My loganwing

[Ladislao]

Hello fellow brothers!

A little introduction, i m a old, very old space wolf player... but i stopped playng it something like 3 years ago, due to problem with old rules and so on, i start playng orks..

 

These past 2 years i had a LOT of tournament with them, and i become quite a competent player ( maybe also a bit more). But now i m a bit fed up with them, and also with my new work i ve no time for tournaments.

 

So i returned to my first love, the wolves... but my old models are very very very bad painted, and also i was not able to do a funny list with them, so i decided to do a completerly new list, with completely new models, the ones i always loved, the terminator!

 

So here i m, busy in tryng to figure out and learn to pklay a somwhat competitive logan wing list, and i want to share these experience with you, so maybe someone could learn from the error i will do and from the victory i will have.

 

The list

I had seen some logawing list around, at 1500 point, but they have all a very bad way of playng.

They drop, they kill wathever they find near.. and then they are like sitting duck

 

 

So i will try to do a list wich is fist of all flexible, with both long and short range fire, some cc and a bit of mobility

 

The long rage fire will be granted by the cyclone missile launcher.. i m gonna use 4 of them, and 2 of them will have logan to give tank hunter.

Also, i m gonna add a basic rune priest, and living cyclone will help to deal with distant threats.

 

Short range will come, as usual, from combi weapon... combi melta for the little squads, combi plasma from the bigger one

 

a little mobility will came from the drop pod...

 

So this is the list

 

qg

 

Logan, and a wolf priest

 

Troops

 

Squad Mijollnir

as above

 

 

Squad Einherjar

 

4 pa wolf guard squad with 4 combi plasmas and a drop pod, to be used as kamikaze unit... no pic, because i got no inspiration about how to do this squad, i will use random models

[CainTheHunter]

Cool! I am tinkering with my Loganwing list as well right now. Except that I find Njal particularly attractive in such build.

[Ladislao]

And so, yesterday i had mu first match.

 

( now i will have some problem, because the unit's name in the italian codex a different from the english one, so rhere will be some problem)

 

My opponent war a g i player, he fielded a horde of models, something like 130, in a lot of squad.. notabily, e had 6 laser in 2 squad, 3 rocket launcher, 1 valkyria and 1 squad of stoorm troops with melta guns

 

The missions was 3 objectives.

 

I felt i had to deploy near him, drop in front of him,, and charge as soon as possible... but this sounded a bit too orkish, so i decided to stay back from his lasguns, fire at the las cannons, wait for the stoorm troops and valkyria to show up, blow them and then take the objectives.

 

this was my opponent deployment

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMGFsB6qg2I/AAAAAAAAAwc/Vxmb8UW-nFo/s800/PA210476.JPG

 

And this mine

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMGFqlH4GLI/AAAAAAAAAwY/DXzFltWPi8U/s800/PA210475.JPG

 

 

To make a long story short... this was a disaster! He simply shot too much, did not miss a single cover save ( he kept sending the laz cannon to the ground, only to recover them after with the order) while i missed everything... still, at turn 4 i was winning, turn 5 was a draw, at turn 6 i lost.

 

Some important moment of the match

The Einhejar squad dropped in the middle of his army, shoot with theyrs 4 combi melta ad the laz gun.. killing one only :P

only to meet the rage of the lord wolf!!!

 

 

Cool! I am tinkering with my Loganwing list as well right now. Except that I find Njal particularly attractive in such build.

 

Yes, the problem is... it is expensive, and this kind of list is, pointwise, expensive

[Prot]

This is a great idea and I hope you can pull it off.

 

Personally I am running Logan/Arjac combo and am really enjoying it. I don't know if what you're planning can be competitive or not... but it does look fun. :(

 

P.S.

 

Did you have any trouble with the doors on your drop pod? I've been stalling putting mine together and I tried putting one of my three together last night, and had to rip it apart because of the doors popping open. How did yours go?

