Stragint, i didn't use that wolf cape for a reason. It's cool and all, but damn is it huge and it makes them look like a special character. Not a bad thing, I just didn't need one.
Also, Matrias is going to take ALL OF MY MONIES.

The Dread is out the door! Heavy weapons deal pending. If I can ditch the assault marines and land speeders, I'll consider this a win. So far nobody's placed a large enough order to earn a handy-jay.
I just wrote the best mission ever for my local 40k Campaign. EVER.
IMPORTANT: The game board size has expanded to 4x6!
Note the FOC
Force Organization Allowance - 1000 points
HQ = 1
Troops = 2-3
Fast Attack = 1-2
Elites = 0-1
Scoring
Whomever accumulates the most points wins.
Game Board 4x6
Deployment Spearhead
Commander Abilities - Throughout every mission over the course of this league your commanders will have access to special abilities they can use during the game (Your HQ also gets this special ability as long as he is with the squad, no other model/unit can benefit from it other than the original model/unit that received the ability and/or your HQ while joined to the squad), you can only choose 1 of the following:
“I knew where I was going all along!”
You can nominate 1 model/unit to benefit from a +1 to their reserve rolls.
“Run! Run! Run!”
You can nominate 1 model/unit to benefit from the "Fleet" USR. If the unit already has Fleet, they add 2" to their Run distance.
“Shhh! You smell that?”
You can nominate 1 model/unit to be able to benefit from the "Stealth" USR.
Primary Mission: Does this look infected...
Your HQ was maimed by a Slaughterbeast in the previous battle and the wound has become infected by the toxic filth cultivated in the monster’s maw. Unfortunately the only hope for cure lay in the hands of your opponent.
Infected: Beginning on turn one and at the start of each player turn roll a D6. On a 6 result your HQ takes a wound. Add +1 to the die result for each turn. (Example: On turn two you will take a wound on a 5+, on turn three a 4+). Armour saves and Invulnerable saves may not be taken for wounds caused in this manner; however you may take feel no pain saves.
Heroic Resilience: The result of a one on the infected roll always prevents a wound.
I’ll suck the poison out sir!, Like hell you will!: Nominate one model from your fast attack choice to become a Medic. This model gains the Independent Character Special Rule. This model is not deployed normally, it cannot start the game attached to a unit or embarked in a transport, and it must enter the game from the board edge at the start of turn 1. Furthermore the model cannot benefit from League Commander Abilities.
Medic: This model gains the following rules for the duration of the game:
We Can Rebuild Him: This model and any in a unit it joins benefit from the Feel no Pain Special Rule
We Have the Technology: The model benefits from the Hit and Run Special Rule.
Better, Stronger, Faster: This model gains the following profile, +1 Weapon Skill, +1 Strength, +1 Initiative, and +1 Wound
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na The Medic is Fearless and Immune to Instant Death.
Primary Objective: Get that Basterd!
Assassinate the enemy Medic. Steal the nano-antibiotics. Save your General. (Note: This is achieved at the moment of Assassination, there is no need to deliver the antidote.)
15pts
Secondary Mission: Forget about me, do your damn jobs!
Seize Ground 3 objectives.
Place one objective in the center of the table, and one in the center of each unoccupied table quarter.
10pts
Tertiary Objective: Hang on Sir.
Your HQ must survive. Both players can achieve this objective.
5 pts.
Lasting Effects:
If your HQ succumbs to his infection he will suffer from Convalescence.
For the duration of the next League game modify an HQ’s profile by -1 WS, -1T, -1W, and -1 Attack. (Note: This will apply to a single HQ choice you bring, regardless of any FOC changes you make. You sneaks.)

Yeah, guard are kind of fucked in the a. I'm working up rules for vehicles now.

Yeah, well the Medic is meant to basically replace the HQ as a badass in this game. I had to open it up to troops choices though. Fast attack is mandatory, but a few are playing Land Speeders and Vendettas. So they had no choice.

The highlight was the final 7 on 7 team match. My team consisted of two Swarm Lords, Abaddon, Gaghzkull, a GK Librarian, my Ravager, and a Stormraven.
Their team was chock full of psykers: Fateweaver, Eldrad, Zogwort, a Lone Wolf with hammer and storm shield, a GK Venerable Dread, and two Marneus Calgars, who were always together, always rolled the same result for running, and were just a fabulous pair of twins.

Any idea when a new eldar codex and models come out? Is that list any good still? And what sort of damage to my wallet is this going to do to get in about 4000 points + apoc models.
Thanks!
I should go put some finecast minis on the balcony and see what happens

You can theorycraft all you want, but at the end of the day you just gotta play the damn thing to see how it works.
You've got a model that's pretty close to Lukas. He's the metal captain in a cape with two wolf claws. You can proxy him, or even take off a claw. He's definately got lukas's head and backpack.

What the fuck? People live in places that hot?
It was 113 F while my girlfriend and I were driving around yesterday afternoon.
Keep in mind I live in downtown Toronto. That's in Canada. I'm probably farther north than you if you're in the US.
We're going through a heatwave right now so it was pushing 50°C with humidex today But it was 'actually' only 37°. We normally get temps in the mid 30's (low 40's with humidex) in the summer.
Sounds like the summer we just went through. Our flat was hitting the high 40's for about 2 weeks. Almost suffocatingly hot. That weather absolutely sucks, you never have energy to do anything other than sit there and wish it wasn't so fucking hot.
I think one of the things I have the most issues with are trying to decide where to drop my drop pod on turn one. I gotta figure my tactics out.
Lalalalala I CAN'T HEAR YOU
I'm goofing off with a list right now but so far it isn't looking to spiffy. I might drop my Long Fang packs from two to one though I really don't want to.
Also I've said it before, but I'll say it again: Long Fangs are a crutch. Open up that heavy support slot, or use your FA options instead.
Man. Not that I can give advice. I just did a BoLs Battle report against JWolf, possibly the best 40k player in the universe, and if you disagree you're just an idiot that doesn't know shit about shit. : ) (Seriously, the man is a fucking Warhams god. He's so fun to play against though, and in Austin, I've got a 0-1-2 record against him.)
I drew him for the battle report, so I decided to play for the Lulz. But you can't even tell. I just get straight up tabled. I shit you not, we rolled to turn 7. I had a single Loota left on the board. 1. Loota.

Also got a Hive Guard in pewter. Feelin pretty good about it.
XBL: DexHavok
My lists always look the same at 2000 points, three Grey Hunter packs with Rhinos, two Long Fang packs, a Wolf Guard pack with 4/5 Terminators and 3 Wolf Guard in Power Armour to go with the Grey Hunters. I want to use Thunderwolves but all the stuff I already run feels essential.
This is what I'm looking at right now. I'm not feeling the Terminators, I might try to mess with them a little.
