Iron-Daemon Forge Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Well ticket will be sent on the 22nd of this month. Also just booking my hotel now :rolleyes: As said can not wait for the event. I really need to sit down & read the rule's inside out, been a few thing I miss out/diffrent from 4th Ed (of course) that been eye open. But so far enjoy the new Ed of the game.

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Just a quick note to those attend Heat 1. There going to be a F1 Car racing going on in Nottingham, pretty big/important car race. So better book your hotels as soon as, as a few the price are going up for a start & also there most like to sell out. Manger to get my room book before the price went up. Also it just with any traffic warning as well. GT side things. Look like team might be sorted, going to be part of X-Legion is it all gose to plan ran by my friend Mal on warseer & his might x-legion Imperial Guards :D As for spoting out, just look for the Crusifed Space Marine on a tank or if my Hatebreed work shirt come in on time should be wearing that instead my useing Chimaira shirt (that was great there Icon like the Mark of chaos Undivded). Other wise be there in Warhammer world by 2pm Fri or just catch me about though out the day :D Gaz1858 Posted Today, 01:10 PM Hopefully Heat 3 for myself with my pure Grey Knights. Looking forward to it What do you plan on taken in your Grey Knights & how you found them gaming wise with 5th Ed??

Gaz1858 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 What do you plan on taken in your Grey Knights & how you found them gaming wise with 5th Ed?? This is my list as it stands at the moment: GKGM - Psycannon,Psychic Hood, Hammerhand,Sacred Incense = 215 3 GKT Retinue - Psycannon = 163 Just + 4PAGK - 2 Psycannons, Targeter, Frag =202 Just + 4PAGK - 2 Psycannons, Frag =201 Just + 4PAGK - Meltabombs, Frag = 156 Just + 4PAGK - Meltabombs, Frag = 156 Dread -TLL,EA,Searchlight = 136 Dread -TLL,EA,Searchlight = 136 Dread -TLL,EA = 135 I may take out a few things to add in a 5man IST squad but havent play tested that yet. I went to the 06/07 GT and got to 99th in the final with the only Daemonhunter player above me taking 4 or 5 land raiders. So i was quite happy. I usually play in my local Brighton Gaming Club and so far i havent lost in about 9 games(3 in 5th edition). GT's are massively different though - one example is i played a Dark Eldar player with 18 Lances!!! Everything died quite quickly for me as that is a tourney army. I hate tourney armies!!!!! I always try and take a balanced force. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136653-gt-uk/page/3/#findComment-1664369 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 think your list is pretty good, for an all Grey Knights army. id imagine you would be at a bit of a disadvantage against most armies. your list is pretty good and i bet fun to use, and as you have said you made the GT finals so i say go for it! (NOTE: i played a GK player last year, who took 2 units of Storm Troopers and a Landraider. you could drop a unit of GKs for a couple units of them, as they are a cheap alternative who would probably not be targetted in favour for your harder units. add in a couple Plasma guns etc and you have more stability against gun lines, plus thats 2 more scoring units. if you like) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136653-gt-uk/page/3/#findComment-1665417 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemariont Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 regarding my question about DW, just merely asking if the army is difficult to use, being low in number etc. Is very hard to use, I must play a lot of games to learn use it. Will be better use a mixed wing but.... I´d like to learn to use DW, and I think this is a good time. The problem with DW is in missions to controlate five markers... you know... hahahaha!

Lol, you are officially Bungie's entry into the GT - Which model is supposed to be the Master Chief? :D Is very hard to use, I must play a lot of games to learn use it.

Yeah but the firepower you can lay down whilst controlling the few you CAN capture will keep the others out of enemy hands. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136653-gt-uk/page/3/#findComment-1668942 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkangeldentist Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Having finally got round to playing some games with my pure Deathwing army I can happily state they should prove a challenge for anyone to deal with. Holding lots of objectives is hard but kill points can make opponents cry. 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

turelhim vampire Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Well, I just spoke to a chap called Brian who is the boss of the events manager Andy Joyce and he reckons that, so long as the marine codex is released on Oct 4th as planned it will be legal for heats 2 and 3. Which is good news for those going to those heats. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136653-gt-uk/page/3/#findComment-1669516 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hey for all those not going in a team already why doesn't the B&C put a team in hey? I'm up for it so who will join me in the Legio Bolter & Chainsword Heat 1 team? So guys, are we calling ourselves "Legio Bolter & Chainsword" then? Or are we adding "Heat 1 Team"? Not to keen on the extra bits at the end, simply because its aweful big! :rolleyes: I say just Legio Bolter & Chainsword? We have to return our Throne of Skulls registration cards soon, so can we have some clarification/opinions please? My vote is on Legio Bolter & Chainsword, but if the establishment here want to label a B&C team specifically with a separate name I will obey! (any ideas Kurgan, I know you are lurking out there!)
