Wargear; Storm Shield, Artificer Armor, Valour's Edge (AP2 power sword for those non-BA players). Will take digital weapons if I have the points, giving him an overall cost of 145-155. The BA captain entry in the new codex is lightyears beyond the old codex. Might not be a super turbo killy street fighter, but nonetheless still very psyched. I mean, even artificer armor is a totally foreign concept to me...steveNspacehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01652647952921962213noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392251279868299955.post-54056861743765531532015-01-26T09:16:00.001-08:002015-01-26T09:16:22.454-08:00Blood Angels 7th edition codex first impressionsMy first honest reaction to the new BA codex was utter sadness and frustration.<br />
<br />
The cynic in me looked at the changes of tactical marines (and scouts) as the only troops choices as a clear money grab by GW to push their new BA tactical marine box set. GW full and well knows that many 5th Ed BA players competitively stacked their lists with the former Assault Marines as troops, whether in a jump packing army or mechanized list.<br />
<br />
However, this change was only the tip of the iceberg for me. Baal Predators moved to Heavy. Land Raiders moved from Dedicated Transports to Heavy for all but terminators. Sanguinary Priests are now HQ, and can no longer take Terminator armor (that makes my 2 sanguinary priests in Terminator armor unplayable).<br />
<br />
This completely screwed over my Lamenters army, which now has no troops choices to field nor ability to use my Sanguinary Priests.<br />
<br />
It also crushed my Blood Dragons army, which cannot field half the tanks it used to. With 2 vindicators, predator destructor, 2 baal predators, and land raider redeemer all competing for the 3 heavy support slots. The icing on the cake; my 4x plasma gun honor guard squad is no longer legitimate.<br />
<br />
I was furious.<br />
<br />
But then after giving it a few weeks to think about, I have to say I do enjoy this new codex even if GW was indeed going for a money grab to push new models.<br />
<br />
...Because the new codex is genuinely back to BA's core roots. Baal Predators <i>used </i>to be heavy support. Rhino wall rushes with Tactical marines <i>used</i> to be BA's bread and butter. And now they are once more.<br />
<br />
I think in terms of power, the codex is spot on. Yes I'm upset I have less tanks to field for my Blood Dragons, and will have to paint up new tactical marines for my Lamenters, but when I update my armies I'll be happy.<br />
<br />
Because we're getting <b>140 point</b> (bare bones) 10 man marine squads with free furious charge, and a free +1 initiative for following the Baal detachment org. 185 points with the fast rhino included. This is a serious improvement, as the same unit would have costed 35 more points in the 5th ed codex and without the free abilities to boot. Other down-costed, mainstay units: predators, baal predators (5 point storm bolters anyone?)... Cheaper librarians, vastly improved captains. Valours edge and artificer armor? Hell to the yes. It goes on and on.<br />
<br />
So for all the doom and gloom that came with the new codex, I am actually excited to tweak my armies for the new codex and get BA on the table again. It's like classic blood angels but on steroids. <br />

Inspired by the SW TCG, (canonized from ROTJ). Space blue scheme with jet black paneling, instead of prepaint light grey scheme with very dark grey paneling.<br />

I always told myself I was going to get into this game I'd have to put my own flavor into my fleets. Stock ships simply won't do! Not that there's anything wrong with X-Wing prepaints, they're quite excellent.<br />

<br />I never expected things like Shadowswords to be legal in standard games of Warhammer 40K, but apparently that is now the case. I'm not saying they're too good or anything - actually I think it's pretty awesome, the problem is I am late to the bandwagon of super-heavies. Mega-tanks and walkers aren't even the issue though - well placed Terminators can usually take care of them. It's the rampant amount of Flying vehicles in 7th edition that is really giving me trouble. My army has no anti-air weapons at all, and when I'm almost guaranteed to be facing off against some flyers every match - <b><i>something's gotta give.</i></b><br /><br />The first thing that came to mind was my Stormraven. But just as I was placing my army case down on the floor... one model I own caught the corner of my eye as I spotted on the bottom shelf of my desk.<br />
<br />
BEHOLD!<br />

