Great to see that the good old world is being preserved somewhere in a parallel universe. I've loved the traditional version of the game since I was a tween (although didn't fully understand it). Now I've been painting models and assembling new army lists. I decided to go 1000 point armies because let's face it I don't have all day.
Defenders
2x12 archers 6x2 with musicians
18 Phoenix guard 6x3 with full command and razor standard
10 white lions 5x2 with musician and guardian
Archmage lvl4 with dispel scroll and lore of life
20pts left magic items
Strat: mage bunkers in with one archer regiment, Phoenix guard sit back and absorb the charge while the white lions hold off any flankers. Would not use this against another ranged army.
Concerns: too small model count. No chaff.
Options: when facing a magic heavy army if switch the razor banner for the banner of the world dragon. Swap one regiment of archers for
Reavers with bows AND spears to deal with an annoying enemy backline.
Assault
8 Silver helms 4x2 with musician
5 reavers 5x1 with bows only
18 Phoenix guard 6x3 with full command and razor standard
10 white lions 5x2 with musician and guardian
Archmage lvl4 with dispel scroll and the lore of life
Strat: silver helms flank ranged or poorly armored units. Reavers harass war machines or other backline. Mage bunkers in with the phoenix guard that slowly advances waiting to drop the anvil. White lions are the hammer to help tear through the front line.
Concerns: units too spread out. Low model count.
Let me know what you think. I'm just doing this for fun. Keep in mind although I played this game years ago I'm still basically a noob.
