TACTICS

Deathwing: dreads start on the field and advance whilst taking out any AP2 weapons, dreads and killa cans. meanwhile half the deathwing, belial and his command squad, the interrogator chaplain with squad 2 and squad 3 deathwing assault in where they can. in subesquent turns the other two squads depoly as and where they are needed to support or contest. if needed squads 4 and 5 depoly on the board and only command squad and squad 2 DWA leaving squad 3 to teleport in later.

Spacewolves: rhinos move forward onto objectives with GHs and rune preists, drop pod supports the melta scouts which try and get ghazghkull out of the battlewagon while the other scouts help tie up units in the backfield. long fangs and razor backs hold home objective, while canis and his wolves go munch a mob squad or two. the lone wolf is there for tying up a unit somewhere or for helping splatter ghaz if he gets close enough.

so what do you all think?

cheers Hoots and danpesci

Looks good, but you'll be hard pressed to kill the battlewagons only the meltaguns are a real threat to it and those are few and all in the SW side.
your terminators need TH&SS in there to absorb powerklaw swings
Also you can't have heavy flamer on the missile launcher arm of the dreadnought.

[DanPesci]

Im space pups player involved in this

Aye i just realised the heavy flamer mistake too

the battlewagon is gonna still be a bit of an issue as you say, but will hopefully get lucky with the scouts or a grey hunter melta, or if it comes in Long Fang plasma cannon range.

Onyl thing i could really think is to try save some points elsewhere and upgrade the long fang razorbacks to las/plas instead of heavy bolter

really love your deathwing list, i'v made a few but never really been content with that, but i think i may try out yours!

thanks, havent payed with it yet but im drawn to the pure DW as i really like the unique challenge of using so few units (5 squads of termies dosent seem so bad though) just started painting this at around christmas so need a little while longer b4 taking any pics but with the game being on hold for a while i'll have no excuses. will have to try a few smaller build up battles in the meantime although need to line up an even bigger game at some point so i can include land my landraiders and librarian

Have just edited a few changes into the list ie flamers removed from dreadnoughts, combi flamer on chaplain and a sprinkling of TH/SS for squad survivability

[XxShadowstepinxX]

hehe yeah i just started painting my ravenwing, but i'm tossing a twist on it i'm rolling angels of absolution, thought it would look pretty cool got 3 bikes done atm and it's turning out pretty good so far!
