BigJon Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 How viable is is a Loganwing army on foot? I'm putting together an 1850 point list and am going for model count with punch but I worry about making it to the other side for objective grabbing. Right now I have 30 Terminator models in the list with Logan, a Rune Priest and Arjac as the only characters. Is that enough wounds and saves to make it 6 turns or should I drop some Terminators and add Drops or Land Raiders?

Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Add power armored Wolf Guard to each squad. Two of them cost a tiny bit more than a bare bones Terminator, and they can soak up some nasty wounds.

Wysten Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 It depends really. I don't think pure footslogging terminators is strictly competative. I just think it lacks the long range firepower to make armies double take, though you have the right ideas down. It depends how you have equiped your squads out though, I don't really have a sense of persective on how to help aside from drop Ajack for pods, then drop the termie squad and try make room for missle Long Fangs. That way you can put the full weight of your fire on one flank. I am a bit tired right now though.

Is that enough wounds and saves to make it 6 turns or should I drop some Terminators and add Drops or Land Raiders? I've played against a similar list using my IG. The first time was a killpoints mission. I used 1850pts against 2000pts. I went first after seizing the initiative. I tabled him in 5 turns. The second game was a wacky score a pt every turn if you're on an objective, on a table with a ton of terrain and I went 2nd. He scored max points but we killed about the same in victory pts. Yes, they were using VPs. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219030-loganwing-on-foot/#findComment-2611873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loketh Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Here's everything you need to know . I don't play Loganwing, but this is a very comprehensive and helpful write-up. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=183468 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219030-loganwing-on-foot/#findComment-2611874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torin Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Just a suggestion. If you drop pod them in drop logan with a group of long fang. But you may want to change those ML to MM or PC.. that would give a real kick into the enemies rear. relentless is always good.

BigJon Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 Thanks Torin, I had thought of that, but I think if I stick Logan with 10 Wolf Guard with Cyclone ML's and give them tank hunter that s four +1 Missile shots from his squad. I think I would rather keep the Long Fangs for some range support. This is also a foot slogger list, if I was dropping them then I would consider Logan in pod with Long Fangs and give them all MM's.

nurglez Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 That link is to a great thread, might have to bring it back to life at some point :lol: I tried foot slogging logan wing 1500 points(logan, rune priest, 4x5 terminators and some lone wolves) and I had trouble with it. Walking up the battlefield was a real issue, especially in objective games (especially the 1 objective in each deployment zone one), and dawn of war is annoying too, lost the first few games I played due to lack of speed. After adding in 3 drop pods in place of the lone wolves I generally do a lot better, though my current list is. logan wolf lord twc ss fb 5 termies drop pod 5 termies drop pod 5 termies drop pod 3 twc ss pf the termy squads have cyclone, ss, pf, combi weps and some wolf claws each, I generally deploy one of the squads for logan to join. The TWC group, while expensive, add some hard hitting and an even more juicy target then my 5man squads :) I've tried to fit in a landraider or 2 at 1500 points and I just cant make it work.

Evilmerlin Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I have a Wolf wing that follows the tenets laid out in that thread. Only played one game with it against an IG list so far but it seems to work well. Rune Priests firing off S8 Living Lightnings due to Tank Hunter is pretty damn awesome.

Lord Ragnarok Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 BigJon, open a thread in the army list section please. This thread should exist on its own.

BigJon Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Already ahead of you Ragnarok, the main point of this thread was to discuss how to run a foot based Logan Wing, I never ment for it to turn into an army list post. I went ahead and started a list post in the army section. I was hopping for some insight on the best way to make a Logan Wing foot list work. Its just this topic bleeds between listing and tactics.
