Argh! Please Help! Tournament tomorrow-What goes w./Braxas?
I am pretty darn sure I want to use Braxas in the 400 pt. DFW tournament tomorrow, but I have not figured out what to take with her.
I have tried: Braxas.........210 Mimring........150 Arrow Gruts....40 and Braxas........210 Krug...........120 Arrow Gruts..40 Swog Rider...25 Both times it seemed I got lucky and Braxas wiped out the other armies pretty much by herself. I am most used to orc armies. I took one last year and it was fun, but I would like to try something new... I just don't play enough to have tried out anything else. Comments are desperately appreciated. |

Braxas..............210 Dund.................110 Khosumet............75 Anubian Wolves....75 Seriously, play this army and they'll probably spot you the 70 points that you'll be over. ninthdoc assumes no responisibility if the aforementioned army sucks ass. I've always been crazy, but it's kept me from going insane. |

very helpful...
Netherspirit--I've read that as well. I'm just nervous taking so many 2 base figures as some of the maps I could play on are quite hilly. Maybe I'll try this tonight. I've got time for one game...
Ninthdoc-- Very helpful... EDIT--Ninthdoc--I just squinted enough to read your fineprint--very nice disclaimer. |

Didn't I do that to you back in Feb, also? I think I teased you in your army request thread at the HQ, too. I couldn't break the tradition. See ya tomorrow. I've always been crazy, but it's kept me from going insane. |

all chicks, huh?
Ninthdoc--yeah, and at the tournament I landed Mimring in front of 3 of your bladegruts and rolled 4 blanks! Arrgh! Most humbling tournament moment. We were the only draw of the tournament. Maybe I should bring Mimring for revenge...
Grungebob--yeah, maybe if I lead out with Nikita and leave them like supply dumps across the board I could have Braxas hop around always landing adjacent to an agent for protection. That might work better than Braxas runs out ahead of everyone and keeps spitting til she dies. Just leaves 70 points... |

I would go with either Deadeye Dan or Johnny Shotgun. Or you could go with Theracus and Guilty. You could carry around a Nakita with Theracus, which would help protect him/her from being picked up while setting up in a nice high local. And guilty is a decent filler. Or you could go with the Knights, use them as a melee line of defense to keep your opponent from engaging Braxas and negating the Nakita's protection. I like those any of those options. |

Doesn't this go in the competitve army section?

hey, yeah!
That could get a Nikita pretty far ahead to make a grab for a glyph.
Yeah...hmmm...I'm thinking I'll try something like this tonight. And Theracus can fly! That will be helpful for the castle breech map I'm playing tonight. Thanks for all the input folks! Would Braxas and Major Q9 be crazy? |
