This is the top three AoS lists for Kippers Melee 2023 that took place in the US on the 14th and 15th of October. It involved 47 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.

Before I jump into the Top Three AoS Lists, I wanted to remind everyone of our friendly Discord server where you can join in the conversation with the Woehammer crew and suggest articles or series for the website.

TOTAL POINTS: 2000/2000

Roland Rivera: It’s been a while since we saw a mostly Gutbuster-centric Ogor list like this one do well (let alone take 1st), which I think speaks well of the state of the current metagame.  Good and honest Warhammer is on the comeback!

As implied above, this list is very straightforward.  You have lots of blocks of hard-hitting units, and your goal is to crash them into your opponent and mess them up.  Gluttons are your high-volume attackers, Ironguts are your higher-Rend can openers (with the option for a double fight if you get them into the right target), and the Frostlord on Stonehorn is the durable anchor in the middle that can also sneak behind enemy lines with its Monstrous Rampage.  Between the mortal wounds on the charge (with every unit in this list averaging 3.5 or so) and their combat profiles, they will put a hole in whatever is unfortunate enough to be charged by them.  It is imperative that you are the aggressor, however, as the only unit that can take a punch in this whole list is the Frostlord.

These melee beaters are supported by a couple of casters (including the Frostlord, which has the Arcane Tome), which can spit out buffs or debuffs as needed, and an Ironblaster, which can be used to clear out screens or as a supplementary combatant if it gets the Blubbergrub Stench spell cast on it.  A unit of Gnoblars rounds things out as a screen/objective grabber.  It will typically be guarding the Ironblaster as it advances into range for its Hail Shot (by far its most effective mode of shooting), but it can also guard one of the Ogor units in a pinch.

Overall, I am thrilled to see that this sort of list is still good enough to take down tournaments, and recommend taking it out for a spin, as it’s a ton of fun.

Aaron Newbom: This list is a straight up brawler

The brand new Ard Boyz pack quite a punch and stick around while they do it to build Waaagh points and then utilize them efficiently as well.

Gobbsprakk, combined with andtorian acolytes battallion and Big Waaaghs bonus to cast and dispel creates an incredibly dominant magic force.

Breaka boss, brutes, pigs, this list has hammer after hammer after hammer

I love this list. It seems fun, rock solid, and fun

Joshua Bennett: Hello readers welcome back to another top showing of our favorite murder ladies.  Today we are looking at Dale Johnson’s list and we love to see the non-Morathi witch elves spam. 

This list consists of two of their most reliable casters in the acolytes battalion which allows them the chance of getting the ever needed primal dice. This helps them get blizzard and mindrazor off to make the the witch elves even more deadly. 

Two of the smaller units of witches are armed with the bucklers to make them better for screening.  They will stick around a little longer while you prepare the 20 block to take on whatever is in your way.  Teamed up with the Gladiatrix and the Hagg Nar temple, your witches can hit and wound on two’s with Mindrazor, can be rend two, and damage two.  At three attacks each you’re looking at a lot of damage into anything. 

The avatars are going to run around the board doing some really cool monsters action.  These guys are also totems, issuing commands 18 inches out.  While they deal a lot of damage they also have a decent save with a high wound count that allows them to stick around a while. 

The last thing that makes this list a problem for most lists in a GT setting, is that it scores five battle tactics and a grand strategy consistently that are almost impossible to stop.  Meaning that you have to score everything and also get the objectives or you will find yourself falling behind very quickly.  It’s great to see DOK in a good standing again.  maybe this is a foreshadowing of what is to come in the future?

Total: 1980 / 2000

Beasts of Chaos have settled into a pretty nice groove overall these days – thankfully far from the janky, meta-terrors they used to be – but still perfectly capable of competing.

The core around which most of their strongest lists are built is a brick of Bullgors – unsurprising for anyone who’s played/against them – because of their charge mortals and mad damage spike potential. In a big brick, they’re a super dense wound total too, meaning they’re difficult to commit to and offer lots of rallying potential.

Supporting them are a mixture of Ungors and Raiders for sneaky ranged chip damage and sniping potential and the usual core heroes.

But then Be’Lakor enters chat – ready to shut down the biggest threat to the Bullgors and allowing way more insurance across the double (or in the event of a failed charge), helping the stampeding hammer to survive and carry on their rampage.

Also noteworthy is the chaos gargant, who’s a cheap, fast monster who once engaged can help the Ungor hit above their weight due to the Garg’s -1 to save aura. Losing only to Meatfist, who for sure have the distributed hammers to deal with the Bullgors, this Darkwalkers list successfully dealt with some nasty threats, especially Khorne, for a well deserved 4-1.

Well. Well well well. What have we got here? It looks like a well balance, non-skewy Meatfist list without Kragnos! And it’s only gone and gone 5-0!

So let’s try and break down how. The first obvious synergy is the two Brawlerguts Tyrants in Meatfists – what this means in practice is they’re doing charge mortals equal to on 3+s on dice equal to their charge roll. So that’s already a spicy little duo of pot-bellied rockets. The Firebelly is enjoying a bit of a resurgence in this season, mainly because of his Billowing Ash spell, which is a 12″ aura of -1 to hit, which is obviously fantastic and can now more reliably forced through with primals. You’ve also got the typical FloSH because it just represents too much utility and threat projection to leave home without.

