1500 Chaos Marines- White Tempests "new"

Postby Antubis » Mon Feb 18, 2008 4:22 pm

Here is the latest incarnation of my White Tempests army, which if I get finished you may meet at our weekend.
As before the Biker Sorcerer goes tank hunting while the Sons, now with Rhino, move up to summon daemons and take on any MEQ's. The Termie's and Oblit's Deep Strike on the best Icon, the Noise Marines deal with GEQ's and finally the Prince helps with ether tanks or close combat.
One question I do have is which is better: Prince with WoC and Biker with GoC or Prince with GoC and Biker with WoC?

I would guess that wind of chaos is better on the bike, if he's charging into units hes more likely to be swamped (lower WS etc) and so will want to have substantially weakened any large squad he ends up going into.
Where as the DP with GOC could be quite fun in CC outnumbered and swamped cos then you get more chances in the game to use GOC.

That said I still get scared by how much you put into those guys (my cheesefesty ways say primary purpose expensive secondary purpose should be cheap to neglibigble)
I'm really rubbish with slannesh.. but I've read and seen a lot of games where folks have said they should either be CCW and cheap or shooty and expensive never both..My theoryhammeryness probably agrees.
If you saved some points you could do some optimising (e.g. 10 man 1kson or 8 demons (although I'm still not sold on them..see tims drawing for why 8 is a good number) http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f20/l ... moning.jpg

Have you been keeping up with the sons thread on seer, there has been some interesting discussion about 14man (which I'm not keen on and 6 man.. which has suddenly become a firm favorite of mine)
I'm taking my 1500 to 1850 list (as described over last few pages) to this summer..can you believe some folks here have never played against tzeentch 8O ..yours if it remains the same will of course be a lot more fluffy :D
2 Dust brothers in the same place at the same time.. you know it will form a warp rift :lol:

Thank for the input, I normally play for fun rather than to win, so far I have played three games (in total) and in all three the games ended with all of my army dead! But that was before the new codex.:wink:

As for a warp rift I have a Inquisitor Unbound Daemonhost on order from the U.S. which should make a excellent Generic Greater Daemon.

Have a look.

I think its someones sig over at seer- the reason to play a game is to have fun, the objective of the game is to win. (both criteria must be attempted to some extent).
I've played somewhere in the region of 30-40 games with the new codex most losses (darned evil codex).. but I've started to get how the chaos codex plays.(and I've given in to the push of oblits etc :lol: )
Don't let me corrupt your standards though. :D ..
Look forward to seeing it in action. (thats a scary model, pretty though)
