BA vs SW


Recommended Posts

Brother Stormbrow you must have left quite the impression among your peers. So many would offer up advice to contribute to your opponent!

LOL. That's getting sigged.

 

He'll need all the help he can get so I don't mind. I'm not too pushed about winning any popularity contests either so I'll say what I have to say and get up people's noses if need be. As long as I'm right/proven right I'm happy.

 

@MattD: Glad I caught someone out so easily. :lol:

Well it looks like your in luck Lucius...He isn't going for the easiest way to beat down a Blood Angel so your chances got better *grins*

You... you came to the Fang for advice... on how to beat the Wolves? *shakes head* You sir, have stones :)

 

:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Completely agreed.

 

You'll not find a lot of sympathy here, but I'll tell you to be ready for anything. If no one else has said it, I'll tell you to watch out for the Bloodclaw battering ram. A little searching the forum will tell you what that is.

Glad I made someone laugh :D

 

Is that Land raider, Blood claws, your chappy fello and some special char?

 

Mind you we can do a better battering ram, 15 DCw/Hammer and PW in Crusader with Reclusiarch, thats 52 standard attacks that woind MEQ's on 3 , 4 PW attacks, 3 TH attacks and 5PW attacks from reclusiarch (non-rerolling to wound) all rerolled to hit and wound on the charge! :)

Space Wolves Battering Ram:

14 Blood Claws

Wolf Priest

Ragnar

Land Raider Crusader

 

Maximum of 83 attack in total, 13 of which are power Weapons. All at I 5 or more, and with S 5 or more.

@BCLucius: Yes, its a tourney practice list for the next 2 weeks that I'm in the process of painting. Still a fair bit to go but at least I get to say Thunderwolves, HO!

 

Hoping to make that sig of yours 15/7/11. If I can remember the camera I'll make a batrep.

For dealing with Thunderwolves...you need to throw enough wounds at them that the wound allocation won't save them. Use missiles,lascannons and plasma guns. That or just throw 50+ bolter shots at a time.

 

Though the more AP 3 shots you can do the better.

With all this build up you know we're all expecting a battle report!

I can put one up with pics if you really want but it will be short: TWC Lords > BA army.

 

They accounted for a Vindi, Libby, 2 Sang Priests and 2 10 man Assault Squads. They had help cleaning up from Grey Hunters and Long Fangs bagging a Furioso but the Lords were tarpitting stuff or just destroying it outright and did much of the damage. Nom Nom Nom.

That game today was definately the worst that I have played with my BA vindicators are going out of all my lists and probably never to reappear. I look forward to a rematch if your up to it in a few weeks. Stormbrow will agree with me on this is that I had terrible dice rolls. Nothing hit or did anything on the first turn or there after really.

Did those Vindies also kiled some of Your own troops?

nope just in 2 games i played today they killed 18 pts of fenrisian wolves and stunned a rhino.

 

I see. I was asking just because one of our local players recently told that he will remove both "stupid thing" from his lists for constant friendly-fire reasons.

The Dread podding and doing nothing with his Meltagun on Turn 1 was surely a sign of things to come.

 

In fairness, Deep Striking 2 big squads of Marines and leaving the Land Raider behind was just making them TWC bait. I'm up for a rematch at some stage - probably next Sunday or the week after Conclave as I'll need the practice for Brocon again.

Ah Balls! seems like my Assault marines will have a tough time landing.......

 

Also does this include pods and Deepstriking Landraiders?

Actually depends on your interpretation. Clear it with him before the game, and if you can't decide, roll a dice: 1-3, he's right, 4-6, you're right.

 

Actually, I think tempest wrath only includes jump infantry, jet bikes and skimmers. So your drop pods and landraiders should be fine

The rule specifically includes units deploying by deep-strike that finish their move within 24" of the Rune Priest. So drop pods and Land Raiders (that DS would be affected).
