Lord of the Feast threat range trivia

So at the end of yesterday's article on using Shifting Stones I asked a question about the potential threat range of the Lord of the Feast using the Slingshot tactic we discussed:
What is the furthest distance from your board edge that you can project the Lord of the Feast on your first turn, if you assume that he hits a target with his raven?
a) 34"
b) 35"
c) 39"
c) 41"
d) 43"
While there are lots of ways to get some added threat range to the LotF, it often will depend upon using warbeasts or spells that you might want to use for another purpose.  In order to be most practical with this, I wanted to use only the Shifting Stones and the LotF, but admittedly the greatest threat range is with a specific warlock.

Shifting Stone Tactics

After my tournament performance on Sunday I realized how mean my pBaldur list can be.  While to a certain extent the components of the list are what make it work, part of it also has to do with the tactics that I employ regularly with the list as I use it.  One of my favorite aspects of the list are the Shifting Stones.  This unit is absolutely amazing for Circle and they're even better with Baldur.  What makes them so great?  They give my constructs a threat range that rivals most heavies in the game - especially when combined with the animi and spells present and available in the list.  Today, I will use some images from Vassal to illustrate my two favorite tactics with Shifting Stones: the Slingshot and what I call 'the Feint'.
