Vlad3 - 50pt Ponies

[CornishJourneyman]

Hey all,

I recently traded all my Cygnar stuff (was only £50 shy of the whole collection), for the very best of the Khador army choices... As a swan, I loved playing cavalry heavy eStryker.

The moment Vlad3 came out, I grabbed one off the shelf, and had a go with him. I love how he works, and have created a 50pt horse themed list:

Vlad3 - 50pt Tier 4

Vlad3
>>Drago (7)
>>War Dog (1)

Khador Gun Carriage (9)
Iron Fang Uhlans (Max) (11)
Iron Fang Uhlans (Min) (7)

Man-o-War Drakhun (Dragoon) (5)
Man-o-War Drakhun (Dragoon) (5)

Very good trade and I'm really looking forward to read about your experience with Vlad3 and the Gun Carriage! My current testing lists: http://j.mp/vlad3

Any other thoughts?

Going from what others have said, Vlad's tier list can struggle with heavy armour. As such I think a juggernaut will be a big help towards adding some high powered attacks. Also, with two initial attacks he can side-step twice

I would drop the dismount on your drakhuns and minimise that max unit of ulhans for the 6pts you need for the juggernaut. That's actually the exact 50pt list I want to run then

Hope that's some useful food for thought at least!

Cheers,
Dave

EDIT: Actually, I think you're a point short, so you can keep one of the dismounts

I'd actually say drop the carriage and add two berserkers (since your list has a free point). You lose a couple of ranged AOEs but gain some cheap, hard hitting jacks, who are more survivable, and worse comes to worse you can load one up with focus and charge it at some infantry, potentially taking out a whole chunk of the enemy lines for your horses to charge through.
