So I have a 35 point tournament coming up, and one of friends all but dared me to bring Connie as my caster, after I made a sideways comment about how it might work. The more I look at it, the more viable it looks and this is starting to scare me a little.
Anyway here's the list:
Constance Blaize
Theme: Storm Division
-Gallant
-Stormclad
Stormblades
-UA
-Storm Gunner (x3)
JR (Free)
-Charger
My thoughts are that advance move plus Crusaders Call means that I should manage to get the alpha, and when I do, if I pop both my mini feat on the Stormblades and connie's feat plus arcane shield from JR, my opponent should have a really hard time responding. Against gunlines, I pop all my defense on the advance turn and then swing for the fences.
What do people think? Is this actually decent? Dare I say, mad enough to work?!

I think she plays better at higher point levels. 35 points seems like a real kick in the teeth to her. I played her last weekend, two 75 points games, and it's a lot of electric dudes to get rid of. I don't even think I cast a bunch of spells, just Crusaders Call a coupl'a times and feat.
I do think she wants a Lancer for repudiate, it's one of her best spells and a real reason to take her.
Anyway, at 35 points I think she's prolly a waste. You might want to go whole hog, drop junior, and just add more stormdudes. She's pretty tanky at 15/17 and the feat so adding more dudes is prolly just as good as arcane shield.

I might do that or go to one of my other lists. I also had a hilarious Jakes2 list that should be fun to play. The tournament is supposed to be a casual, potentially get new people into the game, tourney, so I don't want to bring like Maddox and as much hitting power as possible. Also this is rapid fire working through the first crossroads season, so every army is getting the Holden UA for free.
This was the Jakes2 list:
Jakes2
-Gallant
-Stormclad
JR
-Charger
Versh
Thorn Gun Mages
Does this look more viable?

If it's for fun, play points down. What the hell. |
