Jonny Wolf Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 So, came in second place with 64 points (the winner had 65). Here's the list (which I took as a kind of goof and just wanted to have fun): Logan Ragnar Arjac Termie - Heavy Flamer, Chainfist Termie - TLWC Termie - Frost Blade and Storm Shield Termie - Frost Blade and Storm Shield WG - TLWC WG - TLWC Land Raider Crusader extra Armor This gives me 1+D3 attacks on a Furious Charge with Preferred Enemy. Yeah, it's nuts, but it'll be fun to play. Njal in PA 9 GH - Wulfen, Power Weapon, Melta 5 GH - Wulfen, Power Weapon, Melta Razorback - TLLC 5 GH - Wulfen, Power Weapon, Melta Razorback - TLLC 5 GH - Wulfen, Power Weapon, Melta Razorback - TLLC 5 GH - Wulfen, Power Weapon, Melta Razorback - TLLC Round One: Versus Drop Pod & Mech Space Wolves. Fairly new player, so I went easy on him and helped him out (him being a fellow Son of Russ), but this, I believe, is why I didn't win the tourny - I should've utterly crushed him so I would have had more points at the end of the tourny. Round Two: Orks. Against two battle wagon's of Nobz with Ghazkull and a big mech. He came in with the helicopter things and killer cans wich I popped quite easily. His two battle wagons were harder to pop (big mech!), but eventually got all the orcs foot slogging. Then I unloaded with Ragnar and a Pack of GH wiping out his boyz, while Logan, Arjac and the WG cleaned up the a pack of Nobz and Big Mech. He didn't have a great poker face and I made him blink. He hadn't scored a hit on anything on me and was worried about losing even more of his force and elected to pull Ghazkull and his nobz back in order to save them. This of course was his undoing and a bit of luck for me. At the end of the game he killed a Razorback and half a squad of Grey Hunters. He had Ghazkull, Nobz and a Def Dread left. Round Three: Demons. This guy had been mopping up in the first two rounds and was doing decidedly well. I cut my teeth in the hobby against an awesome demon player back in the day so I was pretty confident that I could do well. He came in with Fate Weaver, Blood Crusher with Skull Taker, Sould Grinder, two pink horrors and those flame things. I threw caution to the wind and knew that Fate Weaver (after some advice from friends) needed to go. So, Logan, Ragnar, Arjac and the rest of the boys were able to get into assault with Fate, Soul Grinder and Blood Crushers at the beginning of turn two. It cost me Arjac, Logan and over half the WG squad, but they took out the above and a Demon Prince of Nurgle. Poor reserve rolls on his part was helpful, but after I shot his DP of Khorne and his Deamonettes all to hell, I just sat back and shot his remaining force. He destroyed one HQ (Logan) and a Razor back. I killed everythign of his except on squad of Pink Horrors. My list is a fairly decent all comers list, but it must be played conservatively at first using your Lazer Cannons and Living Lightning as stand off. Position yourself to you have maximum distance to engange targets, but also leave yourself room in the event you get popped and get out. The key portion of this list is knowing the critical moment to deploy and assault with the Hero Hammer of Doom in order to gain the Furious and Insane Bravado Effects. Right thats it.

Requiem of the Wolf Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Well done on your victory,and even better in my opinion in the manner in which you did it. It is all too often easy to forget that we play this for enjoyment when caught up in the spirit of the tournament. That you showed a fellow Son of Russ respect and help in guiding him in his early times shows that you can win with honor. That being said,I agree with Khan...in the Semi-Finals and beyond,there will be no real new players more then likely,so go balls to the wall on every opponent you meet and good luck in the semi finals brother.
