Brief Army Overview
When making any army the first thing to think about is what
is this army's core? The core of an Ulthwé army
are Black Guardians and psykers. Ulthwé also characteristically
has very few Aspect Warriors. So to begin, you have to
start with your HQ and Troops selections. I like to keep
the
Seer Council fairly cheap
as it is very easy for their points cost to get out of
control. But I never leave home
without Guide and Fortune, anything else is icing on the
cake for bigger games. For the Black Guardians I like
to have one each of Defenders and Storm
Guardians. The
Defenders with the bright lance gives me a unit who can
shoot straight with a weapon that can take out enemy heavy
vehicles. The Storm Guardians offer inexpensive hand to
hand unit commanded by a Warlock with
Enhance added to the unit giving them a mighty Weapon Skill
and Initiative
of 5!
To round it out, I added a unit of Vypers with scatter lasers. They are cheap, fast and have the magic weapon strength of 6. S6 is enough to take out all but the mightiest of vehicles from the side, and with their speed and range they will get side shots. For a little heavy hitting intimidation I put in a Falcon. I kept it cheap primarily so my opponents will waste firepower on it while the rest of my force does the real work. Basically it is a big, shiny decoy.