I was paired with a random partner who turned out to be pretty cool. He was playing Tyranids. Even though we only managed 1-win on our record, I'm not sure if that's really indicitive of our performance. One of the other matches would have definitely been in our favor had the time not elapsed before we had a chance to finish the bottom of turn 4 (we went second, so that was pretty lame). The other game we faced 2 knight titans, pylon shield fortification things, basically one of the most cheesiest doubles lists I've ever seen. The guys playing the lists were nice though, and I understand it is a tournament so people are allowed to bring whatever the rules allow.<br />
<br />
Here are some pics. Lots of flyers and big scary crap on almost every table. I am getting a much better grasp on the rules though. I think after a few more games I might be able to get my mojo back.<br />

<br />
After not playing any 40K for quite a long time, I figured the advent of 7th edition would be a good time to materialize into realspace once again and crush the enemies of mankind.<br />
<br />
I liked 6th quite a bit, but I only played it at the very beginning. Maybe a dozen games or so. Real life made me have to take a step back (moving to a new city, new job, starting my life in the real world). After more than a year of no Warhammer in my life, I had a craving that could not be controlled. I need my GW toy soldiers! The emperor commands me.<br />
<br />
Anyways, bought the new rulebook a few days ago, and went down to Dragon's Lair in Austin last night for my initiation into the Thursday night casual play scene.<br />
<br />
The game seems so foreign to me. I saw so many bizarre models. There was a time in 5th edition, when I was heavily involved in the competitive scene, where I could have recited the stat-line of any unit in the game from memory. Now I cannot even name half the models on the tables, let alone what they do, or if it's a creature or a vehicle.<br />
<br />
Riptides, Helldrakes, Necron ring-pop fortress city with cthulu arms. Eldar wraith knights. This is not the 40K I remember, but that's okay. I still had fun.<br />
<br />
Played 2 matches (using 7th rules), 1 at 1250 points vs Necrons and 1 at 1500 pts vs Space Wolves. Both were pretty crushing defeats for the Lamenters, but I was putting myself in unfavorable situations on purpose in order to put myself in a position to learn the rules better. I think the 6th edition competitiveness of my Lamenters is mostly gone. BA psykers and the way psychic powers themselves work has been totally changed. Almost everyone I saw playing was using flyers, my armies have no AA (What's this skyfire shenanigans?).<br />

So what is the next step? Tournament on Sunday. My skills might be as rusty as a total newbie, my armies may be <i>so last year</i>, but as a faithful servant of the imperium I must put these xenos pretenders to the sword - or die with honor.<br />

A different GK player than yesterday, but a somewhat similar list. Lots of foot PAGK with psycannons. This army however had 2x psyrifle dreads and a LRC, with a unit of standard terminators.<br />
<br />
Battle deployment was the diagonal one again. Still can't remember what it's called. Mission was big guns never tire w/ 4 objectives. But do I really care what the mission is? Not particularly. With 2x five man scoring units, <em>my objective</em> is to utterly destroy my opponent.<br />
<br />
Grey Knights had first turn and deployed first, but for the first time ever I seized the initiative! Aww yeah. Not only that, but first turn was night fight. ME GUSTA. That right there really sealed the game in my favor.<br />
<br />

Starting deployment. As usual, termies mounted up & assault squads behind.<br />
<br />
<br />

End of turn 1. LRC had shield from librarian, Baal was smoked. With night fight, most of my units were receiving 4+ covers from his shooting, which only managed to knock off a couple hull points from glancing hits spread between my tanks.<br />
<br />
<br />

End of my turn 2. By now, the battle was basically won. His LRC had 1 hull point left and was immobilized. By the end of turn 3, nearly every grey knight model was off the board.<br />
<br />
On turn 4 he was officially tabled. Good game and fun opponent. I am really pumped that the Lamenters are kicking ass in 6th. My hobby army just became my competitive army overnight.<br />

