Phoenix Lord List Building Competition - The Vote
« on: September 2, 2015, 02:29:44 AM »
This time there are eight entrants and links to their army list entries (see below) are listed in the order in which they were submitted to the contest topic.

Howling Winds - 1500pts
Gelding for the Harvester of Souls 1500 [Phoenix Lord List]
Pheonix Lord Competition -DAs, Scatbikes & Brightlances
Storm of Shadows Phoenix Lord Competition Entry
1500pt Phoenix Lord Competition
Wraithstar + Falcon Pods 1500p for Phoenix Lord competition.
Phoenix lord - Grizzlykin entry - swift hunt
The Cry of Wind and Death - Phoenix Lord Competition

The poll will run for seven days. You can change your vote if you make a mistake.  If you wish to say who you voted for, this is okay.  Note though that the results of the poll will only be displayed after the voting time has expired, as it helps to build the suspense and to stop people voting based on how others vote.

Good luck to all the participants :).

Nice work, guys.
I really enjoyed reading the list entries & discussions on this one. There were quite a few really nice entries, but one clear winner IMHO.

BTW: If anyone has ideas for themes for these competitions, let me know. I've not run out of ideas yet, but it's gonna happen eventually.

I was tempted, because I wanted one of the more survivable PLs as my Warlord, but in the end I went with the DA Daddy.

Odd that no-one did though. He's not a bad choice, and the fire dragons are far from a sub-optimal choice in the right list.

I actually had a list drawn up with Karandras, Jain zar and Fuegan all outflanking using scorpions to do so, but I thought that 3 Phoenix Lords at 1500 was insane. It would have been great at 2000 points though.

I tried making a Fuegan list for that very reason - Couldn't make a good one, as he's a rather poor PL in my opinion. Others are better in CC, and he's a waste just for AT.

I was considering Karandras, Jain Zar and Asurmen, but I couldn't fit them into a warhost.
Fuegan and a unit of fire dragons is just to much for 1500p, and he does not really help his fire dragons.

I also have a suggestion:
Dark Eldar allies, the army must include 1+ primary Eldar detachment, and 1+ allied Dark Eldar Detachment.

Oh, I also voted, I think we have a clear winner this time, not saying which one  :-X

I thought about doing a few allies competitions for DE, Harlies, and Corsairs. But I was worried that it would exclude too many would-be entrants and/or voters who don’t have the relevant codices or IA supplements. –It’s the same reason I have been ruling out use of any fortifications.

I’ll park that idea for now, if you don’t mind. –But thanks for the suggestion.

Well i belive this will be intresting to see, i mean for once if we have a clear winner it will be good ><, I would bet on volatil or fenris for that, that's the most balanced list in my opinion.

Ah and yeah if you do some DA ally i'm sorry but i won't be able to join in :/

Well deserved. It's the one I voted for! My list was a little repetitive from my past entries, while yours was definitely original and the best representation of a Phoenix Lord list.

Honestly, balance list don't necessarily win too many games. Fluffy type list wins more than balanced.
