Haha go Ogryn! That was so funny he made that many 2+ saves. If it were me you can almost bet that im failing AT LEAST two of those saves. Great report Reece!

Fingers crossed they get some love in the new codex, I really want to run them but at their current cost it's crazy to not just take another Vendetta instead.

BAO 2015 : Best Space Wolves.

The best battle plans are the simplest. Just run forward and punch your enemy in the face.

I would imagine that the price of Ogryns would go down and the price of Vendettas will go up but that's just pure speculation. If they do anything like the Tyranids Codex who knows what point prices there will be? Hey Reece what's that "Thunderer" you were playing with?

I think the Thunderer is essentially an IG Vindicator basically, built on a Russ chassis. I think it also has higher BS or something than a normal IG tank.

Thank you very much! At first glance I thought it was a Vindicator then I saw the Russ chasis so I was a bit confused especially since they are both armed with the same cannon.

It has BS3, I accidentally said it was BS4, sorry.

It is a Vindicator, essentially, really good for it's low points cost.

I know you said BS4 in the video, but I thought it and the turbo laser destroyer tank hunter had some weird targeting system or something. Oh well, that may have been back in the days when Forgeworld just had alot of the epic IG tank stuff for the serious treadheads!

@ansacs

Yeah, the Azzrael Ogryn star is super fun! Not that good, but awesome!

@Whitedragon

Yeah, sorry for the confusion, it is basically a Demolisher with no turret or sponsons.

True story.

Oh, and I just noticed this, the Thunderer is NOT a heavy tank which is rad as it means it can go faster if it doesn't shoot.

Man, that thing is miles better than a Demolisher in the current rules.

Yeah. miles better by far. But it's an IG vehicle, so it really should be.
