As part of my new years resolution Im designing lists for all my armies, and then getting the neccescary units painted. Getting fed up playing with partially painted armies. Any help you could give would be most appreciated!

Sorceress-2 Dispell scrolls
Master-Coldone, Sea Dragon cloak, Heartseeker, Enchanted shield, Heavy Armour

I just realised its a couple of points over, so would reduce warrior unit by 1.

As part my new years resolution would anyone have any ideas on making an infantry based army to be more friendly at the same points limit. Pretty much have all the choices available apart from harpies. I seem to create armies which dont work well together or end up being horrendously unfriendly. So Im thinking of having the list at the top for tournaments and creating another for more friendly games.

I don't think your warriors really do much with this list. I would rather see one unit of them with a BSB with banner of nagarythe. It would actually be pretty good, esp with war banner. As it is now, you have too much barely effective core units.

Your cold one units are horribly expensive for what they do over a normal no command unit. One unit is a full 100 points more expensive than a normal naked unit, and the other one has a banner that S6 on the charge shouldn't care about. most of the time, your -3 armor save your wounds have is enough to do the job. If you are charging things where that isn't enough, why did you charge it? Plus what is the purpose of music on a LD 9 unit with a LD 10 character in it that is meant for flanking?

I think that if you do some trimming, and make your warriors more effective, that this list has potential.
