Dark Bjoern Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Some month ago an Elder player at my local GW store insulted us SW. He meant that we will smell like wet dogs if we came into a rain shower. All the time he was able to escape my righteous fury but today he had run out of luck. My GC showed him what it means to anger a SW. It was a 1500 points Take and Hold mission. I humbled him three times on the field of honour. 1. I took three of the four mission objects 2. I smashed his army completly. Not a single of his Space Pixies escaped alive. 3. I lost only 119 points. I used my approved list (modified with the vehicle cost from the new C:SM) Rune Priest: Frost Blade, Runic Charm, Rune Staff, Wolf Pelt Ven Dread: AC, DCCW, HF, EA Dread: AC, DCCW, HF Dread: TLLC, ML Dread: TLLC, ML 6 GH: Bolter, Meltagun, PW, PF, Frags, Razorback: TLHB 6 GH: Bolter, Meltagun, PW, PF, Frags, Wolf Totem (i used it like ever cause i had forgotten that it´s counterpart was no longer included in the C:SM), Razorback: TLLC 9 BC: Flamer, PW, PF, Rhino Land Speeder Tornado: AC, MM Land Speeder: HB He used a list that i had never seen befor used by him. To be honest i was a littlebit disappointed by it. Rune Prophet Autarch with Swooping Hawks wings 2x5 Pathfinders 2x5 Dark Reapers 10 Dire Avangers with Excarch 10 Banshees with Excarch 6 (?) Swooping Hawks At the end of the fifth round his whole army was annihilated. There´re no highlights to report. I crippled one squad after an other. Cause of his army choises he had not been able to start a coordinated assault. Normally he used an Avatar, a Phantom Lord and at least one Falcon.

Grey Mage Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 As an eldar player I think he was trying to cheese... and it didnt work. He probly set those dark reapers up in the back hoping to take out a whole squad of marines a turn, the snipers to slow you down and use a 2+ cover save to keep them alive... what he thought hed do with that autarch I have no idea, not in that list anyways. *sighs*. Well done.... eldar always suffer when they try to take cheese lists... make them pay for it every time.

Vassakov Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Have an Ale - the treacherous Xenos need to be put in their place. An insult against the any Astartes is foolish... against the Wolves, a Death wish.

Dark Bjoern Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 The Rune Prophet was attached to the Banshees and the Autarch to the Swooping Hawks. I don´t think that it was a cheesy list, it was a stupid list. He knows that i play a mechanized army. I think with a Wrath Lord and an Avatar he would had have more success. Ok, not that he would even then had have a chance to win.
