I finally decided to throw a bunch of my models I wasn't using into an army so I would have something different to paint. Pics soon<div><br /></div><div>This is a 2000 point Hawk Lords army details below. I have gone for a few cool looking options over what is best value for points etc. </div><div><br /></div><div>HQ</div><div>Captain - Jump Pack, Relic Blade, Power Fist</div><div>Chaplain - Jump Pack</div><div><br /></div><div>Elites</div><div>Dreadnought - Twin Linked Las Cannon, CCW, Storm Bolter</div><div>Dreadnought - Multi Melta, CCW, Heavy Flamer</div><div><br /></div><div>Troops</div><div>10 Tactical Marines - Power Weapon, Plasma Gun, Heavy Bolter</div><div>10 Tactical Marines - Plasma Gun, Plasma Cannon</div><div>5 Scouts - Sgt w/ Power Weapon and Bolt Pistol, 3 x Snipers, 1 Heavy Bolter</div><div>5 Scouts - Sgt w/Power Fist and bolt pistol, 4 x Bolt Guns</div><div><br /></div><div>Fast Attack</div><div>5 Vanguard - Sgt w/Relic Blade, 2 x Power fists</div><div>10 Assault Marines - Sgt w/Power fist, 2 x Plasma Pistols</div><div>6 Bikers - Power Fist, 2 x Melta Guns</div><div><br /></div><div>Heavy Support</div><div>5 x Devastators - 4 x Missile Launchers</div><div><br /></div><div>The aim is to sell off this army once its done. So far I have finished 5 Vanguard, the captain, 6 Bikers, 5 Scouts and a dreadnought. Hoping to take some time off work, get a 5 day weekend and use that time to finish it off. </div><div><br /></div><div>So 2 Questions</div><div> - Would you ever buy a second hand, complete army?</div><div> - What would you expect to pay for a decently painted army like the one described?</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-7331040320863272712?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

I already have Red Marines (Khorne), Green Marines(Nurgle), Blue Marines (Space Wolves), Black Marines (Chaos). So Those are out, I want this army to stand out from the rest. Imperial fists are also out due to a friend of mine already using them. </div><div><br /></div><div>This is basically slapped together with what I have lying around so little inflexible in the list</div><div><br /></div><div>So Give me a chapter name. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-2582732894572823989?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Melta guns were a little unnecessary. This list struggles with High toughness, multiple would MC's and Heavy infantry. </div><div><br /></div><div>So 250 Points to take this to 1500. </div><div><br />Working through this list</div><div>Preist was fine</div><div>The wolf guard did thier jobs</div><div>Melta guns on the grey hunters didn't do much because they tended to stay in thier transports. But I should keep them as tank shock protection</div><div>Preds worked well. </div><div>Razor backs were amazing</div><div>I could drop the upgrades on the preds, I end up with 218 Potential points to do something with.</div><div><br /></div><div>Have to think about this. </div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-3335383915080805352?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

BS 4 </div><div>2. 3+ Save</div><div>3. Ld 9</div><div>4. Str4, Ap5, Rapid Fire, bolt guns. </div><div><br /></div><div>This means that marines can dish out highly accurate fire while surviving enemy fire. This has lead me to embrace attrition warfare. </div><div><br /></div><div>Attrition Warfare is all about Inflicting more damage on your opponent than you receive. The aim is to cripple the enemy force in first 3 turns of the game so that when you advance on turns 4 and 5 the enemy will be overwhelmed. </div><div><br /></div><div>In order to achieve this there are 3 things to consider </div><div>1. Volume of fire - this is about forcing saves. get enough shots in there air and eventually anything dies. </div><div><br /></div><div>Units - Razor Backs, Predators, Marines, Grey Hunters </div><div><br /></div><div>2. Range - making sure you can hit the other guy turn 1. If you can rapid fire something, it can assault you next turn. Keep them at a distance, troops in combat can't shoot and everything falls to pieces. </div><div><br /></div><div>Units - Thunder Fire Cannon, Whirlwind and Stern Guard. Predators and razor backs are also a good source of cheap auto cannons and Las Cannons</div><div><br /></div><div>Note on Scout Snipers: Yes they have range. however a little math hammer. 10 Shots, 5 Hits, 2.5 Wounds, 1 cover save passed. The lack the power and accuracy to be good in this role.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. Power - You want to stop transports ASAP. Keep the enemy infantry from assaulting you. You MUST be able to pop Rhinos, Wave Serpents, Battle Wagons and Land Raiders. No easy task Las Cannons fill a niche here able to pop a land raider from the other side of the table. </div><div><br /></div><div>Units - Razor Backs, Devestators, Stern Guard, Long Fangs, Predators</div><div><br /></div><div>Now quick comparison between C:SM and C:SW</div><div><br /></div><div>HQ - SW have rune priest with Living Lightning, SM have a Chapter Master with a 1 shot obital bombardment</div><div><br /></div><div>Elites - SM have Stern Guard who have Kraken Rounds that fire 30 inches and have access to cheap heavy weapons. SW can pull wolf guard shenanigans and get 2 cyclone missile launchers for 270 points then assign 6 of the power armored members of the squad to Grey Hunter units. </div><div><br /></div><div>Troops - SM have heavy weapons and combat squads, Grey hunters are cheaper</div><div><br /></div><div>Fast attack - Too Similar</div><div><br /></div><div>Heavy Support - Long fangs can engage multiple tagets and pack more weapons, Devestators have bullet catchers which makes them more survivable. SM also has access to the Thunder Fire which is great except in DoW missions. </div><div><br /></div><div>Taking this in to account I've made some changes to my LGB list</div><div><br /></div><div>Space Wolves 1500 Points</div><div>Rune Priest</div><div>5 x Wolf Guard - all with Power Fist, Bolt Gun</div><div>5 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><div>5 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><div>5 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><div>5 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><div>5 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Heavy Bolter, Storm Bolter</div><div><div>9 Grey Hunters - Melta gun</div><div>Rhino</div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolters, Storm Bolter</div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolters, Storm Bolter</div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolters, Storm Bolter</div><div><br /></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><br /></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-2113951140160100376?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

By why choose one type of marines over others? Heres a little insite to my thoughts<div><br /></div><div><b>Vanilla Marines</b></div><div>This is the dex I learnt on, but with BA and SW releases why go back to it? Here are a few good reasons</div><div>1. Scouts in Landspeeders</div><div>2. Thunder Fire Cannon - I love it. </div><div>3. Bikers as troops</div><div>4. A but tonne of characters</div><div><br /></div><div>List of the moment</div><div>Pedro Kantor</div><div><br /></div><div>5 x Scouts w/ Power Fist</div><div>5 x Scouts w/ Power Fist</div><div>5 x Scouts w/ Power Fist</div><div><br /></div><div>Land Speeder Storm</div><div>Land Speeder Storm</div><div>Land Speeder Storm</div><div><br /></div><div>10 x Stern Guard w/Power Fist, 2 x Las Cannons</div><div>Razor Back w/Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><br /></div><div>10 x Stern Guard w/Power Fist, 2 x Las Cannons</div><div><div>Razor Back w/Twin Linked Las Cannon</div><div><br /></div><div><div>10 x Stern Guard w/Power Fist, 2 x Plasma Cannons</div><div>Razor Back w/Twin Linked Heavy Bolter</div><div><br /></div><div>Thunder Fire Cannon</div><div>Thunder Fire Cannon</div><div>Predator w/Auto Cannon and Storm Bolter</div><div>2000 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Dark Angels</b></div><div>I'm going to let you guys fill this one in, It's something have no experience in</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Black Templars</b></div><div>5 man terminator squads with 2 assault cannons each and tank hunters, 20 man troop units with prefered enemy. ouch. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Blood Angles</b></div><div>where to begin. Flying Dreadnoughts, Fleeting Dreadnoughts, armies with 9 dreadnoughts, 6 predators in a single army, Fast transport, Assault marines as troops (Although I'm not a fan), Sanguinary priests, death company. This is an awesome dex with many over the top options. Fights in 40K are short, there also seems to be a trend towards making them more brutal. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. </div><div><br /></div><div>Crazy over the top armies. I may do a BA army one day. maybe Pre-Heresy Dusk Raiders. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Chaos </b></div><div>Khorne - Great assault troops, Kharne, it was my first pick for a chaos army, Currently have started paint on a daemon prince and assembled 16 berzerkers and started salvage on a Vindicator, rhino and predator. </div><div><br /></div><div>Nurgle - Plague Marine and plasma gun spam, T6 Bikers, I like the army but think if your going nurgle the daemon army is better. </div><div><br /></div><div>Tzeench - Awesome but expensive. Also the cover rules in 5th kind of takes the sting of the thousand son bolt guns. </div><div><br /></div><div>Slaanesh - Lash prince ftw. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>SPACE WOLVES</b></div></div></div><div>My current project. Tactical marines are one of my favorite units. Grey hunters are cheaper get an aditional attack and can get a special weapon in 5 man squads. Pure awesome. </div><div><br /></div><div>I know a lot of players love different units from this dex but for me its Grey Hunters, supported by Razor Backs, Predators, a Whirl Wind, Wolf Guard, a Rune priest and maybe a dread or two. </div><div><br /></div><div>Why take Space wolves over the others above?</div><div>- Grey hunters</div><div>- Wolf Guard including Battle leaders are cheaper and just as effective</div><div>- Most armor is the same or in the case of the dreadnought assault cannon , cheaper. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>OTHER NOTES</b></div><div>In general I am not a fan of special characters. Yet I could rattle off a ton of them. In Chaos I am making an exception and taking Kharne the Betrayer because of the general themes I'm running. </div><div><br /></div><div>Chaos is something I am only just starting to get into. So once again back to being a noob</div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-167985620291873298?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