Making up the ‘meat’ of the list are 2 units of gluttons and some Ironguts, who all received points drops recently making them much more viable. And with the +1 to charge mortal rolls from their sub-faction, are all looking for 4+ (while they’re over 2 models). The foot lads can be surprisingly slappy, and the Ironguts mean a once per game double-fight activation where necessary to tip the scales.

Rounding out the list and fitting nicely into a 2-drop, are two little bits of fun tech. Gnoblars are perennially fantastic screens who can punish people for getting close with yet more sneaky mortals, and the lone Gorger is an off-board piece for helping score Surround/Destroy or threatening a back objective. They also have the additional tech for turning off battleshock immunity and rally if they’re engaged, which in concert with another charge can potentially be devastating.

All told, the list clearly just works. It’s big, it’s slightly clever, and it’s frankly very honest. Love to see it going 5-0.

CORE BATTALIONS:

TOTAL POINTS: (1990/2000)

Keegan Graves: Essentially the list is built around superior combat tricks, counter charging, and threat saturation. I have 5 units that do good damage in melee, and 3 that do ranged mortal wounds from spells and prayers. Then the list is designed around enabling those damage sources.

Three clawsteps ahead is the strongest ability in the skaven battletome, by far. It gives the list so much consistency in movement, and so much flexibility in the combat phase.
The extra pile ins, combined with 3” melee on the verminlords, fight on death, and the consistent charges, allows me to pick good activations to get the best value out of my melee troops, as well as extending my melee threat ranges significantly. This also combos well with the warp grinder, who usually deep-strikes a unit of censers to the battlefield, ready to fish for a 9” charge. With 3 clawsteps I essentially get 3 tries for the 9”, 1 with a prior unit, and the censers themselves with a reroll.

The plague priests and wizards give my army essentially a 13” kill box. Skreechs warscroll spell and the great plagues especially can gun down something with an average of 15 mortal wounds when I focus the two. It helps with dissuading people from charging my lines, as well as clearing space for my units to charge.

The list, simply put, just pumps out damage, everything in the army hits like a ton of bricks, from the verminlords to the hellpit to the censer bearers. The list can snowball very fast and is designed to secure games in the first 2-3 turns, to make up for skaven struggling on the tactic side.

Roland Rivera: Another week, another Glottkin list with a podium result – seems like that points cut is making quite the impact. The metagame shifting to be more melee-centric doesn’t hurt, either. This list is an interesting spin on using the Glottkin, however, as Drowned Men is usually not the subfaction chosen for that sort of list, as going heavy on Pusgoyle Blightlords typically burns through your points allotment in a hurry. However, with a bit of compromising on his Fly count, Raymond has made it work.

This list has paired The Glottkin with some interesting dance partners, as it features both a reinforced unit of Plaguebearers (useful for pinning opponents in place with big blobs of bodies) and Rotmire Creed (useful for peppering the opponent with shooting). It also features a Lord of Afflictions with Overpowering Stench as a way to shut off commands.

In summary, this list seems to be the result of mashing the two best-performing styles of Nurgle together to see what happens, but the end result seems to be strong enough to perform well.

Craig Ellis: In terms of support there are 2 GoS with their excellent +1 to wound aura, healing spell & one with Merciless Blizzard (extra primals needed from the acolytes battalion) & Shademist (-1 to be wounded on a unit) on the other making a unit extra hard to kill. This durability is helped with the Krulghast -1 to damage in melee aura. The Generals command trait extends the Aura of Dread trait to 6” away, meaning he’s extending the range of denying Inspiring Prescence, helping with battle tactics and also adding a bit more damage (Lady O’s lifting the veil ability adds +1MW if the enemy is terrified!) Lady O herself provides that once-per-battle bringing back models to every unit in the army to keep stuff around a bit longer, and a 5+ Command Ability deny from 12” away to help deny crucial Redeploys or AoD’s. Her Lifting the Veil is great for sniping foot heroes (don’t roll a 1!). The spirit drain spell she’s been given adds to the anti-horde theme. All of this helps charge up the Black Coach, as the dice ticks up every time a model dies within 12”, meaning he’s going to be getting multiple attempts in the game to unleash the 3d3 MW rocket from the Coach, with its Evocation of Death ability. The Suffocating Gravetide is the cherry on top for those hordes, providing a serious threat to large model count units, as well as being a giant base for controlling enemy movement.
The main weakness is staying in power. If he gets drawn into any attritional lengthy combats, he’s going to lose. Anything getting a successful alpha into this is going to put some serious hurt in, too. Careful deployment is required as there aren’t too many screens unless you count the banshees. It’s will require careful positioning to strike at the right time without being left open to the double turn.

It’s aggressive, has high output, scores well, and doesn’t care about the Nighthaunts main weakness, being its susceptibility to the hit back. Very nice.

