The Road to Warpcon


Recommended Posts

Hey lads, I'll be going to an Irish Tournament Warpcon which is Irelands biggest one. I will be bringing my Pure DoA army which I have been testing out for a while now and seems to be relatively good while being balanced. The list i am taking is as follows:

 

Libby w/ Jump Pack, Shield + Lance

Libby w/ Jump Pack, Shiled + Lance

Sanguinary Priests x 3 w/ Jump Packs, 3 x Combi-Meltas

Assault Squad w/ Hammer, 2 Meltaguns

Assault Squad w/ Hammer, 2 Meltaguns

Assault Squad w/ Hammer, 2 Meltaguns

Assault Squad w/ Power Fist, 2 Meltaguns

Vanguard (5) w/ Jump Packs, 4 Storm Shields, 2 Claws, Fist, Melta Bomb

 

This will be my first tourney and the points is at 1750. I plan to get ranked for the lolz on the Irish table thing which is for the ETC. Just to see where i would come. It is 2 weeks away exactly so today i decided to get my ass in gear and start painting. So without further ado here is my Finished sergeant of the 3rd RAS squad:

Thanks for the kind words lads! As to the mold lines, I'm not one who cares about them except if the mini/squad is for a competition. There will be a best mini/squad at the tournament so i will take mold lines off whoever i will enter into it. I'm currently finishing of a second mini and I will post pics of him tomorrow as I have other stuff to do tonight. And to the list after playing a few games over the weekend i have decided to change it a small bit by reducing the storm shields to 3 on the vanguard, adding 1 Melta Bomb to them and then adding a claw to one of the priests. got a loss and win today against Wolves and Dark Eldar respectively today.Should be playing a Vulkan list thursday which should be interesting.

 

At the moment this list is at 4W/2D/3L

Hope to get this squad finished by Sunday as i plan to do my last 10 man FT squad + the 5 Man vanguard next week.

Very nice! I'm surprised at how aesthetically pleasing that shade of green contrasts with the red and compliments the yellow. The whole squad will look very nice indeed :P

 

Good luck at the tourney and may Sanguinius bless your dice rolls :P
