Psilence Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 My grey Knights would like a word with you sir. ;) I always liked going to the large events. You see a ton of cool armies and meet (for the most part) lots of cool folks. Take some pics :) Also, eat at STK. It's in the cosmopolitan. Literally the best steak I've had. Ever.

von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 So Ive been building a few new things since TSHFT and have changed a couple things and I really like the changes. I have added a Sicaran tank, an Acheron Knight, and the Blizzard-Dread in a FW drop pod. It's pretty beastly and after TSHFT I felt like I needed some bigger additions. I have kept 9 TWC and changed the Stormwolfs to just a Stormfang. Took out any troop choice to make points for the FW stuff but it has been for the best. Now to get into Guardian for more practice since the league won't allow FW ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Stormfang over stormwolf? Why? Isn't the fang more expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainA Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 If you need a game, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 It's like 10 points more but it gives me the bigger pie plate option and Lance which can be needed. Only thing I'm losing is twin linked since I'm not using the transport side of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I'll let you know soon Captain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I don't think I've ever been in a situation where I really wanted the Large Blast or the Lance. And the turret fire arc on the 'Wolf can be a huge advantage, especially with PotMS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 100% agree with Westrider. You get TL everything on the Wolf and the turret is awesome. I like putting a cheap buff squad in it to help everyone else (Ulrik, GH with Banner, Culexus). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 The fire arc is a huge advantage. Though at LVO, TSHFT, and anything else ITC you see more FW with AV 13 and above or more multi wound people. This is what I've experienced so far.

von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Hmmm... the assassin. That's an interesting thought.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I agree, but firing arcs are one of the major weaknesses of flyers. Mitigating that is huge. Either way you go, I'm sure it will be fine, I'm just hugely disappointed in the Fang vs the Wolf. The wolf is just better in almost everyway.

von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 The centstar is a great example for the large blast, normally 5 or 6 larger models and an increase in probability taking it out compared to the smaller blast to take it out.

pretre Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 The centstar is a great example for the large blast, normally 5 or 6 larger models and an increase is possibly compared to the smaller blast to take it out. True. I just don't think it is worth it just for the large blast/lance. You have to pay for the Lascannons and you lose the arc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von hammer Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I hear ya on that. I'll try them both against Captain A here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psilence Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Good luck in Vegas this weekend! Everything ready? Doing anything else while there? (Shows/ect) Go get a steak at STK in the Cosmo. Epic. Keep us posted, and have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von hammer Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Just finished basing the last fenrisian wolves, dread, and Arjac (for the highlander event Sunday). Everything is packed up and ready to go. Can't wait!!! We have the Bellagio's buffet, wax museum, Ferris wheel thing with bar, pub crawl, cirque de solile Ka, and whatever else the Mrs. wants to do. I will mention STK though cuz that sounds good! Thanks to everyone who helped me on this journey and I will not forget the hours spent putting this together! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
