Goatboy's House of Awesome!

Goatboy here again. I did more experiments with NMM. It made me think - crap I am going to have to redo a lot of my Grey Knights army. Arghs! Or I just say f it - maybe sell it and then build it all again. But I digress. I played Ard Boyz and tied for 2nd/3rd with Darkwynn taking first. I had 2 tough matchups where a 4+ on a lot of it would have won me a major. Oh well - still I won every game so that is good too.

RD 1 - Mech IG - Minor Victory. It was a tough one and I lost due to the traitor not coming in and counting as "killed". Stupid reserve rolls and his -1 to reserve rolls. I only got one outflanking option on my traitor squad so it wasn't all bad. Still I shot a lot and killed things. It was a shooting game.

RD 2 - IG - 250+ model horde list. Lord this was a bad one. I played the reserve game again and he didn't move to engage the objectives. If I rolled a 4+ I would have gotten two of his objectives contested and I would have won a major victory. It was fun an the type of IG list I would play as it pushes the idea of - can you kill all this stuff.

RD 3 - CSM - basic list and the guy didn't have much due to not having enough models. It was a bad match up and my termie squad took out almost his entire army. Psychotroke grenades went nutty with a 6 rolled on some plague marines and they all failed their Initiative tests. Purifiers picked them up and just kept on kicking things in the nuts. I killed every model and just lost my GM and all but one Terminator.

Here is the list - I got some more ideas and I think RD 2 I am going to play a crap ton more Purifiers and try less of the Psychotroke nonsense. One unit and that is it.

GM, Psycannon, Psykotroke, Rad Grenades
Crowe
Techmarine, Psychotroke, Rad, Warding Stave, Servo Skulls X 3
Vindicare
Purifiers X 8, Warding Stave X 1, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psycannon X 2, Halberds X 4, Rhino
Purifiers X 5, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psycannon X 1, Razorback, Psybolt
Purifiers X 5, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psycannon X 1, Razorback, Psybolt
Purifiers X 5, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psycannon X 1, Razorback, Psybolt
GKT X 10, Thawn, Bro Banner, Psycannon X 2, Halberds X 6, Daemon Hammer X 2
Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

I think I got a better build idea next time. So will see as I prepare other lists. I did think of what might be my next personal paint project. Will see if it works out and I get a good start model done.

Other then that I am just still working on more orks and other bits and pieces. I have more Infinity to do and some other cool things. Here is what I want to paint this week.

It's Sunday


And I am at work. Hooray! I got a crap ton of painting done these last two days so you will see the list be partially filled already. Awesome! Beyond that I keep on plugging away at Ard Boyz ideas. Lots and lots of stuff there. I want to try and make a - FU army as usual. Something that just ignores a lot of things and goes about its business of beating some face. Current Grey Knights list thoughts.

HQ: Crowe
HQ: Xenos Inquisitor, Power Armor, Servo Skull, Conversion Beamer
Elites: Henchmen - Jokaero X 2, MM Servitor X 3, Chimera, Hvy Flamer
Elites: Venerable Dread, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt
Elites: Techamarine, Servo Skull, Warding Stave, Rad Grenades, Psychotroke Grenades
Elites: Techamarine, Servo Skull, Warding Stave, Rad Grenades, Psychotroke Grenades
Troops: Purifiers X 9, Psycannon X 2, Warding Stave X 1, Halberds X 5, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psybolt, Rhino
Troops: Purifiers X 9, Psycannon X 2, Warding Stave X 1, Halberds X 5, Daemon Hammer X 1, Psybolt, Rhino
Troops: Purifiers X 5, Psycannon, Daemon Hammer, Razorback, Psybolt

Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

Heavy: Dreadnought, TWL Autocannon X 2, Psybolt

Basically I am going for a massed - I don't run away army. that way one of my purifiers squads can jump out, lay on an objective that is in some ruins for a 2+ cover save. Not to shabby. I got 12 TWL BS 4 missiles, 4 TWL BS 5 Missiles, an unlimited range blast, 5 MM, 2 Lascannons and a crap ton of anti infantry firepower if need be. Plus the Purifiers with two Warding Staves will be annoying to deal with.

I went without a Librarian as everyone and their momma is going to be packing anti psyker stuff and I just want to be like meh - my anti psyker is -4 when you target something of mine. That is pretty spicy and I don't need to worry about rolling "bad" to try and stop something. Just roll average man - as that will fail hahaha.

Plus I need to draw on a bag for some Magic cards. Woohoo! Most likely a busy as hell week. Here is hoping I can make it out to Schlitterbahn this Thursday. Will see how it rolls for the goat in some water and fun. If not Thursday I might end up some other Water Park in town that is cheaper. So will see. I just want to go on slides damnit. See my tubby Goat Ass shooting down water slides to his impending doom! DOOM!

Saw Harry Potter - it was good. They did a great job with it and I am happy with how it ended. Good times indeed. Friday is Captain America and I am excited about that one. Something about it just screams - FU Indiana Jones - that last movie sucked so here is a shield in the kachigger.

Alright - some minis and I am out.
