I love Hordes and I love Thagrosh.
Thagrosh
Carnivean
Teraph
Seraph
Nephilim Soldier
Harrier
2x Shredder
Every Warbeast save the Angelus and a pair of Shredders: 500 points even. I just thought that was fun. Thagrosh only has 7 fury; what you want to do is have one turn where the Carnivean, Teraph, Nephilim and Shredders attack and burn all their fury all at once. Thagrosh has a defensive feat so after they're stuck in it's a question of seizing opportunity and having Thagrosh laying down the beat-stick.
I'd say this is going to be my core army for my next few games
Thagrosh
Carnivean
Teraph
Nephilim Soldier
2x Shredders //389
I'm not real big on the Seraph just because I think it's cheap and I prefer melee when I play Hordes. Harriers are great for wacking high def targets but taking a 31 point model just for one job seems lame to me. meh.
I love Swordsmen. I like to stagger them and use them as a flank/reserve. The idea being the first few are in base-to-base, get killed, and then the subsequent turn another two or three get a charge w/ 4d6 on the damage roll. Sweet unit. You don't run away from Swordsmen. MAT 7/8 + 2 and 4d6 on the free strike. *wipes tear*. They took out a Cannoneer almost single handedly for me the other day. Someday I'm going to have to suck it up and charge Pretorians with them but I'm justifiably worried about the counter-attack. Did I mention they're Fearless? XD
I like this one, this will probably be my next list
Thagrosh
Carnivean
Teraph
Nephilim Soldier
3x Shredder
6x Swordsmen
Forsaken // 496
Probabably a bit more practical, Fury-wise. And I want to see what the Forsaken can do against my dreaded foes the Pretorians.