What do You mean? They are supposed to pop open unless they are magnetised or glued together.

[Prot]

No... I mean mine won't even stay closed temporarily . I had to pull the whole model apart last night (except the doors and interior.)

 

Basically mine won't stay shut unless I hold them shut. The doors have too much friction somewhere... and they won't close unless constant pressure is applied.

 

I think I did something wrong.... I read somewhere else that the part of the door that contacts the base when the door is closed is uneven, and won't close unless you smooth it down with a knife.

[CainTheHunter]

I just checked mine. There are three doors which stay closed and two doors which won't close under any circumstances and will drop open as soon as I release them. So I guess that's a common issue, which is related to the sprue.

Got the same, if u really bother you could glue/magnet that one door. The other 3 can still open close.

The first one i did has the same problem, the second and the third no... and the only difference is i guled the 2 halves pf the base very very very very well

[Ranwulf]

Through pratice, you can achieve glory.

 

Seriously, I think your idea is AWESOME! Nothing like having Logan Grimnar going straight to battle with Terminators!

 

Now, it will be tough trough sometime, since you don't know exactly how the army works. But keep practising, and here a good tip, keep writing Battle Reports and store somewhere what works and what doens't so you can improve each time you play!

 

Loved the idea man!

[Ladislao]

And here i m, with the secondo fantastic battle report!

 

This time i met a daemon army, and because my opponent said '' I m and old player, and when i was young one gos was enought!'' I uses only tzench daemons

 

He used 3 big units of pink horrors, 2 units of pyrodemons, 2 units of flamers, 2 daemon princes, 2 herald and fate weaver and a squad of screemers

 

this was the army

 

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMLKP2mg1VI/AAAAAAAAAzU/DKZ6Up77BQI/s800/PA220501.JPG

 

and this was the field

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMLKOggXr4I/AAAAAAAAAzQ/5848-a64doQ/s800/PA220500.JPG

 

( ps, i took little pics, and also they are not too good, because i was low on battery charge)

 

The game was another time with 3 objectives, deployment ad quarter

 

I was forced to begin fist...i deployed squad mijolnir on a big ruin, fo fear opf the flamers, and huginn and muninn on the objectives.. and here i did an error, being squad munnin too far from the others

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMLKReHA1QI/AAAAAAAAAzc/TKHI7yLRqiM/s800/PA220503.JPG

 

He went down with a demon prince with blow, a squad of flamers, one of pink horrors and the screemers.... the flamers scattered near squad huginn, killing 2 termy, the deamon prince scattered too far away to di anithing. In my turn i charged the flamers, killing 2 of them, and with the massed fire of squad mijolnir and muninn the daemon prince was killed.

 

In his turn the other demon prince and the feared fateweaver arrived from reserve... but did little.

 

In my turn i shot with everithing at fate weaver

 

2 rokets form munnin: 2-1 to hit ( fateweaver knew about it)

4 rocket from squan mijolnir, 2 hits, triple one to wound ( fateweaver knew about it)

the priest failed his psionic test ( fateweaver knew about it)

but kairos forget about the bolters... 15 bolter's shot, 4 wound, and.. e saved nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bye bye fateweaver

Squad Einherjar arrived and with 4 combi meltas took away 3 wound from the daemon prince.

 

And the match more or less endend here... the pink horror and the herald have not enought fire to kill my termy, and also not enought range to avoid the returning fire... and with r3 and ts 4 also the bolter were effective, very very very effective

 

At the end of turn 3 he has only this little squad left as troop

 

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMLKW9rVf0I/AAAAAAAAAz4/iXEdPzcMfdI/s800/PA220510.JPG

 

wich was killed on toyurn 4. on tourn five i risked a drow, because i was a bit slow and he contested both my objectives, but after a fast charge on turn five...

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMLKbCMpdoI/AAAAAAAAA0M/fCbbvrFvGUA/s800/PA230515.JPG

 

This was the result, no demon left on the table!

