| well thaskor is a mini i just got today and i want to play him. I see that he will be best used the wardrums rules with no speed 2. so using thos rules i made a band for him.
Thaskor 86 x2 HH 90 Kobold Sorcerer 20 fodder
this is for a match to the death, it was for a tournment i would think aobut snig instead.
what do you guys know or think about the Thaskor, by the way if anyone play tests this band let me know how it does caz i dont get to play mini often sadly enough.

| | I've run the thaskor a few times, and have been generally pleased. One note is that (at least for me) he tends to fail saves freakishly often, so I'd not run him with any commander with a rating under 3, and preferably higher. Good commanders of this nature would be the rakshasha, dark naga, Urthok, Lord Soth, and Orog Warlord. Since the thaskor is so expensive, if I was going for additional hitters, I'd prefer something along the lines of duergar champions over helmed horrors, as they are cheaper, and slightly better tuned for offense. The duergar champ's cleave synergizes nicely with the massive damage of the thaskor, as cleaving off of AoO's is fun. | | Call me: W.N.

| | true, but the azars can at least theoretically hurt a chraal, the skeleton archers can't be breath-weaponed, but can't really do much good. | | Call me: W.N. Gobo! originally posted by grim: While he is clearly insane, he does have a point. | |

both true but the archer provide range vs other bands running lots of fooder as well.
all in all i think the blue blue golin would be best. the mind blast can deal with the fodder and they can possible stun a hitter. | | Poor student looking for minis =D | |

| | theres a big tartget on his head and he can take the beating. with with the target on his head the dwarf champs can come in and start beating on stuff cleavin fodder out of the way and most people will still fear the fat mini. could also be good for you if the stun cone works well. | | Poor student looking for minis =D | |
