So im planning to start TK's. 200pts is always my starting amount.

But i have no idea what to have for the army. I want magic and combat and shooting! lol.

If i feild a tomb king i want him in a unit of tomb guard.

But would a high liche be better?

I will be playing:
Orcs (no gobbos)
Chaos mortals
Lizards
Brets
-some skaven.


I would really apreciate some help in deciding a list that will work. I dont want a all chariot army tho.

Thanks for any and all help

If you plan on playing orcs and lizards a lot, you might think about taking atleast 2 units of 3-5 chariots for flanking. Blocks of skeletons will/should hold out against Skaven and the Brets, as long as you can make sure you have chariots or cavalry on the flanks.

Against the Brets, try to lure them into thinking he has the charge, then cast the Incantation of Urgency on a unit of Chariots or Heavy cavalry. Ushabti look very good against those armies, so I suggest a unit of 5-8.

here is a sample list

tomb king 300
2 lich priests 500
one on casket of souls

1 units of 40 skeleton archers 350
1 unit of light calvary 140

two swarms 90

tomb guard icon of rakath 340
two tomb scorpion 170

screaming skull catapult 110

these are rough points depending on your equiptment choices magic items ect
comes to 2000 pts
use the swarms to shield your casket
archers need to be placed close to both lich priests als near catapult

tomb king should be placed in tomb guard,
if playing defensive use the light calvary as march blockers if attacking as character hunters, dispersion troops
dig the tomb scorpions one if only a few war machines two if lots
i suggest giving the tomb king a great weapon, scorpion armour, collar of shapesh and the death mask of kharnut. if playing a magic heavy army put a lich priest with the blue khepra in the unit also.

if you like this army set up i wil post tactics

I do actually, i do indeed.

However im not sure about a casket. Against my enemies there are to many imnune to pychology units for it to be of good effect.

I also ak two more questions:

1) Only 1 unit of combat infantry? I just ask why thats all.

2) is it 1 unit of 40 or 4 units of 10? Also just a a question.

But any help is apreciated. thanks

One unit of 40 archers is way too big. Try four groups of ten in you can spread them out.

at the most two groups of 20 but against thew armies your playing i suggest one of 40.

when your playing brettonians youll like the no armour save that the casket.

tomb scorpions are basically combat units also if used right
