Loki-LaughingDeath Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Okay if you really want to go nuts there Arez this is the way to go... Build all the options for 3 squads each of Blood Claws and Grey Hunters All the options would be 10 Regular Joes 2 of each Special weapon or what I liked to do before the new wolf plasma gun, build up 2 hunters with a 2 handed grip for a Bolt Gun and then paint up a Flamer, Plasma Gun and Melta Gun 1 Plasma Pistoleer 1 Power Weapon 1 Power Fist 1 Wolf Standard 1 Wolf Bitten For Blood Claws it's not quite as Brutal in one way but in another well 15 regular Claws 2 of Each Special or repeat the process mentioned above 1 Plasma Pistoleer 1 Power Weapon 1 Power Fist That pretty much allows you to field what ever you want unless you are a true nutcase and decide to go 6 squads of each like a couple loonies here on the board. Where it gets really nuts is when you start doing the same thing with Long Fangs and then you're just kinda hosed. As far as how many Priests do you need, well that depends on you and how you choose to write up the story of your Company.... Me I am looking at doing something a little unique and am still refining the story but it's almost there.

I may be insane(im a wolf after all :lol: :devil: ) but im not that insane.......yet.You have given me an idea though;Make up all special weapons in generic pack markings then make the rest of my guys BC(about 1 full pack and a 10 or so man pack).I found 7 static pose marines on my desk i'll vow after so i dont need any more GH.

Arez Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm going to use this thread for when i have questions instead of making new ones.one question of mine i take a full 15 man BC pack can I take 2 rhinos and a razorback to transport them all?I know its a weird question but they could be used as a nice mobile wall and or a tank shock unit if i have really bad dice rolls(happens alot for me) and lose most or alot of the pack.

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 If we had 'combat squads', you could do it. But we don't. I would makea ten man BC pack and do the rest up as GH's and or Lone Wolves/Lords/HQ's. I personally like to have multiple models to fit my mood. I have the metal RP, a stoic kneeling RP, and the 'I just killed some :cuss' pose. But this is just me. I see something I like and I get all 'SHINEY' on it...

End of Line I might as well do a full GH pack,claws are only good in full numbers,also i have more than enough HQ's.Would using some as casualty's in a semi destroyed building be a good idea? EDIT:If you take a land raider(any variant) as a dedicated transport does it count towards the 3 HS limit?

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 No, the LR won't if it is indeed a dedicated transport. I'd make them into GH's as well.

Toasterfree Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 2 units of long fangs at least 4 missiles (two in each) and 4 las cannons (2 in each) you can run all missiles if you want, this makes them good against ALL armies, which is what you want to do. 4x 10 man GH units with a flamer/melta in each unit MoTW and a power weapon. rune priest with SoBS with LL and Jaws dreadnought assault cannon+heavy flamer rifleman dread. has enough shooty to take out the cans, enough templates to shred out the boys, rune priest to snipe out any weird boyz or mek boys with KFF. still wolfy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/253282-aurea-lupi/#findComment-3082242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
