bluffster Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hi all, I am due to attend a tournament in April and have begun trying to assemble a list that I can take. Please can you have a look and giveme your thoughts. HQ Rune Priest Runic Armour Divination spell Sits with Grey Hunters in Storm Eagle Elites 5 x Wolf guard in TA 1 x double WC 3 x TH/SS 1 x C/P CML PF 1 x C/P PF Drop Pod Troops 10 x Grey hunters Plasma Melta Wolf standard MoW Drop pod 10 x Grey hunters Plasma Melta Wolf standard MoW Drop pod 10 x Grey hunters Plasma Melta Wolf standard MoW 10 x Grey hunters Plasma Plasma Wolf standard MoW Inside Storm Eagle Fast Attack Storm Eagle attack gunship Twin linked multi-melta two twin linked las cannons Vengence launchers Heavy Support 5 x Long Fangs 4 x Missile Launchers 1 x Squad leader 5 x Long Fangs 4 x Missile Launchers 1 x Squad leader That all totals to 1750pts The idea is to have two drop pods come down on turn one to harass/secure objectives. the terminators will drop in where needed. Foot slogging grey hunters can provide back of the boardsupport/sit on an objective or help support the drop pods if required. Long Fangs to do what they do. Storm eagle comes on and positions for the grey hunters and rune priest to attack the opponents weakest point or help out the rest of thearmy. whilst providing both anti-air and anti-surface fire using las-cannonsand multi-meltas. against armour 4 the vengeance launchers will clean upsomewhat, or soften the enemy for assault against lower armour saves. Like I said, please comment, its always worth hearing more experienced peoples opinions.

MustangTC Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I think your TDA WG are over equipped. THSS is very points inefficient for wolves I wouldn't use these. Also I don't like the mix of plasma and melta in your hunter packs. They have problems with different effective range and targets. Melta is for heavy armour and plasma likes to be shot at MEQ, TEQ or light armour. I would live to field a flyer in space wolves colours tho.

Squark Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 You'll get much more milage out of doubling up special weapons (2 plasmaguns in one squad, 2 meltagus in the other). Also, your terminators are... problematic. TH/SS is far too expensive to use (63 points on a 1 wound non-character is a disaster waiting to happen)- If you take the storm shield, stick with a power axe. Also, because specialist weapons now work together regardless of what the weapons actually are, Powefist+Wolf claw is the same price as 2x Wolf Claw, but you still get the +1 attack with the first setup. Finally, I think the two random combi-plasmas are out of place there. You should probably go all assault build, or all combi-weapon+Power weapon. Also, I count 6 Wolf Guard- Is one a pack leader?

bluffster Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Thanks for the replies guys. I was thinking of taking one plasma and melta in each grey hunter group to allow me the choice dependent upon the army and situation i was facing. But I have been losing out on shots when out of range for the melta so maybe 2 plasma in all but one and 2 melta in the last so they can deal with things if needs be. I looked into TH/SS as most of the terminators i come up against are loaded with such weapons. My thought was to try and plasma them to death, which would mean i needed more firepower, or tool up and then at least level the playing field. Ill look into power axes and storm shield costs, then decide on all assault or all ranged. There was only meant to be 5, i think i went crazy and added another!

Jonny Wolf Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Brother, are you sure it's 1750 there? I think you're closer to 1,850 Also, you have 6 Terminators in your Drop Pod (you say five up front, but you list 6). Priest 130 WG Pack 350ish GH Drop Pod 235ish GH Drop Pod 235ish GH 190ish GH 190ish Storm Eagle 250 Long Fang1 145 Long Fang2 145 That's 1870...ish. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270877-1750pt-tournament-list/#findComment-3299856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamaNagol Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 You've over estimated the points costs on most of those Jonny Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270877-1750pt-tournament-list/#findComment-3300274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
