1750 "Extra Crispy" Tourney Army
Here is the 1750 list that I took to a local tournament recently. The photos aren't the best, I took them the day of the tourney and it was a bit cloudy outside
Anyway the army was a TON of fun to play. The Heavy Flamer's proved to be quite useful and were definitely something that people were not sure how to react too. I had the best finish I have had since I started playing 40k a year ago, 6th out of 80+ players!
The FOC restrictions made for some creative list building, and ultimately the Immolator Spam template the Kirby over at 3++ came up with was the starting point that I used for this army.
The models are not painted in the traditional Blood Angel manner, this is my DIY successor chapter, "Sanguine Templar's" I really like the look of SM's done up "Black Templar" style, but I also like the BA rules....so wala!!! Sanguine Templar's
Here is a break down of the list that I took;
HQ

-Fear the Darkness

One thing that this army proved to provide was target frustration for my opponent, where do you start? What do you kill first? In addition to a great finish, I also took "Best Painted Army" and the "Players Choice" award!

Hey redfinger you got a nice army there.Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteEdit:I really like this army selection. It definitely seems to have the "Wait. What should I shoot first" for the opponents. I also love the paint job. Keep up the awesome work.
