    Default First Legion list 35point eLylith

    So, I'm not new to Warma-hordes, just new to Legion. Really like the look of it and I'm hoping to have a Fury Management Army.
    So, here's my 35 point elylith list.


    elylith +5
    -Ravagore 10
    -Seraph 8
    -Angelius 9
    -Naga 5
    Succubus 2
    Forsaken 2
    Forsaken 2
    Swamp Gobbers 1
    Spell Martyr 1

    to up my army to 50 points
    Striders 6
    Strider UA 2
    Deathstalker 2
    Annysa Ryvaal 5


    Limit the number of models to fit under her feat and all are quality shots.

    I would remove both Forsaken and the Seraph and replace them with another Ravagore and 2 shepherds (exception, if you expecty to play against incredibly fast infantry and you need to disengage Ravagore)
    Ravagores usually generate at least 3 fury per turn, and you can easily get in 2 to 3 turns of shooting before the enemy models engage, so a Forsaken doesn't really cut it with them.

    Because of Shadow Pack, the Swamp Gobbers can only protect the Shepherds and/or Forsaken. Unless you intend to use them against another gun list and block LoS completely.
    For that same point, you can abuse Feralgiest (incorporeal minion) as a Targeting Beacon to take down as much High defense Infantry as possible or put a scather exactly where you want it.

    One last thing, you have the wrong point cost on the Strider UA.

    And wrong cost on Annyssa as well And episkopos is right. And spell martyr is not really needed so i would remove it and swamp gobbos and bring in a forsaken so you don't ever have a fury problem eLylyth cant do like normal and let the opponent kill stuff and don't take in that fury I would try to get in a Nephilim Bolt Thrower at 50 points since its awsome

    I would change place on the 2:nd ravegore and striders + feral geist, and I think swamp gobbos are better for eLylyth then the feral geist. I would do the change since you don't really need anything but beasts at 35. And you have an abundant of fury controllers without 2:nd ravegore
    Then i have no found memories of the blackfrost shard. They are kinda crappy. My advise is still to take a look at Nephilim bolt thrower. The pushing thing is really good, you can open lanes to casters, push stuff out of zones and generally just get target model further away from your stuff. One of my favorite things to do is to push trolls away from their Janissa wall so they loose 2 armor Then it has about 50-50 odds to knockdown decently high def stuff(on feat and 2 boosted shots) that is nice as well.

    I can understand the use of 2 Ravagores. As they are both huge range, great power, small aoe's, fully boostable. And during feat turn, they double that damage. I might take that, but I don't like putting all of my points into beasts. Swamp gobbers were my original choice, as blocking LOS is better than stealth.

    Second, the Bolt Thrower is good, but it's expensive. 6 points is a little too much. I'd rather a unit of striders. Originally, before the Naga made it's debut, the Bolt Thrower was the go to. Now, she needs that Magical Ranged attack capability. Not to mention blessed on those weapons.

    Thank you, guys, for all the suggestions. I think I have the army I will build now.

    Now to wait for Epic Lylith 2!!
