Wolf PupE Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I thought it would be interesting to find out what army is the worst for you to go up against, it could be at your club or tournaments. We live in different places around the world and I thought it would be fun to see how different/ the same this is for SW players. Come on have some fun or just vent about that army you just can't seem to beat :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPetersson Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I've only really played against 4 armies (Necrons/Tyranids/Eldar/Chaos Marines) and the only one to give me grief was Chaos Marines... Not that I hate them as such... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1878981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrik Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 hm lets see, i've been playing wolves for over 2 years now, but i'm not a seasonad player( maybe 5 games or so a year) and only managed to score my first real victory during my last battle, thanks to dark bjoern who helped me make a list. the only armies i face are DA, UM and IG and i only managed to be victorious over the IG. the DA player is a total powerplayer and not that much fun to play with and although i could make a list that would make him cry for his mommy (wait, don't the DA do that already :D ) i lack the models and cash to do so and i'm tired of proxies. i've given them draws enough on the other hand but that was in 4th so yeah, my nemesis would be the DA Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1878985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon950 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Eldar, bunch of pansies that I've only beat twice with my 2 armies. I can't out shoot them or out melee them, freakin' eldar. But I have had very good luck defeating chaos marines with the wolves and tau, except in apoc.

Max_Dammit Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Have to say DE With portals and ships that are open toped they get in CC before you can shoot, and they have upgrades that make SW normal UM's so all the CC is gone.

I think you mean DE, not DA. In my 16 years i had faced nearly every army, some more some less frequent. I agree with Max. DE are really nasty. Too fast and very powerfull in CC. Not to forget their lance-weapons that reduces AV14 to AV12.

Fellblades Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I have to second the DE part. They always seem to get in combat waaaay too fast and the lances make higher armor pointless Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1879042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scout Sniper Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 A friend of mine has Dark Angels with 3 land raiders (one Terminus, one Crusuader, one normal) in a 1500 point game it's just not fair on me, who is a painter/modeller rather than tournament gamer and can't afford to get every single piece of warhammer I want-or even enough to make 1500 points of a single army (I tend to get sidetracked after a squad or two of one army) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1879055 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAVAAR Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 So far I've only really been slowed by Nurgle Marines, that being said I was running almost all BC packs so their bonus 2 atks were nerfed. Switched my tactics and doing fine now (no BC's, and lots of Plasma). I haven't played against DE 1v1 yet and know their probably the best bet for the toughest for wolves. That being said I look forward to playing them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1879117 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I've always had a hard time with chaos, but I have not played them since they've been revised.

Wolf Lord Jukes Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 It used to be Chaos with their last codex (grrrrr) but now that they've been given a more easily dealt with codex, I'm actually going to say Sisters of Battle... too many games where it looks like I'll win only to be Faith Point'd to death... noooooooo....

Durfast Spiritwolf Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Usually a close run thing for me too with Chaos. I had an especially touch time when my BCs were charged by a unit of 10 nurgle bikers but the pack held out long enough for the VD to get into combat.

MaveriK Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I've fought every race and almost every army out there in 40K universe, but my most hated enemy would have to be Chaos Daemons. The only army I've ever lost to against in 5th edition so far. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1879188 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vassakov Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 DE are grim. Really, really grim. Much like us, they really want a decent FAQ and a few new models, not a Jervis "Streamlining." On the other hand, Tau and DA are amongst my most common foe so I rarely lose to them. Except for one really good player, who so far has beaten me twice. New Chaos I can beat, haven't tried Daemons yet though I might be alright - as my second army, I know a lot of their tricks.

AnarchX Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Chaos Daemons are a real pain with all of their "Breath of Chaos" attacks. Add in something like Fateweaver or Epidemus and it just gets down right sick. Dark Eldar are also a pain. If youhappen to know youare playing DE, I have found that Drop Pods and transports really help. At least you can typically get one round of shooting in...

Ullr Direfang Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 hardest to play: chaos deamons, and really shooty guard, eldar, and 'nilla marines. most people i play with my wolves, know i want to get into CC, so they shooty me. lots of tanks,/heavy weapons, and plasma. though my most hated army, which is just GW fault, is orks. i hate them with 99% of my being. every time i play them, i do all that i can to ensure that i crush them into the table. it is just a personal thing. and i could go into a long drawn out explanation but wont. i felt bad for on of the newer players to orks around here, when he finally felt comfortable playing against newer players and wanted to try a more experienced player, he got wiped from the table in three turns. he still plays but wont play people who have been playing for years (at least when i see him playing).

WG Vrox Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 yep, those damnable Nurgle Marines take the honor of my few decisive losses. Between the feel no pain and high T, I just can't dump enough effective firepower into them to weaken them enough for my assult packs to turn the tide of the battle. Tau when it comes to pitch battle / annihilation, just can't corner them well enough to make them bleed in CC.

Grey Mage Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Mrrr... I dont have a problem with nugle so much as I do with Daemons. Every time I play daemons it ends up with them having a single squad on the board thats almost gone, and myself having a very small squad or a damaged vehicle. But then the local Daemon player is a damn fine general too.

spacewolflars Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 My most hated foes are the little grey plastic warriors with a few hunks of lead thrown in here and there. Honestly, even a rattle can would be something. Seriously though, Eldar. Lots of confusing rules, the general of the hippity hoppity army is usually hard pressed to get them right. That was one of the few codexes that I bought primarily with the intention of learning their rules and stop getting played by a gross misuse/misunderstanding of the rules.

Vash113 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Most hated lets see Thousand Sons and Dark Angels... oh wait you mean IRL well um... Nurgle armies and Dark Eldar when played well. Though I've never run into a good Dark Eldar player. Nob Bikers and Nidzilla lists can also be a real pain to face.

Leif Weregeld Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Dark Eldar by far, out my way the regular DE player playds the wych cult army and He stopped playing them because the First turn assault rush was getting old for everybody.

Wolf PupE Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yes DE is a really hard army to go up against, but all the DE players stopped playeing DE and moved to other armies. My nemisis army would have to be nids, I feel kinda bad about it since it looks like I'm the only one having problems with them <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160145-most-hated-enemy/#findComment-1879707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