The Extras</div><div>Measuring Tape, Glue, Templates, Dice, Codex, Rule Book, at least 1 copy of your army list for each opponent, 1 for the organizer, 1 for you and a few spare, Objective markers, damage markers, smoke markers</div><div><br /></div><div>3. Transport and Accommodation</div><div>DO THIS EARLY. Check the Venue work out how your going to get there with plenty of time and if you need to stay find somewhere early as cheap accommodation will fill quickly a lot of the time. </div><div><br /></div><div>4. Stuff to Sell - Bring and Buy</div><div>I am using this as an opportunity to clean out my garage. I have almost $2000 worth of GW merchandise up for sale. </div><div><br /></div><div>5. Water, Snacks, Beer. </div><div>If your getting a lift taking your own snacks will save you a lot of time and money. As I am doing this trip on the cheap myself and a few friends are also taking our own booze instead of buying it up there. </div><div><br /></div><div>Drink plenty of water you will be doing a lot of talking. </div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-1492527471467273641?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

I started by looking at the Raptors army I wanted to build. I realised something obvious. I could do the same army better with space wolves. <div><br /></div><div>Then I bought the new BA Codex. Yes it has some nice stuff. Death Company Dreadnoughts, Sanguinary Priests, Baal Predators all caught my eye. But I still like my wolves better. </div><div><br /></div><div>So with Battle in the Vines coming up this weekend having a bring and buy I decided it was time to clear everything I'm not using. I have a bunch of models set aside for different projects that I'm thinking of maybe doing sometime in the future. So I'm selling a heap. Probably 80% of my models. Why? So that I can Finish space wolves and then try a different project.</div><div><br /></div><div>This brings me to Projects. </div><div><br /></div><div>1. Space Wolves</div><div>2.

When preping for an appoc game it dawned on me that I had 12,000 points of marines. It dawned on me I could make at least 5 decent armies out of that<div><br /></div><div>My current army who I have been using for the last 18 months is about the following</div><div>- Wins 6 or 7 out of every 10 games</div><div>- Gets 5 out of 10 for Presentation</div><div>- Gets 5 out of 10 for composition </div><div><br /></div><div>Not a bad army just consistently average. Here are some basic mistakes I made when I started</div><div><br /></div><div><b>1. Get the Guy at the shop to help you paint your first mini </b></div><div><br /></div><div>This will save endless wasted time and paint. I liked the idea of Red Marines. Mechrite Red foundation makes this so much easier. Simple tips will drastic improvements to the speed and quality of your painting</div><div><br /></div><div><b>2. Don't be afraid to proxy</b></div><div><br /></div><div>I built a BA army and found I liked shooty armies. Borrow models, Proxy, avoid puting guns/upgrades on till your sure you like them. Proxy a small army play with the composition till YOU are comfortable. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Start Small</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>Something I am guilty of, something I want to break away from. Play at least a few games with what you have, work out what you are lacking, then buy. I have impulse bought alot of minis and even 2 complete armies. I ended up with 2 tables of models, none of which were complete. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. Pick a Goal</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>Pick a tournament, league game, event, arbitrary figure, say 1750 Points of Space wolves for Lords of Terra. Plan it, Build it, paint it. Then decide on your next project. I usually have side projects for when I hit a wall, usually something different or creative like my Chaos army. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>5. DO ONE THING AND DO IT WELL!!!!</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>This is the best advice I have ever received. Focus, focus, focus. 1 Plasma gun will not do you any good. 8 Plasma guns is very effective. 1 Thunder Fire in a mech force is a target, 1 Thunder Fire backed up by devastators, Tac Marines, long range Dreads or a whirl wind is a major head ache for your opponent. </div><div><br /></div><div>Pick a focus</div><div>- Everything outflanks, infitrates or deepstrikes</div><div>- Cause as many wounds as possible</div><div>- As Many infantry as possible</div><div>- Leaf blower is a great example of this</div><div><br /></div><div><b>WHERE AM I GOING</b></div><div><b>PROJECT 1 - SPACE WOLVES</b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EgX71GQ8I/AAAAAAAAAcw/o9msjMaH3f0/s1600/250px-Space_Wolves_Space_Marine.JPG"><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EgX71GQ8I/AAAAAAAAAcw/o9msjMaH3f0/s400/250px-Space_Wolves_Space_Marine.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454176219291861954" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 281px; " /></a></span></b></span></b></div><div>Getting 1750 Ready for LoT - Will be my go to army for the forseable</div><div><b>Army list (Total Army)</b></div><div>- Wolf Guard Battle Leader</div><div>- Rune Priest</div><div>- 38 Grey Hunters</div><div>- 2 Dreadnoughts</div><div>- 10 Wolf Guard Terminators</div><div>- 7 Wolf Scouts</div><div>- 2 Vindicators</div><div>- 6 Long Fangs</div><div>- Land Raider Crusader</div><div><b>GOAL - COMPLETE ALL BY JULY 1</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>PROJECT 2 - BLOOD ANGELS</b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EgZYJlevI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/8pTyjZvYAJw/s1600/Blood_Angels_Space_Marine.JPG"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EgZYJlevI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/8pTyjZvYAJw/s400/Blood_Angels_Space_Marine.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454176244073855730" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 280px; " /></a>Something A little Different for me. </span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span">ARMY LIST</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">- Chaplain</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">- Lemartes</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">- 30 Assault Marines</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">- 10 Death Company</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; ">- 7 Bikers (need more)</span></b></div><div>- 2 Dreadnoughts</div><div>- More units to be added after the codex is out. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>GOAL - COMPLETE ALL BY OCTOBER 1</b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span">PROJECT 3 - RAPTORS, C:SM</span></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EiNpvhtRI/AAAAAAAAAdY/-AxnX5JPGlc/s1600/Raptor.gif"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tSst1Hcq07o/S7EiNpvhtRI/AAAAAAAAAdY/-AxnX5JPGlc/s400/Raptor.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454178241661220114" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 344px; " /></a></span></b></div><div>Raptors will replace my red skulls as my dedicated shooty army.

And by that I mean traded for a Pred, Dread, Land Raider, Drop Pod and crap ton of marines from a friend. <div><br /></div><div>I will also be selling of a bunch of minis I bought and then never used like Logan Griman, Canis Wolfborn, Marneus Calgar at the Battle in the vines bring and buy. I am also putting my battle company up for sale at Battle in the Vines. More I'll sell it for the right amount than I want to get rid of it at any price. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>SPACE WOLVES</b></div><div>Current LGB list has a Battle Leader, Rune Priest, 38 Grey Hunters, 3 Rhinos, 2 Dreads, 2 Vindicators. Its a little lacking in Range but with the missions (DoW w/ 10 Objectives 1 removed each player turn, Pitched battle w/modified kill points, Pitched Battle w/ 3 objectives on centre line of table and spear head w/ table quarters) don't think this will be too much of an issue. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>BLOOD ANGELS</b></div><div>Still not sure where I will go with this list. Waiting for the codex, This may be my horde army. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>SPACE MARINES</b></div><div>I will be doing a space marine army. Maybe Raptors. Pred, Razor Back, Dread and Tactial Marine heavy. </div><div><br /></div><div>I already have Blue and Red Marines. I am also planning Black Templars and Mentor Legion. I would prefer to avoid these colours, A friend already runs Imperial Fists so they're out. Suggestions appreciated. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>CHAOS SPACE MARINES</b></div><div>Assembly has started on my Berzerkers, Paint has started on my Daemon Prince. I'm also working on warping some terminators to show their fall to Khorn.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-1907936406856601248?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

It 1750 Points and is run with both an open tournament and an Invitational which I will be attending. <div><br /></div><div>Since My current army is my first army and not the best painted I wanted to try something new to showcase my skills. As this is an invitational I don't feel the need to water down my lists like I would normally. I Don't feel the same need to take something that is Fun as well as competitive. </div><div><br /></div><div>But what to take</div><div>Space Wolves: I could easily take Mech space wolves Wolf Guard Battle Leader, Run Priest, 55 Grey Hunters, 6 Rhinos, 3 Predators, Dreadnought. </div><div><br /></div><div>I could Also field Wolf Wing. Logan Grimnar, Njall and 25 Wolf Guard Terminators.</div><div><br /></div><div>Then I was think Blood Angels. I could probably run a very fast and vicious army ofChaplain, 30 Assault Marines, 10 Death Company, 3 Bike squads. </div><div><br /></div><div>Or I could try to get my ultra marines up and running w/ Marneus Calgar, Librarian, 5 Thunder Hammer and Storm Shield Terminators, Land Raider, 2 Marine Squads in Rhinos, Drop Podding Stern Guard, A thunder Fire Cannon and a whirl wind. </div><div><br /></div><div>And then there is guard. 2 Valkeries, 2 Leman Ruses, a Collosus, 3 Sentinels, fill with infantry. </div><div><br /></div><div>So what would you take? 1750 points, Composition is not a factor. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-3018721040338923525?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

