I have all the SW models I need for this. ABOUT to buy all of the IG models I need, will cost me around $150 I think. Vote yes or no on this list, if more yes votes then no, then I'll buy the IG Tuesday Night


SW's

1 Wolf Priest with Saga of Hunter attached to
10 Hunters with wolfen, banner, 2 meltas (outflanking due to hunters)

10 hunters with wolfen, banner, 2 meltas in Rhino

3 sets of LFs

2x 4 MLs
1x 4 PC's


IG

Primaris Pyscher (goes with PC Long fangs, they are big target...make people roll leadership to shoot them)

Platoon command squad with Al'Rahim (outflanking) + 1 HF + 1 medipack
50 Infantry guys attached (blob) in there
all 50 guys have krak grenades (MC's and vehicles)
1 HF, 3 Grenade Launchers, 3 Missile Launchers, 1 plasma buried in there.

Overview of General tactics with them

1) Long fangs surpress
2) Rhino in back helps with mid table objectives and anything that scouts/deep strikes deep in my backyard
3) Hunters with Priest come in to grab objectives from mid sized and mid armoured squads, especially ones bunkered up in back
4) IG blog comes in and challenges enemies biggist and baddest unit. Since no fearless pokes should be pretty safe (I assume they get mob rule...right? over 10 and can't panic...). They will at least tarpit crazy units for a few turns and may wreck alot of stuff with 1st rank/2nd rank order and snap shooting incoming stuff.


You guys decide...Yes I buy it...No I won't.


go...

comeon fellas...gotta get some feedback in the next few hours...if it sucks, tell me....

The blob is most certainly not fearless, and will die in sweeping advance unless you add some sort of commissar or space wolf special character. I'd recommend the second as atsknf is pretty cool on a blob, and wolf lords are spectacular in challenges.

You should also spend some points on upgrades. Power axe sergeants, special weapons, and even heavy weapons are all nice to give those infantry some teeth.

Medipack is not worth the points and heavy flamer is not worth the cost of 4 regular flamers.

You should get a vendetta. They are one of the very best fliers

wolf priest with saga of the hunter would be awesome for the blob. Fearless, Stealth and outflank would be sweet.
This will save points on Al'Rahim and make the outflank more reliable.
This means having 3 rhino grey hunters.
Then you may as well give meltaguns and a chimera to the command squad, as it fits with the rhino. Else get a flyer for them to fly in.

You may as well bring the IG AA gun tank, as you have no method to take out flyers.
Also they have a flyer and flyers are cool.

Then I would use wolfguard to set up the grey hunters, as their leadership is awesome.
Also I would have as many rune priests as you can as they are awesome.

would a Lord/Priest with Outflank attached to a blob confer outflank to the blob? I would think so, as the Al'Rahem does it for them.

This is a great idea, forget about al rahem and put the Lord/Priest in there...since he'll confer ATSKNF on them and help them in challenges. Will save me some points as well. Good idea. And yeah, with acute senses..they can reroll their outflank move to be more reliable. Great advice. The only thing I like about al rahem is that you can issue orders with him and get another shot per guy on the turn they come in, but I guess in return you could give them all prefered enemy...rerolling all 1's in shooting and wounding and CC, probably a good trade off.

then yeah, 3 rhino GH's....and putting a RP in one or two as I move up in points.

Nice advice...thanks
