Hear da Lamentation Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Hiya, only ever played SW, only know SW So I thought I'd try a pretty different list, but one that I do want to be competitive with. My meta is marines, orcs and nids. RunePriest (divination) 7 Wolf Guard. 2 termies with powerfists go with GH 1 termie with cplasma and powerfst, 4 powerarmour and cplasmas and drop pod 10 Grey Hunters 2plasma, standard 10 Grey Hunters 2plasma, standard 5 Longfangs (4ml) 5 Longfangs (4ml) 3 TWC (ss / th / mb|) Imperial Guard Allies HQ Company Command Squad Platoon Command Squad 3 x 10 Infantry Squad (ACx3) Marbo AEGIS DEFENCE LINE (no gun ... couldn't afford it) Plan is to have the drop pod and marbo causing havoc in the back line (psychologically before they even turn up as well I would imagine) EIther the IG take position behind the aegis, or Russ Willing, I get Invulnerable with the RP and then they advance and the LF have the aegis. GH do what they do best, take and hold TWC back the lot up with some nasty CC. Would love comments. (I am a little worries about lack of anti tank with the drop pod unit) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282206-1500-space-wolvesig-guard-allies/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanPesci Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Im sure one of the mods will be happy to move the thread aye id maybe mix a couple of melta into your pod so you have some anti tank in there if needed. You have a lot to take on AV12-13 with decent dice (krak missles and autocannons), but you'l struggle against AV14 The two termies going with grey hunters...i presume your gonna have them up front and soaking up wounds...if so i wouldnt bother with the powerfists, just take the free poweraxe instead. The thunderwolves im not sure work with this list, unless used as a counterattack unit, as theyre gonna be ahead of the rest of the army most of the time, i suppose you could bubble wrap them in guardsmen for a couple turns then have them burst forth Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282206-1500-space-wolvesig-guard-allies/#findComment-3503347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hear da Lamentation Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hi, thanks for the reply DanPesci. I have taken your advice and dropped the fists from the wolfguard termies leading the Grey Hunters. This has given me enough points to get termie armour for my RunePriest (something tells me he will be quite a target for anything which can pick out ICs) :) I've never tried any IG - and Marbo is a real trial. Very different to my usual army which relies on the first 2 rounds to force the opposition to come at me while I outshoot them. This time I will need to take advantage of the 2 deepstrikers. I would appreciate any advice on that - how to deal with a mainly footslogging army with 2 relatively killable deepstrike untis. Obviously I am also concerned with giving away first kill. I usually concentrate on getting this point in the 1st turn, concentrating all of my fire on one killable unit (preferably the best target as well of course) ! With Marbo in particular (and the drop pod) I have 2 easy first kills. And yes, the TWC are my counterattack unit, they can put out a nasty CC punch for relatively low cost as long as you don't have to equip them for running straight at the enemy.
