Warhammer Conquest: LCG Mini Review + deck list



What a surprise for me today. Got to play a one starter version of the new LCG from Fantasy Flight called Warhammer conquest, and I'm hooked. The game plays very fluid and each faction has it's own flavor to it.

The factions that are available from the starter box: IG, Marines, Tau, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Chaos,Orks. with Necrons and Tyranids down the pipeline.  Each of those factions can ally with one of their two chosen factions. IG can either do Marines or Orks, Eldar can do Dark Eldar or tau, etc.

With only one starter set my experience in the demoing was limited, but I can already see potential. I would highly suggest checking it out and reading all the rules as I'm not even going to bother to try and do it all in this blog post.

The deck that I ended up constructing, well by constructing I mean throwing all the cards of the two factions that I could into a deck, was of course Dark Eldar/Eldar. they are the control freaks with Dark Eldar being the more agressive of the control decks, aka, my type of playstyle.

So, with a minimal of 50 card decks and two starters I've decided to construct what I would run as a Dark eldar/eldar control deck. Note: the first 8 cards are assigned because of my warlord.

Warlord:
Packmaster Kith
Kith's Khymermasters -4
Khymera den-1
Pact of the Haemonculi-2
Agonizer of Bren-1
----------------------------------------------------------
Sybarite marksman-2
Incubus warrior-2
Beasthunter wyches-2
Baleful Mandrake-2
Vile Raider-2
Black Heart ravager-2
Murder of razorwings-2
Coliseum fighters-3
Kabalite strike force-2
Syren Zythlex-2
Power from pain -2
Archon's Terror-2
Raid-2
Twisted Laboratory-2
Altar of torment-1
----------------------------------------------------------------
Altansar Rangers -2
Eldar Survivalists -2
Shrouded Harlequins-2
doom-2
Wildrider Squadron-2
Silver Bladed Avengers -2


The premise behind this deck is Control, route and Exhaust. For a more detailed view on what each of the card does go Here.
I really can not wait to play some more of the game and I hope to have even more detailed stuff in the near future.. I swear I haven't forgotten about my blog, I'm just a lazy git :)
