1  Kings of War / General KOW Discussion / Re: Newbie alert - Choice questions from KickStarter on: June 25, 2012, 10:04:10 pm
Ok, after much crunching of numbers and nudging of my remaining brain cell I think I'm heading in the following direction:

Pledge 1: Veteran + $125
Pledge 2: $175

The lists:

List 1 OGRES - uses 4 BOGOFs plus the Ogres from the Veteran set.
1 Ogre Hero   Huh
3 Ogres M + Cmd   140      M = Melee
3 Ogres M + Cmd   140
3 Ogres M + Cmd   140
3 Ogres M + Cmd   140
3 Ogres R    140      R = Ranged
3 Ogres R    140
10 Gargoyles   90
10 Gargoyles   90
10 Gargoyles   90
3 Fight Wagons   150
3 Fight Wagons   150
3 Bogies (Trolls)   120
3 Bogies (Trolls)   120

List 2
1 Cursed Pharaoh   200
10 Mummies   300
1 Mounted Standard Bearer   30
40 Skeletons   135
40 Skeletons   135
60 Zombies   225
20 Wraiths   380
20 Wraiths   380

Made from 2x Undead Army sets and swapping the 40 Ghouls & 40 Revenants with someone for the 40 Wraiths (I realise that's a 2:1 swap but if Mantic can show the love so can I!)

In total that leaves me $50 which is just enough for a tee-shirt and the printed Expansion & Supplement books.
Plus of course a lot of other miniatures!

Thoughts or comments on the lists?

I created a second account and pledged an extra $175 in BOGOFs so I now have the Veteran set plus $300 to play with plus another set of the freebies.

Hi all,
I've played wargames but none of Mantics or GWs.
I really liked the minis and deals available in the KickStarter campaign so I've dived in and pledged for the Veteran package plus another $125 for BOGOFs (and maybe a t-shirt).

Having done so I do have a couple of ideas in mind but no clue how to actually achieve them.
Firstly an Ogre army.
I know I can have the Ogres with Hand Weapons and Ogre Shooters lead by the Ogre Hero.
What are your recommendations for army structure?

With the amount of freebies with the Kickstarter I can also look at building a 2nd army.
Celestials are the obvious choice but what do you all recommend as being a counter-point to the Ogres (but without being a horde army)?

So, in summary, what BOGOFs should I go for?
