How do you play Tomb Kings (Warhammer)?
I was going to start a new fantasy are and I was looking atmaking a Tomb Kings army but I don’t really understand their game strategy. Can some one tell me how you play them and what their stregnth and weeknesses are?
Please and thank you.
Oh and to anyone who wants to try and make me do a different army, can you tell me what their stregnth/weeknesses are.
I’ve got two TKs players at my local club, so although I’ve not played them myself, I know more or less how they work.
They’re distinct from the Vampire Counts in that Skeletons are the principal Core choice and tend to be fielded in large numbers, supported by Lich Priests on foot and scarab swarms. The “heavy hitters” are the Bone Giant (nasty), the chariot with Tomb King and the Giant Scorpion.
From what I’ve seen, the faster-moving hard hitters hang back to allow the blocks of expendable skellies to tie up the opponent, followed by either a central push or a two-pronged charge into exposed enemy flanks. They fare well against small, elite armies that can’t absorb the sheer mass of skeletons, but struggle against armies that can match and even exceed their regimental size, such as skaven.
They’re a tournament favourite, but with all those skellies to paint, you might want to invest in a short tutorial on “dipping” techniques.
