We're doing a 2500 point 1v3 FFA on Saturday, I am with Empire against Bretonia, Ogres and Lizardmen.
So if you happen to be planning to do that on Saturday, chances are you're a friend of mine and shouldn't be reading this
Basically, I am going to try to hold the line as far as I can with Inner Circle Knights and a few character models and a small group of demis, while a Hurricanum and Level 4 mage augments them, while giving them hel(blaster). I am thinking of giving my Warrior Priest the VH Speculum so that if I bump into any serious character models like the Paladin I can possibly take them out in a challenge.
This item forces me to swap STIA with the challenged model.
Warrior Priest has 4 on all STI values and 2A which is actually pretty good in itself.
1.) This only affects unmodified base values, right? Not augmented / hexed through spells or items.
2.) Can somebody tell me if this will do me any good against ogre chars and champs, since their INI is low they will likely strike first. Possibly even killing him (although he has an armor save of 2+ and can re-roll armor saves). As far as I could see, an ogre hero has like ST 5/5 and 4 AT which would be to my benefit, if I survive his first strike.
I gave the WP the tormentor blade so that a single wound will weaken the enemy model permanently in case it survives.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
