There are 4 Khemri NAF tourney wins. (3 of those by mr GKen), seeing how few coaches take Khemri at a tourney that pretty much speaks for itself about their competetiveness. They just require experience (positioning is absolutely crucial) and a somewhat different mindset to make them very hard to beat.

i'd be interested in seeing replays from you guys, if you happen to sometimes play on PBeM or JBB.

Yep, I learned it all from you. Surpassed is a bit much (like 0,5 points difference or something like that), once the results from TCK II count the number 1 spot is yours again I'm sure. :D
Funny thing is my league mates are picking up my (ie: your) tourney tactics and using them on their own teams. One of them plays a 16-man undead squad in tourneys, the other had 4 dirty player hobgobs in his tourney cd team. They came 3rd and 5th in the last tourney they went to (M@dhobbit). So the dark side is spreading to other races too.

I don't play Khemri online and I don't think it would be all that special. It just works well in tourneys because most squads have 11 or 12 players making them very susceptible to attrition.

lol. it could be positioning too. with the khemri low mv and ag...positioning is crucial at all times.

I'm pretty sure coop's positioning is OK .. our league is not too DP heavy, so he's got problems removing the opp's

he may have started off wrong too, tried out for the HMP tactic that is a bit like TTM .. not really reliable ..

I'm gonna take those guys to a TR 100 tourny and I was thinking about the following line-up

3 mummies (I know .. it's only 100 K)
2 Blitz (or pick up) Ra's
9 Skellies
3 RR
1 FF

any advice ?

i'd go only 1 blitz-ra and 4 mummies. ST and MB is more effective for the khemri way of winning.....

4 mummies (440)
1 blitz (90)
8 skellies (240)
3 RR (210)
2 FF (20)

hmm OK :D

I think you'll find its the coach that mattered more than the team. Overall Khemri are pretty average - Ken's just a great coach.

My Khemri team progression since the first post

My Khemri Team Progression since the first post...

We´re near the end of our first seasson, I managed to get the 2nd place of the tourney so far, I've lost a few games but won enough to get the 2nd place... I'm happy with my team!
Every other team on the leage have learned the hard way to respect Khemri.

My team Cockerel is as follows:

01.-Mummy (Block, Frenzy)
02.-Mummy (Frenzy, Block)
03.-Mummy (Frenzy, Block)
04.-Mummy (Block, Frenzy)
05.-Blitz-Ra (Mighty Blow, Guard)
06.-Blitz-Ra (Dodge, Mighty Blow)
07.-Thro-Ra (Block, +1AG)
08.-Skeleton (Dirty Player)
09.-Skeleton
10.-Skeleton (Dirty Player)
11.-Skeleton
12.-Skeleton
13.-Skeleton
14.-Skeleton
15.-Skeleton

6RR 8FF

My 4 mummy's rolled doubles so my choice was to give'em frenzy, I'm glad I've done that cause' now almost every block they throw result in a casualty or death (if I'm lucky enough)... well at least I've always have a DP close enough to bring the boot in!!!
