pretre Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 After Westrider's comments about grav, I counted. Current List: 2+ - 4 3+ - 13 4+ - 12 If I swap a TWC (dropping to 5) for the WGBL to upgrade to WL, I get to 4/12/12. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I made a whole army of formations with no detachments. http://www.ordofanaticus.com/index.php?/topic/25214-2k-ravenguard-list-7th-edition/?p=305038 A formation is a detachment. Read the BRB. Not sure on the SM codex, but in the DA one, I don't think the 10th company support is a formation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Back on topic, and to try to make it less one-note and potentially more competitive... I'm thinking about a mixed list with Drop Pods to get some ob-sec on the board. I'd have to lose the War Council and cut some other stuff.

pretre Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Something like this: CotGW: WGBL with PF/SS, TWM, Runic - 165 Iron Priest with TWM and Cyberwolves x4 - 165 Iron Priest with TWM and Cyberwolves x4 - 165 5 TWC with WC/SS, SS/CCW x2, BP/CCW, PF/BP - 290 CAD: Rune Priest with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 105 5 BC with Flamer in Drop Pod - 100 5 BC with Flamer in Drop Pod - 100 5 Grey Hunters with Plasma, Pack Leader with Combi, 3 CCW, Drop Pod - 146 5 Grey Hunters with Melta, Pack Leader with Combi/MB, Drop Pod - 140 5 Grey Hunters with Melta, Pack Leader with Combi/MB, 2 CCW, Drop Pod - 144 Librarius: Librarian with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 110 Librarian with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 110 Librarian with Force Sword, ML2, Bike - 110 1850 Casting dice are many fewer (8) and only six chances at Invis. Reroll is lost as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 That list has the advantage of having only four models unpainted (the four bike models). Oh wait, the wolves. Okay, it isn't that much better for painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Also pondering ditching the Runic for two Pack Leaders (for the Blood Claws) and another MB for the Plasma GH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Okay, a bit similar: CotGW: WGBL with PF/SS, TWM - 140 Iron Priest with TWM and Cyberwolves x4 - 165 Iron Priest with TWM and Cyberwolves x4 - 165 Iron Priest with TWM and Cyberwolves x4 - 165 6 TWC with WC/SS, SS/CCW x2, BP/CCW, PF/BP - 330 CAD: Rune Priest with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 105 5 BC with Flamer in Drop Pod - 100 5 BC with Flamer in Drop Pod - 100 5 Grey Hunters with Melta, Pack Leader with Combi/MB, Drop Pod - 140 Librarius: Librarian with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 110 Librarian with Force Axe, ML2, Bike - 110 Librarian with Force Sword, ML2, Bike - 110 Librarian with Force Staff/Hammer, ML2, Bike - 110 1850 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Gives me a 3/11/12 ratio of armor saves, which is nice for grav. Drops are basically just objective. They haven't been doing awesome for me recently, so it is fine. Gets me 8 chances at invis and 2 at endurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDubstep Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 I like it alot and I'm going to steal your psychic powers idea. I like its simplicity. Here's what I'm thinking about for the Guardian Cup if I can get 5 more T-Wolves done. What do you guys think? 1 Wolf Lord on T-Wolf with Claw/Hammer Runic 2+/4++ 1 Wolf Priest on Bike 2x Iron Priests on Wolves 6x T-Wolves with 1 Wolf Claw, 1 Powerfist and the rest with shields/chainswords 5x T-Wolves with 1 Powerfist, rest with shields/chainswords LIB Conclave all ML2 1 with bike/axe 1 with Jumppack/sword 1 with Jumppack/stave Blood Angels CAD 2x Sang priests on bikes 5x scouts cc weapon/BPs 5x scouts sniper rifles/camo cloaks Thoughts?

Gets you natural FNP on the unit with the Sang Priests and two units of TWC. Looks fun. We need to play. It'll be a slugfest in the middle. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 One bike left to paint and base! Woo. Updated the sheet to include the disciplines so I can save some time rolling. TheGreatHunt.pdf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I am significantly worried about not getting first turn, but I guess I'll go with it. One thing I was thinking, if I get second turn, is that I can full reserve. Bring in the two pods and hide them bottom of 1. They probably die top of turn 2. I then have two rolls to not lose on bottom of turn 2 (third pod and the big blob). Same thing turn 3. But now that you cast after movement, I can still roll on and then invis depending on my opponent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted August 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 I did have a turn one brawl with bully boys in game 2. I was a bit tipsy and it was hilarious. Like 2700 point close combat or something like that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Blood Angels CAD 2x Sang priests on bikes 5x scouts cc weapon/BPs 5x scouts sniper rifles/camo cloaks Thoughts? BA scouts are really lacking now that the other scouts were updated. BA tactical squad is awesome. Stock tactical squad with a heavy flamer and furious charge is not lacking. The BA Combined Arms Detachment is really lacking unless you are just in dire need of objective secured units. Depending on your needs, the various BA strike force detachments can be really awesome. They also have a very wide selection of formations, some of which are potent, but most of which are just nice for the lack of other required models. I will also note that there is a legal "unique" troops Death Company and troops Death Company Dreadnought, which can be very useful for filling required slots without buying useless models. That would be "raphen's death company" and "Cassor the damned". Both are more spendy than scouts, but also much more useful than BS3 scouts.

pretre Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Okay, so the event: - I was totally wrong about FNP. For some reason, and I thought I confirmed with someone else, that FNP worked against D in ITC. This is not true. First game, D-Scythes wrecked me because of this. This was against Jack's Scatter bikes, WK and two DS Wraithguard with Scythes. Ouchy. 6 to 5, his win. - Second game, played against Dan's bully boys. Huge CC on turn one (like 2700 points) and I pulled out the win at the end. - Third Game, played Joel's Daemonkin formation with extra attacks everytime something dies. Yeah, I totally underestimated his soulgrinders, split my Ironpriests off for a quick kill on two different soul grinders. Yeah... That didn't work out so well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
