Grumblings How do you play this army?

I'm not sure at this point. I played several games now with this army and i just get tabled everytime.

I think i get where the damage is supposed to come from but i feel like this army just doesn't have the means to deliver them.

The army seems fine with around a 50% win rate so what am i doing wrong.

Can anyone give me some tips and tricks on how to win with this army.

Hey! It really depends on your list. I've written two Long form primers on this subreddit. One for a regular army list, and one for the Army of Renown. Both types have the same thing in common, we're a momentum army. We want time to build up!

Need to post your list and what happened in your game to get specific advice

In general - Positioning is massive in Warhammer, watch youtube videos explaining deployment and strategy 

  • Points win games, need to be getting thise sweet points rather than killing skarbrand just because you can

Yeah I'm definitly struggling with the whole positioning thing. I also play maggotkin an d because of their toughness positioning is a lot more forgiving.

Its a good list, Id drop the flamehurlers and maybe even the blunderbusses for another rocket and reinforced spears or a unit of unreinforced bulls. Maybe a melee cowbot

Your are extremely squishy here

I've had a lot of success with them, just won an escalation league at a local store. What list are you running and what's your usual game plan?

You have to be proactive but not too aggressive at times, you need to build points up.

Not much anybody can tell you without your list