[Prot]

I just checked mine. There are three doors which stay closed and two doors which won't close under any circumstances and will drop open as soon as I release them. So I guess that's a common issue, which is related to the sprue.

 

The first one i did has the same problem, the second and the third no... and the only difference is i guled the 2 halves pf the base very very very very well

 

Sorry but I don't understand....You say the only difference is you glued the 2 halves "pf" the base very very very very well... what is PF?

 

I'm enjoying your batreps. You have me tempted to try this. I do have one daemon army playing friend and he always uses this character that basically gives his army re-rolls of their invulnerables.... nasty. Good job on the win. The army is looking good!

[Ladislao]

oh sorry, i ve no idea why i wrote pf, i mean base

[Brother Nathan]

for a simple solution to the pod problem, try an elastic band!careful though with painted models incase the paint comes off... just means you dont have to do so much work to get it right and its a simple matter to open the doors... Anyway well done with the deamons!

[Rune_Priest_Rhapsody]

As a player who has been slowly and steadily collecting TDA bits for such an army, I am curious as to how you kit out each five man squad?? Do you give each squad a job, or is it more of a "ready for anything" type of build??

 

Also, do you run a ten man squad with no transport?? I was thinking about doing this, then using Drop pods for the other three or four units.

 

Great job on the battle reports, and I am excited to see some paint applied to those Termis!!

 

Oh, and can anybody direct me towards a Combi tutorial for storm bolters?? I cannot find one through the search engine. Thanks!!

1) No, the termy quad have a realy '' universal'' build, they are too few to specialize.. Actualy the 2 five men squad are armend with a cyclone, 3 combi melta and a storm shield... this build lack of anti horde ability, but the problem is solved via cac.

 

2) yes, no transport for them, there is nothing big enough 8P

[CainTheHunter]

I was thinking about something in terms of one 10 man pack and 3 x 5 packs. The biggest difference is that I was aiming for bigger points and thus the 10 man squad was joined by Njal. The fact is, that pack keeps Njal alive till the last turns of the game, when his abilities become devastating. This big pack is intended to footslog, while the other three, which also contain Logan, will drop pod.

[Mr. Danvers]

Sorry, I'm gonna temporarily hijack back to a previous topic in the thread.

 

Several guys mentioned about the pod doors not closing properly when it was put together. I had this issue myself when I built my three. I solved it by shaving down the bottom of the hatch doors. It seems that when you glue the top and bottom halves of the base together, there isn't enough clearance for the doors to move. Well that's the issue I had. Now my doors will stay up when the pods closed and will just drop open with a little flick.

 

It's perhaps too late, but if someone's still building some pods, this might help.

[Ladislao]

Some news, first of all, i finished to paint the first terminator

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TMhs2mozgJI/AAAAAAAAA0w/TMEHzxdZXBA/s800/PA270519.JPG

 

Then a battle report... i had a rematch with the guard player, but i ve no pics, couse i forgot the charget battery at home :)

 

The battle was the one with 2 bases, he won and let me start...

 

the objectives were at the 2 oposite edge of the table, i deployed the 10 man squad far from him, enought to be able to hit him but not to be hit by his laser, also deployed the priest and logan in the drop pod with the kamikaze squad.

 

To make a long story shord, i dropped in fron of him with the 2 termy squad, but did veeeeery little with fire ( he deploy always like a onion, with little and unusefull squad screening the important ones), but was able to send to the ground the 2 laz squad

 

in his turn, well, as always when i play with him, the improbable happenede: 6 laz shots, 5 hits, 5 wounds... but i had cover, and 2 storm shields... after the dices stoped rolling, i had 5 termy less.. and the remaing 2 of one squad were simply blown away by light fire

 

turn 2, the other squad arrived, with the fire i was not able to take away the screen, then i charged this now 6 man screen unit, i charged with 3 of my 2 termy, and killed 5 of them! good!

