Duels

Recommended Posts

So I'm surprised to not see more threads like this around here, but who would you love to see battling who? I was looking through the Golden Demon categories to look at the awesome paint jobs, and saw the "Duel" category. I've only been painting for about 4 months now, but hope to be good enough (one day) to enter. So what do you say? Who would you like to see your favorite Wolf go toe-to-toe with? I'm still trying to decide, and I'm not sure what all the even matchups would be - the universe is so rich and diverse (and our chapter is the MOST) that it's hard to place characters on "equal footing" right?

 

Who would you love to see Bjorn fight?

Who would you matchup against Mephiston?

 

How about our own Old Wolf against Dante?

These kinds of threads don't happen much because there aren't any "even" matches... Whenever a Son of Russ is involved! Not fair to the other guy.

 

I would put the Old Wolf against anyone of his station in another chapter/army. He's been alive long enough to have the experience to fight anyone.

mephiston would more than likey tear bjorn apart that said bjorn has both the anti phykic save and a 5 ++, a re roll on the damage so theres a good fight as for Dante vs Logan Dante if he uses his curse otherwise logan is going to just take the hits and then double him out with a powerfist to the face

 

my turn Ragnar vs Karn the betrayer

Some great ideas, guys. Would love to see any of these matchups. I especially like the idea of a Psyker/Psyker duel between Njal and Ahriman. Anytime we drop one of the Thousand Sons I call it a win. Who would be a good Terminator matchup with Arjac? Are there any named Dreadnoughts that Bjorn could fight?

there was a post last year on the space wolves blog where theyd done matchups with logan vs mephiston

 

as mephiston has his massive charge range, we would always get the first attack (and has higher initiative?)...but as long as grimnar survived the first round of attacks, he would then pummel him to death with TH attacks.

As far as i can remember, they did 4 rounds of this and it ended up 2:2 overall

 

also...

in keeping with traditions (as mentioned in the codex) whenever me and my housemate do a deathwing/DA vs wolves battle, we have a ceremonial showdown after the battle (and will also be doing this in an upcoming apocalypse game where were teaming up against orks).

Youll be pleased to know that a wolf lord on TWM with the usual gubbins beats belial hands down every time (and he should for the points difference! ha)

Never saw that on the Space wolves blog but we certainly did it on Claws and fists with lots of different characters including a phenoix lord off, it was done with proper dice so the outcomes were sometimes surprising.

 

Have a look on claws and fists for arena of death.

I would like to see Grimnar vs Calgar, both are great leaders, have reigned for ages, have mentors that still affectionatly reffer to them like children, and carry some of the craziest batlegear in the game pluss they are the antithises of eachother (While still being loyalist obviously) it would be interesting. I can just picture them on a snowy peak, Calgar yelling a batle cry while charging forwar firing his gauntlets as Grimnar counter chaarges with a long howl prepearing a massive haymayker with his axe.

 

I would also like to see Njal take on Imoeck it would literally be two forces of nature fighting to the death, can you imagine the howling winds as Njal summons a huricane while Imoteck calls down bolts of green lightning in an attempt to nail Njal. Stormlord VS Stormson 'nough said.

Wait what.. since when has Logan Thunderhammer attacks? (i want that codex version as well.)

 

 

he means pf attacks with his axe

 

 

aaaah is it a powerfist he can choose between?

 

i always thought having the axe of morkai meant he could split his attacks between frost blade and thunder hammer (that axe looks more liek itd work like a thunder hammer to me ha) - ive never used hm though so not ever paid too close attention to the rules :lol:

 

suppose frost blade/powerfist still aint toooo bad haha
