El Scotcho Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 So I got a good long look at the new 'dex, I think I might have come up with a halfway decent list. Wolf Lord riding a storm wolf armed with a frost blade and a storm shield with the saga of the warrior born, leading a unit or storm wolf cavalry all with bolt pistols and storm shields. A wolf guard battle leader with the saga of the warrior born, with a frost blade and bolt pistol leading a pack of 15 blood claws with a melta gun and a power fist. Another wolf guard battle leader with a power fist and bolt pistol and the saga of the warrior born, leading a 15 strong pack of blood claws with a melta gun and a powerfist. 10 wolf guard with tactical dreadnought armor, with 2 cyclone missile launchers and 2 chain fists. 2 10 strong grey hunter packs with 2 melta guns each and a power fist apiece riding drop pods in. Next up 2 units of 3 Land speeders with 2 multi meltas each (which is possible unless it ends up typoed out in the final release version). And finally 2 squads of 5 long fangs with 2 lascannons and 3 plasma cannons each, mounted in twin llinked lascannon Razorbacks. I've tried to make my army somewhat fluffy, but still interesting enough for tournament play. Feel free to poke whatever holes in it you see fit,as that is the reason why i posted it And cheers all!!

How many points is this army list? I'm counting over 75 Marines, with no shortage of vehicles and equipment.

Forseti Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I count 2885 Without the Thunderwolf Cavalry (Don't have point/upgrades for those ;_:teehee: that I hear are 50pts each, min of 3, so looking at over 3000pts. That lord is very nasty though, tempted to take one myself, but you pay quite heavily for him, 235pts. Seems Saga of the Bear will be #1 for foot/bike lords, while Warrior-born will be #1 on rider lords.

slmellon Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I fielded 73 marines at the Ard Boyz Tourney, but that was 2500 pts, using the almost out of date codex. and i had a pred, ven dred, and two rhinos too. Orks got nothing on my horde Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178585-an-attempt-at-an-army-list-from-the-new-codex/#findComment-2112071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forseti Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Pfft go for a true horde SW list Canis 135 Fenrisian Wolves (Initiative 5 cuz of Canis) 3x 6 Long Fangs w/5 Lascannons 2x 10 Wolf guard in Drop Pod/Rhino w/ 10 combi weapons, Power Fist, Power Weapon (for safety don't give plasma to the PF/PW ones XD) 176 models Oops didn't mean to hijack. IMO those speeders eat up a lot of points, being 80each and I don't like Plasma cannons on long fangs, other than that it's potentially very nasty. Oh yeah, you have 3 HQs with Saga of the Warrior Born, If I heard right, other than SCs, you can't take same saga more than once.