 

His turn... due to the CC and the drop pod he was not able to aim his heavy weapon to the henejar, but with light fire he killed 3 power armored guyz.

He also destroyed one of my pods, and the esplosion... killed one more of my terminator... But i was alrady smiling, the 2 left would surely kill this last guy, then the next turn i would charge with them and loga.... roll roll rolll 2 pow weapon and 2 fist's attack after, the heroic imperial guard was still alive!!!

at this poit I had 2 from squad Huginn alive locked in CC, 1 power armorded man from squad Einherjar with logan and the priest, and squad Mijolnir firmily on my objective

 

Turn 3

 

From this turn on, the match took a steady way, logan and his buddies ( all of wich would die before the end) grinded theyr's way to the enemy objective ( i was able to jump from CC to CC without taking fire) the to man squad managed to kill the heroic gi, only to be vaporized by the guard fire, my opponend used all his reserves to bring down logan, failing, and threatened my objective only with a valkyria full of veterans... realy too little to worry 10 terminatos.

 

The match endend in this way, with logan fighting over the enemy objective ( he killed over 30 guard's models!!!)( my opponent did not have a single power weapon) and mine in my hands, so VICTORY

 

Thougts: i was thinking about replacing 3 combi melta from a squad, with 3 combi flamer, to add some anti horde ability... what to you think?

[WeeDawgNYC]

Sorry but I don't understand....You say the only difference is you glued the 2 halves "pf" the base very very very very well... what is PF?

 

 

It was a typo, 2 halves "of" the base. Being the the p is adjacent its a commmon error.

 

Im not really a fan of combi weapons becaus there all or nothing. but I wouldnt replace all 3 meltas with flamers just 1 is good enough plus it allows for better allication of wounds taken on the squad. Logan wing to too pricey for me in less than 2,000pts. you should think of taking away 1 unit & adding in some Long Fangs.

[krewl]

Loganwing al termie armies are cool, but you have to build every unit to do everything.

Njall I found to be not worth the points as he is wrth a normal runepriest in TDA AND another 6 man 5 missile launcher long fang squad.

 

This is what I play now, at 1700 but with long fangs.:

 

Logan

RP in TDA, Chooser, talisman.

10 men TDA, 2 x cyclone, 3 combiplasma, 3 Wolf claws, 2 fists.

5 men TDA, 2 combimelta, 1 combiplasma, combiflamer, 2 x fists, 1 cyclone, drop pod.

5 men TDA, 3 combimelta, 1 combiplasma, 2 x fists, 1 cyclone, drop pod.

6 long fansg, 5 ML, drop pod

6 long fansg, 5 ML

 

Lots of firepower down range, hard CC units, especially the 10 men squad, prefered enemy, counter charge on a 10- with logan and even once a game the bonus attack.

 

Or I drop logan with a CML termie and a nuit fangs in the pods for side armour shouts. With relentless they can shoot on the drop, and I support them with a 2nd pod so logan can jump ship if needed. (Should not get him out in the open, even with a 3 wound eternal warrior.)

 

3rd pod squad helps me with far away objectives.

 

As you can see I build the squads to be as self sufficient as possible. And always go for the CML over other heavy weapons unless you plan to run out of a landraider.

 

I like to play my list as always outnumbered, never outgunned. :whistling:

[Ladislao]

Hello fellow brothers! I have another battle report to share with you!

Some day ago a met a blood angel player with a list who gave me a lot of problem... not due to sheer force, but to hi9s far superior mobility

 

He had quite a ''codex list'', a tactical squad ( split in 2 ) on a laser razzorback, ad assault squad with corbulo on a land raider and a librarian, 2 land speeder with rocked launcher and heavy bolter, 5 shooty terminator, a double auto cannon dreddy and 3 attack bike

 

the mission had 5 objectives, with me as beginner ( he won the throw and let me begin)

 

This was the table and my deployment

 

http://lh5.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGMvDT3yI/AAAAAAAAA30/mR0LMHaiURQ/s800/PB050520.JPG

 

I placed 3 objective nearby, one below the big ruin i delployed in, one in the wood in front of the ruin, the third in another ruin nearby.