"You already have a marine army, so why make a separate Space Wolf Army?"<div><br /></div><div>Lets look at the basic building blocks I use for a marine list and compare those to the SW one</div><div><br /></div><div>HQ's</div><div><br /></div><div>Captain Vs Wolf Lord - Comparable. Very similar</div><div>Captain Vs Wolf Guard Battle Leader - 40 Points cheaper. But no invul. But I can give him a storm shield. 1 point to space wolves</div><div><br /></div><div>Librarian Vs Rune Priest - I may cop flack for this but I like the librarian alot more</div><div><br /></div><div>ELITES</div><div>Wolf Guard VS Terminators - Wolf guard are more flexible, cheaper and all round better</div><div>Wolf Guard VS Stern Guard - Stern guard by a mile. Their special issue ammo gives them an edge</div><div><br /></div><div>TROOPS</div><div>Tactical Squad Vs Grey Hunters - GH are cheaper, have more attacks, can take wolf standards and have a second, free, special weapon. Tactical Squads have higher leadership, get a heavy weapon and can combat squad. For my style of play the combat squadding and heavy weapon don't add much. I rarely use either, Grey Hunters all over</div><div><br /></div><div>The rest of the dex is either very similar or add ons that will only work if you have these basic building blocks in place. </div><div><br /></div><div>So why take the Space Marine Codex? </div><div><br /></div><div>1. Stern Guard - Flexible, reliable and deadly</div><div>2. Thunder Fire Cannon - I love this unit. Again flexible and deadly</div><div><br /></div><div>And now I start to struggle. I'm really starting to think my days of using the marine dex are at an end. Let me know your thoughts. </div><div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-417182708915703334?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Easy to use, good all round choice, best of the bunch</div><div><br /></div><div>Wolf Priest - I can see potential</div><div><br /></div><div>Rune Priest - I haven't seen as many of these around as I'd expect. I haven't tried one yet because of the amount of people who think they are over powered. </div><div><br /></div><div>Logan Grimnar - I like the idea of wolf wing in games of about 2000 points plus but I think they lack the bodies they need to survive the wound generator list being played in my local area. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Elites</b></div><div>Dreadnoughts - Still giving good support and anti tank. The ability to move and shoot puts this on a par with the Predator. </div><div><br /></div><div>Wolf Guard - This is a min or max choice. Either a handful for controlling troops or as I am in the LOT list to get a Land Raider as a transport or go for a multiple of 5 for the assault cannons, heavy flamers and cyclone missile launchers. </div><div><br /></div><div>Wolf Scouts - I love the idea, I just haven't found a way to squeeze them in yet. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>TROOPS</b></div><div>Grey Hunters - Pure awesome. 2 Special weapons (1 free), Wolf standards are great, and you can attach wolf guard. I have 50 in the works, will probably end up with 60 before I call this army finished. </div><div><br /></div><div>Blood Claws - Its not that they're bad, it just that grey hunters are better and cost the same points. </div><div><br /></div><div>Rhino - You will need to be able to transport 10 men. razors are better for C:SM, rhinos for C:SW</div><div><br /></div><div>Drop Pod - Get your men in the thick of it. You have counter attack and a wolf standard so getting assaulted is not always a bad thing. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>FAST ATTACK</b></div><div>I am not a fan of fast attack for marines, I either do it big (C:BA) or not at all. </div><div>Swift claws and Sky claws are ok, but I'm saving mine till I see the BA Dex. </div><div>I'm still not a fan of land speeders either.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b></div><div>Long Fangs - Love the shooting at 2 targets, the only draw back is the lack of bullet catchers. </div><div><br /></div><div>Predator - Love them</div><div>Vindicator - Still under priced by about 40 points</div><div>Land raiders - Bullet Magnets. make a great distraction. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>IF I WAS STARTING AGAIN FROM SCRATCH</b></div><div>this would be my shopping list</div><div>5 SW Terminators</div><div>5 x SW Boxes. </div><div>3 x Rhinos</div><div>1 x Land Raider</div><div>2 x Vindicators</div><div>2 x Dreadnoughts</div><div><br /></div><div>This would give you 2000 points. and a good mix of anti Horde, Anti MC/Heavy Infantry and anti tank. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-2216763178250767658?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

I have since decided to do a&nbsp;separate&nbsp;army for each dex. Here is where I'm heading with this<br /><br /><b>1. Codex Space Wolves - Bjorn Stormwolf's Great Company&nbsp;</b><br />- Vindicators, Bikes, Predator, Land Raider, Wolf Gaurd Terminators, Grey Hunters, Drop Pods, dreadnoughts, aggressive applications of short range fire power. Snow bases/theme<br /><br /><b>2. Codex Space Marines -&nbsp;Aurora&nbsp;Chapter - NEW PROJECT</b><br />- Once space wolves are ready for the table I will be taking a selection of units, stripping them and re-painting them<br />- Librarians, Tech Marines, Terminators, Death Watch, Thunder Fire, Predators, Whirlwind, Rhinos, Razor Backs, Land Raider, Tactical Marines, dreadnougts. Armoured Infantry with heavy armour support, Urban Theme<br /><br /><b>3. Blood Angels</b>&nbsp;- <b>Red Skulls Chapter</b><br />- Assault marines, Tactical Marines, Death Company, CC Terminators, Devestators. - CC Jump Pack Army<br /><br /><b>4. Chaos Space Marines - Red Skulls, After the Fall to Khorne</b><br />- Have models, may need more.<br />-&nbsp;Daemons, Terminators, Khorne Berzerkers, Havoks, Land Raiders<br /><br /><b>5. Black Templars</b><br /><b>- </b>This is one of the best looking space marine armies out. Now they just need a dex. I have heard wispers of either them getting redone next year. Modding them with shields, swords, tunics.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-7909019815273187733?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

The army is fully and consistently painted, Based, Squad Marked. Comes with &nbsp;magnetic display tray and over 100&nbsp;magnetized&nbsp;models.&nbsp;It will officially go on sale 15th of April 2010 to finance other projects however I am will to have&nbsp;preliminary&nbsp;discussions with interested parties.<br /><br />One last blast at Battle in the Vines (April 11) and then they will be sold to buy a fresh space marine army that will better showcase the skills I have developed over the last 18 months. At this point a Brazen Claws army is the fore runner to replace my marines as they suit my&nbsp;mechanized&nbsp;infantry approach and have an interesting color scheme.<br /><br />Please send any&nbsp;inquiries&nbsp;to Chad-Mack@hotmail.com, Photos available soon as will a full&nbsp;itemized&nbsp;listing. I am only interested in selling a complete set. Army is currently located in Gosford, New South Wales, Australia.<br /><br />This army will be listed on several forums closer to the selling date.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-2709366620433621650?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

I have a large army but I'm not entirely happy with some of the painting and modeling. Ideally I would like to sell the army and then rebuild a smaller force with more customization and theme to it. </div><div><br /></div><div>This army includes some of the first models I ever painted and although it has been fun I have learned a lot since I started and would really like to put together a first rate marine army. </div><div><br /></div><div>Here is a brief list of whats up for grabs. I'm probably looking to sell mid-late this year. Ideally I would like to sell in large batches.

I am a huge fan of tactical marines. Grey hunters are cheaper, have more attacks, 2 special weapons and have wolf standards. Hoping to get them running for Lords of Terra. </div><div><br /></div><div>I have finished 1 Wolf Guard. I have a land raider, 50 Grey hunters, 2 dreadnoughts, 1 wolf Guard, 2 drop pods and a Predator nearing completion. I have another 8 wolf guard, a mess of characters, some swift claws and some wolf scouts in the works. I will need some transports to make it work, 2 razorback/rhinos should do it. </div><div><br /></div><div>I'll probably sell this army as well once its done. </div><div><b><u>IMPERIAL GUARD</u></b></div><div>This will work, But I need to spend about $300-$400 on some valks and tanks to get it where I want it. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>RED SKULLS THE FALL TO KHORNE</u></b></div><div>I have 24 Khorn Berzerkers, some Terminators, Kharne and a daemon prince. I still need some transport, a Blood thirster, some chaos marines or havoks, transports, maybe fire support and maybe some raptors. Probably be my 2011 Army</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>SIDE PROJECTS AND THINGS TO COME</u></b></div><div><b>Blood Angels </b>- I may keep some marines a side ready for this release. I am not a fan of assault marines but I'll see what its like. I'm definitely not selling all my red marines before I see a physical copy of this dex. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Black Templars</b> - I love the look and fell of this army, And they have some great content in their dex such as their Terminators. The conversion options are great. This is something I would love to do and I have started putting models aside for it but at present there are to many other things that require my attention. There is a rumor that Either this army or Dark Angels is coming late 2010 or Early 2011 that would definitely be a deciding factor</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Dark Angels</b> - Again I love the modeling and conversion possibilities. However the current des is sub par. If they get a new dex its something I will definitely look at. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Orks</b> - The Blazing Skulls - Sneaky, pyromaniac orks, jungle bases, endless conversion and kit bashing potential. This is an army that I would really love to do. Its now looking like a late 2011, early 2012 project. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>Final Notes</u></b></div><div>I find the most enjoyable aspect of this hobby for me is the assembly and painting. I love sitting down with a codex and planning out an army. So this is what I'm going to keep doing, Buying an army, assemble it, paint it, keep the core army (2000 points max) sell the rest and move onto the next one. </div><div><br /></div><div>With my marines I know that I can make almost any army I would run with 2 Captains, 1 Librarian, 10 Stern Guard, 2 Dreadnoughts, 40Tactical Marines, 5 scouts, 4 Razor Backs, 2 predators, 1 thunder Fire cannon, 1 drop pod (Suggest a chapter that would fit, really I'm trying to work it out). </div><div><br /></div><div>So I'd like to find something else to do with the rest. At the moment I'm re tasking but selling is an option aswell. I'm hoping to get to this point with all my armies. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-3900479694343716754?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

