mughi3 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 (edited) Well an interesting thing has happened Many years ago I stopped playing my ravenwing and deathwing armies when the horrible DA 4th edition codex dropped. since I couldn't play my wings the way I wanted I ended up cycling through 5 additional armies before focusing on other game systems(dust, infinity, victory at sea etc..) to get some variety. I ended up with salamanders in the end thanks to the fine badab war books a few models I loved(looking at you achilles). 5th edition ended up being my favorite incarnation of the game however when 6th dropped it quite literally killed the game at my local shop. So I have spent the past span of years playing house rule modified 5th with friends or other game systems. With the changes to overall game feel that is 8th ed ( still prefer 5th) its a different enough game to get me playing again. As it so happens a friend I have not seen in years came back to the store and gave me the dark vengeance box. as I still have bits of my old RW/DW units I kept the terminators and bikes and shared the rest with a fellow DA player. With the additional terminators I put together a small (things are sooo expensive in 8th) deathwing centric vanguard formation dark angels force at 1,500 points. the maiden outing netted me 4 games and 3 decisive victories...although I totally forgot to take battle pictures 1. VS blood ravens-win 2. VS alpha legion-loss 3. VS blood ravens (different player)-win 4. VS tau-win As soon as I figure out how to post a pic I will the army list- HQ .tech marine- full harness .sammael land speeder ELITE .terminator squad .venerable dread w/Lucius drop pod .venerable dread w/Lucius drop pod HEAVY .land raider helios Edited July 9, 2017 by mughi3 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336381-the-long-road/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
