Adolescent Youth on Ultramar
Hampton, VA
|
Hello all,
My name is Kevin, and like so many others who can paint, I can't play to save my life. The dice seriously have it in for me. Show me a statistics table on any set of dice, and I will upset it every time. This however has not stopped me from running up a vastly overwhelming ratio of losses to wins and still coming back for more. I currently have three armies in my collection. I have my old faithful Ultramarines weighing in at around 6000 points. Then there are my pride in workmanship army, the Tau settling in at about 2800 points. Last of all, but likely my favorite are the Jade Dragons I started about 2 years ago and am still working on. I play them as a Salamanders sub chapter and run a custom Vulkan He'stan as my force commander. They still lose a lot, but they inflict a lot more damage too. I am currently trying to sell my Tau and Ultras in order to further fund my new army, so if you happen to know anybody in the Hampton Roads, VA area looking for some well painted Ultramarines or Tau, I will be posting an ad and pics in the Swap Forum, and I also have an ad in craigslist in Hampton Roads. I am always looking for tips and ideas on how to run a good Salamanders force org. Just to give you a rundown on my current list:
He'stan (working on Salamanders HG for Command Sqd with Razorback)
1x5 Assault (JP) Sgt has PP/PF
2x10 Tach 1flammer ea Sgts have BP/CS (Need 2x Currently using Ultra's Rhinos)
2x Black Reach Dreads MM/PF and Flammer ea
2x Land Speeders with magnetic loadouts capable of any legal combo in the box from typhoon to MM/HF
1x5 Terms with 1HF and 1CF
1x5 Assault Terms 4xLC 1xHammer
1x5 Devs with 4 RL Sgt with BP/CS
Once again, Howdy and I look forward to hearing from anybody who cares to chime in.

Welcome to Dakka!
You've got the idea, Swap Shop for the Tau, WH49k Army Lists for help on the list.
