Looted Monolith Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Ok so i placed second beat by 3 game points pts (gaurd i think?) but managed to rack up the hightest victory pts of 6600pts and only surrendered 3000pts, i TABLED the first two opponents salamanders and spacewolves and managed to nearly wipe out the guy in the last round. I ran: 2 librarians 2 stormravens 2 death company dreads 1 furioso 1 land raider (epic fail) 10 deathcompany 7 vangaurd w/out jump packs(epic win) devastator team 3 RL 1 LC 5 storm shield thunderhammer terminators 2 sanguinary priests a 10 man tactical squad (my only scoring) How did the rest of us do?

Jaarl Stormfang Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Very interesting list. Do you have any details of battles? What units worked for your and what didn't (I'm assuming land raider was awful, vanguard were great) How did you get on with only 1 scoring?

Sanguinarian Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I assume you loaded the LR(C or R, not basic I hope!) with the VVs and Deep Striked them in next to a Storm Raven with Locator Beacon and then you unleashed hell from within (HI) as soon as it landed, right? That is something I hadn't thought of! And then, DSd the Termies in behind the cover of the 2 SRs and LR(C or R, not basic!), right? Ooops, HI only if JPs. Oh well. That would be sweet. Anyway, CONGRATS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igotsmeakabob!! Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Tabling the Wolves when your HQ is two librarians? Looted, give us more details on your list. Seems interesting.. only ONE scoring unit in a 2500pt game.. you have a lot of chutzpah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looted Monolith Posted May 18, 2010 Author Share Posted May 18, 2010 A bit about my tactics the libarians i use as a boster for already bas ass units this list vv's and assalt terminators same goes for the Sanguinary priests, I usually drive the terminator toteing LR-Crusader up the middle flanked by Storm ravens one bearing the VV's and friends + a Furioso the other is death company storm raven Death company and Death company Dread w/blood claws(both the vv's DC have three power weapons a power fist feel no pain furious charge but the death company has ws5 and fleet, i love fleet while the other has perfered enemy via Librarian) my tactical squad has a plasma gun and cannon they usually stick around were ever they are deployed on top of a objective or out of harms way the devastator team i use to pop transports so the death company can have thier way with the contentents my major anti-tank are the storm ravens i constantly turbo boost to claim the cover save and multi melta the nearest high point vehicle, they were responsible for 5 of the 6 land raiders i cunsumed through out the day, not to tactical, i try to be fastest the toughest and hit harder than anyone else such as only a blood angel can be. this land is our land ladz First I fought the objective based round against a salamanders player, i totaled the kill points post game and while he seriously immobilized nearly my whole army a furioso dread a storm raven and land raider he only got 1 kill point to 17, the dice were aginst him. the first mission had a all new deployment (maybe out of Battle missions not 2 familiar with that book) but the table was severed diagonally and either side deployed 12inches off the center line towards opposite corners, winning first turn i set my army as close as possible, would have worked out better if the only six he rolled all game wouldn't have been to steal initiative. fiercly out numbered i moved my Land raider Crusader Dedicated to carrying assault terminators a terminator librarian w/storm shield(sanguine sword&unleash fury) and Sanguinary priest towards his landraider who carried identical terminators + vulkun. I moved my un immobilized storm raven w/extra armor twin linked lascannon and multimelta 12inches towards his own ambitious infantry, disembarked VV's joined by Librarian (same powers, original i know) + another priest. And the furioso w/fists magna grapple, extra armor. dreadnought pops another land raider this one only hiding tactical marines. Fast foward end of turn 5 the poor guy only has like 6 men still standing and after he failed to point plank a unscathed death company dread w/bloodclaws the same who already syched his way trough at least 2 dozen other poor salamanders, the posabilaty that i could table him sets in 4 both of us i hadnt realized until this point how effective i had been, he had so many troops I was just head hunting, iam not ussaly a very objective based player i still managed to combat squad my one scoring troop to hold 2 objectives to none (would have only got me a Major victory) to score a regular massacare i needed to hold 4-5 more objectives than my opponet so i tabled him Massacare!! Vicrory 450pts to 2500pts 3 bonus points :killed more hqs than him, killed more scoreing units than him, and i killed his highest cost unit+23 tourneypts Grindin Meat The wolves had a glass jaw, I didnt want to be caught on the defensive against them so 80%of his army died in his deployment zone. And about 50% of them died before they new they were in a fight. The deployment was table corners and the bonus points were awarded 4 holding table qwarters.4 land speaders all with multimeltas deepstriked and two squads of scouts were his rienforcments, i want to mention now that i faced alot of melta guns + variants and if a melta gun cant roll 2 dice it is largley ussless so for what ever the reason, i mean the emperor decided storm ravens are almost immune to melta gun fire it was great. This mission used old victory point to decide the winner final was 800pts to 2500pts massacare no bonuses :) kill the fast ones I faced another salamander player quite a bit more experienced. I ll explain the mission first, Kill points based 3 kill points were awarded 4 killing jump infantry bikers jet bikers non-walker vehicle hq's were worth 2 everything else worth 1. to achive the massacare i had to get 7 more than enemy, i did. I lost 1 stormraven both libarians landraider VV's 2 dreads (one furioso 1 DC) 2 sanguinary priest=14 he lost 2 drop pods 2 landraiders 2 tactical squads 10 strong one 5 man team w/lascannon one five man team w/combi melta and melta gun 2 vindicators 2 razorbacks 8 assalt terminators and one master of the forge w/beamer gun.=30 he new he was at the disadvantage so he put vary little on the board during deployment and so as he trickled onto the board i slaughtered him. I know its not a full battle report but the tournment was really long ours diddnt start till 11:00am and ended at 8:30pm Still intrested in how everyone else did, the same im sure we are the best and ill Massacre anyone saying other wise. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
