I am going to play in a 1-day Tournament! Shall I finally taste defeat?!

avatar

Today I go out to Sword and Board hobby shop to play in a 1 day Tournament of Warhammer 40,000!

I seek the taste of defeat! What this means is that I seek to give it my ALL and be defeated by a worthy opponent.

In 10th Edition, I played 2x Leviathan box games and won both, 3x 2000pts Battles and won all three and played an Eternal Carnage game where I used 4,160pts to fight 5,190pts and I won!

I have not lost a game of 10th Edition and I have played 6 games!

In order for me to learn and improve, I need to be put to the test and find an opponent which shall give me a worthy defeat!

Stormwolves assembled for battle!

I am playing my Dinosaur army list, meaning that very little changes. Although there is ONE big change due to the drop of points of units in an army:

2000pts Stormwolves (2000 points)

That's right! If you have not noticed it before, I am fielding TWO Vindicator tanks!

This is because I had exactly 190pts free after the Balance update and Vindicators came down in cost to 190pts!

Why field another one?

This is the Vindicator Belar. The Stormspear. Lion's Bane. The Lychbreaker!

It is a vehicle crewed by a veteran Long Fang driver and gunner and it has destroyed many foes! Notably this year, during 10th Edition alone it has made a Saga for itself by destroying the Primarch Lion El Johnson in a single attack and being a large part in the destruction of one of the toughest infantry units in the game: Necron Lychguard (who were also fully supported).

It is the epitome of an unstoppable force! A Fang in the mouth of the Wolf Morkai!

And why not just play two of them?

Following the tradition of Belar. The other Vindicator is also crewed by Long Fangs. It has no name yet, but it seeks to write its own Saga!

Last night I also did some painting and Assembling modifications! Finally Bjorn has his Helfrost Cannon on him and my Grey Hunters and Blood claws have the correct number and special weapons.

My lift is on its way. Need to go get ready!

Wish me luck!

Cheers!

Good luck ! Are you going to add to the paintwork of the two Vindicators by adding little icons of their kills, so that they carry the story of their sagas on their hulls ?
