Cool Best General

So my little brother needs help. He is entering a tournament with the event general wars. I already know what army im going to pick but he doesn't. I am asking you to help a kid in need and tell him which general you think is best. If you could also list a army that would be great too.(He wanted to use Ornak but then decided against it, was that a good decision?)

Re: Best General

The single most important thing about putting together an army for a tournament is he should make an army he *likes to play.* Any general (besides Valkrill) can do, depending on the point total. The main considerations are (1) the point total, (2) what he has available to use, and (3) what he likes.

Another thing he should remember is to make his army's order management as simple as he can. He's not going to want to have to do a flea circus with his OMs hopping all over the place.

Re: Best General

Ok the point total is 400 of and we have most of the earlier packs. He loves playing as the bad guys so valkrill counts as utgar.

Re: Best General

Heh. In that case, he should play what he wants, and I'll see him (and maybe you) in November.

Re: Best General

In this thread I did a very mindless calculation that says Jandar and Utgar for the win. Both of them have enough A range units that you can field solid armies of either one.

However, as someone pointed out in that thread, Aquilla has the dwarves, and dwarves rock. I am sure Aquilla is going to win one of these soon. I guess Vakrill could too, Dad_scaper will probably be bringing a lot of Death Chasers, so tell your little brother to counter-draft.
