Ok then...

Sunday was a blast...went through 5 games myself...and I either made it to the end and forced a draw...or Flat out won...haha

Final game I uses Vulkan himself...with a 2+ armour save and a 3+ invulv save...(used a proxy not the real model) and he went toe to toe with a Deamon Prince and 5 Emperor's Children (they charged by the way...) went three rounds with them all...put two wounds on the Deamon Prince...and killed 3 Emperor's Children before the Deamon Prince made me take enough 3+ invulv saves...and enough 2+ armour saves from the other 2 Emperors Children...My three wounds really helped a lot here with his relic blade...to bad it is a two handed weapon as with a Bolt Pistol I would have had 4 base attacks...haha

Had my Brother use the Sons of Baal army after I used them once...I won...he got two Draws...which were my two Draws...one was when I was using Vulkan...it was 2-2...

Had a blast none the less and I might be doing more Vulkan armies even more now...haha

Until later everyone...

I was Thinking...

and I got a headache for it too...haha

But seriously...I prefer to play a 1250 game...I enjoy it as I have multiple units to use and so on and so forth...but lately it has been 500-750 games...tried out the Sons of Baal and I did OK with them...but certain units flat out kill them in the smaller games...

-Deamonettes...and Noise Marines to name the two I play the most...that I5+ really puts a hurting on my marines...so I need something to counter that...

So I am putting together a new 500 point list...

Captain w/Power Sword
10 Man Tact Squad w/HB and Flamer
5 Man Tact Squad
5 Man Vanguard Squad...or two Land Speeders that swap out the HB for a MM and then buy another HB making it 5 points cheaper...maybe a Melta Bomb on the Captain...

---------------------------------------------

Also I am probably going to throw together a small Salamander Army together as I just got done reading the Salamander Novel...

Maybe get the Forgefather when he is released and paint him all green and what not...maybe a nice 1250 list or so would do them justice...

Forgefather Vulkan He'Stan - 190 pts
8 Man Assault Terminator Squad 4 TH/SS and 4 TLC's - 320 pts
10 Man Tact Squad w/MM and Flamer Serge w/PW & Teleport Homer plus Rhino - 235 pts
10 Man Tact Squad w/HB and Flamer Serge w/PW & Teleport Homer plus Rhino - 235 pts
5 Man Honour Guard w/Razorback w/TwinLinked LC, Storm Bolter - 270 pts

That should put a hurting on a lot of things...the Homers allow the Terminators to drop in without scattering and the Honour Guard go in with Vulkan to put a shinney blade where the sun don't shine...haha...on top of that pretty much every weapon besides the TLC's, Bolters and Lascannons are either Master Crafted or twin-linked as well...making it hurt even more then...haha also this makes it so the only ones walking are the Terminators...
