| Who never lets you down? Who always earns their place? For me: Standard Treeman. 6 wounds at T6 with 2 decent saves means the enemy has to divert a lot of resources to deal with it. Stubborn and Immune to Psych makes it a reliable tarpit, while 5 S6 attacks deals with other monsters and heavy cavalry units. In addition, the Treeman contributes a bound spell and a brilliant shooting attack. Add in terror and you have a great all rounder. A Treeman Ancient is marginally more durable and the addition of spites make it more useful, but it costs nearly 200VPs more so I have to be real careful these days with so many flaming attacks around. Your turn. | |

| Easily Skink Skirmishers. 70pts for a potential 20 poison shots, they take down things 3 times thier points cost, can march block, bait units and draw fire from enemy arrows/magic. They are also perfect for protecting terradons and other important units till they are needed or are within range. | |

| As a Skaven player, you'd think my best unit would be the Hell Pit Abomination, or the Grey Seer, but no.
My best unit is my Rat Swarm. Yes, really.
Against Elf armies it tends to die before it can make any attacks. But in its long and storied career that Rat Swarm has chewed its way through things it has no business eating. Other swarms? Dead. Vampire Counts cavalry? Destroyed them. Units of River Trolls? Ran them down. How? I don't know, but I don't question it.
In 40K, my 3rd Ed Eldar Seer Council fit the bill, but my Tau? Too soon to tell. | |
