Hey folks,

i have lots of love for a lot of aspects of this game such as the different zones, beautiful cards with no borders, the strategic and tactical gameplay, warhammer sieging/warhammer online theme. loves it!

Unfortunately for me and my regular gaming group we are not into deck building. For me i don't take a lot of joy in deck building when i wish i did.

It is because i am the one who is introducing my friends/game group this game that I am here beseeching you wonderful people could help me with the following request it would be much appreciated in helping my friends and i play this game.

Please help me make balanced decks for each race with my decks i bought!

I have 1copy each of the following:

Warhammer Invasion Core Set

Assault on Ulthuan

(entire corruption cycle less arcane fire)

Again i really appreciate the assistance and would like to avoid people telling me things such as, if you dont like deck building then this game isn't for you etc...

anyway enough of me being demanding, thank you!

Get the Arcane Fire BP. It's got some neat stuff

This may seem lazy, but try it. (It might stimulate a desire to build decks) Separate each faction's cards. Place the neutral cards aside. Shuffle each stack. Take the first 50 cards from each stack and use those as your mono faction decks. They'll at least be slightly random, if not balanced. But then you have none of the neutral cards.

So, try this. Same as above, but pick the first 40(or 45) cards. Separate your neutral cards, placing all core set and AoU neutrals in one stack, and all corruption cycle neutrals in another. Remove the alliance cards and 'order only' cards from each respective stack. Shuffle. Draw 10(or 5) cards from the stack containing core set/AoU neutrals for each Order faction deck. You should have three sets of cards. Draw 10(or 5) cards from the stack containing corruption cycle neutrals for each Destruction faction deck. You should have three sets of cards. I just thought of this now, so I don't know how balanced it will be, but try it. The Order side will have more support cards and tactics which help gather resources which helps them deal with Destruction decks overall speed. Destruction will have more units which helps keep their Capital strategy a little more fluid. If you want to take more time and separate what feels to be a better stack of neutrals, by all means do so. This is just a fast way to get playing without offering too much of an edge(intentionally any way) to any deck.

check out the decklists on this page: javascript:void(0);/*1279210016421*/

You'll have to substitute for the AF cards you don't have yet, and you'll also have to proxy your power 9 (Warpstone Excavation, Contested Village, Innovation) as they are 3-of's in each deck (or you could split them up and substitute other cheap supports).

Also, you could build a decent Orc list without the Skaven to get another concurrent deck to play with.

If you browse that site for other decklists, make sure you stick to the ones denoted "Single Set" or "SS". These are the decks built from one of each set/expansion/battle pack.

Hey thanks for the suggestions, just tried it on my girlfriend last night, yah no dice lol, BUT i think there may still be a hope for my friends!
