That's why its so hard to criticize this list. How can you expect helpful comments for a deliberately silly list. Even what is silly depends on what you use normally because we don't know what's silly fo you.

When I play against Lizardmen, I try to minimize the amount of water terrain. When I play against Asrai, I do similar. My Asrai opponents usually pick every terrain piece as a wood and I don't! These questions are more hypothetical, in advance of problems. I have encountered a couple of Asrai who ha...

My experiences may be different, but I have had a lot of joint failure for pinned superglue joints after ten to fifteen years whereas my pinned epoxy joints are still going strong. (pun intended) Thesuperglue seems to become very brittle and unable to survive small drops as it ages.

I haven't got much comment, so I assume that the definition of terrain will not be a problem. Would it be unbelievably beardy for me to use the Very Difficult dense kind of wood for my free wood? The Main rule book calls both the Difficult and Very Difficult features woods, or does wood imply only t...

I guess it depends on who/where you play. Often in tournaments, the lists are completely closed and your opponent expects WYSIWYG and will ding you in Sportsmanship or Composition is it's not and will nearly always refuse to tell you anything about their list, with good reason. A few magic items are...

To be WYSIWYG, a character with spites needs to have them modelled and they need to be somewhat identifiable by your opponent, who may not be able to see your list. A character with a bow, needs a bow on the model, a character with heavy armour cannot be running around in a loincloth and warpaint. S...

I have read the rules and would accept Amarel's arguement from an opponent.


A buckler could be used by a skilled rider as both a shield and a weapon and could be combined with a spear.

A mount is any mount, so could include an Eagle or Dragon?

Thank you Inspector. I'll check that out. I like the idea of separate spites on their own bases. That would make it very easy to ajust the allocation for my various point level armies. Making them all out of GW stuff, so I can compete in tournaments may be hard. Perhaps Warmaster models would do well.

I get to chose the spites for my Branchwraiths and I have looked at the Drycha model and I cannot see anything obvious that is either the Radiants or the Terror.

Perhaps I should have said more compehensive and less ambiguous fashion. :roll:

I can see my opponents wanting to draw this as narrowly against me as possible, given that I'm planning on a Drycha army.
