Hurr! Ogryn Bone 'Ead!
|
Just in the interest of having a little bit of fun, I've decided to try and find out what dakkaites feels is the hardest list in the game based on the standard 3 missions in the rule book. Try and come up with the nastiest, most absurdly beardy army list you can come up with at the 2000 point level. This most certainly DOES NOT have to an army you play. Here's my try:
Space Wolves
Wolf Lord: Thunderwolf Mount, Thunder Hammer, Storm Shield, Wolftooth Necklance, Saga of the Bear
Grey Hunters x10: Rhino, 2 Meltaguns
Grey Hunters x10: Rhino, 2 Meltaguns
Grey Hunters x10: Rhino, 2 Meltaguns
Grey Hunters x10: Rhino, 2 Meltaguns
Thunder Wolf Calvary x5: 3 Storm Shields
Longs Fangs x6: 5 Missile Launchers, Razorback w/TL-Plasmagun and Lascannon
Longs Fangs x6: 5 Missile Launchers, Razorback w/TL-Plasmagun and Lascannon
Longs Fangs x6: 5 Missile Launchers, Razorback w/TL-Plasmagun and Lascannon
It's got your uber wolfstar unit that can take a massive amount of firepower and chew through hordes, terminators, and vehicles alike. Then there's the 40 power armored T4 scoring models with their APC's and some excellent AT firepower.. Lastly, the devastators give you an absurd firebase with the ability to threaten MC's, massed light infantry, and the dread Rhino/Chimera wall. The Razors are there for more cheap high str low AP long range firepower and can get your Long Fangs out of a pickle or just provide big mobile cover with guns.

Lesser Daemon of Chaos
Groningen, The Netherlands

To offer something different:
Fateweaver
Herald of Tzeentch, Bolt, MoS, Chariot
Blue Scribes
3 Flamers
6 Fiends, Unholy Might
6 Bloodcrushers, FoK, Instr, Chaos Icon
9 Horrors, Changeling, Bolt
5 Plaguebearers
5 Plaguebearers
4 Screamers, Unholy Might
Daemon Prince, MoT, Bolt, Gaze
Daemon Prince, MoT, Bolt, Gaze
Daemon Prince, MoN, IH, Noxious Touch, CoF
2000 points
As long as Fateweaver lives its very sturdy and by the time the opponent finishes him off the rest should be in his face in a very depressing manner.
Just for fun: eNvY has a list with 15 ML Long Fangs. Fateweaver has a good chance to survive the first two turns of all of them shooting at him and to die only after a third turn of shooting... :-)
15 ML; 10 Hit; 8.3 Wound; 2.77 Failed First Saves; 0.9259 Failed Second Saves
Ld Check on Ld 9: Chance of failure: 6/36 or 1/6
Fateweaver has 3 wnds

Honestly, I'm seeing a lot of "meh" here. I don't think my army would have all that difficult of a time with anything here.
The armies I'd least like to fight are the ones that have the most spam. For example, a 6 tervigon list would be terrifying as not only would that be 36 T6 wounds to slowly, slowly chew through, but they would pop out an average of over 60 termagaunts PER TURN. Assuming really good rolling, the theoretical maximum 6 tervagons can put out in a 6-turn game is over FIVE HUNDRED TERMAGAUNTS! Oh, and by the way, this costs less than 1,000 points, so good luck dealing with everything else in the tyranid list.
Alternately, I could see some pretty bogus abuse of "send in the next wave" guard conscript SPAM, along with the more mundane green tide totally covered with KFFs.

How do you get 6 tervigons? Besides there is a post above using a list of 5 tervigons anyhow.

Will take 3 turns minimum to get 180 models up the board. You will lose atleast half before you get there. In a timed tournament you won't even see rd 4. You have zero ranged anti tank (where are your lootas????). So lets say you pop the tank with your PK and 10 marines pour out that you cannot assault. Now it's his turn and he rips down your squad with bolter fire and a flamer. I'll trade a rhino for a squad of 15-20 boys that MIGHT be alive after hoofing it 3' up the board.

Three Turns?
In pitched battle with Ghazkull you'll be in CC on turn 2. Dawn of War will be a problem, but if Orks got the first turn it would be the same thing.
What would I be losing half the orks to? A Leaf Blower? Maybe... The Kans have Rokkits, but are there to give a little bit of cover. If wreck a tank that you've surrounded and there's marines inside that can't get out they die, and bolters do not kill Orks as well as you seem to think. You will not kill 15 boyz with 9 bolters and a flamer.

