DavidTJ 0 Posted June 10, 2010 I am jumping on the band wagon of whats come to be known as single set warhammer invasion. I am very dedicated to Warhammer Invasion but I only want/can afford 1x everything rather than 3x everything. This thread will be dedicated to all the decks i come Ive noticed whenever I make decks I struggle to fit everything in, which makes single set a much better fit for me. I love diversity which single set gives, and love to chop and change which deck i use very regularly with this in mind I intend to go for the very unusual choice of trying to make decks i can run simultaneously. This means I will step away from the norm of having 9 cards set in stone in every deck (3x innovation, 3x warpstone evacuation, 3x contested village), this will make deck building very challenging in trying to get decks balanced against each other but i think in the long run it will be achievable. To start, id like to begin with what i find to be the easiest deck for me to conceieve and play, just because ive gotten used to what do do resource wise, the Orcs, im going for the standard rush model.so any ways to improve on this deck or other comments, please chime in Units 30 3x spider riders 3x squig herders 3x crooked teeth goblin 3x lobber crew 3x veteran sellswords 3x snotling pump wagon 2x iron boyz 2x followers of mork 2x boar boyz 2x wyvern riders 1x night goblins 1x ironclaw's horde 1x ugrok beardburna 1x clan moulder's elite I love to keep unit numbers very high in aggro decks, especially the orcs, with regards to skaven I feel theres a full on or dip policy, you either pack every skaven you can into your deck or cherry pick the best 1 or 2. They combo too well with each other to not pack as many as possible, with that in mind i just cherrypicked the best skaven rush card and left the rest to use with either chaos or dark elves The weakest link amongst the units in my mind are the iron boyz and Ironclaw's horde. the former has little power, and the latter has a very tricky points cost coupled with relatively low health Support 12 3x warpstone evacuation 3x contested village 2x Choppa 1x totem of gork 1x rock lobba 1x basha's bloodaxe 1x grimgor's camp Very standard support setup, not really too many other options to consider, Grimgor's spike and thick skinned are useless for this particular deck, I find war paint far to situation especially with the ammount of low health units im running with, banna of da red sunz is also very situational. scrap heap looks good but i decided to forgo it currently, as it doesnt out and out increase your damage Tactics 8 3x favour of mork 2x we'z bigga! 1x pillage 1x waaagh! 1x troll vomit Tactics are where the tough choices happened, imo there are like 20 decent tactics to choose from, I didn't choose innovation because i feel 1 of my order decks could benefit far more than my orc deck using it. other strong choices i considered were mob up, foot of gork, rip dere 'eads off!, wolf rider assault. So its over to you, feel free to jump in with any comments, ideas, or criticisms. My other deck ideas are very much planning stage atm, the only other deck ive got anywhere near fully formed is a fairly comical all unit deck utilising chaos and skaven Vague ideas for other decks have been an attachment dwarf deck, a development empire deck, and a corruption chaos deck, Ive only recently got the expansion so i havent really gotten a grasp of where im heading with de/he Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clamatius 1 Posted June 10, 2010 Decent start for a orc list, although you should have posted this in the deckbuilding forum. I don't agree that you need to go all-in on Skaven for them to be worth it - Clan Rats, Greyseer, Elite, Rat Ogres and Deathmaster alone are a fine 7 to slot into practically any Destruction build. The only reason not to play them in this kind of deck is if you want to have a whole bunch of decks made at the same time with no proxies. Iron Boyz are clearly bad. I would think you would be much better off running the 2 Orc alliances rather than those even with no cards from DE or Chaos. Check out ddm5182's Orc/DE list - his solution for avoiding some of the weaker Orc cards was to cherrypick some of the best DE cards and it seems to work really well.

Darthvegeta800 3 Posted June 18, 2010 I like the idea behind this thread, it builds on the strength of an LCG. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
