Glory Points: Building a Nemesis Deck

December 2022·pp. 46–49

THE SHORT VERSION

Dave Sanders offers both a gentle method of replacing weaker cards and a more deliberate process that begins with scoring objectives. Ploys and upgrades are chosen to enable the plan, then actual games reveal improvements, with two worked decks demonstrating how the same restricted format can support contrasting warbands and strategies.

Savage Spirits

The Gnarlspirit Pack combine their own cards with Tooth and Claw to emphasise aggression and their savage transformed state. Chosen objectives reward the same forward pressure that the power deck supports, showing how a Nemesis list can commit to a clear plan instead of selecting individually attractive cards with conflicting requirements.

Deathly Delvers

The Sons of Velmorn pair with Daring Delvers to advance steadily from friendly territory and build an Exploration count. Movement gear and explorer benefits support objective control, while faction-specific defensive and recovery cards exploit the skeletons’ ability to hold their ground as the deck works towards its chosen scores.

Artillery Bombardment

The next Battle Doctrines exercises focus on the Scorpius missile tank as a source of bombardment, counter-battery fire and a target for infiltrators. Special force selection and compact scenarios isolate the artillery’s role, encouraging repeated games that test practical positioning and support rather than a standard all-purpose army list.
