2000pts
Haven't worked out the 1k spit yet but I assume I'll have to juggle a couple of goblins between units to make it work.
The basic plan is for the 2 big units to stand in the middle attempting not to die while the rest of the stuff causes as much havoc as possible. The way I see it we'll have 1274pts of the army in blocks at the back, hoping that the chaff can do 1000vps of damage, and not let much through to hurt the goblins.
It'll probably be a miracle if it works, but it seems a lot of fun. Any thoughts?
This seems like a pretty viable army, but I don't think you'd want to just sit back with your blocks and hope that the chaff can take on the entire enemy army by itself. However, a unit of 50 NG with nets supported by multiple pumpwagon and chariot charges is quite the nasty prospect in combat. Use your army synergysticly and you'll have a lot more success.
Also, Bad Moon Banner is simply not a very useful item, especially given its cost and the fact that it means your BSB will be naked.
Cheers for the feedback, I was thinking the bsb was left a little vulnrable, but I thought the banner seemed worth the points, buying those effects separately (for units that can have one or more of them) seems to come to 80ish points. Plus due to the low LD in the army I thought both blocks being stubborn would be a good idea. What would be a better way to arm him?
