http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/17.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net FLGS and we played a maelstrom mission. I was running
CAD:
Farseer - spear, spirit stone
spriitseer - rending pistol relic
5 wraithguard (cannons) - wave serpent - BL, cannon, holo fields
10 avenger - exarch pw/shield
3 shuriken cannon jetties

Aspect Host:
6 dragons - exarch wave serpent BL, cannon
6 dragons - exarch wave serpent BL, cannon
5 spiders - exarch

LOW:
Knight - cannons, 2 scatter lasers

He had a super unit of the 5 smasha cannons, 5 battle wagons, some Gretchen, some boys, 2 trucks. I was pretty worried about the unit of artillery and the one battlewagon with a warboss in mega armor, 3 meganobz, painboy and mech.

So I had slotted to go first and what happens, you ask? Yes, I got seized on AGAIN! He ended up killing the wraithguard's serpent for first blood, which was pretty frustrating. Footslogging 12" range d-guns isn't my idea of a good time. They ended up holding the middle of my line (obj 4) and killed a truck and like 5 boys total haha. I only ended up losing 2 wave serpents and the unit of warp spiders. My jetbikes ended up failing a morale for losing a guy, but passed the next turn after NOT running off the board! Papa death was the MVP though. He 1-shotted 2 battle wagons, killed the warboss and swept the ENTIRE artillery unit after 1 round of combat. The wraithknight is a very good unit. I am finding him more and more and auto-include. As much as I don't want to have units like that, he draws a large amount of fire from my other units, which are VERY good too, so they are allowed to do their thing. Having 2 units of dragons puts loads of pressure on enemy armor and infantry alike (kind of wasted on light infantry, but it still dies the same way).

In the end I scored 10! vp on the bottom of turn 5 to take a 21-15 lead on vp, while it ended 20-3 on the KP front. Actually if I counted warlord and line breaker I won 23-16 on vp. Oops. I like the list. What do y'all think?

Thanks for sharing. One of the big ways I'm finding WG to be useful is utilizing the Wraith Host formation as well as making the entire army a Warhost- this gives all the Wraith units a 6" Battle Focus move, making the need for transports less necessary.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/650067/7859077.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/650067/7859077.page GMT WG to actually run the wraith formation, so unfortunately that's out. Grav weapons always will be the bane of anything beefy. WG, WK all hate grav. Especially pod or bike grav. The pod grav I dealt with.

Lost the WK top of 1 when he seized, but after that it was cleanup duty of everything else, as he handed me mephiston and 3 grav cents to get 1st blood. He was upset when mephy got 6'd out ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/650067/7860276.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/650067/7860276.page GMT