6 str 7 shots per turn.
12 TL str 6 rending shots per turn.
18 str 5 shots per turn.
3 TL str 5 templates per turn.
3 str 4 templates per turn.
Everything can move 13-18" per turn (if needed).
First turn baals are already in midfield with smoke up (good old BA FAQ) Everything moves up, in objective games razors behind the preds so if you want to shoot them (instead of the 9 av13 on the table) they'll have 3+ cover. If you push hard enough straight away the enemy is either stuck in his deployment zone or forced to advance, straight into Meph and the lib dreads. Dreads can keep up with the preds with wings, and give them all 5+ cover with shield, while still allowing them to fire to full effect. Meph skulks around behind a pred, and waits for someone to come too close, or goes to smash that land raider or monolith (since the army lacks melta meph and the lib dreads will have to deal with av14). Gonna play this list this weekend, should be fun

From an Eldar point of view, I wouldn't fancy playing against the ultimate Iyanden list:
6 x 10 wraithguard units as troops
3 x 10 wraithguard units as elites
3 x wraithlords as heavies.
Add in an HQ or two as you like (if you've the points to spare - ha ha).
This gives you:
90 T6 wounds
9 T8 wounds
I cant be bothered to add up the points but it would be stupidly high.
I think I'd just pack up and go home if I had to face that.
At the same point if someone bought 90 wraithguard then they've more money than sense (at £8 a pop = £720).
I'm not saying it's unbeatable - just done a quick calc. and it comes in at over 4000pts, just how would you get through it unless you tailored a list to beat it.

CCS: Medic, 3x Plasma, Astropath, Melta Bomb
6x Vets: 3x melta guns, shotguns (each)
Marbo
3x Vendettas
3x Vendettas
3x Valks w/MRPs
Everything goes in a bird. Depending on my mood, everything can outflank. Against horde armies, it might have a problem, but I think any Marine, Tau, or Eldar player will have a difficult time to say the least.

Something more unusual at the 2000 pt level:
Eldrad
3x 10 Harlequins with kisses and fusion guns, incl. Shadowseer
3x 10 Guardian Defenders in Serpents
2 Vypers
3 Fire Prisms
Here the heavy skimmers will be thown in front of the Harlies if necessary to shield their advance when they close in.

We are considering to build quite annoying list of Eldars with my friend... The real list is still open, but maybe some day, you'll see it in a tournament.
Basic idea:
-Take 2 big squads of Harleguins with best available weaponry. Thats our main force.
-As troops, take only small squads of Pathfinders
-As fire support, maybe three Wraithlords
-HQ is still open, maybe we use Dark reaper character or couple of psykers with Doom. Do we need more shooting power or do we want to boost our units of 10 pathfinders?
Tactics:
-Our list consist mostly units you cannot shoot or are in invulnerable 2+ cover save. How flustrating is that? You can try to shoot, you can shoot, but the results? Zero, waste of time. Load your wraithlord with pinning weaponry, and zadam... most of your units are causing pinning. That cripples some armies. Totally!
The basic tactic is simple. Shoot in cover, take out any huge area based weaponry, keep shooting, until your opponent must go for charge against your lovely Harlequins, only to get chewed by masses of rending attacks.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Hmm... and because people are reading new Blood angels codex at the moment, maybe one idea from that list.
Take some assault squads, and as a main force: huge unit of Death Company. Let's say, something about 25-30 models. With feel no pain and Lemartes, this unit is invulnerable. Include about 4-8 power fist or thunder hammers, and your unit eats it's way through anything.

Harlequins can't be shot at from far away, true, but what happens when someone gets close? Theyre really not "that" great in combat.
The 30 man DC has been tried and abandoned before. Rage rapes them, as they go running around the board after a solitary rhino, not to mention 30 DC costs 600pts already without upgrades, with jump packs their 1050, which is absolutely ridiculous.