Top Three AoS Lists for the North China Open

Roland Rivera: Somewhat surprisingly, a 3-2 list took a podium spot in this tournament. This list is full of oddities and things you don’t often see out of Slaves to Darkness – it has Be’lakor, which doesn’t benefit from the Cabalists subfaction abilities but is nonetheless a potent control piece. Also unusual are the 2 Tzeentch Heroes with no Tzeentch units, which means that their only targets for Warp Reality are each other.

The troops also feature a surprise in a unit of Chaos Marauders, which are mostly overshadowed by the various Cultist units Slaves to Darkness have access to. Furthermore, the Marks chosen are unusual – you usually see Nurgle on Knights (for The Eroding Icon) and Khorne on Varanguard (to maximize their offensive power) – here, we have the reverse.

While the listbuilding here was clearly unorthodox, the results were good enough to snag a podium spot, so maybe there are some hidden gems in this list that need to be further considered.

TOTAL POINTS: (1960/2000)

Roland Rivera: Slaves to Darkness looks poised to return to being a regular podium contender after receiving some welcome points cuts… but this list would have been legal in the previous Battlescroll as well (albeit minus its triumph bid). It’s a highly mobile and aggressive list that seeks to get to grips with the enemy quickly with very efficient units.

The first of those units is the 10-man block of Chaos Chosen, which can overcome the relatively low Movement characteristic on their warscroll by using Slaanesh’s run and charge command and the Warshrine’s 3D6″ charge prayer for Slaanesh units to zoom up the board and engage. You can do something similar with the 20 Slaanesh Splintered Fang. The Nurgle Varanguard function as both a hammer and an anvil, as they are a fast, durable unit against virtually any form of damage whose output can be greatly augmented using buffs such as Daemonic Power and Hoarfrost. Lastly, a couple of units of Untamed Beasts provide cheap, fast objective grabbers and screens to help you dictate engagements.

The list is rounded out by the mandatory Chaos Sorcerer Lords for access to the aforementioned buffs, as well as the do-everything Chaos Lord, who is a Blizzard-casting Wizard, a Priest that can get you some extra command points and marks your Cultists Slaanesh, and a hard-to-kill General that can potentially steal objectives from your opponent via the Conqueror’s Crown. I am very much a fan of this style of list, and I am happy to see it do well.

Danny Wadeson: New battlescroll who dis? It’s Gareth Parnham with the new and de-proved Soulblight, and he’s not even tried to prove that zombies are still too good, which is disappointing. Instead, he’s opted for the rarely seen triple threat of Neffie and not one but two Vlozds. There’s also msu chaff, which will never be bad in Soulblight, and a Corpse Cart which I imagine is primarily to help ensure Neffie gets her unrendable spell off (as it provides an additional +1 to the existing +1 LoB vamps who aren’t in combat get) – given it’s crucial to the survivability of the 2nd Vlozd – given the first one still has Cloak of Mists.

Losing only to a Boulderhood Ogor list – which I imagine had some good charges and therefore MW output – the perfect way to not give a heck about something being unrendable – proves this quite original list type has wings. Big, flying, self-healing unrendable bases, combined with good spell casting and Neffie’s re-set up shenanigans means It’s really hard to counter-deploy against this army, and it can provide so much forward pressure while the msu chaff just pop out of gravesites onto objectives. Very interesting for an early success post-battlescroll!

TOTAL POINTS: (2000/2000)

Dalton Kahle: This list isn’t a typical gitz trogg list, instead of using multiple units of rockguts, he chose to use a big block of them supported by a sloggoth, which is almost an auto include in a troggoth list, and 2 dankholds which I believe he was using the snufflers for, making them extra tanky, along with them being super good at killing things. Troggboss is there for the bonus attack and all out attack, and then the little wizards are there for the realm spells, giving high rend or low to hit or wound with hoarfrost, and killing anything close with merciless blizzard, along with the moonface mommet making anything that gets close regret being there when the Troggs swing back. Killy, tanky, and hard to remove with the double healing, makes it a hard list to fight and survive against

Peter Dixon: There’s never “a lot” of tech in an Ogor list, being one of the more direct of factions to play. But the idea behind my 4-1 list at Trouble at Mill revolved around trying to make my Frostlord survive the inevitable glut of Merciless Blizzard casting Skinks and Vampires by giving him the Polished Nullstone Pebble and using the Stonehorn Monsterous action to land in the middle of the opponents army. People are much less likely to cast 4d6mw spells at you if theres a 50% chance that the spell bounces back onto their units… who knew! Apart from that the game plan was setup aggressively and go first, using Beastclaw raider units frankly insane movement to pin as much of the opponents army in combat off all of the objectives. Then in turn 3 whatever was left of my army ran away like little cowards completing the battle tactics Intimidate, Savor the taste and Surround and destroy in any order. This plan worked flawlessly until the final round where on the Battleplan Icefields, 2 out of 4 of my Stonehorns failed their charge and took a load of mortal wounds for my trouble, and then loosing the priority roll and getting doubled by 6 Varenguard and 10 Chosen. 😛
