The Games Workshop Discussion thread (includes the video games)
This thread is for discussing War Hammer, 40k, associated GW stuff etc. I want to see just how many fans of the hobby we have around here. This thread is new because the last one is at least 6 years old and I'm no thread necromancer. Might as well get this thread started.
The armies I play in 40k are Imperial Guard and World Eaters (many models in this army have some degree of conversion work on them). Guard Army List (1750): This is a combined arms list (a hybrid approach with a balance of foot, mechanized, and aerial components) HQ: -Company Commander with Medic, 3 Plasma Guns, Astropath. In Chimera with M. laser and Heavy Flamer. (I know this load out seems strange, but there's a method to my madness on this one. Way lay and weaken, then when enemies start getting too close, unload the flamer in a "counter attack" maneuver.) -Commisar Lord with Power Sword, Melta Bombs. Troops: -Platoon Commander with Autocannon and 2 plasma guns. --2 Guardsmen Squads with Grenade launcher and Autocannon. I find this set up to very a versatle jack of all trades unit. --Guardsman Squad with Grenade Launcher and Missile Launcher -Veterans with 3 meltas and lascannon. In Chimera with M. Laser and H. Flamer. My reasoning for this load out is similar to my choices with the Chimeras. -Veterans with 3 meltas and lascannon. In Chimera with M. Laser and H. Flamer. Fast Attack: - Vendetta - Vendetta - Hellhound with H. Bolter. A very underrated unit that's just wonderful for throwing wrenches into plans, especially a lot of xenos defensive strategies. Heavy Support -Leman Russ with hull and sposon H. Bolters Fortifications: -Aegis Defense Line with Quad Gun (Commisar Lord deploys with gun) World Eaters Army List (1750). This is a fluff list, but more in line with the older fluff with hard hitting melee units being supported with daemon engines/daemon units providing long range fire (Khorne cares not how the blood is spilled, merely that it does) HQ -Kharn The Betrayer Elites -4 Chaos Terminators with Mark of Khorne, Icon of Wrath, 4 Lightning Claw/Powerfists. In Chaos Land Raider Dedicated Transport with Extra Armor and Dirge Casters. (Not a bad AA unit due to TL giving a decent chance to land at least one hit.) Troops -8 Khorne Berserkers. Champion has Power Sword and melta bombs. In Chaos Rhino with Extra armor and Dirge Casters. -8 Khorne Berserkers. Champion has Power Sword and melta bombs. In Chaos Rhino with Extra armor and Dirge Casters. -8 Chaos Space Marines with Mark of Khorne, Icon of Wrath, and 2 meltas. Champion has Power Sword and melta bombs. In Chaos Rhino with Extra armor and Dirge Casters. (Represents the less experienced troops) Fast Attack -Hel Drake with Hades Autocannon Heavy Support -Forge Fiend with Hades Autocannons. (Makes a deceptively good AA unit due to torrent of fire and S8 gun to shoot down AV 12 flyers). -Chaos Obliterator with Mark of Khorne. Last edited by magnum12; 2013-02-13 at 14:30.
