So my first Age of Sigmar tournament, the opening game will be my 3rd game of Age of Sigmar proper... so this could be a mistake of course!
The list below is basically what I have painted, I do have some options to add at a later time, with around 30 Liberators, 6 Prosecutors, 2 Lord Relictors, 10 Castigators, 2 Lord Celestants all being available for me to use further down the line.
It doesnt have as many spells as I initially thought I would have, but it does have some options, and is a little bit good in several areas.
I expect to come away from today 0-3, but at the end of it I will have a much better understanding of the game itself!

All in all 6 games played with it, 3 solid losses, 2 wins and a very narrow loss overall.
It has some nice bits around it, but has so many drops that it probably gives your opponent too much control of the game early in, plus if they avoid your evocators you dont really have that much else to pummel them with - the Prime is awesome for character sniping mind.