<br />
First match was 1850 points, basically I used my 1750 list below, dropped some sergeant wargear, dropped the baal pred, and added 5x more terminators with a CML. <br />
<br />
First opponent was foot-based GK with Draigo and 2 units of paladins. Lots and lots of psycannons, I want to say at least around fifteen. <br />
<br />
Game type was 4 objectives with diagonal deployment. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
I had first turn, combat squadded my 10 man terminators and put 5 in the LR with the other 5 on foot (with both CMLs). Assault marine squads hide behind LRs. Moved 18" with both raiders on turn 1.<br />
<br />
His first turn, dropped my LRC to 1 hullpoint from tons of glances with all his psycannon shooting. He tried to assault my LRC with his draigo+paladin squad but failed to do any damage. <br />
<br />
My next turn, I tank shocked, dumped all my models, and assaulted. There was some shooting here and there, but the focus was the assault. In 2 turns of assault I wiped draigo and his unit of paladins for the loss of 1x TH/SS and my captain (he got insta-killed by draigo when I failed my look out sir).<br />
<br />
By turn 5, I had moved on and wiped his other paladin squad with my deathstar, and my opponent surrendered. A very solid victory with minimal casualties, not a common achievement for the lamenters. My LRC did get destroyed, but the other LR remained untouched even after repeated bombardment by psycannons. I think my prediction of raiders still being viable for 6th was right.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Second game was vs. orks. Horde army with 130+ models led by ghazkull. Same mission, 4 objectives, but with pitched battle deployment. Unfortunately we didn't have time to finish our game as the store was closing. We made it to the end of turn 4, and things could have gone either way. Basically I spent the entire first 3 turns turtling and doing as much shooting as possible, then on turn 4 I disgorged both LR payloads into the heart of the horde and did a lot of damage. Can't say if I would have been overwhelmed or not. It was close.<br />

General strategy is to have all termies mounted up (Capt, Libby & Priest go in LRC) with Jump marines moving up behind the land raiders. <br />
<br />
LRC goes in front, moves flat out first turn for 18" total while Lib casts shield (can I still do that?) giving it a 5+. I know that there isn't a 6" bubble around the vehicle anymore though, but that's okay. Standard LR will move 12" and stay behind LRC to also grant it a cover save, machine spiriting 1 las somewhere.<br />
<br />
Baal will either outflank or stay close to deathstar, depending on opponent, mission, whatever. I'm not too concerned, it's almost always worth its points no matter how I play it. There are 2 reasons for the stormbolter upgrade: #1, it essentially gives me a 50% save vs. a weapon destroyed, #2, I can always fire it full BS whenever I'd be firing the flamestorm anyway.<br />
<br />
I am not a fan of throwing in the extra crap (Infernus pistols particularly) on the Assault squads, but I had extra points and didn't know what to do with them. Might give extra armor to the LRs instead. <br />
<br />
Obviously, this list is focused on getting the mega deathstar unit into melee (Furious charge, FNP, preferred enemy, with everyone but the priest toting 3++.). The standard LR and termies are there for backup. <br />
<br />
Like always I am open to critique here. I realize a few things are not exactly competitive, like the Captain. I just like the model too much not to use him.<br />

So I finished painting my new captain for my Lamenters last night and thought I would post up some pics. This is a converted FW Asterion Moloc model. All the Minotaurs iconography has been removed, and I added some blood angels bits on him. Instead of using the power spear he comes with I opted for a lightning claw. This is primarily for gameplay purpose but also I have a small preference to the overall look of the lightning claw. Seems a little meaner. <br />
<br />
I suppose it's a bit ironic that Asterion Moloc's chapter, the Minotaurs, are responsible for defeating the Lamenters in the Badab war and now I'm using his model as my commander. <br />
<br />
This is my first real attempt at NMM painting. I am pretty happy with the results.<br />

