Why Play Smaug[edit]

Because you are either a massive Dragon or Benedict Cumberbatch fan, that just wants to burn everyone's army to cinders and smile while doing so.

Pros[edit]

  • You will usually only ever have to bring him for a game.
  • He is a really nice model.

Cons[edit]

  • He is the same price as a warhound titan (not including arms)
  • You will have no friends when you play him in any game.

Army Bonus[edit]

You dont get one, to quote the army list book "Having a massive fire breathing dragon is a deadly enough bonus as it is".

Unit Analysis[edit]

Heroes[edit]

  • Smaug: It’s Smaug. That’s all you need to know. 700 points of nuclear warhead that will kill everything on the board. Have fun.
