More miniatures painted! Continuing with the Test of Honour game, we have some ninjas to look at. These are the Warlords of Erehwon ninjas, coming with 10 ninjas in the box.
The interesting thing with the ninjas is that they are counted to be armed 2 swords, and have throwing weapons to shoot with. They also come with their own themed quests and item cards for flavor.
To be able to play a ninja warband, you need to also purchase the card pack Clan forces expansion set. This will give you the necessary card to be able to field a 24 point ninja warband.
The warlord of Ehrevon box could be built following:
Ninja master 6 point
Ninja lieutenant 5 point
Ninja assassin 5 point
2xNinja group 3 point
Ninja 2 point
or
Kato the shadow 7 point
Ninja Lieutenant 5 point
Ninja assassin 5 point
Ninja group 3 point
2xNinja 2 point
or
Kato the shadow 7 point
Ninja Lieutenant/assasin 5 point
2xNinja group 3 point
2xNinja 2 point
That leaves 2 points to use on something else, or if you have got the Samurai heroes pack, you can use the miniature of the ninja to represent Kato the Shadow, and add another ninja for 2 points.
The last one is the hail Mary list with activation galore:
Ninja master 6 point
9xNinja 2 point
Ninjas can also be sprinkled in in other list for flavour, or as you can see, be run as a warband of their own. Remember to take their quests and items, and prepare yourself for flavor town!
Have a good one!
Cheers
