My gaming group has decided that we are going to start playing army levels based off of fully painted units. We are starting at 400 points (combat patrol) because we have some newcomers that don't have a lot and we don't want to beat them down with psychic powers just yet.
I want to make the most out of my painted units. right now I am good through 750 points (i think) with these 2 lists:
400 Points (combat Patrol)
45 - lone wolf w/frastblade
160 - grey hunters w/2 plasma guns
60 - landspeeder w/2 heavy bolters
135 - long fangs w/1 heavy bolter & 4 missle launchers
750 Points (standard)
125 - rune priest w/plasma pistol
160 - grey hunters w/2 plasma guns
250 - blood claws w/power fist, flamer, & meltagun
60 - landspeeder w/2 heavy bolters
155 - long fangs w/1 las cannon & 4 missle launchers
I'm pretty happy with these two lists. i am going for more of a shooty + counter assault list with these guys. where I need help is progressing further. these are my last 2 lists:
1000 points (standard)
125 - rune priest
200 - grey hunters w/Power weapon, 2 plasma guns, plasma pistol, & wolf standard
200 - grey hunters w/Mark of the wulfen, 2 plasma guns, plasma pistol, & wolf standard
250 - blood claws w/power fist, flamer, & meltagun
60 - landspeeder w/2 heavy bolters
155 - long fangs w/1 las cannon & 4 missle launchers
35 - rhino
1500 points (standard)
110 - rune priest w/chooser of the slain
115 - wolf priest w/plasma pistol
105 - dreadnaught
105 - dreadnaught w/multi-melta
200 - grey hunters w/Power weapon, 2 plasma guns, plasma pistol, & wolf standard
200 - grey hunters w/Mark of the wulfen, 2 plasma guns, plasma pistol, & wolf standard
250 - blood claws w/power fist, flamer, & meltagun
60 - landspeeder w/2 heavy bolters
60 - landspeeder w/2 heavy bolters
155 - long fangs w/1 las cannon & 4 missle launchers
70 - 2 rhinos
70 - 2 drop pods
now I am wondering if mabe i could be spending my points better on something other than the dreds and the extra land speeder. also would it be better to add the 2nd grey hunters pack at 1500 instead of at 1000 points? men are not an issue. i have plenty for more troops, scouts, or wolf gaurd. i am limited to 3 dreds 3 landspeeders 6 rhino chasies, and one leman russ that has been converted to a TL las pred w/HB sponsens.
remember that i im trying to ramp up a single force with this. also, iff you think that something may be added to early (like to my 750 list) let me know and i can change that around too. I would appreciate any advice you guys could give me.
