Upcoming Stuff

Life stuff is happening at the moment and it's taking up a lot of my spare time. That said I'm still trying to make events:

Highlander Good Games Hurstville on the 29th of June

Eric is running it. I am thinking of taking either Rask, Wrastler, Bull Snapper, Gator Posse and a Totem Hunter. Or Stryker2, Gallant, Sentinal, Precursor Knights and a Journeyman Warcaster. The Rask list is painted so that may end up swaying me but I really like the Stryker2 list in the format. He has so much game and the precursors don't see a lot of table time despite being a decent unit.

50 point Steamroller Good Games Town Hall on the 7th of July

It's on a club day but Harry and I are still going (sorry club peeps, you guys should come too). I am running Legion here because I again want to be fully painted and I am really close to being fully painted. Here are the lists:

Legion of Everblight
Standard Army
PCs: 50 / 50
25 models

[00] Vayl, Disciple of Everblight (0 / 6 WB)
[12]  >> Typhon
[09]  >> Scythean
[09]  >> Scythean
[08]  >> Seraph
[05]  >> Naga Nightlurker
[02] The Forsaken
[02] The Forsaken
[06] Blighted Nyss Legionnaires (9 grunts)
[03] Spawning Vessel (6 grunts)

Legion of Everblight
Machinations of Shadow (Vayl, Consul of Everblight)
(Tier 4) 
PCs: 50 / 50
27 models

[00] Vayl, Consul of Everblight (0 / 6 WB)
[09]  >> Ravagore
[09]  >> Ravagore
[08]  >> Scythean
[08]  >> Angelius
[08]  >> Angelius
[02]  >> Harrier
[01] Blighted Nyss Shepherd
[01] Blighted Nyss Shepherd
[01] Spell Martyr (1 Martyr)
[06] Blighted Nyss Legionnaires (9 grunts)
[03] Spawning Vessel (6 grunts)

I really dislike that Vayl1 list but I need a list that can deal with colossals and compromises have to be made to my Vayl1 list in order to do that. The hex hunters are a much better unit the way I run the list, stealth and the high DEF help and the higher SPD makes them much better at delivering chiller but they cost two points more and with the Naga in the list I don't have two points. The Seraph in addition to slipstream provides some important ranged attacks. With incite it's POW 14, RAT 7 and has Strafe. If you roll 4 shots it can cripple an ARM 18-19 heavy all by itself, kill it if your dice are above average. Even just with 2-3 shots it can still put some serious hurt out as well as slipstreaming your heavier hitters. The list I like with Vayl1 has no Naga, Hex Hunters instead of Legionnaires, a shredder and a shepherd.
