Age of Sigmar/Tactics/Old/Order/Shadowblades
Sneaky assassin elves that hate chaos. Useful as an allied faction for Order armies, but you can make an army solely of these guys if you're crazy enough.
Warscrolls
The common keywords of these warscrolls are: ORDER, AELF and SHADOWBLADES.
Leader
- Assassin: sitting at 80pt. this is your only lonely hero. Hide him in Dark Riders unit to compensate for his slow movement. Use at will, especially against heroes, since his 2,66 damages per turn switch to 2,66-7-99 damages instead. Point wise this is it's only use: against normal units Dark Riders are far superior.
Troops
- Dark Riders: Counts as Battleline if your army has the SHADOWBLADES allegiance. An average 0,58 melee damages per turn and 0,5 ranged damages. This unit at 140pt. it's kinda pricey but if used well can make enemy units flee fast. Use units of at least 15 models and attack ranged units first using your impressive 14" movement.
Battalions
No batallions currently exist for this faction.
Army Building
The concept of this army is keeping the Assassin/Dark Riders ratio at 1 hiding every assassin in a troop. Basic 500pt. module is 1 Assassin and 15 Dark Riders at 90€.
1000 pt.
The minimum core tax is 360pt. With 1000pt. deploy 2 Assassin and 30 Dark Riders split as you wish.
2000 pt.
The minimum core tax is 500pt. Same concept as above, just double it.
2500 pt.
The minimum core tax is 640pt. And I think you understood the game here...
