Thorgad Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Today is my mother's birthday. Today I'll be going back home to celebrate, and to have dinner with my family, and will not be back 'till late friday. Since I've still not begun painting the WGBL I vowed to paint, and I still have to paint and highlight backpacks for 32 bloodclaws, I have little chance of fulfilling my painting vow. Thus I speak now, and thus it will be, that I accept my failure to uphold my vow, and cast this penance upon myself: I will be getting the new codex on saturday, and will be fighting my first 1500-points battle with it the coming monday, against the imperial guardsmen of my friend. As penance for failing my vow, I will field the following list against him: HQ. "Thorgad Oathbreaker." Wolf lord. Saga of the Wolfkin, Two Fenrisian Wolves, TDA, 2x Wolf Claws, WTT, Belt of Russ, Meltabomb. Total cost, 230 points. Troops. Bloodclaws Alpha. In Rhino. 10 Bloodclaws. Powerfist. Total cost 210 points. Bloodclaws Beta. In Rhino. 10 Bloodclaws. Powerfist. Total cost 210 points. Bloodclaws Gamma. In Rhino. 10 Bloodclaws. Powerfist. Total cost 210 points. Elites. Lone Wolf Alpha. On foot. TDA, MOTW, Two Fenrisian Wolves, Meltabomb. Total cost 85 points. Lone Wolf Beta. On foot. TDA, MOTW, Two Fenrisian Wolves, Meltabomb. Total cost 85 points. Lone Wolf Gamma. On foot. TDA, MOTW, Two Fenrisian Wolves, Meltabomb. Total cost 85 points. Fast Attack Fenrisian Wolves Alpha 14 Wolves 1 Cyberwolf. Total cost 128 points. Fenrisian Wolves Beta 14 Wolves 1 Cyberwolf. Total cost 128 points. Fenrisian Wolves Gamma 14 Wolves 1 Cyberwolf. Total cost 128 points. Total list cost 1499 points. This list is not meant to be cost-efficient. This list is not meant to be powerful. This list is not meant to emerge victorious This list is meant to meet the enemy head-on, with tooth and claw, and expire, clawing at the throat of the enemy as it draws its last breath. This list is meant to be the last, crazed charge as the wolflord and his retinue attempt to redeem themselves and fight well enough that they may rejoin Russ at the Wolftime, even though they will perish. This list is meant to lose. All dramatics aside,I encourage anyone else who didn't, or will not, make their vows in time, to come up with similar ways to regain the honour lost in being oathbreakers <_< 'till the Wolftime!

Prophecy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I would actually be rather interested in reading this batrep. And if you do lose, it had better be bloody spectacular. Russ won't accept you any other way. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180140-failing-my-vow/#findComment-2132975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent fang Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 "the wolf that fails in his duties is shamed but not forgotten." don't let your sacrifice to the world wolf be in vain, fight valiantly, fiercely and without mercy. good luck.

Hfran Morkai Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Are you sure you are a true Wolf Lord little one? After all it is not right for a Wolf Lord to lead his company in battle determined to fall, you should face the enemy alone in your dishonour and see how many you can drag to hell with you! Now that's an idea! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180140-failing-my-vow/#findComment-2133140 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hfran Morkai Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I say one model versus a horde of say Guard/Orks and see how many you can kill. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180140-failing-my-vow/#findComment-2133197 Share on other sites More sharing options...
