Current Army List (#2)

No posts for a while, so I thought I'd post up the list I used this week.

I tend to write a new one every week, to prevent boredom and keep things dynamic.

HQ:

Vulkan He'stan

Master of the Forge w/ Conversion beamer.

4 Servitors: 2 x Meltas and 2x Servo Arms. (Meat shield for the Master basically!)

TROOPS:

Tactical Squad: Sarg with Bolter/Chainsword - Missile Launcher/Flamer

Tactical Squad: Fist/Plasma Gun/Multi-Melta

Tactical Squad: Fist/Plasma Cannon/Plasma Gun

10 Scouts: 4 x Bolters/4x Sniper Rifles/ 1x Missile Launcher
-Scout Sargeant Tellion.

ELITES:

10 Sternguard: Heavy Flamer/2x Combi Weapons/Fist
-Drop Pod w/Deathwind Launcher

This one worked out to be very infantry heavy. It utterly wiped the floor with some Dark Angels, so it can't be all that bad!

For a 2k game against some flesh tearers next week (if Tom ever manages to remember his damn army!) I'll probably run the same list with some Assault Termies (Hammers galore obviously), a thundefire cannon (I used this last week, and it turned out to be the single most rude ranged weapon I'd ever tried out... pretty much wiping out units every turn) and possibly a redeemer. Salamanders need arson after all...

The Debut

Welcome to my blog!

A little background:

I'm Sam B, from Cardiff in the UK. I've started this blog to (hopefully) showcase some of the 40k/GW stuff I've been doing or will be doing.

I got into the hobby for the second time around 3 years ago thanks to the phenomenon only known as DoW, after a damn long hiatus since a short time playing during 2nd Edition.

Currently, I'm working on the Salamanders First - The Fire Drakes - and Second companies. I'm using Deathwing rules for the first and currently, also Codex: Dark Angels for the second. However, with Codex: Space Marines just around the corner - which allegedly features a lot of love for the Salamanders - I'll be changing to that just as soon as I get my filthy mits on it.

Other armies I've been working on, and will probably continue to do so in the future are; Saim Hann Eldar, Blackhearts Red Corsairs, Bad Moon Orks, the Vostroyan Firstborn 7th, Vampire Counts and whichever fantasy army nexts take my fancy, likely Wood Elves or Dark Elves.

Hopefully I'll have some actual content soon!
