| 378 - Purple Worm x2
57 - Vampire Aristocrat
48 - Yuan-ti Abomination
483 - 4 Activations
Map: Dragondown Grotto
Purple Worm and Abomination synergize very well with each other. With the Abomination, the Purple Worm's poison is at DC 29. Even AoB fails that save on a 13 or less.
The Vampire Aristocrat is a great commander on the Dragondown Grotto map. Any time something takes damage while on the shared central victory area, it has to make a morale save. Any enemy creature that fails the save, is destroyed instantly.
Also 13 points for fodder and whatnot. | |

| My opinion: too much tech, not enough clobberation. The Worms only do 30 non-magic damage on a full attack. Larges or Huges will beat them to a bloody pulp, even when poisoned. You also have no protection against multiple Archmages, who will risk the DC 20 Swallow to pop swords onto your worms. If I lose 2 Archmages but manage to put 3 swords on each Worm, I win.
I like the idea of having the Vamp where his CFX can destroy VP grabbers - but, with the rest of your warband, why wouldn't any opponent just ignore the victory area and kill the rest of your warband? Or stick something like a Helmed Horror on it, no morale saves and good luck dislodging it with a Vamp. | | | |

| At that point, you just swallow the HH.
The Vamp. Aristocrat probably works better on this map at the 200 point level. | |
