Re: Kurrok the Elementalist - Whats your army idea

Perhaps Saylind would be a good companion for Kurrok? Someone to get him out of tight spots, as needed.

Summoner Wars
Saylind 80
Kurrok 200
WE x 7 410
AE X1 440
FE x2 510

I like "Firestorm Fishing"... I'll have to test that. Back when I figured Kurrok would be 150, I did a lot of testing on:

Casualties of war

80 Deathreavers x2
120 Kurrok
280 Fire Elementals x8
480, 17 hexes

With 30 extra points, it's tough to do anything fancy with the core army there, but the upgrades do get a little kick:

@ 600, add Marro Warriors + FEx2 (23 hexes)
@ 620, add Krav + FE (21)
@ 640, add Marro Warriors + FEx3 (24)

Re: Kurrok the Elementalist - Whats your army idea

I'm really curious about trying Kurrok without fire elementals. I'm tempted to try this out...

Kurrok (120 points)
4x Water Elemental (120 points)
3x Air Elemental (90 points)
Torrin (120 points)
Marro Warriors (50 points)
500 points, 14 spaces

I like the idea of parking Kurrok next to Torrin and getting the Evil Eye defense. I also like the idea of having a ton of mobility with the AE's, and the dependent mobility with the water elementals. The ranged is nice. Also, having even more regenerating guys, namely the ranged of the Marro Warriors is nice, and also has a nice pairing with Torrin.

The cake is a lie.

595/600 points.

With Nilf in the mix Kurrock wont be the only one with a target on his back and OM management will be relaxed. Given that I have yet to proxy anything its all Theoryscape but I'd have the FE out front with Nilf with a AE in front of the WE who will work as range support and the other AE with Kurrock just incase. No matter which OM (NIlf or Kurrock) you can get up to 3 attacks per turn.

I wasnt sure if point values other than 500 were welcomed here so I do apologize in advance if this was misplaced.
I see I'm not the only one who wants to pair the Elementalist with an Ice Dragon

Kurrok - 120/120
Fire Elemental x3 - 105/225
Water Elemental x3 - 90/315
Nilfhiem - 185/500

Agreed. I've only been able to find one set of them and I would like 2 more.

Re: Kurrok the Elementalist - Whats your army idea

I picked up 2 extra water elementals through Auggies.

I would might go:

120 Kurrok
120 Water Elem. x4
180 Q9
80 Raelin
500/8 hex

Im not a big fan of the fire elementals... they just haven't done anything spectacular for me yet, and the WE is the only Elemental with a range...

That second one doesn't look to bad. I might have to try that.

Re: Kurrok the Elementalist - Whats your army idea

I would say that if you had limited availability of elementals (say 2 packs), I would go with:
Kurrok the Elementalist 120 (120)
Fire Elemental X2 70 (190)
Earth Elemental X2 70 (260)
Water Elemental X2 60 (320)
Air Elemental X2 60 (380)
Kaemon Awa/Fen Hydra/Krav & Marcu/Rats X3 120 (500)

The Air Elementals and the remaining 120 could be switched out for Q9.

Another army (with more elementals)
Kurrok 120 (120)
Fire Elemental X3 105 (225)
Earth Elemental X3 105 (330)
Water Elemental X3 90 (420)
Air Elemental X2 60 (480)
Marcu/Otonashi + Isamu 20 (500)
500 points, 13 or 14 spaces.

This could be changed to:
...Water Elemental X2 60 (390)
Air Elemental X3 90 (480)

depending on your preferences.
