LoneSniperSG Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Today I've started doing what I should have done three months ago. Probably due to listening to copious amounts of Amon Amarth this morning. Most of my army still belongs under the old codex. Stuff is now where it shouldn't be and all that. I also decided to go with an infantry change. I'm gearing my troops more toward Grey Hunters (They've been Blood Claws long enough anyway) Here's what I am doing. I was split 3 and 3 before. 3 squads of Greys, 3 squads of Bloods. Now, my plan is to have four squads of Grey Hunters, one maxed-out (15-man) squad of Claws, and the remaining five BC's will become Skyclaws, bringing that squad up to 10. Two Greys Squads will have a Meltagun, Plasma pistol and a Fist in each, one will have a Plasma Gun, plasma pistol and a fist, and the last will have a plasma gun, plasma pistol and power weapon. The Blood Claws will have a flamer, plasma pistol and fist. Like before, I'll run my Wolf Priest with the Claws (after throwing one out for a game so the pack will get in a Raider) and Rune Priests and WG with the Grey Hunters. Skyclaws also have a fist, plasma pistol and a flamer. They'll be my tangle squad Dunno why, I'm just suddenly turned off on Blood Claws. Probably my friend and his ungodly Death Company.. With how many wolf Guard models I have, there will likely be a whole pack of them kicking about somewhere. Probably a five-man squad of Terms with a Pod, five other terms with the Wolf Lord, and the PA ones scattered among the squads.

Grey Mage Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Good to hear other people have been doing this lol. I still have one new guy who tells me one of my GH packs are actually BCs, because theres not a single bolter in the squad. So... why a meltagun and aplasma rifle? Thats a very... odd.... combination. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194385-ironfang-overhaul/#findComment-2311613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneSniperSG Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 Because there isn't a "melta pistol"? I'm actually not perturbed by the combination. It worked well before when my squads were looking at Eldar War Walkers, Dreadnoughts and Daemonprinces.

Grey Mage Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Fair enough, just curious. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194385-ironfang-overhaul/#findComment-2311621 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneSniperSG Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 Also, part of my lack of motivation for fixing everything to match the new codex was that there was no one for me to fight! My LGS cancelled its 40k games nights (because the managers are +[censored]+ retards), and my friends were all busy with life stuff. <_< But the fact that I was dragging my codices around with me meant that one of my friends got the bug to rebuild his Eldar, and he showed me to a new gaming store that's ten minutes away from the one I go to.

Probably due to listening to copious amounts of Amon Amarth this morning. Amon Amarth will do that to you. As will Ensiferum. Looking forward to seeing your work. <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194385-ironfang-overhaul/#findComment-2311719 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well.. my signature star Exterminator is soon going to be repainted to match my IG. I think. Been meaning to do that for a while too, but it just looks so good in SW colors. As far as weaponry changes, no. There's not much that needs to be changed in the Armor department. Bikes and Speeders are also set... I think.
