WestRider Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Been kicking this around for a while, trying a bunch of different approaches, and I think I've finally got one that fits in most of what I wanted. Might still tweak it a little, but I think this is gonna be the basic shape of it. I wanted to squeeze in my other Predator, a StormWolf, and one more GH Pack, but the Points just weren't there. CotGW Detachment is essentially there because I think the Relics are cooler and more fitting: according to Companies of Fenris, Egil Ironwolf favours twin Wolf Claws, and FrostFury, while probably too expensive, is one of the few shooting Relics that doesn't just straight up suck. Also, unlike the Relics of the Fang, you can take multiples on a single Character. I tried doing pure CotGW at first, but couldn't get comfortable with how small the Army ended up being, so I added in a CAD for room for more GH Packs. The WGBL in the CAD is Kvedulf Ironhand, a "special character" of my own invention. No special Rules, but I've written some background for him, and am working on building models of him at every stage in his career, from Fenrisian Tribesman to Venerable Dreadnaught. Working him in was another big goal of mine, and in some incarnations of the list, he was actually the Wolf Lord, having succeeded after The Ironwolf's death. It's weak again Flyers and FMCs, but like last year, I'll just trust to the matchup system and trying to dominate the ground game if I do end up against Flyers.

pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 This is for the Team event? Looks good. I like having your own characters too, obviously. Krakenbeard and Ironhand can throw back some brews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah, this is for the Team throwdown over the weekend. I'd ideally like to keep my Doubles list as close as possible to a subset of this, tho, to minimize how much I have to haul down to Portland.

pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Depending on points level, I think we could use the CotGW deathstar backed up by something on my end to good effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 That could be fun. It'd certainly keep my play moving fast, which is often an issue I have. Plus, it does get right to the face punching that I really enjoy about SW :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 If it's 2k, I'm thinking that Deathstar plus a stormwolf or something for you. Then maybe sisters for alpha strike and exorcists. Maybe a priest or two for your deathstar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'd prefer to avoid having to pack the StormWolf on top of the 8 Vehicles I'm already bringing, since it's kind of a hard one to find space for, but if that ends up being what works out best, I'll figure out a way to make it work. Might be able to do it with my big hand case for the Vehicles and the Infantry in my Chessex cases in my backpack, rather than the other way around like I usually do.

pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Remember, I've got SW. You don't have to pack it if you don't want. I'll bring one of mine. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Either way, academic until they release some details. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Looks like a great OFCC list. If our team holds out to what I think it will be we should all be sitting on 2s and be pretty easy to matchup against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Yeah, I would no problem putting that at a 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 @Pretre: Yeah, that would solve that problem perfectly. Like you say, tho, we'll wait until we see what we've actually got to work with. Re: rating: Now I come to think of it, after 8 of these, I've probably got the power level dialed in pretty well ;) Could someone please double-check my math, tho? After all the tries where I couldn't quite fit everything in, I'm paranoid that on the one I did, it's because I forgot to carry a 1, and this is actually a 2100 Point List.

WestRider Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Wunderbar! I was pretty sure, but I'd gone through enough revisions that it would have been all too easy to leave a mistake in there somewhere. Thanks again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestRider Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 A couple times I thought you made a mistake but then I realized it was me. ;) Reminds me of the time when I first met the dude who ran our D&D game all through college. We were working in pairs on a calculus problem, and we both made different mistakes that got us the same wrong answer :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
