boreas Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 So, I have this tourney coming up. Its got a devastation special rule. Basically, you come in with a 1750pts list for the first game. You roll for deployment type, but the mission is always annihilation using 4th ed. victory points. After the first game, the winner must choose to either go to devastation or consolation. In devastation rounds, players that chose this route will play the second round using the remnants of their first round army (with immobilized vehicles being destroyed as they are "left behind", but one-shot weapons like seeker missiles get reloaded). In consolation rounds, you get a 1250 pts list for round 2 and 750pts for round 3. If a devastation player has no match-up (because an odd number of player chose that route) he can thus be matched with a consolation player. So I decided to try my hand with a Water Warrior type of army. Some of you might be surprised, because I've stated before that I find this list unsportsmanlike. But, hey, that tourney is our local equivalent to 'Ard Boyz, so thats a good occasion to take it! So here are my boys! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KYc5-ZYzLRk/Sg2lrdY-hHI/AAAAAAAAAXI/wCjWnn73mBE/s400/IMG_1588.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KYc5-ZYzLRk/Sg2mYe01lcI/AAAAAAAAAXo/RrB5EZIPyyw/s400/IMG_1590.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KYc5-ZYzLRk/Sg2mYQP7gCI/AAAAAAAAAXg/Nt_jBRcBLII/s400/IMG_1587.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KYc5-ZYzLRk/Sg2lr77ZfDI/AAAAAAAAAXQ/M4KxD0lrgiU/s400/IMG_1591.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KYc5-ZYzLRk/Sg2lsPcTt2I/AAAAAAAAAXY/-_rdOmXjdIs/s400/IMG_1594.jpg As always, for better pics: http://leblogboreas.blogspot.com/ Phil Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168600-daemonhunters-on-the-warpath/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gil galed Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I might be being extremely dim but how are you running 3 LR's and a dread? From the looks of it you have 1 GKT squad 2 PAGK Squads 1 IST squad 3 LR 1 Dread I was under the impression that none of the GK squads have transport options, and with only 3 Heavy Support slots you're coming in at 4? or am i being stupid Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168600-daemonhunters-on-the-warpath/#findComment-1989366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Apropos Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I was scratching my head too. Can a GK Hero take a dedicated transport, or is that an Inquisitor only thing? I really need to just bring my Codex in to work with me.

boreas Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 Haha, no! The dread is in case I get to go into "consolidation" rounds (ie if I get beaten bad in the first round and thus cannot go on with my original list). My 1250 pt list loses a LR, some termies but gets a dread. My 750 pts list loses a second LR and a squad of PAGK but get a IST squad and a chimera (not pictured here)... I just wish LRs where dedicated transports! A 2 LR+2 Dreads lists would be so good!. Better even, allying some GKs AND their LR into an WH army!

Red Lost Soldier Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Very nice looking army, good luck for the tournament! Sounds like a fun twist, actually having to plan ahead of the actual battle, conserving forces for the next etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168600-daemonhunters-on-the-warpath/#findComment-1989759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
