pDeneghra Vs. pDeneghra tonight

Jelly-belly and Butterball are ready to take the field (just need front arcs). Their first game will be a pDeneghra mirror match tonight though it's against a new(ish) player with what I feel is a less than optimal list.

I love those guys!
It will be our first large game (we've had some 15-20 point games before) and he'll be bringing the list below. I think it's mostly what he has painted and it would probably be better for him to face up against someone else, but most of the local players are going to see Iron Sky instead so he's stuck with me.
Warwitch Deneghra
- Deathripper
- Deathripper
Bane Knights (Leader and 9 Grunts)
Bile Thralls (Leader and 5 Grunts)
Blackbane's Ghost Raiders (Leader and 5 Grunts)
Bane Lord Tartarus
Gorman di Wulfe
Pistol Wraith
Pistol Wraith
Skarlock Thrall
+ something worth four points
The list I'll be using, proxies and all...
Warwitch Deneghra
- Nightwretch
- Nightwretch
Black Ogrun Boarding Party (Leader and 4 Grunts) - Proxies
Black Ogrun Boarding Party (Leader and 4 Grunts) - Proxies
The Withershadow Combine
Bloat Thrall
Bloat Thrall
Gorman di Wulfe
Orin Midwinter
Pistol Wraith
Pistol Wraith
Saxon Orrik
Skarlock Thrall
Warwitch Siren

I think he'll be blown away but maybe we'll both learn something. Feat timing seems critical as I need my feat offensively and he needs his defensively. His first line will be Blackbane's since they're so fast, but I think Venoms, Pistol Wraiths, Dark Fires, and Orin Midwinter will take care of them. I would be nice if I could prevent his Pistol Wraiths from tagging mine but it's still an exchange he can't really afford.

The Bane Knights will be targeted by a Crippling Grasp since he has no upkeep removal, which effectively takes them out of the fight. The Bloat Thralls can shell the center and the Black Ogrun can clean up. I do have some problems actually hitting Deneghra since I have nothing that can boost to hit besides Nightwretches, but we'll see how that goes.

  1. Really like the Bloat model. I will fix myself two of these as soon as I figure out a list for them. Too bad about the legs :)