This a fast as possible run down of my opinions of the Space Marine Dex. Feel free to ask questions at the end and I will elaborate. <div><br /></div><div><u><b>RULES</b></u><br /></div><div>And they shall know no Fear - can regroup when under half strength, Go fearless when being chased down</div><div><br /></div><div>Combat Tactics - You can choose to fail moral tests - Use it to fall back out of assault range, or to leave combat at the end of your opponents assault phase.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>UNITS</u></b></div><div><b>HQ</b></div><div>Special Characters - Can work but are often to hard for a noob to come to grips with. Think about them later, they do often define your strategy. If you do want one Pedro is a nice easy intro character</div><div><br /></div><div>Chapter Master - Bombardment not worth 25 Points. Take a captain.</div><div><br /></div><div>Honour Gaurd - To expensive to be usefull</div><div><br /></div><div>Captain - A good bogging unit. Distracts the opponent and gives a little CC Punch</div><div><br /></div><div>Command Squad - You need the points else where.</div><div><br /></div><div>Librarian - Best value for money HQ. A little fragile. Avenger and gate are probably the best. Null zone is situational, the rest are pretty crap</div><div><br /></div><div>Chaplain - Take a captain</div><div><br /></div><div>Master of the Forge - I want to like it but I don't. 6 dreads are nice, Conversion beamer has never really worked for me, might reserve judgement and try it again</div><div><br /></div><div><b>TROOPS</b></div><div>Tactical Squads - Divide the point limit by 500 and round up. That is the MINIMUM number you should take. </div><div>Scouts - Point/troop fillers. Unless they are power fist units in storms. then awesome</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Transports</b></div><div>Rhino - cheap. effective</div><div>Razor - Transport of Choice. Need more</div><div>Drop Pod - 1 is suicide, but that can be ok. I'm not a fan of the full drop pod army</div><div><br /></div><div><b>ELITES</b></div><div>Terminators - To many other better options</div><div><br /></div><div>Assault Terminators - Same as above</div><div><br /></div><div>Stern Guard - Great unit. Drop pods work with them. I run them as suicide distrations</div><div><br /></div><div>Dreadnought - Under Priced mobile heavy weapons. Take at least 2. </div><div><br /></div><div>Ven Dread - Over Priced</div><div><br /></div><div>Iron Clad Dreadnought - there are better uses for the 30 points. </div><div><br /></div><div>Tech Marine - Could work with Plasma cannon servitors but there are better places to spend the points</div><div><br /></div><div>Legion of the Damned - Sternguard in a drop pod are better</div><div><br /></div><div><b>FAST ATTACK</b></div><div>Assault Squad - Mostly useless. I know people disagree but there are too many other ways to spend your points</div><div><br /></div><div>Vanguard - Novelty. To expensive</div><div><br /></div><div>Land Speeder - Nice idea, Cheap, to fragile</div><div><br /></div><div>Bikes - Work well in numbers, Expensive to buy, if your opponent stays above ground level your screwed. </div><div><br /></div><div>Land Speeder Storm - Great unit. Should get some. </div><div><br /></div><div>Scout Bikes - Look good on paper but aren't really needed. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Heavy Support</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>Devestators - Work well as 5 man squads in small games and 10 man squads in big ones. can survive better than tanks. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thunder Fire - Expensive to buy, hard to put together, but worth it, I have trouble leaving it at home</div><div><br /></div><div>Land Raider - Obsolete. 250 points thats to easy to kill. any serious player can take it out turn 1-2</div><div><br /></div><div>Predator - Auto cannon, Heavy Bolters, Stormbolter is 10 shots for 95 points, hard to beet for wound output on MC's</div><div><br /></div><div>Whirl Wind - Indirect, Ignores cover. it just works</div><div><br /></div><div>Vindicator - the most under-priced unit in the dex. little short on range, works well in pairs, 3 is overkill. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>STRATEGY</u></b></div><div>Attrition warfare works for marines - Inflicting casualties with out taking them. I generally go for cheap units that can effectively put out wounds while having a large fire base that can still be effective even after a number of casualties. In larger games a distraction to slow your opponents approach is also usefull</div><div><br /></div><div>got questions?

Its a list of 8 tournaments I'm hoping to make to it too over the next 12 Months. <div><br /></div><div><u><b>C4 - Central Coast Corsairs Cup</b></u></div><div>Location: Tuggerah, NSW</div><div>Points: 1500 </div><div>Days: 1 </div><div>Games: 4</div><div>Approx Players: 30-35</div><div>Army I'm Taking: Space Wolves - Grey Hunter Pack</div><div><br /></div><div>This is a local tournament run by a rival war gaming club. Should be a fun and fairly relaxed day. However this is one of the first opportunities of the year where players can qualify for high lords and with the new nids dex out this may get a little competitive. </div><div><br /></div><div>RATING 2/5 - Its an average local tournament, fun but no big deal to skip. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><u><b>Battle in the Vines</b></u></div><div><div>Location: Greta, NSW</div><div>Points: 2000 </div><div>Days: 2</div><div>Games: 5</div><div>Approx Players: 40-50</div></div><div>Army I'm Taking: Space Marine Battle Company</div><div><br /></div><div>This is a tournament that people either prepare for all year or that they just take what ever they have painted to. This is unique in NSW as the only tournament of this scale. It takes serious preparation to do well. Build and start painting a list well in advance that you can easily swap units and upgrades in and out of as the meta game changes. </div><div><br /></div><div>After last year I can say that a tray to carry your army around on and CLEAR squad markings are vital. The first makes it easy to pack up, deploy and move your army about, the second stops the confusion that sets in when most games have a bare minimum of 100 models on the board and some upwards of 200. </div><div><br /></div><div>RATING 5/5 full marks.</div><div><br /></div><div><u><b>Unnamed Gosford Good Games Tournament</b></u></div><div><div>Location: Gosford, NSW</div><div>Points: Unknown</div><div>Days: Unknown </div><div>Games: Unknown</div><div>Approx Players: 20-24</div><div>Army I'm Taking:Unknown</div><div>My local store is teasing there will be a tournament held to fill the 3 month gap between BIV and LOT. Nothing had been made public yet. </div><div><br /></div></div><div><u><b>Lords of Terra</b></u></div><div><div>Location: North Sydney, NSW</div><div>Points: 1750</div><div>Days: 2</div><div>Games: 5</div><div>Approx Players: 60-80</div><div>Army I'm Taking:Unknown</div><div>This is the only event to include both an invitational and open tournament. To qualify players need to finish in the top 10% of a tournament (if there are 19 players only 1st will qualify) or be in the top 10 for any of rankings (<a href="http://www.gosfordgamers.net/ATR/index.htm">http://www.gosfordgamers.net/ATR/index.htm</a>). </div><div><br /></div><div>My second at coastal assault was enough to qualify my this year. This tournament is highly competitive. In the invitational players are trying their hardest against the best players in Australia and New Zealand, in the open players see the absence of the top 10% of gamers as a great opportunity to win a tournament. </div><div><br /></div><div>RATING 4/5</div><div><br /></div></div><div><u><b>Mother of All Battles</b></u></div><div><div>Location: Sutherlund, NSW</div><div>Points: 1250</div><div>Days: 3</div><div>Games: 11</div><div>Approx Players: 20-40</div><div>Army I'm Taking: Marines, unless guard are up to scratch</div><div><br /></div><div>This is another tournament that stands out. 11 games over 3 days. You will get to play short, fast games against a variety of opponents and armies. Last year I had an unfortunate draw of 3 Nid armies and 1 space marines day 1, 3 space marines and 1 guard day 2, and 3 tau on day 3. Hoping to get more variety this year. This tournament is a real endurance test. My tip is take an army you can play in your sleep because on day three you might be. </div><div><br /></div><div>RATING 5/5</div><div><br /></div></div><div><u><b>Coastal Assault</b></u></div><div><div>Location: Gosford, NSW</div><div>Points: 1500</div><div>Days: 1</div><div>Games: 4</div><div>Approx Players: 20-25</div></div><div>This is the tournament that got me into High Lords of Terra and its at my local store. </div><div><br /></div><div>RATING 3/5</div><div><br /></div><div>Gosford Shield</div><div><div>Location: North Sydney, NSW</div><div>Points: 1250</div><div>Days: 1</div><div>Games: 4</div><div>Approx Players: 20-40</div></div><div>After gosford hobbies decided it would no longer support war gaming this tournament was picked up by the central coast corsairs, although there were a few minor admin issues in getting it set up is was still a fun day. </div><div><br /></div><div>2/5</div><div><br /></div><div><u><b>Can Con</b></u></div><div><div>Location: Canberra, ACT</div><div>Points: 1750</div><div>Days: 3</div><div>Games: 8</div><div>Approx Players: 90-100</div><div>Army I'm Taking: There will be 2 new codexes out by then. To early to tell</div><div><br /></div><div>This is the biggest event of the year. I've never actually<span><span></span></span> made it to Can Con. I intend to make the extra effort to make it next year. </div><div><br /></div><div>_________</div><div>Also quick 1000 Point List for Tonight. </div><div><br /></div><div><u><b>Codex Space Marines</b></u></div><div><u><b>HQ</b></u></div><div>Librarian - Gate of Infinity, Avenger - 100 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><u><b>TROOPS</b></u></div><div>Tactical Squad - Flamer, Heavy Bolter - 170 Points</div><div>5 scouts - Sniper Rifles - 75 Points</div><div>5 Scouts - sgt w/ Power Fist and Shot Gun, 4 x CCW and Bolt Pistol - 100 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>ELITES</u></b></div><div>5 x Terminators - Cyclone Missile - 230 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>HEAVY SUPPPORT</u></b></div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Storm Bolter</div><div>Vindicator- 115 Points</div><div>Vindicator -115 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Not a nice list, But I want to try out the Elites and Heavy Support combo for a possible LOT list. </div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-3725249263391645376?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

This year I am taking 101 marines. That't it. No armour, no terminators, just marines. This raises an interesting problem. How do you transport them? Do you really want to take them in and out of their case and sort them before and after each game. No. </div><div><br /></div><div>So the answer is a tray. The problem with trays is that one good bump and all your hard work ends up smashed on the floor. The answer is magnets. </div><div><br /></div><div>What you need </div><div>1. A flat surface magnets can stick to like a cheap white board, Metal sheet, I used an oven tray. </div><div>2. A small Paint roller</div><div>3. Cheap acrillic paint</div><div>4. Flock</div><div>5. Damp Cloth</div><div>6. Magnets</div><div>BEFORE YOU START - Put your army on the tray and make sure it fits</div><div><br /></div><div>Firstly the tray. if you can take a magnet when you buy it to make sure.

