First of all, congrats!

Second, critics - your Wild Rider is illegal, cause they (Wild Rider kindred) can't take Magic Armor (I mean that Enchanted Shield prolly not Spear, however it would be cool to bring 2 spears :D ) besides Helm of the Hunt (See F.A.Q.) or Magic light armor.

Why no HoDA with BSB? WIth Shadow Magic it is golden, especially against Skaven mean big stuff.

And your Wild Rider unit was pretty powerful with Noble and Beast magic with 4++ against enemy magic damage, think next time you'll use Vanguard and bring ruins to the pesky Skaven flanks as soon as possible )

P.S. How did you manage to shoot HPA with 36 shots - according to your map it was behind the building for two GG units .

Oops, I had forgotten about that faq. :o Yes indeed it was the enchanted shield. Good job he never had to use it. :D

I didn't take the HOD as I wanted survivability rather than damage output for my bsb. As far as the map is concerned, it is not 100% accurate, the buildings, hills and rivers in battle chronicler are different sizes to the ones in my collection so a certain amount of artistic licence is employed. And yes vangarding would have been a much better option . I will use them more aggressively in the future.
