Warlord Decks on the Duck


from Mutant Dave on the Deveranian list
Hey all,
This is the Gahid deck I took to a tournament (10-12 player double elim) a couple weekends ago. I took second, and now have Crown of Command and Cloak of Protection for my troubles.

Characters: 27 (*# denotes starting and # starting)

1 Lord Gahid Rellion *1
3 Baudwyn Troubadour *2
3 Squire Kelanor *1
2 Sir Euain
2 Lady Beatrix *1
3 Rhydin *1
3 Bishop Koenrad
2 SS-saurth
3 The Beast Knight
3 Count Damien
2 Master Anandale

Items: 15
3 Ring of Vorn
3 Warhorse
3 Bruntor's Helm
3 Full Plate
2 Riding Horse
1 Handaxe

Actions: 12
3 Meet at the Inn
3 Leveled!
3 Charge
3 Loyalty's Reward

Total of 54 cards.

Notes.. The Handaxe is the only meta card, as I hate playing against clerics. Replace with a third Riding Horse.

The starting line-up has a great second rank. a 15 AC Rhydin holds the Ring of Vorn better than anyone else, and the heavy hitters (Damien and Anandale) are up front fast with Vorn, Charge, Warhorse, and Riding Horse.

Meet and Loyalty's Reward get either the movement cards or the heavy hitters into your hand so they can be ready for turn 2. Leveled is just nice because you have a lot of Lvl 2's in the deck.

The deck takes a bit to set up, but is powah when it is. I knew Rathe would be present in abundance, and was ready for him. Anandale stayed straight in the front rank to spend Rathe when he moves up, and then my unspent Damien slices him up. Koenrad is the biggest target, as he makes Anandale hard to hit. So, the opponent always goes after Koenrad, leaving Anandale and Damien alone, while your little guys whack on his front line, so Damien, Anandale, and Gahid can finish the rank breaking.

Rhydin with the Ring of Vorn, and SS-saurth, also become big targets, again diverting hits from Damien and Anandale. I'll gladly send any of them up front to split hits from my main guys. :)

The only losses I had were against a Xod deck. I just couldn't get the rolls to kill his multi-wound, high-AC guys..
