I attended Semi's at Lost Legion Comics and Games in Beckley WV

The store owner and TO David did an excellent job of managing the tourney and provided free pizza.

Although I originally wanted to take some pictures the day was too hectic and I was so embroiled in the games that I did not take a single picture.
Here is my list Blood Angels

2 Sang Priests with JP
2 Chaplins 1 with JP
2 ASM squads 10 JP marines each with 2 meltas and sgt with fist
1 ASM Squad 10 JP marines each with 2 meltas and sgt with TH

Dem Boyz Is In Da Side vs Space Wolves

Space Wolves List
2 Wolf Guard Leaders on Thunderwolfs with various gear including 2 fenrisian wolfs per leader
1 Rune Priest with storm caller and tempests wrath
2 grey hunter packs x5 hunters each squad in LC/Plas Razors
1 grey hunter pack x10 with Arjac and a wolf guard in a Redeemer
1 grey hunter pack x10 with Rune priest and a wolf guard in a Crusader
1 Thunderwolf cav. X6 TW each with individualized kit
2 speeder squads each with one typhoon/MM speeder

Summary

I deployed one ASM squad a bit too close to where the wolves came on and they got eaten. I had one round of terrible melta shooting fired 8 shots hit once and rolled double 1’s for pen. That set me back a bit.

Both of us made a major mistake, him declaring a long charge with his Thunder wolves forgetting he was in difficult terrain (he wanted a multi charge and that left him standing there for a turn) and I forgot to charge my last two DC on turn 6 which could have made it a draw as it was I took a minor loss 9 to 6 KP giving me 9 Battle Points (had two of the bonus points; killed enemy most expensive unit and held one objective)

I do have to mention that my opponent was really cool. He was upset when he made his mistake as was I but we sucked it up and went with it. A great game.

Ahh I see you added sponsons to your Baal Preds. looks like a nice melee battle, I heard you grazed a win against Joe round 3, nice job.

Thanks. yes the round 3 game against joe was a blast. Such carnage.

I probably will get stomped at Finals but WTH my first ard boyz for 40k and I am going to finals... so may as well go meet some folks and have fun. (maybe pull another stealth placement; top 5 would be remarkable)

I think it is interesting that you both played on essentially half the board. Do you think spreading him out more would have helped given the speed of your vehicles? You could have redeployed to crush a flak much more quickly.

lol what would be funny is if you took scouts in LRR and 3 baal preds and scouted the majority of your army. would be silly but fun

Yes perhaps I should have, but with the enter from the short table edges I did not want to give any charges to his raiders as they came on.

So how did the riffleman dread fair in your games this time?

The rifleman Dread did excellent.

Game 1. Blew up a Razorback pinning its squad and helped whittle down thunderwolfs
Game 2. 2 wave serpents and a wound or two on wraith lords
Game 3. a couple meganobz and held up the last unit of boyz near my objective locking them in combat.

It has been a solid choice for me in most of my games and I do not leave home without it now.

Thats good, he is a solid low AV poper and usually isent flashy or killy enough for shots to be put on him first. he dose his job well which is softening up you opposition before you assault

What's the morale of the story when you reconsider your army list after the battles?
Some changes?
