Terror tot swarm.....

Yes but it gets tricky.

They are melee monsters so a ranged army will sit back and shoot them as much as possible.

They all generate corpse tokens when they die, so you might soon find yourself swarmed with undead

They have to kill models to get blood and that often takes a few terror tots working together.

The nature of the cards means that running swarm lists get tricky since you will soon run out of cards in your hands and be at the whim of fate. The opposite is also true though and your opponent will burn through cards defending against you as well.

Doable...Yes

Fun.... Yes

A great army .... Debatable but worth a try.

Lilith (and any Nephilim) can only ever generate one Blood Counter per turn. She can burn SS to get them, but thats situational.

Tots can sprint, which means that, even relying solely on flips, about 1/4 of your tots will move quite quickly towards those shooty armies.

Also, with the ability to move up Nephilim by 6" when one in range dies...wow. Dont kill my tots off too quickly or we'll be in your face with much more than you can handle with your perdy gun...

Sounds like fun. And sounds costly in $$ :)

Don't forget, Lilith also allows for a additional card draw, take Primordial Magic as your Totem and get arcane reservoir to allow you to keep an extra card in your hand (draw 8 discard 1 down to 7) and it will assist a little with the control hand.

Waiting for St. Anger to jump in here...

yeah, kinda odd that someone brought up Tot Swarm before he did.

He's been running it since playtest, and it's exactly like you think. They're not as punishing individually as Bane Knights, but they are probably one of the worst swarms in the game for your opponent.
