkanaut Company - 12x Light Skyhooks 5 x Freeguild Outriders Extra Command Point Soulscream Bridge Thought I was done for as he got the double. He used the bridge to jump everything up and in 2 rounds of shooting took out my Cauldron and 24 Sisters of Slaughter and 6 snakes. Ouch. However, Snakes and Medusa totally pulled it back into a win. Very tight game Game 5: Philippe with Fyreslayers (25 – 0) Hermdar Auric Runefather, general, Tyrant Slayer, General, Warrior Indominate Auric Runemaster, Ember storm Auric Runesmiter on magmadroth, coal-heart ancient, Prayer of ash Battle Smith, The Nulisdian Icon 3 x 20 Hearthguard Berzerkers with broadaxes Lords of the lodge Runic Fyrewall All my prayers and spells worked out in this game, and I managed to make him push too much, meaning I could take out a unit at a time. End of Day two I was 5th/168 on points and in the final 8: I have some issues with the set up for game 6. It was a complete mess of organization and meant the players were told the mission from a random page in the book, and told time had started (using death clocks which no heads up was given) This meant we had to get to tables (as half had been sent to wrong tables) and set up scenarios and army on the clock. Means I totally missed he had the soulscream bridge and let him go first as I thought I was out of range. Game 6: Gregor with Skaven (Loss) Greyseer on bell, general master of magic, Death Frenzy Grey Seer, skitterleap Warlock Engineer, vigordust injector, more more warp power 3 x 20 Clanrats with shields 40 plague monks, woe staves. 6 stormfiends, 2 windlaunchers, 2 ratling cannons, 1 doomflayer gauntlets, 1 shock gauntlets Hell pit Abomination Soulscream bridge Prismatic Palisade He rolled 30 for his rating guns turn 1 and killed all my sos. Launders killed 7 snakes (inc battle shock for both) I managed to pull it back, taking his Abom to 1 wound, killing 24 Plague monks, his warlock engineers and half his clanrats. However, he was now up 10 – 6 by end of turn 3 (I also forgot a mind razor cast turn 2 and to move with aelves turn 1. Clock really put me off). I was down a hag, incantor, and both Shrine and Cauldron on full wounds. If I had won priotiry, I could have killed the middle inc his seers and pulled a Win/Draw If he won, I could pull a draw then kill points (which meant I could pull it as still lots of points left) Sadly he won priority, then double 6 banishment my shrine to the back of the board. I called it there as I couldn’t pull it back. All in all a great weekend. I aimed to get into the top 20 if I could, so I wasn’t down when I lost (actually had a laugh the last round with him) I got into the top 14 painted, and not sure how many sports votes I got but ended up 7/168 and then I won best overall. Pretty damn happy. Double Medusa was awesome. Really helped. Incantor was average, as was the comet. Mainly as 2 of the games Fyreslayers ignored on a 4+ lol. 10 Witchalves I kinda wish I had put shields on for the pot hit back damage. New list has 1x20 and 1x10 Shadow warriors lol. Really useful unit. I and switching back to a Slaughter queen for general as that command ability would have been great 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not let him go 1st? lol Woulda meant Incantor could have auto dispelled the bridge. (though he kept the keyseer back) Woulda dropped the shadow warriors to try and pop the Greyseer at the back, or the Warlock (with comet doing damage to) I would have had Witch brew up, which would have stopped 7 SoS running away. Maybe even Blessing to keep them more in the game. Remembering Mindrazor (which he might have dispelled) turn 2 would have been big, as snakes were in with the Stormfiends. Being more aggressive would have been better. But hey, it happens and cant change that. I made big mistakes due to feeling the pressure with that damn death clock, and thats ok. Something to learn from, as at turn 3 I breathed and calmed it down a little realizing i still had 36mins left @jhanslam totally my dude.
