Thanks for the comments.

I forgot to take pictures... should have really.. and normally do.

I was fortunate with terrain placement really. We were using a modified cities board, so there were...

Buddy and I got together last night for a game. Had a blast. We played an 1850 match up.

I'll start with the armies, and then move into the match.

Except that 30 boys don't fit in any vehicle. The most you'll fit is 20 in a battlewagon or 12 in a truck. The difference between 60 and 80 attacks is not as huge although still statistically...

For as long as I can remember I've been a Codex Marine player.

We aren't the best at much, but we can do a bit of everything. Where I'm finding this falls flat on it's face is in dealing with the...

Soooo... I played my Vect list against my friend's Blood Angel list that came in 10th at the biggest tournament in Canada... Started off well. Even in a Night Fight mission I managed to sight his...

I'd drop the Helliarch and stunclaw for big savings.

But against heavy Mech I think you need more Anti Tank.

I played recently against my buddy's blood angels.

He fielded approximately:

I'd get rid of the stunclaw on the helliarch. The idea is nice... being able to pull out an IC in combat, but that Helliarch is only S4 with the claw. 5 on the charge, but when you pull him out of...

This list is what many would probably think of as HQ heavy. But it still seems quite effective for it's points cost.

Asdrubael Vect - 240

I just realized that both the new lists are 40 points off because on my spreadsheet I forgot to remove the command squad razorback... So I played 40 points under my opponent last night... Might not...

Well I played my first game with the Chaplain list tonight.

1850 Spearhead Seize Ground 5 Objectives.

I won't do the full batrep right now, as it's late... but...

No.

The Basic structure is: One player for each legion. 1000 points per army. Every model must be modified to be heresy era appropriate.

From reading the HH novels you can make similar...

Sorry I meant Autocannons....

And yeah I know the Razorback is Post-Heresy. Me and one of the campaign organizers are modifying them so they are more compliant model wise.

Here is the Jump Pack Chaplain version:

From what I've read, the Hammers were rare-ER than they are today but did obviously - Dorn being a prime example.

I don't think I'll be able to get away with the LC/TLPC variant as much as I'd...

Some of your suggestions I really like, others not so much.

I'm not a fan of MM/HF Speeders. I find they do in fact perform ok, but they die so damned fast... I like the fact that with the TML/HB...

So I've pulled out my old marines and I'm retooling what was a more punchy list into a gunline style army.

This is what I've come up with thus far. I'm looking for comments and critique to make it...

I'm wondering if they FAQ the fact that you can't fire all 3 lances while moving.

I tend to disagree about the anti-armor in the list... My 1000 point list has 11 dark lances, 2 heat lances and 5 splinter cannons.

I've seen too many dark lances wiff on a mech heavy list at even...

That one is actually a heat lance. I made the heat lance by adding a blast pistol end to the splinter rifle after chopping the very end off.

They will have 2x heat lances and 3 carbines in the...

LoL I am not.

Despite the niggling fear I have, I'll risk saying that I'm from Canada and therefor uninterested in your American style pigskin tossing and much prefer other activities such as...

So I finished making my scourges last night, with the exception of 2 missing pieces to go on their backs (I think they were originally grenade launchers) that I'll be acquiring from a friend who has...

I like the idea in principle but I do not for a second believe that 12 lances at 1850 is enough anti tank.

I put 12 in my 1000 pt list because mech lists were omgwtfbbqstomping DE here.

9 of...

I retrimmed the bases with a darker colour and I think they look better now.

I've also finished another 3 warriors.


Sorry for the crappy pictures from my kitchen :P my camera is currently...

Here's my Warrior now with a base.

Yeah he is 4+/2++ but that 2++ goes away on a 1. IF you can hit him enough, and I do want to stress IF, then lots of high strength dice is the way to kill him. Although to be perfectly honest, lots...
