on jetbikes they start 18" away with 2 or 3 models tailing away that way the farseer can cast and be +24" away.

If I lose it is because I had bad luck, if you win it is because you cheated.

Skarbrand,
20 daemonetts
2 heralds of slaneesh

re-rolling to hit at I6 with rending could put a hurting on it.

Other than that, all I can think of is Scabathraxx(Forge World GUO) Since his toughness value is too high to be hurt by that unit. But that does not really count...

Since my codex isn’t right next to me I’ll have to do this off the top of my head, but:
Land Raider Crusader - 260
Logan -275
Ragnar Blackmane- 200ish?
10x Wolf Guard W/ power weapons, bolt pistols -280
Total 1015 (give or take)

With the charge and an average of +2 attacks from Ragnars ability, Logan’s +1 and preffered enemy that’s;

9 STR6 ini 6 attacks from Ragnar
9 STR 9 attacks from Logan or 9 STR6 at ini 6
60 Pwr Wpn ant ini5 from the Wolf Guard

And they re-roll to hit, and the wolf guard are troop choices cause of logan.

yea, logan was my original idea, but i opted for Ulrik, because he is cheaper.

THE HORUS HERESY: Emprah: Hours, go reconquer the galaxy so there can be a new golden age. Horus: But I should be Emprah, bawwwwww! Emprah: Magnus, stop it with the sorcery. Magnus: But I know what's best, bawwwwww! Emprah: Horus, tell Russ to bring Magnus to me because I said so. Horus: Emprah wants you to kill Magnus because he said so. Russ: Fine. Emprah's always right. Plus Ole Red has already been denounced as a traitor and I never liked him anyway. Russ: You're about to die, cyclops! Magnus: O noes! Tzeentch, I choose you! Bawwwww! Russ: Ah well. Now to go kill Horus. Russ: Rowboat, how have you not been doing anything? Guilliman: . . . I've been writing a book. Russ: Sigh. Let's go. Guilliman: And I fought the Word Bearers! Horus: Oh shi--Spess Puppies a'comin? Abbadon: And the Ultramarines, sir. Horus: Who? Anyway, this looks bad. *enter Sanguinis* What are you doing here? Come to join me? Sanguinius: *throws self on Horus's power claws* Alas, I am undone! When you play Castlevania, remember me! *enter Emprah* Emprah: Horus! So my favorite son killed my favorite daughter! Horus: What about the Lion? Emprah: Never liked her. Horus: No one does. Now prepare to die! *mortally wounds Emprah*Emprah: Au contraire, you dick. *kills Horus* Dorn: Okay, now I just plug this into this and . . . okay, it works! Emprah? Hellooooo? Jonson: I did nothing! Guilliman: I did more nothing that you! Jonson: Nuh-uh. I was the most worthless! Guilliman: Have you read my book? Dorn: No one likes that book. Khan: C'mon guys. It's not that bad. Dorn: I guess not. Russ: You all suck. Ima go bring the Emprah back to life.

Blood Angels, Dante and full Honour guard loaded up, plus mephiston and a death company at 6 men. WIth the Furious charge I 5 rending, preferred enemy with Dante all around, your unit is -1 ws and ballistic skill all around, mephiston steals 1 attack from each of your models, and it packs rending and a str 5 t 5 mehiston and init 6 with his force weapon and using all his powers and said force weapon every player turn. Add in 3 meltas and 3 plasma pistols and jump packs, I jump in from 12 away, fry your land raider then charge in, I don't know if it would win, but is law of averages holds out everyone is going away really hurt. Oh the price, 725.

How much does that cost? 700 points ish?


Then I say - 50 Daemonettes.

Hits you first with 150 (!!!!) S3 RENDING attacks at WS4.

Aura of Acquiesence means even in the EXTREMELY unlikely event that you don't all die before hitting back, you get no extra attacks from charging.

AND the have 5+ Invul saves so you can stick your power weapons in your ear

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!
SKULLS FOR HIS SKULL THRONE!!!

3000pts
500pts

You just couldn't handle the truth. God knows why anyone would want that cookie anyway. I can only imagine what foul demons possess such a thing as to make it stand on its side like that. I prefer my cookies horizontal and without eternal damnation. - Ridcully

Either that or take a 4+ cover save from all of GW's red tape blocking LoS to the way to play it. - Kitzz

OK, 10 ogryns with commissar yarrick and two priests with evicerators, and a second commissar lord with a pair of power fists for good measure. About 800 points for all that

-Any terrain containing Sly Marbo is dangerous terrain.
-Sly Marbo once played an objective mission just to see what it was like to not meet every victory condition on his own.
-Sly Marbo bought a third edition rulebook just to play meat grinder as the attacker.
-Marbo doesn't need an Eldar farseer as an ally; his enemies are already doomed
-Sly Marbo was originally armed with a power weapon, but he dropped it while assaulting a space marine command squad just so his enemies could feel pain
-Sly Marbo still attacks the front armor value in assault, for pity's sake.

Battlewagon Driver with Charged Engine




Two units of 10 MANZ each, all armed with kombi-skorchas for a total of 900 pts. Since they can Waagh! the odds are (slightly) on their side for getting the charge. They grit their teeth and absorb your first strike, then the survivors shove their powerklaws so far up your collective asses that your tongues are electrocuted. I'm not sure if they would win or not, but it'd be a terrific mess on both sides.

Alternatively, if you're in your LR, they simply surround it, pop it with S9 PK hits, and kill off most of your unit by denying them room to disembark.

And if somehow they end up close enough not to need to run (not very likely), they land a TON of S5 templates on you to strip off your PW Wolf Guard, then charge. That would be absolute best-case, and would probably never happen, but hey, a man can hope.

10 howling banshee's + Exarch, War shout, Acrobatic, Executioner, Serpent, TL-brightlance, stones & star engine = 352

x2

= win.

I see it as 10 (well + another couple from the IC's) wounds that have a 3+ armour save (from the OP). I go first, regardless and between the two squad's should be about 10-11 wounds. That should equate to 8-9 dead space wolves and some wounds on the invulnerable saving IC's. Pistols & No-Retreat should kill them off.
