Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Bullets and Arrows
Kato Katsuro 200
Ashigaru Harquebus x3 180
Ashigaru Yari x3 120
Kaemon Awa 120
Total 620/24 (Drop a Yari and Harq)

Silver Kilts
Alastair MacDirk 110
MacDirks x3 240
Gilbert 105
Raelin 80
Total 535/15

Dinner Date
Tor-Kul-Na 220
Wo-Sa-Ga 135
Nagrubs x5 150
Total 505/19

Gorillas in the Mist
Nakita Agents 120
Gorillinators x3 270
Agent Skahen 120
Total 510/13

The last army can be especially fun. Order markers are crazy as you have the oppurtunity to move Gorillinators on just about every order marker. All figures have some sort of defensive power which can be stacked with the Nakita's Smoke Powder.

None of these armies (except maybe the first one) are slightly competitive, but they're all loads of fun.

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Any army that is completely made up of zombies is fun IMO. Also the vampire armies or the werewolf/wolf armies look like they will be tons of fun with the new Lord, even if they may not be competitive.

Anything from the new pack. Seriously, it looks like a hoot.

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

I really enjoy:

Mohicans x2 140
Mittens 120
Spiders x2 80
Wyvern 100
Brave Arrow

Lots of fast moving things that might just win, but are ridiculously fun nonetheless.

Jugger

It's like football with swords or LARPing without the geeky stuff. In other words, it's awesomely perfect!

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Two of the most fun things to do are moving your opponent's figures around and periodically removing their order markers.

Spider armies get to do both!

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

this is an incredibly fun army to use on a huge map with lodins!

15x dividers (50)
su-bak-na (160)
Ne-Gok-Sa (90)

1000 Points

if you want drones just switch out subakna and put in 15 drones and the hive for equal fun!

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Well for the sake of the fact that I love this samurai build and I want it to be easily available to me, I give you:

Izumis with Range
Tagawa/Kaemon
Izumi
Raelin
TSAx3
Fire Elemental
Isamu

The Tagawas or Kaemon team up with the FE and Isamu to deal as much damage as possible. Death isn't feared by them. The Izumis stay by Raelin while Archers rain death and use their newly found 5 defense for great cunterstrike potential!

My customs.
NE Ohio Tourney - TBA
SW Ohio Tourney - NHSD 550 points
AotV - Colliding the minis of AotP with the world of HS.

HA! That's great, not to mention the predators bond

I also like Gorillas in the Mist from Rednax.

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Brave Arrow 50
Mohicans x3 260
Venoc Warlord 380
Elite Onyx Vipers 480
Theracus 520

This is a really fun one to play. Looks wimpy at first sight, but that +2 move lets you take control of the board. I like to have Theracus (move 9 flying!) carry Brave Arrow out first turn and get him in position and possibly grab a glyph. Extra move also makes it much easier to engage the Mohicans and get your bonding with your already positioned Brave Arrow. THWACK!

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

480 Zombies x8
20 Marcu
500 points, 24 spaces. (Drop a Zombie.)

When you have 24 zombies, what could go wrong?

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

Phantom Knights x3 210
Dividers x7 350
Total points: 560

Knights take out particularly difficult Ranged threats, Dividers steamroll. Think scalpel and battle-axe style fighting, Knights being your scalpel, Dividers brute force. So much fun to use.

Re: armies with the fun factor on high

The most fun I have ever had plaing HS was was when I used:

Thanos 360
spiderman 520
kelda 600

In that tourney I only lost to:

Incredible Hulk 370
Thorgrim 450
Kelda 530
Raelin 610


Thanos takes the height and takes out the big badies [the heros] while spidy tkes out the sqads. Kelda takes the rear and heals the other two.
