Ossyan 50pts - Shooty Elves

[Jabbdo]

Would a list like this work in any way?

Ossyan +6
Hypnos 9

Max Invictors 10
---> Standard and Officer UA 2
Max MHSF 8
---> Commander UA 2
Max Nyss Hunters 10
Stormfall Archers 5
Stormfall Archers 5

Aiyana and Holt 4
Arcanist 1

= 50

Basic idea is that on feat turn (usually as soon as everything is in range, possibly the turn after that to get aiming bonuses), you either get a caster kill with the MHSF if possible (unlikely, but a possibility) or you waste a ****load of your opponents army, and then just protect Ossy and win through attrition.

Could this work?

Looks pretty solid to me. Between the Stormfalls and the MHSF, warjacks in range of the feat will be vaporized. The only problem I see is that except for the Invictors, the units are low ARM and therefore susceptible to blast damage. Maybe fit the Artificer in somehow to protect them?

[Murkhadh]

Looks good to me as well

I really like this list. Ive been meaning to try out the Nyss hunters for a while now... I may try something similar. Code, what would you drop in order to fit the artificer in? Maybe drop a unit of SA and also add a MHA?

Yeah, I think so, as much as it hurts to lose those brutal shots. Unless you went with a min unit of Nyss, but that would be silly, since that's the unit you want to try out. And I certainly wouldn't go with a min unit on anything that's bringing a UA.

I wonder about taking the Magister over the MHA. The knockdown would be nice to ensure everything hits.

I've never been a fan of Ayianna and Holt, but I think they'll destroy in this list, good call.

if I were to do anything it Would be to find space for more jacks, simply to take advantge of chronomacer and give your arcanist more of a role in the army, but where it is right now this list looks pretty good. good luck with it.

really? Did You mistype that or did I misread it?

So magic weapons and more damage is bad?

I guess I've just never seen them used effectively, I see their merit, but for their points I usually just take something else

[Drakor]

Keep in mind the Nyss Hunters don't benefit from Ossy's feat, doesn't make them a bad choice by any means.

So you don't face a lot of menoth or incorporeal models?