For years I had been an avid player of the VS System TCG, even running a local club in Newcastle, NSW, unfortunately that game came to an end and I found myself without a hobby. </div><div><br /></div><div>I have always been one of those people who needs something to occupy their idle time. I'm never really satisified just watching TV, I need to be watching TV, eating something, playing a game on the computer and trying to work out how to fit that 4th Sorcerers Treasure card into my Secret Society of Super Villians deck. </div><div><br /></div><div>About this time I heard that Good Games was opening franchise in Gosford, NSW, where I had moved for work the previous march. After having to travel 2 hours from Newcastle to Sydney for TCG tournaments a Good Games Store in my local area sounded great.</div><div><br /></div><div>Although there were no VS games to be had I did join in a demo game of 40K and fell in love with it. Black Reach was out, I'd just had a pay rise and there was a 15% off GW if you joined the local league. So I picked an army. Blood Angels. Aggressive, fast, seemed like a good choice. </div><div><br /></div><div>Then the 5th ED Space Marine Codex came out. I was blown away and promptly forgot all about the Blood Angels. I started going along with the club to tournaments, Gosford Shield, Battle in the Vines, Lords of Terra, along the way I picked up second hand mini's from friends who used to play, When the 5th ed Imperial Guard Codex came out I decided to start a small army, then bought more, and now I'm trying to get some more Valks and tanks together. I bought the first minis in January 2009, I still haven't finished a model. </div><div><br /></div><div>Then there was MOAB. The Mother of all Battles. 11 Games, 3 days and the Space Wolf Release on the same weekend. I already had some metal wolves from a friend, so I got carried away, bought a bunch of stuff, now I have a decent size space wolf army. All un-painted. (Painted VS Unpainted VS incomplete list at the bottom)</div><div><br /></div><div>My first piece of real success came late last year. Fresh from winning the local league I entered a local tournament and got second place. </div><div><br /></div><div>so after 18months of gaming my ranking in Australia and New Zealand (from http://www.gosfordgamers.net) sit at </div><div>1254 Players Total</div><div>Overall - 82nd</div><div>Battle - 85th</div><div>Sports - 125</div><div>Composition - 76th</div><div>Painting - 71st</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>The WIP List</u></b></div><div><b><u>COMPLETED IN FULL</u></b></div><div><b>Red Skulls Chapter - C:SM</b></div><div><div>2 Librarians</div><div>2 Captains</div></div><div>64 Tactical Marines</div><div>5 x Scout Snipers</div><div>6 x Dreadnoughts</div><div>10 x Stern Guard</div><div>20 Assault Marines</div><div>20 Devestators</div><div>1 x Predator</div><div>2 x Rhinos</div><div>1 Thunder Fire Cannon</div><div>Whirlwind</div><div>1 Drop Pod (needs minor repairs)</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>INCOMPLETE</u></b></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal; "><b>Red Skulls Chapter - C:SM</b></span></b></div><div>Marneus Calgar </div><div>7 x Captains - May Retask</div><div>2 x Chaplains</div><div>1 x Librarain</div><div>4 x Honour Guard</div><div>1 x Command Squad</div><div>10 Tactical Marines</div><div>5 Close Combat Scouts</div><div>4 Assault Marines - May be re-tasked depending on C:Blood Angels in April</div><div>5 x Heavy/special Weapons marines</div><div>10 Assault Terminators</div><div>10 Terminators</div><div>2 x Vindicators</div><div>Land Raider</div><div>Tech Marine - May get Retasked</div><div>2 x Masters of the Forge w/ Conversion Beamers</div><div>3 x Scout Bikes</div><div>1 x Land Speeder</div><div><br /></div><div><b>BLOOD ANGELS</b></div><div>Chaplain Lemartes</div><div>10 x Death Company</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Space Wolves</b></div><div>Logan Grimnar</div><div>Ragnar Black Mane</div><div>Rune Priest</div><div>11 x Wolf Gaurd Terminators</div><div>2 x Dreadnoughts</div><div>1 x Bike Wolf Guard</div><div>52 x Grey Hunters</div><div>7 Wolf Scouts</div><div>2 Drop Pods</div><div>6 Swift Claws</div><div>Predator</div><div>Land Raider Crusader</div><div>6 x Long Fangs</div><div><br /></div><div><b>IMPERIAL GUARD</b></div><div>2 x Command Squad</div><div>5 x Infantry Squad</div><div>2 x Veteran Squads</div><div>3 x Heavy Weapons Squads</div><div>5 x Ratlings</div><div>1 x Chimera</div><div>1 x Leman Rus Battle Tank</div><div>1 x Leman Rus Demolisher</div><div>1 x Basilisk</div><div>1 x Valkyrie</div><div>10 x Storm Troopers</div><div><br /></div><div><b>KHORNE CHAOS SPACE MARINES</b></div><div>Daemon Prince</div><div>Kharne the Betrayer</div><div>5 Retasked Terminators</div><div>24 Khorne Berzerkers</div><div>(will use Red Skull Vehicles with different pintle mounts)</div><div><br /></div><div><b>APOCALYPSE</b></div><div>War Hound Scout Titan(scratch Built)</div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>STILL WAITING USE</u></b></div><div>20 Terminators</div><div>20 Space Marine Scouts</div><div>50 Marines </div><div>6 Jump Packs</div><div><br /></div><div>Maybe see what happens when Blood Angels and the rumoured Black Templar books come out. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><u>What's Next</u></b></div><div>I going to keep doing what I'm doing.

They're fast, tough and almost unbeatable in close combat. The answer for marines is wound saturation. After seeing the new nids in action on Thursday night the answer seems obvious, kill them before they get near you, and if you can't, that unit is history. </div><div><br /></div><div>There are several key attributes to note</div><div>1. Nids are tough - Many at T6</div><div>2. They have multiple wounds and can regenerate</div><div>3. They are fast. Gene steelers have fleet and can pop out of terain</div><div>4. Marines cannon beat them in close combat. Nurgle Daemons can, maybe orks, but marines might aswell be gaurd in terms of CC. </div><div><br /></div><div>So here is the challange. How to deal out the most St5, and higher hits. I'm going to assume this is for C4 (1500 point) due to the dawning realisation that my Space Wolves may not be done in time. Lets look at the options</div><div><br /></div><div><b>HQ</b></div><div>Captain is a good start, cheap, survivable, good variety of load outs</div><div>Librarian - Another cheap choice. Avenger, and gate could be usefull, so could vortex of doom</div><div>Lysander - Tough as nails, but I don't think even he could go toe to toe with these monsters</div><div>Pedro Kantor - Stern Guard as Scoring. A little expensive but I'll see how the points work out</div><div><br /></div><div><b>TROOPS</b></div><div>Tactical Marines - Flamers, Heavy bolters and missiles are good. Power weapons and Fists seem like a waste</div><div>Scouts - Snipers seem like an obvious choice. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>ELITES</b></div><div>Stern Guard - Hellfire rounds, Dragon Fire Rounds, Kraken Rounds, Great.</div><div>Dreanought - Walking fire bases. Definitely needed. Auto cannons, Heavy flamers, assault cannons</div><div>Terminators - Thunder Hammer, storm shield may work, seems a little risky. Assault cannon is a possible</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>FAST ATTACK</b></div><div>Not much here. I really want to keep my distance. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b></div><div>Predator - 10 shots of dakka for focussed fire</div><div>Whirlwind - A definite</div><div>Thunder Fire Cannon - Another obvious choice</div><div>Vindicator - Range is to short</div><div>Land Raider - To Expensive at 1500. Does not produce enough shots per point. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Here is the list</div><div><b><u>1500 Point - Xeno Hunters</u></b></div><div><br /></div><div><b>HQ</b></div><div>Librarian - Gate of Infinity, Avenger - 100 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b>TROOPS</b></div><div>10 Tactical Marines - Flamer, Heavy Bolter - 170 Points</div><div>Rhino - 35 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>10 Tactical Marines - Flamer, Missile Launcher - 170 Points</div><div>Rhino - 35 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>10 Scouts - 9 Snipers, Heavy Bolter - 150 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>ELITES</b></div><div>Stern Guard -2 x Heavy Flamer, 3 x Combi Melta - 285 Points</div><div>Drop Pod - 35 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Dreadnought - 2 x Twin Linked Auto Cannons - 125 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Dreadnought - Multi Melta, Heavy Flamer - 115 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b></div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Storm Bolter - 95 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Whirl Wind - 85 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Thunder Fire Cannon - 100 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>___</div><div>The Tactics are simple. Wound saturation. Stern Guard are there to take out an early target of opportunity, Snipers wound on a 4+ Hell fire shells wound on a 2+. Dreads lay some early fire and then try to hold up the assaulter's. Rhinos can be used as either a get away or as a roadblock. </div><div><br /></div><div>Shots go on the big stuff, Templates on the small, try to hit the big stuff at the same time if possible. </div><div><br /></div><div>Remember a wounded nid is just as dangerous as a healthy one. Shoot to kill, focus on one target at a time. In objective missions try to wipe out their troops and keep yours intact. In kill points take out big stuff first, and gene steelers. They will slaughter you in close combat so take them down quick. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-989504104435944076?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