FOR THE EMPEROR!steveNspacehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01652647952921962213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392251279868299955.post-62933840014937170162012-07-01T08:12:00.002-07:002012-07-01T08:12:25.559-07:00My opinion on 6thFirst I'll say I won't bother going over all the rules changes. There are plenty of places on the net where to find out about that. This is post is basically going to say what I think of 6th.<br />
<br />
I don't know where to start honestly. Overall, I think the new rules are excellent. Moving is basically the same... but as far as shooting goes; wound allocation, viable targets, focusing fire. All that stuff is great. The new assault rules are good too. I like the Look Out Sir Rules! and character challenges. <br />
<br />
My only two things I had a problem with initially are pre-measuring being in (as judging distances was a learned skill) and random charge lengths. I am going to <i>try</i> and reserve judgment on both of those, as all the other rules are very cool.<br />
<br />
New vehicle damage is awesome (Let me just say necron gauss weapons are KING once again) and makes sense, I like the passive nerf to krak missiles (and all AT weapons AP3 or worse, I'm looking at you psyrifle spam) and vehicle spammy lists in general thanks to the hullpoint system. Don't call me biased! - this is coming from a dude whose biggest army is mech angels. <br />
<br />
I still have to look over the psychic powers more, but I like the different mastery levels having different shut-down capability, with even basic troops being able to shut-down on a 6. New missions are great, new cover system is great. Really, 6th edition, overall, is a major improvement. I am so glad that all the doomsday sayers were wrong. And if this is just Fantasy rules in space as some have been saying (I don't play WHFB nor know the rules), I could care less, because it's AWESOME.<br />
<br />
Observations... 2+ armor saves are pretty dominant now with most specialist melee weapons being AP3. This also means regular terminators are going to be back in the groove, even though I've been running them throughout 5th. Calling it right now, Plasma guns and Lascannons are back for marines and Necrons just got a serious bump in army power. I'd expect to see them as top contenders at tournaments now, like Wolves and GK used to be.<br />

In my case I had to start a new project if I wanted to participate, as my Blood Angels armies are done and the DE are nearly finished. <br />
<br />
The force I am starting with is looking like this:<br />

I wonder what tactics I could possibly be using :P <br />
<br />
Eldar were one of my first armies back when I was younger, around 13 years old. I played Alaitoc and I have a bunch of old rangers to show for it.<br />
<br />
By the way, yes, this is the <u>first time</u> I am ever fielding a special character. I have my reasons, so back off.<br />
<br />
Lack of updates here can be attributed to SWTOR. (Powertech, yo).<br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">A few weeks ago I finally made the choice on what heavy support units to take for my WIP dark eldar army. This choice actually took more consideration than my previous armies, as the selection would determine what kind of list I was going to create. I narrowed my options down to the talos/cronos or razorwings. Talos and cronos would make me shift my army into a WWP themed (and heavy emphasis on CQC) list, where the razorwings would solidify the army as a shooty vehicle-heavy list. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I went for razorwings. I thought the model was awesome (so much cooler once you see it in person, looks like a FW kit) and I prefer the playstyle of using fast vehicles; especially with the aerial assault rule. In the army I will be running them almost naked - just with an obligatory flickerfield upgrade making them 155 points a piece. No splinter cannon upgrade, no weapon swap or missile upgrades. </div><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Most razorwings I've seen built are running disintigrators with the splinter cannon for maximum anti-infantry capability. From my couple of games running the razorwings this past week vs. marines, the monoscythe missiles alone usually kill an average of 6-8 (per plane) shooting all 4 missiles. The rest can be finished off by the dark lances or a venom. Taking dark lances lets me use them as anti-tank for the rest of the game (or rather start of the game if I'm fighting mech opponent). If there is one thing you should have learned by now playing 5th Ed (at least in a competitive environment); don't bother with units with no anti-vehicle capability. Never in this state of the game will I take a disintigrator cannon over a dark lance. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Why no ravagers? Well, for a few reasons. I really do agree that ravagers, point for point, are the best buy DE can get for heavy support. You can <em>never</em> have too many lances with dark eldar, that is for sure. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Advantages of the razorwing? What do you get for +40 points over a ravager?</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">-Not open topped, but -1 AV (equal trade IMO)</div>-36" flatout instead of 24" (great for end-game contesting but not practical your razorwings will be around)<br />
-4 monoscyhe missiles instead of 1 lance. This is where the point cost is coming from. Why is this a big deal? Lots of criticism for the razorwing but has anyone ever played vs. DE before? What's the first unit you always go for? Ravagers, yes. Soft targets with a lot of firepower. Same with the razorwing. What's the difference? A razorwing dumps its load in one turn, a ravager will get 3 lance shots off and be stunlocked or killed immediately. Perhaps I am trying to find excuses to take razorwings. Howabout the model is bitchin'.steveNspacehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01652647952921962213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392251279868299955.post-87152030908542123692011-11-19T17:01:00.000-08:002011-11-19T17:08:58.562-08:00Tournament resultsToday's tournament is over and unfortunately I did not place. Some poor tactics and horrible dice rolls. Normally I don't like to blame bad dice, you win some you lose some after all. But today was the certainly the worst luck I have had in my 40k career. Some highlights include rolling snake-eyes on 2 saves for 2 remaining hammernators that need to kill a measly 5 man group of necron immortals... Land Raider *exploding* immediately 2 of 3 games with the first penetrating hit scored... Not passing a single cover save against Dark Eldar lances... Missing 3 of 3 direly needed melta shots in one round of combat. Cyclone missile launchers missing all but one shot and then rolling a one to wound. I could go on here but you get the idea.<br />
<br />
Game 1 I actually managed to just barely win vs. Dark Eldar. Played another Dark Eldar army round 2 and I got tabled (lots of bad rolls in this one). 3rd and final game was against Necrons and I lost that as well. It was not all because of dice though and it never is. I made mistakes in both gameplay and list building. With the list I was using I needed to be more aggressive and deep strike with everything where instead I was mostly walking-on from reserve, too afraid of a mishap. I regret not taking the stormraven over the land raider. I needed mobility not armor, the land raider (being my only transport) blowing up as soon as it hit the table didn't help me out much. <br />

