RE: Caledonian 2014 40k Tournament - Nick1988 - 22-12-2013
Dammit! Guess its fair............ But still!
RE: Caledonian 2014 40k Tournament - Embolden - 22-12-2013
PS
Also cannot cast powers on the unit either I assume :p
And yep it is now Chris, not really illegal at the time we played it, I knew it was a grey area... I was trying to exploit it as well.
My inquisitor will be a 34pt tax to stop scout moving armies.
RE: Caledonian 2014 40k Tournament - Embolden - 22-12-2013

Oh dear, that is cheap and might scupper my black knight list...means the opponent gets an extra turn of shooting in.
RE: Caledonian 2014 40k Tournament - Nick1988 - 22-12-2013
Right.......... I think I've decided! It's basically my winter warm up list with 1 less centurion and 5 less marines with tigirius replacing the bog standard Libby. Means I get a wide choice of powers (which I really need to study hard) and the advantage of re rolling my reserves so my stormravens come in when I want them and my kroot can stay off the board a while longer so they don't get killed by a large stick!

Troop2: 10 Kroot (60) Kroot Hound (5) = [65]
Troop3: 10 Kroot (60) Kroot Hound (5) = [65]
Fast1: 4 Pathfinders (44) Additional 3 Pathfinders (33) = [77]

Total [1848]
RE: Caledonian 2014 40k Tournament - Nick1988 - 23-12-2013
I think we have the same worry..... Im basically relying on calgar becoming scoring with his warlord trait and ALWAYS being ahead on killpoints. Kinda risky but i still think id have a shot. Im leaning towards list two although it involves much more painting than list 1 lol