This army has always been more about making something that looks awesome (Pics soon, Maybe tomorrow night if all goes well), rather than just trying to get something for a tourney done on time. <div><br /></div><div>Anyone know of another box that might be good for this? What can I do with a bunch of dwarf bodies? I'm thinking of keeping them to decorate bases of my Khorne Daemons when I build them, I'm open to suggestions. <div><br /></div><div>and heres the Wednessday top 10 that I kind of sort of do. </div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline; "><b>TOP 10 PROJECTS TO FINISH</b></span></div><div>This is just a little list of 10 projects I'm hoping to finish,Eventually, in no particular order, which goes to 12. </div><div><br /></div><div>1. Red Skulls - Space Marines - <i>Second company nearly finished. 6 Dreadnoughts done, multiple HQ's, 10 Stern Guard, 5 Scouts finished, 30 Termies in varying stages</i></div><div><br /></div><div>2. Space Wolves - <i>Taking my Time. C4 list (1500 Points) is almost assembled. Spending a lot of time painting it to get it right. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>3. Cadian 634th Desert Company - <i>Needs more tanks and Valks. This will be a long term project.</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>4. Warhound Titan - <i>Its assembled, to a degree where I can put it on the table and you know what it is. Its been this way for about 6 months. Really should finish it but other thing get in the way.</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>5. Blood Angels - <i>My red skulls are painted in thier colors. Now I just need to finish my death company and probably get my hands on Dante, a couple of Baal Preds and a couple of furiosos. Maybe more assault marines, it really depends on the dex. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>6. Red Skulls, The Fall to Khorne - <i>Yes my red skulls are going to give into their rage and fall to the blood god. Thinking of getting this army ready for next years BIV as a follow up to taking a battle company this year. </i></div><div><br /></div><div>7. Orks, The Blazing Skulls Clan- <i>This is something so appealing to my about an infantry heavy force of sneaky pyromaniac Orks. Plenty of Nobz, Boyz and Komandos. This will take a while. And green is a nice break from all the red. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>8. Khorne Daemons - <i>This is another project that has grabbed me. I'm hoping to get my hands on a blood Thirster for my CSM army later this year, should be good.</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>9. WFB The Empire - <i>I love the idea of taking a gun to a knife fight. It sill depend on whats happening around the time of the new release, guess we'll see.</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>10. Tau - <i>I love gun lines. And rail Guns. And Crisis Suits. Might wait for the next dex though.</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>11. Scratch built Reaver Titan - <i>If I ever get my Warhound finished</i></div><div><br /></div><div>12. Grey Knights - <i>This is another maybe army. Maybe just a small force. 1500 points or so. </i></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-4161046135209141443?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Just haven't got to it yet. Secondly I discovered the list I want to take is 15 points over limit. So here is my new take on it. I've also tried to give an insight into my thought process<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><b style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></b></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>HQ</b></span></div><div>Wolf Guard Battle Leader - Terminator Armour, Combi Plasma, Chain Fist, Saga of the Beast Slayer- 140 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><i>I have never been a fan of expensive HQ's. I would rather skimp on the HQ and buy another unit. My tactics generally revolve around disrupting and then overwhelming an opponent rather than just charging my biggest guy against my opponents. Wolf guard battle leaders are a little squishy but are the best value for money</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline; "><b>TROOPS</b></span></div><div>1st Grey Hunters - 10 Man - 2 x Melta Guns - 160 Points</div><div>Drop Pod - 35 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>2nd Grey Hunters - 10 Man - 2 x Plasma Guns - 170 Points</div><div><div>Drop Pod - 35 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>3rd Grey Hunters - 10 Man - 2 x Melta Guns, Power Fist - 185 Points<br /><div><br /></div><div>4th Grey Hunters - 10 Man - 2 x Plasma Guns - 170 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><i>Grey hunters are really the only viable troops choice in the SW codex. Blood claws are to unreliable. By taking 40 grey hunters I should have the volume of fire I need. The drop pods are there for Fluff(Ragnar Blackmane's Great Company) and disruption. I do not expect the first unit I drop to live, that is why I now have 4. Their job is to drop down, kill something and then have the opponent shoot them so that the rest of the army can advance. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>As for the lack of CCW's this stems from my experiences with Stern Guard. I have run a power fist in my DP Stern Guard for about 6 months and it has never done a thing. It just seems like a waste of points for a suicide unit. Also if my Grey hunters get charged they get 3 attacks each.</i></div><div><i>30 Attacks, 15 Hits, 7.5 Wounds, 2 Dead Marines. I also want to try out wolf standards but decided to leave that for the next list. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>As for the specific Units</i></div><div><i>1st - Drop early, Pop a tank, Then die or charge something else</i></div><div><i>2nd - Drop late, take out a troops choice/Problem unit, capture objective.</i></div><div><i>3rd - Run in the land raider with the HQ, charge something</i></div><div><i>4th - Defense, support the armor, hold home objective</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline; "><b>ELITES</b></span></div><div>Dreadnought - Assault Cannon, CCW, Heavy Flamer - 115 Points</div><div><br /></div><div>Dreadnought - Assault Cannon, CCW, Heavy Flamer - 115 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><i>I have said this plenty of times. I love dreadnought. I rarely play an army with out 2. in terms of load outs I find Twin linked Las/Missile to be my most common choice. I do also like a pair of twin linked auto cannons. Multi melta's are a little hit and miss, Plasma cannons are great but for some reason I hardly ever use them. My assault cannon dreads are there to be an infantry killer, the range is a little low and a plasma cannon would be better but I like the 4 shots. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>The CCW and heavy flamer are there for fluff and some horde protection. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b></span></div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Las Cannon Sponsons - 120 Points </div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i>This is my main tank hunter. It should also work against MC's. It is also slightly fluffy since SW's were the first ones to put las Cannons on predators. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>Land Raider Crusader - 250 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><i>The optimal configuration would feature a storm bolter and multi melta. This is firstly a distraction. Land Raiders are notorious bullet magnets. The second use in troop killer. Drop the troops and go on a rampage of ramming and fire storms. once again slightly fluffy. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>OTHER NOTES</b></span></div><div>I am generally not a huge fan of Wolf Guard. I do intend to use some, sometime, but at the moment I'm sticking with more familiar territories. Thunder Wolf Cav would be nice but I don't have time to model them. As for Rhino's I'm going off them in general. They're to fragile and slow. </div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><i><br /></i></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-6519454366937914313?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

After arriving a little early at Gosford hobbies I found it wasn't yet open and I was the first to arrive. So I sat down to read the players pack. I then realised the tournament was at the Central Coast Corsairs in Tuggerah. So quick phone call and a $35 cab ride later I arrived at the correct venue with 10 minutes to spare before round 1. <div><br /></div><div>I then set up my army ready to take some shots only to realize I hadn't charged my camera.

For nearly 20 years they fought a guerrilla war. Sabotage, ambush, salvage and survival, this was their life. The survivors eventually stole a shuttle and escaped only to be accused of corruption. They separated from the Imperial Fists as to not disgrace their founding chapter and painted their armor blood red in remembrance of the brothers they lost. </div><div><br /></div><div>Eventually they settled on the death world of Golgotha. A hot and hostile planet. Although allowed to live by the inquisition they continue to be untrusted and are only called upon for the most suicidal of missions. </div><div><br /></div><div>More recently they have undergone further investigation by the inquisition after rumors the Red Skulls Chief Chaplain Markus Grey recruited the survivors of a penal legion who fought beside his chapter. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">Notable Red Skulls</span></b></div><div><b>Chapter Master Augustus Grant </b>- Who wields a mighty relic blade and storm shield. </div><div><b>Chief Chaplain Markus Grey </b>- A fierce figure in terminator armor</div><div><b>Chief Librarian Maximilian Angelus </b>- Known as the daemon slayer. </div><div><b>2nd Company Captain </b><b>Johan Casidus</b> - a mighty swordsman and expert marksman</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>___________</div><div>CC always welcome.