No more ranting excuses, here are pictures from the tourney:<br />

Got some bits in from the warstore this afternoon to whip up these 2 guys real fast for a tournament. The painting style was an experiment but I think it came out pretty decently (process went like; basecoat white, 2 blue washes, white drybrushing and brown wear, devlan mud wash, damage etc). aka quite simple to paint - how I like it. <br />

Sanguinary priests have kinda been the missing link of my Lamenters army for quite some time. I have always had the intention of getting a few and now I am pumped to get these gentlemen on the table. FNP is really going to help my lack of ability to roll 2+ armor saves. <br />
<br />
Did I mention my hammernators are finally done too? :)<br />

As I have mentioned before, I'm not a fan of named characters at all. Counts-as would be a little more bearable, but if I fielded one I would lose the immersion of uniqueness to my armies. Anyways, archons basically do what captains do for my two blood angels armies - they're not your typical support HQ acting as a force multiplier, instead they're simply here to add killing ability and nothing more. While the SM captain often falls short of my expectations, the archon does not.<br />

<br />
But what wargear do you take? My first archon was running the straight-out-of-blister soul trap / huskblade combo. It's actually quite entertaining to use this loadout, and I usually kill an IC every single game with this dude. But what about duality? He falls a bit short when I'm tarpitted by mobs and the huskblade bonus is moot, and has no capability against vehicles unless I give him haywire grenades which require closing distance... Not always possible.<br />

I wanted to paint a new commander like boba fett because I am running with a star wars jabba's palace theme. This also gave me an excuse to go for a totally different wargear setup. Blaster, djin blade and phantasm grenade launcher. The latter was pretty much an oversight on my first archon - I feel like this upgrade should always be taken, especially when he's rollin with the Incubi. Blaster makes use of his BS 7, and the djin blade is basically a sooped up power weapon in my mind. Not convinced it was the smarter choice over an agonizer... Only time will tell. Shadowfield for both of them I think. Clone field has been fun but gets shredded if your opponent catches you in the open for one round of shooting.<br />

The venoms hit so hard and I don't feel like I am wasting points on Troop selection. The dark powers have favored my first archon- I hope boba fett is up to the challenge. Probably going to go for 3 Talos as heavy support and get a raider-borne haemonculus / wrack retinue to cast off a portal. <br />