 

He deployed NOTHING

 

turn 1... I made the 2 drop pod with the termy arrive near the objectives, and having nothing to shot at, made the termy run up on the ruins, to have btetter line fo sight

 

 

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGOp7ETQI/AAAAAAAAA38/8IgKiPW6c7E/s800/PB050522.JPG

 

Turn 2: in my turn nothing happened, in my opponent's his termy entered the table, faaaar from me, shot, and did nothing

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGQ11Bn0I/AAAAAAAAA4I/994uGDNhrnA/s800/PB050525.JPG

 

Turn 3 Lukily my last drop pod did not arrive... a shoot with everything ad his termy, but not having longa rage ap 2 weapons did nothing

in his turn, everithing arrived from reserves, putting the land raider in front of the objective in the wood, and al the rest in the left edge of the table

 

During the shooting phase he killed 2 termy in the wood

 

turn 4: My last squad arrived, i made it drop near the land raider, blowing it up!

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGFWJTEXI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/hp83TQMCTTM/s800/PB050530.JPG

 

Knowig the razzorback would give me some problem, i shooted at it with mijolinir squad, making 6 penetrating and 3 glancing hits... after the dice were rolled, it was only shaked.

 

With the others sqad fire, i killed the assault bikes

 

on his turn he assalted squad enherjar, wipping it away, begun to move toward the objectives, and killed another termy.

 

Turn 5: the match so far was veeeery very fast, and i did not realy realized the match was ending till now... at the moment i was holding only 2 objectives, so i decided to move and run... squad mijolnir tried to reach the objective in the wood, failing, the squad in the wood fall back behind a ruind, the third squad streched to cover 2 objectives,

 

in his turn he killed another termy, droppping the squad to 1 man, and moved the squad with corbulo ( on the photo it is a death company, but it count as normal assault squad) in the objective in the wood.

 

He hold 3 objective, me 2, so we rolled the dice... roll roll roll roll... 3, the match goes on!

 

turn 6: i moved squad mijolnir near his assault squad, detaching the priest

 

http://lh5.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGH-NOVcI/AAAAAAAAA3g/Q5T4J6-1epQ/s800/PB060532.JPG

 

with the priest fired on one of his troops, hoping ina lukcy strike... i killed 3 of them! but they did not run away.

 

with the other fire i tried to stop the ryno, but failed

 

In assault phase... after a brutal combat

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGKmOurzI/AAAAAAAAA3s/9_YDPMFLYOY/s800/PB060535.JPG

 

squad mijolnir secured the wood's objective

 

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TNcGL0SkL9I/AAAAAAAAA3w/gg9-cBS0p5A/s800/PB060536.JPG

 

in his turn he succeded in contest one on my objectives with the razorback... and the match ended in this way, 2 to 2

 

Consideration: I found this match.. strange... i mean, i had very little time to shoot at him, and with so many ohjective, i found a lot of difficulty in making an objective safe.. but did some error, The most important, i forgot to move until the end of the game... and i ignored his troops, he has 2 5 man squads on 2 objective, if i would have shoot at them...

[Ladislao]

Another day, another gloriosus battle!

 

Hello fellow brothers, i m back to continue the tale of my loganwing!

 

This time i had a very difficult match... my opponent used this veeeeeeeeery shooty space marines list

 

HQ

 

Librarian with null zone

 

elite

 

2 dreddy with double twin linked autocannon

 

Fast attack

 

3 single land speeders with heavy bolter and cyclone missile launcher

 

heavy support

 

2 predator with 2 laser cannon and 1 autocannon in turret

 

1 thunderfire

 

troops

 

2 10 man squads, one with laser-flamer, the other with laser melta, with 2 razzorback with laser-plasma

 

The game was 2 bases... i won the initiative but ( foolishly ) let him begin...

