Stupid lists I am playing or planning



I know I am not the most orthodox list builder. Beyond certain troop stylings, I usually go with some kind of assault or hammer unit, mixed with good ranged fire, and some good anti troop firepower. That mix has kept me in the winners bracket most of the time and lets me play the style of game I enjoy, a take all comers style.

But without further thought, here are my 3 main playing lists (one is in the works). Nids will be coming in a few months, so expect that to pop up here. Now these are not my goofy fun lists. These are what I consider competitive and still being able to give some kind of a game. Really my only desire is to give my opponent a game, whether it is a competitive one or just a fun one. I want to give them something that they can have fun with. Of course I might table you, but still I want to have fun.

All lists will be 2000 points, as that is what we play locally.

Pts - 2000pts

This is a pretty super crazy character list and is not always the most fun to play against. You will have those games where those wolf lords just go all crazy Justin Bieber fan and cut a bitch all over the place. The Saga of Majesty will help keep you on the board in case of a massed anti dog fire hitting the unit. The design is to break away after turn 1 and go about doing some hurting. This list isn't for everyone, but really fits my style. And 30 troopers is pretty sweet.

Heavy list - rating towards the super heavy side.

Ork Robots are Awesome!!!

Pts - 1995pts

Midrange Heavy - Certain armies will just tear it apart. If you plan on playing it remember skating your Wagons around will help out, use them as floating assault bases. The dreads hide behind and give a nice counter assault as well as the Meganobz. Remember, a turn three massed assault is great to help keep you in the winners circle.

Goat Angels/DREADNOUGHTS HOOOO!!!

Troops: Death Company Dreadnought, Blood Talons - 125pts
Troops: Assault Squad X 5 - 100pts
Transport: Razorback, TWL Hvy Flamer - 20pts
Troops: Assault Squad X 5 - 100pts
Transport: Razorback, TWL Lascannon - 55pts
Troops: Assault Squad X 5 - 100pts

FA: Baal Predator, Flamestorm Cannon - 115pts
Heavy: Vindicator, Siege Shield - 155pts
Heavy: Vindicator, Siege Shield - 155pts

Pts 1995pts

Heavy on the Heavy side. There is nothing in this army that you lose and you automatically lose the game. All bits are just cogs in the Mech jerkhole machine. I like the Vindicators as they go on a whole, I go through buildings with my Siege Shield phase towards the end of the game.

The lack of good troops is a problem, but the more I play with Blood Angels the more glass jaw I find them. 2 Long Ranged Lascannons to hopefully deal with any jerks that might be flying around too.

But there you go, 3 current Goatboy lists I play. These are all long the Heavy/Competitive side of things and when I normally play a fun game I don't bring anything like this. I usually try for some goofy stuff and test out different units to see if they might have any chance to make it to the big leagues hah.
