After giving it some consideration, I decided that the idea of a Court of the Young King list was too cool to pass up. Since we now have plenty of strategems, and cheaper Aspect warriors, I think it would be fun to try out a brigade detachment. Here’s what I’m thinking so far:
2,000 pt Biel Tan Brigade
Avatar of Khaine
Farseer w/ Doom & Fortune, Spirit Stone of Anath’lan (Warlord Trait: Natural Leader)
Warlock w/ Protect/Jinx
4 x 5 Dire Avengers, inc. Exarch w/ 2 ASC
2 x 5 Rangers
2 x 5 Fire Dragons, inc. Exarch w/ DBF
10 Striking Scorpions, inc. Exarch w/BB
5 Wraithguard w/ D-scythes
6 Shining Spears, inc. Exarch w/ SL
6 5 Swooping Hawks, inc. Exarch
6 5 Warp Spiders, inc. Exarch w/ 2 DS
3 x 3 5 Dark Reapers, inc. Exarch (thinking of trying out a couple different loadouts on these guys)
+ 2 Wraithlords w/BL, Shuriken Cannon, Flamer, Shuriken Catapult
I’m debating on whether I should group the Dark Reapers into one squad, in which case, I would drop the Wraithguard squad in favor of 2 Wraithlords probably.
Tactics: Hawks, Spiders, and Scorpions go in reserve. Rangers infiltrate to help mitigate alpha strike. Pretty much everything else forms a blob and helps deliver Avatar into combat. If needed, Fire Dragons and/or Wraithguard can Webway Assault into the enemy’s back lines to help destroy armor and disrupt.
Feedback is welcome, thanks!
