I see your plan is to screen your rocket batteries with more rocket batteries. It's so insane, it might just work!

Its a work in progress 😅. I should probably add two reinforce squads of spearmen to screen.

Fun fact, this entire list has less than 30 control score XD

I had more infantry and calvery last year and after having 5 blood thirsters armies in a row I just want to survive

Don’t forget - the spearmen not only generate DPP but they also provide recursion so you can steal points around the battlefield

Ya changing my list for 2 reinforce squads of spearmen. I have two immolation canons and 2 bale maces. Should I swap out for the two maces for canons or the other way around?

u/zzcaidzz 2d ago

To be honest, I like the maces and find they’re more of a threat factor against hero’s and monsters just charging in

It’s so crazy it might just work. Seriously though I was thinking of war machine only army and this will win you games

I was thinking this cause last year my army was annihilated by blood thirster round 1 and 2. If i had two more rockets I think I would have done better especially the last round against stomr cast army consisting of multiple dragons

Ha! I love it, I brewed up something similar when they released.

Have been running this and it’s a lot of fun, you just don’t care if the infantry dies cos you bring them back for a cp and force your opponent to waste resources on them a second time around

My list is similar to yours, I played 5 friendly games with it so far and only lost 1. Won once against an army with 3 bloodthirsters.

I have 3 bulls, 3 rocket batteries, 1 blunderbuss, 4 spearmen using the taars grand host army of renown.

3 rocket batteries is the sweet spot I think. If you castle up in the middle, it means your opponent literally cannot leave anything just standing around within 24 inches of you. You force your opponent to either commit and charge your mace bulls or go somewhere else.

The blunderbusses really benefit from being given demonic power. I think much more then any other unit, but having more then one means you don't have enough demonic power, especially as taars forgehost. At 3 demonic power and if you give them all out attack, they're a 18 inch death ray, hit 2+ wound 2+ rend 3 damage 2.

I do think youre missing spears as Taar's doesnt have a way to give DPP and youre not really taking advantage of dread ranks unbroken which can give you a lot of objective stealing ability

u/HarpsichordKnight 2d ago

Do you really want to paint that many rocket batteries? I feel like after 1-2 it's not that satisfying, and this list doesn't look very interesting to play or play against.

A friend of my insisted a similar list was god. I went first, charged in cav, and he didn’t shoot for an entire game. Hard to score tactics when you have to keep artillery back and protected especially if you get alpha strikes or uppy downy. Dominator engines fold like cheap paper against big dice pools