 

This was what my poor termy sow

 

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TOP6Ku-ar1I/AAAAAAAAA5k/VeFGsg2A3DE/s800/PB110541.JPG

 

 

he split the troops, putting five in the razzoback, and the rest in the ruin he fortified with the techmarine, denying me the possibility to clear it with fire...

First turn... i did not understan how much fire power did he have, but he was veeery unluky and only killed 2 of my termy from the 10 man squad.

 

My turn... i realized one the great weakeness of this list... i did have some firepower, but very few fire point... and did not have any idea of wich unit i should have killed first... and olso, drop to try to destroy as much as possible, or simply drop behind the big ruin, to tray to take the objective? I chose the first, and it was the wrong choiche...

 

so i dropped behind a predator, near his objective, tryng to take away this las cannon carrier with 3 melta and 2 str 8 shots

 

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TOP6PLXOlxI/AAAAAAAAA54/DhXEVUwioc0/s800/PB110546.JPG

 

but i only immobilized it

 

The other squad, with the fire from mijholnir, tried to destry the mobility of his troops, with great succes

 

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TOP6RoAGP1I/AAAAAAAAA6A/EGqYDsZNg5c/s800/PB110547.JPG

 

http://lh5.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TOP6SiXXUwI/AAAAAAAAA6E/zWewbUPJcRI/s800/PB110548.JPG

 

Turn 2

 

His greatest turn... with great luck he killed one single termy in the coloured squad... the one with the power fist :P... and charged the remaining 4 termy with one of his dreddy, keeping them locked till the end of the game

 

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_EI-leQujhOQ/TOP6UvjlGeI/AAAAAAAAA6I/DZ1Sorenmzs/s800/PB110549.JPG

 

The other squad was reduced to 2 elements, who were charged by the librarian, 2 5 man marines squad and the dreddy... and died without killing even an enemy!

 

The others turns were just fire, .. tryng to get a drawn, i destroyed all his fast or mobile units ( 2 land speeders and the free dreddt) and he grinded away squad mijolnir

 

my suicidal squad arrived, destroied the thunderfire, and then get locked in CC with one of his squad near the objective... but not close enought to contest it.

 

The game ended in this way

I had only 1 termy, logan with 1 wound and the priest with one wound on the objective.. he tried to contest it with a land speeder, but having the last turn logan destroyed it in close combat and i get my unworty draw

 

 

Conclusion

 

I could have played better the match...but i also need to change a bit the list... taking away the suicidal squad and 2 meltas, i m able to field 6 long fang with 5 missile launchers... giving some more option to me... for istance, i can aggregate one termy with the ciclone from one of the drop squads, giving me place to drop logan, or eve a super anti tank unith with 5 missile launcher, 1 ciclone, the rune priest and logan giving tank hunter... next match i will test this configuration

Interesting to see how Loganwing armies work. Im thinking of doing a similar list/army, but with scouts too, and perhaps long fangs. Would it still be called a wolfwing?

The list i wrote used more assault cannons and only one cyclone missile launcher in it.

The thing is, cyclone launchers are generally considered better then assault cannons. as 2 frag or krak missiles at 48 inches is generally "better" then 4 str 6 rending shots at 24 inches.

 

I have 1 squad with an assault cannon in my list, and 2-3 cyclone launchers. and I think it would be better to replace the assault cannon but i like the model i made

 

I also think logan/wolf wing's work better with a squad of longfangs along, as it lets you take 5man terminator squads, then attach one away to make space in a drop pod, or to make a nice alpha strike drop pod with logan, 6 longfangs with 5 missiles and a cyclone launcher attached which can fire due to relentless, but I am keeping my army "pure" for the moment to learn all the ups and downs of using pure termies :)