Firstly I work in IT at a place that takes about an hour and a half to get to and I'm getting married in 5 weeks. <div><br /></div><div>As far as the war dollies go this year I am aiming for </div><div>- at least 4 tournaments - Gosford Shield, BIV, MOB, Lords of Terra</div><div>- 3 Leagues - Going to have to skip Q1</div><div>- Finish Marines, SW, Guard, BA Armies and maybe try to start 40K Orks and WFB Empire. I May also try out what ever the fabled second marine release is. </div><div><br /></div><div>My BIV army is finished. Kind of. I'm still debating a list change but think I have made up my mind, might need testing. My Gosford shield army is done. For my LOT army for July I have 5 termies, 2 Vinicators and a Land Raider to finish. MOAB is more than 7 months off. </div><div><br /></div><div>1 Tournament I didn't see my self playing in is C4. Mainly because I had only heard of it recently. It just appeared on my local clubs message board as being in my home town, at a time I seem to be free. So I figured I might as well try to get some Space Wolves ready for it. </div><div><br /></div><div>I had a long talk about the dex with our club leader Damien on Friday night over a few beers. I've been thinking that I am taking the wrong approach to the army. So I decided to think about it in relation to the Space Marines and Blood Angel Codex's which I am fairly familiar with and even the Black Templar, Chaos and Dark Angels Codex's which I am less familiar with.</div><div><br /></div><div>The next consideration is that I have little money to make this work. </div><div><br /></div><div>1500 Points Light Attack Force</div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">HQ</span></b></div><div>Wolf Guard Battle Leader - Terminator, Chain Fist, Combi Plasma - 140 Points</div><div><br /></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">Elites</span></b></div><div>Dreadnought - Twin Linked Auto Cannon, Heavy Flamer -125</div><div>Wolf Scouts -5 Man, Melta Gun - 85 Points</div><div>Wolf Guard </div><div>- Combi Melta, Power Fist - 43 Points</div><div>- Terminator, Combi Plasma, Chain Fist -53 Points</div><div>- Terminator, Combi Plasma, Chain Fist -53 Points</div><div>- Terminator, Combi Plasma, Chain Fist -53 Points</div><div>- Terminator, Power Weapon, Storm Bolter, Cyclone Missile Launcher -63 Points</div><div> </div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">Troops</span></b></div><div>Grey Hunters - 2 x Plasma Guns - 170 Points</div><div>Grey Hunters - 2 x Plasma Guns - 170 Points</div><div>Grey Hunters - 2 x Melta Guns, Power Fist - 185 Points</div><div>Drop Pod - 35</div><div><div>Grey Hunters - 2 x Melta Guns, Power Fist - 185 Points</div><div>Drop Pod - 35</div><div><br /></div></div><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">Heavy Support </span></b></div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Las Cannon Sponsons - 105</div><div><br /></div><div> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-9057842458264059890?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Dreadnoughts - I love dreadnoughts, I own 8. I generally prefer them in a tank sniper (Las/missile) or Dakka (2 x twin autocannons) but in the next tourney I will be running them in cheap assault configurations with claws and multi meltas. What ever your need there is a dreadnought for it from Anti armour, MC, infantry its all there at a really low price.<div><br /></div><div>2. Predators - another cheap source of heavy fire power. 95 points for 10 shots at BS4 with average ST 5. </div><div><br /></div><div>3. Thunder Fire Cannon - I know People disagree with me on this one. I love them. Due to the different Ammo and long range it is never a useless unit. Air burst is the bane of gaunts and Orks, Standard rips marines to shreds, tremor is great for bikers, vehicle squads and jump infantry, Remember it only needs to hit. </div><div><br /></div><div>4. Stern Guard - I am currently running a drop pod assault group of these (10 man, Power Fist, Melta gun, 2 x combi Melta, Heavy Flamer) that works well for me. I am hoping to get a second fluffier squad together with Power Fist, 2 x heavy bolters, 3 x combi plasma as a defensive unit. </div><div><br /></div><div>5. Master of the Forge - Great idea. Tech Marine HQ. 6 dreads, conversion beamer, awesome</div><div><br /></div><div>6. Scouts - Cheap, nasty, sneaky, 100 point infiltrating power fist, 85 point hell fire shell. </div><div><br /></div><div>7. Libarian - Cheap HQ, powerful, my HQ of choice. Give terminator armor and a storm shield for bigger games. </div><div><br /></div><div>8. Vindicator - A Demolisher. 50 points cheaper than guard get it. Str10 AP 2 Large Blast. Simply amazing if left to run free</div><div><br /></div><div>9. Devestators - I love devestators. 5 man squads in games of 1250 or under, 10 man squads in 1750 or higher. 4 heavy weapons, a signum(DON"T FORGET THE SIGNUM), 6 bullet catchers</div><div><br /></div><div>10. Tactical Marines - I cannon express the awesomeness of well used tactical marines in writing. It is something that needs to be experienced. 40-60 marines working together can take down just about any army. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-5534841257904219620?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Origonally I wanted to take Guard, But they need a lot of work and I can't bring my self to take an unpainted army to a tournament, Same with Space Wolves. I would take Blood Angels but I just can't bring my self to use that Codex over the marine one and the models aren't painted. So Marines it is, Unless I get a crap ton of painting done over Christmas. <div><br /></div><div>Red Skulls Chapter - Light Infantry Force</div><div><br /></div><div>HQ</div><div>Librarian - Gate of Infinity, Avenger</div><div><br /></div><div>TROOPS</div><div>Tactical Squad - Flamer, Heavy Bolter</div><div>Rhino</div><div><br /></div><div><div>Tactical Squad - Flamer, Heavy Bolter</div><div>Rhino</div><div><br /></div><div>Tactical Squad - Flamer, Missile Launcher</div><div><br /></div><div>Tactical Squad - Flamer, Missile Launcher</div><div><br /></div><div>ELITES</div><div>Dreadnought - Multimelta, DCCW, Storm Bolter</div><div><br />Dreadnought - Multimelta, DCCW, Heavy Flamer</div><div><br /></div><div>HEAVY SUPPORT</div><div>Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Storm Bolter</div><div><br /></div><div>Whirl Wind </div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-6823571479560970611?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Little bits of wisdom imparted on me by players with much more experience.<div><br /></div><div><b>1. Know your list </b>- Know every unit. know why you have them in the army even if its just to fill up space. Know what they do, What equipement do they have? Krak grenades? Pistols? Signum? what do they do. What special rules do your units have? scout? Combat Tactics? What do those mean. Find out. Mark the pages with post it notes. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>2. Go to Ground </b>- 6+ invul is better than insta gib. I very rarely see people use this rule. Look it up, use it. It is a game winner. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Take the Time to Understand your Opponents List</b> - Work out what will hurt you (cover being ignored, AP 3 weapons, Close Combat) check you opponents list for these things, ask your opponent about them, most will be more than happy to explain what units do or at least tell you the stats. Get your opponent to identify the models that will cause you grief. If you feel particularly sneaky you can use this to pull a bluff and ask about a bunch of stuff that you don't care about to shift your opponents focus away from what you are trying to take out. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. Never Go First </b> - There is very little benefit in going first. In some cases (Dawn of War, deep strike armies, Daemons and Drop Pods to be specific, it is actually harmful to go first) The number of games I have seen won or lost by a turn 5-7 rush to contest objectives is staggering. This also allows you to react to your opponents deployment and put them at a disadvantage early on. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>5. Take Your Time</b> - Something I struggle with. I often get caught up in the moment and forget things, its easy to do. 1 tip I have heard is write down the number of units you have on your list and then count them before you pass to the next phase. Make sure you know where everything is and that it has some purpose. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>6. TANK SHOCK!!!!!</b> - Tank shock is brilliant. Especially tank shocking multiple units or with multiple units. At Battle in the Vines this year I forced an entire jet bike squad with attached HQ off the board with a tank shock from a rhino. At High Lords of Tera this year someone lost Lysander and 10 terminators the same way. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>7. Make Sure You Understand the Mission</b> - Take time to read the mission and ask any questions before you start. Discuss it with your opponent, if the missions are available early then take them to your local club and discuss with other players. Know what you are trying to do</div><div><br /></div><div><b>8.</b> <b>Set a Goal and stick to it - </b>This will depend on your mission and opponent. A full win is nice but often setting a more realistic goal is better. There are 5 objectives on the board, is it enough to hold 3 and contest the other 2? if so this is much easier than taking all 5. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>9. Know the board </b>- If possible talk to your opponent a move the terrain in a way that makes you both happy. Agree on cover values, terrain types, How many inches to move up levels etc, before you start. If you can't agree roll a die to decide it. 4+ thats impassable, other wise its just dangerous etc.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>10. Do ONE Thing and do it Well </b>- Focus your army. Pick one thing, Assault, Massed Bolter fire, Templates, CC Attack count, it doesn't matter. Pick something and then maximize it to the point were you do it better than the other guy. This is the best advice I have ever received. Although some may not agree, it has served me very well. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-4287984226784518543?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

Cheaper Units</div></b><div>When I first started 40K just over a year ago I was intrigued by the Sons of Sanguinius and proceeded to paint all my freshly bought marines blood red, quickly ordering death company and Chaplain Lemartes. Then the 5th ed Space Marine dex was released. I fell in love, forgot all about my BA's and embraced the new dex in full force. </div><div><br /></div><div>250 points for 10 assault marines is just to much make them better or drop the cost. Same goes for tactical squads. compared to the Marine dex they are just too expensive and this is my major problem with the BA dex, you spend so many points on troops its hard to cram in support. This would be fine if the troops were superior but the advantage of taking assault marines as troops does not make up for this. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>2. Plastic, Plastic, Plastic</b></div><div>Although people will disagree with me I always prefer plastic models. They are easier to customize, reuse parts, repair, I could make an entire article out of this. </div><div>Specifically I want to see the Furioso and Baal Predator. Make them plastic, drop the cost. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Beefed up Assault Squads</b></div><div>Blood Angels are the masters of assault. their Assault Marines are troops, but they cost more that 20% more than marine ones, ok fair enough they're troops, But how are they better? What reason apart from fluff do you have to take them over Tactical Marines? in Codex Space Marines Tactical Marines are never a useless unit, Bolters, Krak Grenades, free heavy and special weapons they have an answer for everything. Assault Marines however lack the same versatility. </div><div><br /></div><div>Give them special weapons, give them more options. Even the option to take bolt guns or something. Show the players what makes the blood Angels assault marines so much better. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. More Fluff</b></div><div>The 4th ed codex that you can download is almost a fluff black hole. Who are these characters, why should I care about them? Do I have take the book over to the computer and look them up on lexicanum? Who are the Blood Angels? How are they organised? How do they fight? What makes them stand out more than other codexless chapters like the Salamanders, Imperial Fists, Raven Guard and Iron Hands? </div><div><br /></div><div><b>5. Heroic Intervention</b></div><div>There is not a single rule in any dex that screams BA's more. Give this to veterans and while your at it have a long hard think about giving it to the death company and their jump pack chaplains. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>6. Better Psychic Powers. </b></div><div>BA's have 3 psychic powers which range from situational to damn near pointless.</div><div>I have been hearing whispers of good things in this department</div><div><br /></div><div><b>7. Upgrade Sprues</b></div><div>The DA's have them, the BT's have them, and they are fricken awesome. I even see people who don't play those chapters buying them. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>8. Bonuses For Playing Like a BA Commander</b></div><div>When I think assault the first thing that comes to mind is Orks, the next Nids, then Daemons, then Korne Berzerkers and so on. BA's don't really have the same weight in assault as other assault armies do. When I play BA's I want to be able to play aggressively, take the fight to the enemy with out getting wiped out. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>9. Make the Units Match the Fluff</b></div><div>BA's are a Codex Chapter that are good in assault. Great. But the units are the same as ultra marines, just you get assault marines instead of scouts as troops. Scouts infiltrate, out flank, they cause disruption amongst the enemy, assault marines charge straight in and get slaughtered. </div><div><br /></div><div>I really think that BA tactical marines need Boltgun, Bolt Pistol AND close combat weapon. I also think that assault marines need a bolt gun option. Or even better, Range 12", assault 2, bolt guns for tactical marines. Or another idea, Give jump pack troops an assault move let them jump in harass the enemy and jump out. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>10. A Compelling Reason to Take BA's over Other Space Marines</b></div><div>Give me a reason to play aggressively. Take the ideas of the space wolves and build on them. At the moment either Space Wolves or Black Templars can play aggresive games better than Blood Angels. Even basic marines can take Bike squads as troops. </div><div><br /></div><div>It may sound simple but Blood Angels need to be able to do something better than the rest. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-5645542767868932398?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

