Decoy Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I don't know why this popped into my head, and I'm incredibly unlikely to try it, but... 6 Wolf Guard w/6 Combi-Flamer, Razorback 6 Wolf Guard w/6 Combi-Flamer, Razorback 6 Wolf Guard w/6 Combi-Flamer, Razorback 6 Wolf Guard w/6 Combi-Flamer, Razorback Logan Grimnar with 14 Wolf Guard, assorted Weapons/Fists/Hammers, Land Raider 15 Wolf Guard, assorted weapons/Fists/Hammers, Land Raider Heavy Weapon slot of your choice, maybe 2. ... Twenty four Wolf Guard, ready to fanatically die, driving headlong (tank shock) into the enemy, hoping to be destroyed and take some enemy with them in the explosion, waiting to pop out with their Assault-weapon Flamery Goodness, following up with a 24-attack charge per squad into whatever may be left. Idea is to ram the transports into the enemy via Tank Shock, shoot the HBs when they can. If Guard get the opportunity, disembark before a full-strength Ram into enemy tank units by the Razors, hopefully taking more enemy guys with 'em, and if not, making a spectacular mess. Logan and Guard move up afterwards, disembarking into CC to take care of the rest. Surviving Razors block fire to the Land Raiders by parking in front of heavy weapons squads, unloading ammo if they can and dying heroically. Allows for 29 models to close and engage in close combat, while rogue elements (the suicide squads) continue to cause havoc. Failing all else, it'd be a hell of a fun thing to try, and imagine the look on the other guy's face! EDIT: I remember why I thought of this. Was reading the 5th Ed codex, the part about lightning-swift decisive strikes. Heh.

Brother Grius Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I don't foresee it being very points effective. You'd be better off using some Grey Hunters with Plasmagun and Plasma Pistol with one Wolf Guard each.

Decoy Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 Oh, I agree, BG. It's HORRIDLY points-ineffectual. For some reason, though... I just can't stop laughing about it. Four Razorbacks, just running amok and through whatever units may be on the ground, and should their payloads be discharged, 24 flamer templates going all willy nilly. If that isn't a distraction, I don't know what would be.

Brother Grius Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Nevermind... at the points per model of WG w/ Combi-Flamers, an army of nothing but flamers scares the :evil:: outta me.

Hrathnar Flintfang Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 You know you could always go even MORE points ineffective with Termie armor and heavy flamers trading out some of those Rhinos for Land raiders. But then at that point I think you have a whole other set of issues to consider.

Coverfire Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Shame we don't get any open-topped vehicles of our own... I would like to repay the Orks for their 12 Flamers in an Ork Truck Tactic which I have been on the receiving end of a couple of times.