It's one of Stelek's lists with some slight changes.
HQ: Wolf Lord in Power Armour (3#, 300 pts)
1 Wolf Lord in Power Armour @ 300 pts (Belt of Russ; Runic Armour; Wolftooth Necklace; Thunderwolf Mount; Fenrisian Wolf; Power Fist x1; Wolf Claw x1; Rending in CC only; Saga of the Warrior Born)
2 Fenrisian Wolf (Unit Type: Beasts; Vicious claws and fangs; Counter-attack)
HQ: Wolf Lord in Power Armour (3#, 290 pts)
1 Wolf Lord in Power Armour @ 290 pts (Belt of Russ; Runic Armour; Thunderwolf Mount; Fenrisian Wolf; Power Fist x1; Wolf Claw x1; Eternal Warrior; Rending in CC only; Saga of the Bear)
2 Fenrisian Wolf (Unit Type: Beasts; Vicious claws and fangs; Counter-attack)
HQ: Wolf Lord in Power Armour (3#, 270 pts)
1 Wolf Lord in Power Armour @ 270 pts (Belt of Russ; Runic Armour; Wolf Tail Talisman; Thunderwolf Mount; Fenrisian Wolf; Power Fist x1; Wolf Claw x1; Rending in CC only; Saga of the Beastslayer)
2 Fenrisian Wolf (Unit Type: Beasts; Vicious claws and fangs; Counter-attack)
HQ: Wolf Lord in Power Armour (3#, 275 pts)
1 Wolf Lord in Power Armour @ 275 pts (Belt of Russ; Melta Bombs; Runic Armour; Thunderwolf Mount; Fenrisian Wolf; Power Fist x1; Wolf Claw x1; Rending in CC only; Saga of Majesty)
2 Fenrisian Wolf (Unit Type: Beasts; Vicious claws and fangs; Counter-attack)
Troops: Grey Hunters Pack (6#, 110 pts)
5 Grey Hunters Pack @ 110 pts (Flamer; Rhino)
1 Rhino
Troops: Grey Hunters Pack (6#, 110 pts)
5 Grey Hunters Pack @ 110 pts (Flamer; Rhino)
1 Rhino
Troops: Grey Hunters Pack (6#, 110 pts)
5 Grey Hunters Pack @ 110 pts (Flamer; Rhino)
1 Rhino
Troops: Grey Hunters Pack (6#, 110 pts)
5 Grey Hunters Pack @ 110 pts (Flamer; Rhino)
1 Rhino
Fast Attack: Thunderwolf Cavalry (5#, 425 pts)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry @ 425 pts (Thunderwolf Cavalry; Thunderwolf Cavalry; Thunderwolf Cavalry; Thunderwolf Cavalry)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry (Storm Shield)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry (Storm Shield)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry (Storm Shield)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry (Storm Shield)
1 Thunderwolf Cavalry (Storm Shield; Power Fist)
Total Roster Cost: 2000
The 4 HQs all attach to the Thunderwolf Unit giving you a 8 T4 (6+) alabative wounds, 12 T5 (2+/4+) wounds (3 of which are immune to instant death) and 10 T5 (3+/3+) wounds.
That also includes 24 WS 6 Strength 5 Wolf Claw attacks at initiative 5(or 24 WS 6 Strength 10 powerfist attacks), 24 WS 4 Strength 4 regular attacks at initiative 4, 20 WS 4 Strength 5 rending attacks at initiative 4 and 5 WS 4 Strength 10 PF fist attacks at initiative 1.
The Saga of the Warrior Lord can get a ton of attacks, the Saga of Majesty allows you to re-roll your LD 10 checks, the Bear is nice against instant death and the Saga of the Beastslayer is good against Dreads and T5 or greater.
The threat range is 19-24 inches and the unit negates enemy psychic powers that affect it on a 5+. With Counterattack you are almost guaranteed to get your charging attacks and you also have frag grenades for units in cover.
This Super Rock kills full jetbike councils in 2 assault phases, Nob bikers in one assault phase, TH/SS terminators in 1 assault phase and most other units included. It can charge 2 30 man Ork Boys squads and cause 44 wounds in one assault phase (after accounting for fearless wounds).
Because each of the Lords is different you can perform some nice wound allocation tricks (including using the fenrisian or saga of the bear to absorb Strength 10 attacks). The Wolf Rock is such a threat that most of the time if your opponent is shooting your rhinos, they are going to get tabled by the wolf unit. If you are keeping track it's a 1560 point rock.
Good Luck bogging it down as the more you throw at it the more Saga of the Warrior Borne kills and the 4 IC can break off to contest objectives on the final turn if you haven't already tabled your enemy.

Not the most competetive, but cheesy,
2 x 5 man scout units.
5 TH SS Termies
5 TH SS termies
5 TH SS Termies
All in Land Raiders of your choosing
Shrike
Pedro.
3 Land Raiders full of Termies w/ fleet and Pedro gives them all extra attacks.
Still leaves 150 points or so. Leaves some wiggle room for Vulcan or antoher charachter plus you could kit out the LRaiders.
So I guess you could run this at 1850 and hope your opponent cant handle termies or Land Raiders.