For my play style most of the time named characters are not worth their points. Each basic style of HQ is 100 points. Captains are a little over priced as most of the time there is a character for the same cost that preforms better. </i></div><div><i>If you want a captain with a power weapon or power fist, then run a Chaplain, If you have a gun line then a Master of the Forge is better. Drop pods? Then run a Librarian. The only reasons to run a captain are 1) their ability to take bikes as troops, 2) Relic Blades. This captain will be placed with a counter charge unit. </i></div><div><br /></div><div>- Relic blade - <i>Str 6 at normal init is amazing. This is by far my favorite CCW in the marine arsenal. </i></div><div>- Storm Shield - <i>Origonally slated as a storm bolter I decided to swap the shooting for more survivability. When paired with a relic blade this captain becomes a great CC asset.</i></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>TROOPS</b></span></div><div><b>Tactical Squad 1</b> - <i>I love Tactical Squads. They have an answer to any problem and are flexible enough to always be useful on the battle field. not just their heavy and special weapons but also with waves of bolter fire. Even assaults and krak grenades can turn the tide of battle. The best unit is one that is never useless and Tac Marines are the epitome of this. </i></div><div><br /></div><div>Power Fist - <i>A little over rated. Str 8 is nice but its to slow against most infantry. As for vehicles you have krak grenades any way. However it is still the best CC boost available to Tactical Marine Sgts. </i></div><div>Melta Gun - <i>These are great str 8, Assault and melta. Bang for buck they can't be beat. However they do lack range and the second shot from plasma guns is never a bad thing. </i></div><div><i>Multi Melta - Arguably the best free heavy weapon that Tactical Squads can take. Their range can be limiting but you can't argue with their defensive capabilities </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Rhino</b> - <i>People are always talking rubbish about the humble rhino, saying you should take a razor back instead. Most of the time they are right however the ability to fire out the top hatch is sometimes to good to pass up and occasionally you do need to move 10 guys around. </i></div><div><br /></div><div>-2nd Storm Bolter - <i>The ability to move 6" fire 2 storm bolters and 2 bolt guns from the hatch is priceless. 6-8 bolt shots or even just 2 storm bolters to back up disembarking marines. It turns the rhino from a rolling coffin into something that can actually kill something occasionally. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Tactical Squad 2 </b></div><div>- Melta Gun</div><div>- Multi Melta</div><div><br /></div><div>Rhino</div><div>- 2nd Storm Bolter</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Tactical Squad 3 </b></div><div>- Plasma Gun -<i> I love plasma. With an expected 12-15 MEQ armies including at least one Grey Knight Army and 1 Plague Marine Army these will be invaluable. Plasma guns are never useless. They can take out marines, terminators, even light vehicles, hell I've shot down everything from hive tyrants to Valkyrie to Scouts with them. </i></div><div>- Plasma Cannon -<i> I wish I could fit more but I just can't justify them. The plasma cannon is in response to the Plague marine list I know is coming in adition to the many MEQ and several terminator based armies that will be there. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Razor Back</b> - <i>Not my usual choice but I decided to try one out. It seems to suit y gun line approach.</i></div><div>- Storm Bolter - <i>following the theme of squeeze in as many shots as possible. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Tactical Squad 4 </b></div><div>- Plasma Gun</div><div>- Las Cannon -<i> I see las cannons as more suitable on dreads and devestator squads however I needed a troop choice and some long range anti tank. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>ELITES</b></span></div><div><b>Dreadnought</b> - <i>Dreadnoughts are my favorite marine unit. I don't feel a marine list is complete with out at least one. either having a mobile gun platform or as a fearsome assault unit once again this never a useless option.</i></div><div>- 2 x twin-linked auto-cannon - <i>I put this in to help against Monstrous Creatures. 4 str 7 hits can't be a bad thing. Originally I was going to try a dreadnought with an assault canon but decided the 48" range and twin linked would be better. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Dreadnought</b></div><div>- Twin Linked Las Cannon - <i>This is a great weapon. However a little weak on its own</i></div><div>- Missile Launcher -<i>This compliments the las cannon exceptionally well. It just gives that little extra punch that makes sure that round of shooting is wasted. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>HEAVY SUPPORT</b></span></div><div><b>Thunder Fire Cannon</b> - <i>This is fast becoming a unit I never leave home without. With a good field of fire this is can turn the tide of battle. This is generally for horde control but does surprisingly well against almost anything. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Predator </b>- <i>I am using configuration as more MC and anti horde power. Although a whirlwind or vindicator do generally have more power they still only generate 1 shot and don't really suit were I'm going with this list. </i></div><div>- Heavy Bolters Sponsons</div><div>- Storm Bolter</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8632597891006414709-5620896785118269852?l=miscmarine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Misc.

I originally put a vindicator and plasma cannon dread into the army as a knee jerk reaction to a plague marine list.

I managed to get my list table-able on the weekend. I'd like to do more work on the tanks then varnish them and call them finished but the army is at a point where I can field it and get a reasonable score. I've also decided to rename my exorcists with a DIY chapter. <div><br /></div><div>THE RED SKULLS<div><br /></div><div>Originator - Ultra Marines </div><div>Home World - Golgotha</div><div>Chapter Master - Augustus Grant</div><div>Specialties - Trench Warfare, Librarians, Salvaging Tech</div><div><br /></div><div>The red skulls were almost destroyed shortly after their creation. Since then they have survived by salvaging weapons from battle fields and repairing them. Most of their remaining space marines fill the second company and vital command positions. They are cautious, chosing to ware down an enemy while minimizing casualties, some see this as cowardice, they see it as survival. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Strength -</b> Weakened. Rebuilding after disastrous campaign against a Hive Fleet</div><div><br /></div><div>High Command - Chapter Master, 5 Honour Guard, Chief Librarian, Master of the Forge, Various Officers and Advisors (master of the Fleet, Master of the Arsenal, etc)</div><div><br /></div><div>1st Company - Captain, Chaplain, 2 Librarians 10 Assault Terminators, 20 Terminators, 20 Stern Guard, 2 Dreadnoughts, 1 Drop pod, 1 Land Raider, 1 Land Raider Redeemer</div><div><br /></div><div>2nd Company - Captain, Librarian, Chaplain, Command Squad, 2 Rhinos, 2 Dreadnoughts, 60 Tactical Marines, 20 Assault marines, 20 Devastators</div><div><br /></div><div>10th Company - Captain, 28 Scouts</div><div><br /></div><div>Armoury - 1 Predator, 2 Dreadnoughts, 2 Vindicators, Whirl Wind, Thunder Fire Cannon</div><div><br /></div><div>______________________</div><div>My thinking for this list revolved around the question: "What do marines do best?". The answer Attrition. Dealing damage with out taking casualties. So I decided on a mostly static force with plenty of shots and armor</div><div><br /></div><div>______________________</div><div>Coastal assault Army list 1250 Points </div><div>Red Skulls Siege Force</div><div><br /></div><div><b>HQ</b></div><div>Chapter Master - Relic Blade, Storm Bolter - <i>Not my usual choice in HQ. The storm bolter was obvious the orbital bombardment is a little hit and miss but I'm hoping that it can give me a little extra bang when I need it. </i></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Troops</b></div><div>Tactical Squad - Melta Gun, Multi Melta - <i>Pretty standard short range, high impact anti tank unit. </i></div><div>Rhino - 2 x Storm Bolter - <i>Move 6 fire 2 storm bolters and 2 boltguns. 6-8 shots is not bad for a rhino. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>Tactical Squad - Plasma Gun, Plasma Cannon - <i>Marine hunters. MEQ ussually makes the bulk of any tourney. I see them playing a big role. I also know there will be at least one plague marine list and 1 terminator heavy BT list, this unit should help slow them down.</i></div><div>Razor Back - Twin Linked Heavy Bolter, Storm Bolter - <i>Again the extra bolt rounds. in practice games when paired with the rhino this has been great for shifting troops of objectives. </i></div><div><br /></div><div>Tactical Squad - Plasma Gun, Lascannon - <i>Classic anti tank and anti FNP/MEQ/Terminator. This can take on any unit and do damage at range. </i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div><b>Elites</b></div><div>Dreadnought - Twin Linked Lascannon, Missile Launcher - <i>I call this the Tank Sniper config. It is one of the best anti armor combos out there. It has 2 decent anti armor weapons and it can move 6 and fire both. I usually run them in pairs but decided to try something different this time out</
