marvmoogy Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Hi guys, Just thought I'd drop in with a new Saga! My wolves went up against an allied Eldar & Necron (don't ask) army today. It was circa 1500 points and the Wolves were victorious! the Eld-ron force ended the game with 3 Victory Points....the Wolves ended on 12! Highlights from the game: 1) Knight Titans are awesome. Especially when they kill a Wraith Knight in 1 hit. 2) My Lone Wolf has a new Saga. Henceforth, he will be known as the 'Scarab Smiter' for killing off 12 of the things before moving on. 3) Blood Claws on the charge are awesome 4) Murderfang can't hit a barn door at 12", nor can he land a single hit in close combat....certainly didn't make his points back!

marvmoogy Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Getting him into CC wasn't the issue....the dice gods were! He could have totalled the squad I sent him against... but alas....

Sarchas Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 7 pods means he would get the longfangs, grey hunters, blood claws and murderfang podding in on turn 1. That could be handy I suppose..... does mean that if you go second though, the TWC might take a pounding in shooting since its only them and the knight starting on the board.

marvmoogy Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 Got it in one, Sarchas. DPA means that 50% rounding up come in turn 1. I went second, which worked really well. My oppos set up a gun line and I podded in right behind it! The start of the game saw my Knight, the Wolves and the Fangs set up on the board, all of which were behind solid terrain blocking line of sight - they had a boring turn 1! ;-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301072-new-saga/#findComment-3902427 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Great job brother! Did you give any pods deathwind? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301072-new-saga/#findComment-3902533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvmoogy Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 No points for deathwind but the storm bolters did OK. For 35 points, a storm bolter equipped, 3HP unit os a bargain!

marvmoogy Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 He was surprised that the Knight killed his Wraithknight in 1 hit! That thing is seriously good in close combat.
