so it has another year or two of life yet

And when the thread is dead and out - a Necromancer or a Liche will resummon it

[mcharlet]

This really is a great thread... just starting a tomb king's army now and it did help alot. I definitely appreciate the effort here.

I do have one question. Shooty units - is there any real value to archers outside of combat patrol scale games?

[Vallah]

Most definately.

Firstly, the archers will allow you to remove enough models from your enemies blocks to remove a rank bonus or two and hopefully win fights (more or less) on combat res alone.

Seccondly, (and this one is usually critical) the archers will allow you to remove just enough enemy models for us to outnumber them in combat and autobreak them with fear.

Autobreaking with fear is really the crux of TK strategy IMHO.

This is really true Autobreak and Panic
