Hi guys,
I currently play two IS BG's a fairly successful constructs BG
and a far less successful Pally BG.
Happy to discuss ways to improve my or your IS BG!
Kind regards

I have played all 8 factions and have a good grasp on all of
them,
if you need assistance, post your deck up here with what you are
trying to accomplish with the BG (a rush pally BG, turtle Pally
bg e.c.t.) and we can advise on what would work and what wouldnt
:) (and take from that what you will! :))
Also
TROLLS (Rock Defiance) BGs are at the top of IS at the moment

Hi guys thanks for the offers to suggest help with my Pally BG.
Tactics normally revolve around using the cheaper more resilient
champs to contend or grab side fonts (Crusader, Vengeant knight
or NCT) and using the stronger champs (Euan, Magnus, Charger
Knight or Arch Angel) backed up by the angels (for cleansing,
healer and righteous shield) to take the fight to the center
font/enemy shrine.
Hording Nora when possible to setup a power turn using the
double damage that Baneblast inflicts upon stunned champs by
getting one or two champ stunned (Stunning recursion +
Hammerstrike) and then dropping Baneblast.
Currently running the following:
17 Champs
2 X Angel of Mercy (Intensify & Cleansing Aura)
2 X IS Angel (Deflect & Trail)
1 X Arch Angel (Scale Armour & Blessed)
1 X Charger Knight (Crushing Charge & Loyalty)
1 X Crusader (Trail & Thirst)
1 X DMC (Burn & Knock-back)
1 X Dwarven Sergeant (Scramble & Readiness )
1 X Euan (Surge & Impenetrable)
1 X Magnus (Distract & Punish)
1 X Ironfist Agent (Shatter & Shadowspawn)
1 X Ironfist Minister (Call to arms & Invigorate)
1 X NCT (Pummel & +Def)
1 X PoV (Divine Favour & Scry)
1 X Stalwart Defender (+Def & Loyalty)
1 X Vengeant Knight (Antagonise & Defensive Stance)
8 Spells
Bane Blast
Blink
Hammer Strike
Instill Panic
Might of Ironfist
Righteous Deflection
Stunning Repercussion
Unobstructed View
3 Relics
IS Banner
Earthshaker
Guard Tower
2 Equips
Holy Blade
Granite Bracers
Any help with the above would be appreciated
kind regards
Ixios

1st problem I see, is that I don't see Attendant Squire. 1x is
Auto and 2x is reccomended in a Paladin BG. Take out Stalwart
Defender, add in Attendant Squire.
Northern Cross Templars upgrades in a Paladin Bg should be,
Defense and Duel. He isnt ment to be offensive. He is meant to
take care of those problem champs cheaply. (68 nora). Pummel is
not needed. After all you have better Paladins for offense.
I would also get rid of Guard Tower and add another Crusader.
Trail Hallowed Ground is nothing to mock at. And its offensive
capabilities are limitless..

Id agree with above post on all points he makes,
Also, It's down to personal preference but I prefer sapping beam
over hammer strike :)

thanks guys I appreciate the replies.
Regarding AS i had ran him previously but never really found a
place for him, I found that the Dwarven sergeant did it better
but maybe i could drop vengeant knight for 1 X AS.
I've changed my upgrades on NCT thanks for the suggestion.
Going to hang onto the tower for now as working well with Blink
Also going to keep hammerstrike for the baneblast synergy
thanks again for the tips
Kind regards
Ixios

That is a very solid bg, i don't think your prob is bg
composition. A couple things that could be an issue, Do you
suffer from nora issues? It is a pricey deck and i saw no nora
gen, may want to add a miner or nora mine in there.
Also is doomy is very very good, ranged warcry, even warcry 1 is
helluva op.
Do you find you use instill panic much, i ave never used it in
my pally bg and just wondered how it works out for you
Cheers
G
