Sujoah will go quick against the dwarfs being a 4/4 wasp against 4/4 squads. The spiders will also be quick work and Nilf wont last long against 4 attacks of 4 per turn.

Kato
x3 Yari and Harquebus

Drop a yari. Dwarves dont get their attack and defense bonus, hounds get swarmed, Isamu is encircled or WTFed.

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

I'd take the 20 dwarfs and a hero against 24 Yari/Harq anyday.

3/3 units with 5 attacks will eat through 2/1 units with 8 attacks real fast.


*Edit (I'll just put my response here instead of re-posting)

That big attack of 6 is hard to pull off and I'd welcome it anyways (1 dwarf or even migol can take those kinda hits) just plays into the overall strategy. As far as 4 attacks of 3 and 4 attacks of 4. That's relying on highground on every single one of those attacks.

I wouldn't let you get them, and lets face it. anyone who has ever fielded those units knows your more then likely going to be fighting mostly around your own spawn zone. Especially since the dwarfs can knock through 1 def pretty easy.

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

Dont forget the attack of six and possibly 4 attacks of 3 and 4 attacks of 4. The Ashigaru have a lot of potential. In the hands of a skilled player, they can be downright nasty.

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

This is DW8k time to shine. As long as you don't get a DW roll, he should do well against 1 def with rapid fire. Paired up with speedy assassins, he could do well.

DW8k 130
Tornak 100
Ornak 100
Nerak 50 (Or x2 Swogs)
x3 Blades 120

Blades and Tornak charge in and pick apart yaris trying to encircle on the way, then DW8k and Nerak move up for range and def support. Try to keep the army close together because your opponent will probably be staying in the start zone anyway. Great bonding and speed in this army.

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

Leave the Swogs out. They dont bond with blades.

Zelrig 185 (To bomb the living daylights out of their cluster.)
x3 10th Reg 410 (Range and bulk of the army)
x1 Repulsors 450 (Taking care of DW8K)
Tarns (Coolness factor)

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

Zelrig (185)
Q10 (150)
Atlaga (90)
Zetacron (60)
Isamu (10)

495/8

Gladitrons bane is special attacks (no extra def)

Zelrig would make quick work of the Gladitrons, Q10 would be a decent alternate to ping gladitrons that weren't bunched up and to get some shots on braxas to bring him forward.

Atlaga would move up when braxas goes on the attack, if his bolt fails he would still make a great unit to keep the gladitrons down after the Theracus card isn't an option.

Keep the army separated as much as possible to help keep braxas's threat down. Might even be a decent job for Atlaga to keep him pinned out of range while zetacron or zelrig outrange him.

Braxis would go down either from Q10, if he fails move on down the heavy hitters, he wont last long unless his d20 rolls are insane. It would still be a good match but go entirely on how braxas goes in the game.

Ashigaru Yari x2
Ashigaru Harquebus x2
Kato katsuro
Kozuke Samurai

The Ashigaru army spreads out over 2 turns, making zelrig near useless. then the Kozuke proceed to kill Q10. The rest of your army doesnt stand a chance against eight attacks a turn.
