Strongly considering running this list with fyanna 2
Thags wb 28
Typhon 24
Azrael 21
Zuriel 18
Swordsmen+ua minx 2 30
Warlordx2 10
Incubix2 free
3 very durable beasts benifitting from death shroud and fog of war. Nephilm benifitting from unyielding. Swordsmen get delivered with fog of war. Draconic blessing cycling benifits typhon, zuriel, swordsmen, warlords, thags and especially azrael with 2 pow 19s continuous fire. Many sprays and alot of precision strike. Strong recursion due to feat and incubi. Going to test soon. Thoughts?

I think main advantage of double min swordsmen with UA is free UA. Without it 2x max unit for the same points can give you more. I would also consider some pathfiner unit. Raptors should be nice and I love hex hunters with thagrosh. (min unit with free UA) You can also change recursion of infantry a bit  conflictchamber.com/#ca201b_-0uaCg_aReKcN292929bbbbcoa-b0a-b0b2Legion Army - 75 / 75 points [Theme] Children of the Dragon (Thagrosh 1) Thagrosh, Prophet of Everblight [+28] - Azrael [21] - Typhon [24] - Zuriel [18] Beast Mistress [0(4)] - Shredder [4] - Shredder [4] - Shredder [4] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Spell Martyr [1] Blighted Nyss Swordsmen (min) [9] - Blighted Nyss Swordsman Abbot & Champion [0(6)] Blighted Nyss Swordsmen (min) [9] - Blighted Nyss Swordsman Abbot & Champion [0(6)] Spawning Vessel (max) [7] Removing 2xshredders +1 point solo can give you warlord but you loose 1 free card. |

Do the UA make up for the loss of Precision strike?
Also how much have you tested the list?

Tried this Thags2 list today. Thought it was interesting. It was floated that one or both soldiers become bolt throwers, but that seems really hard on fury. conflictchamber.com/#ca201b_-0uaDg_aLaLaReKbbbbbbfUbabacoa_Legion Army - 75 / 75 points [Theme] Children of the Dragon (Thagrosh 2) Thagrosh, the Messiah [+25] - Azrael [21] - Nephilim Soldier [9] - Nephilim Soldier [9] - Typhon [24] - Zuriel [18] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Shepherd [1] Blighted Nyss Warlord [0(5)] Incubus (5) [0(6)] Incubus (5) [0(6)] Spell Martyr [1] Blighted Nyss Swordsmen (max) [15] |

Personally I'm pretty skeptical of Thagrosh2 in this theme because of the lack of Seraph. Thags2 isn't much of a combined arms caster, he's pretty much all about Warbeasts and wants as big a battlegroup as possible most of the time.

I also cant see what thagrosh2 gains from cotd? He is made for Oracles.

Draconic blessing on azrael is just disgusting! First throw ever on issyrias hemera rolled a 5, 6, 6 and did 18 points. Opponent was in awe and then i threw again crippling it and lighting it on fire. Enjoyed the list against issyria gunline double battle engine. Won on scenario. Ive got to be wary of blinding light though. Never got to chuck the spear again.  |

Eilish absolutely shuts down a lot of what Ret wants to do. Battle Mages die for attempting to use spells on stuff near him and he can Hex Blast off stuff like Blinding Light (or even Crippling Grasp from Denny!). |

Legion tends to lack on the magical weapons/anti magic department. I know we have the naga but im not a huge fan. The solo ellish sounds like a great anti magic toolbox. Its great to have answers to admonition and blinding light.

Sorry for misinformation. Hex blast only affects enemy upkeeps and animi. Blinding light is not a upkeep.

Its great to have answers to admonition and blinding light. Not being a fan of the Naga isn't a wise choice in Legion. The reason we don't have much access to magic weapons is precisely because of the Naga. |
