Its just 40k aint what it used to be with all these shots flying across the table. You would of done a lot better if you would of played against Orks or some other Space Marines. Necrons are broken and Tau are tough to last the first two turns against until you get into assault with them. I love playing my wolves against Orks. I run Canis Wolfborn and Priest on bike attached to a pack of 5 Thunderwolves with a pack of 4 puppies and one cyberwolf. A lot of fun! Expensive, and I may not win the match, but fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-90564888344883594862014-11-15T12:44:42.146+00:002014-11-15T12:44:42.146+00:00Sorry, I hadn't slept much when I wrote that r...Sorry, I hadn't slept much when I wrote that reply and reacted badly to the "horrible list" bit.

I deliberately didn't run the best list I could. <br /><br />I'm quite happy that I know how to write the most horrible list I could but if you read more of this blog you'll realise that isn't my style either.<br /><br />Also, if I hear someone tell me again about an iron priest in the flyer I may just explode. Coincidentally that's exactly why it's a waste of points. <br /><br />Also long fangs in a bunker or anything else are a waste of time.From The Fanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01043549318855295914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-82988614281338017282014-11-15T04:01:57.645+00:002014-11-15T04:01:57.645+00:00Its because you took a horriable list of Space wol...Its because you took a horriable list of Space wolves. You need to drop the Landraider and invest in a Knight from House Hawkshroud. Did you have a meatshield with cyberwolf running in front of your TW Cav? Grey hunters are still good, but just use them for securing objectives and leave the CCW at home. Run an Iron priest in your flier with 3 seritors. That way you get 2+ IWND for the best flier in the game. Space wolves are cheap on bikes now and can lay down alot of bolter shots. Give the bike squad an attack bike, wolf priest with preffered enemy and FNP and they and hard to take down. You also might want want to think about running a suicide squad of Wolf Guard w/combi-meltas. Just five or six in a drop pod to take out that one thing. Last but not least, I have four words for you "Long Fangs Imperial Bunker". Think about it. You cannot run the Space wolves the way we used to at these competition's, they will get shot to death.

I Have no critisms at all lists competitive but not depressingly beardy players all friendly whether they were losing or winning . Alex run blogwars Well no major disagreements or rules debates certainly in my games. The only thing i Have found and this Had nothing to do with the tournament is the games of 40 k ive play ed lately either i Have won easily or lost badly no close games im beginning to think the game mechanic of 40 k is broken . My last game was close and was the best game i play ed i really dont enjoy tabling someone as much as i dont like it happening to me :( . Close games r much more fun .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937515411618834127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-4302631712126738612014-11-13T20:55:35.513+00:002014-11-13T20:55:35.513+00:00I would hardly call it criminally low.

You can't please everyone though, some want a lot of scenery and others don't.<br /><br />Not every battle in the 41st millennium needs to be played with exactly the same amount of scenery. You have to adapt to the conditions you face. I had terrain ruin games when there's too much impassable LoS blocking stuff. There needs to be a balance.From The Fanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01043549318855295914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-67664732394772180472014-11-13T20:53:13.464+00:002014-11-13T20:53:13.464+00:00You'd think my LRs would've survived at le...You'd think my LRs would've survived at least one game!
