Logan's Hero's Hobby update

Over the last week I have made some decent progress on the Wolf Guard Terminators I will be using for my 1500 point Logan army . Here are a few quick pics of them.

So far these guys have been a lot of fun to both build and paint. I am very excited at how the Frost Axe is turning out, as this is my first forte' into layered blending. I am looking forward to a game with this list, and Krox, from Mis-modeled Firewarrior, has requested a game so he can formulate a game plan vs drop pods and the famed Fritz Null-Deployment. Between Krox and myself there should be a good breakdown of both how the drop pods worked and his tactics to counter the pods.

1500pt Logan's Heros list v1.0




I'm in the process of coming up with my 1500 point Logan Grimnar army list. The basic concept of this list is like any other Logan army, Hit 'em hard and fast. Here is the list as it stands...



HQ: Logan Grimnar, The Great Wolf

Troops: Wolf Guard Pack 
      1 Wolf Guard in Power Armour Close Combat Weapon; Combi-Meltagun
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Frost Weapon; Assault Cannon
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Thunder Hammer; Storm Shield
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Shield; Frost Weapon
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Wolf Claw; Wolf Claw
      1 Drop Pod

Troops: Wolf Guard Pack
       1 Wolf Guard in Power Armour Close Combat Weapon; Combi-Meltagun
       1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Bolter; Frost Weapon; Cyclone Missile Launcher
       1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Shield; Thunder Hammer
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Combi-Meltagun; Frost Weapon
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Shield; Wolf Claw
      1 Drop Pod

Troops: Wolf Guard Pack
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Wolf Claw; Wolf Claw
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Bolter; Power Fist
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Storm Shield; Chain Fist
      1 Wolf Guard in Terminator Armour Thunder Hammer; Storm Shield
      1 Drop Pod

Troops: Grey Hunters Pack
   9 Grey Hunters Pack  Wolf Standard; Bolt Pistol x9; Bolter x8; Close Combat Weapon x9; Meltagun
    1 Rhino


Troops: Grey Hunters Pack
   9 Grey Hunters Pack  Wolf Standard; Bolt Pistol x9; Bolter x8; Close Combat Weapon x9; Meltagun
    1 Rhino



 The way I am trying to build each unit is so that they have a good mix of weapons to deal with anything that comes at them. I am also mixing in Storm Shields to help each unit survive. The Power Armored Wolf Guard split off and join the Grey Hunters, and Logan will likely join either the Cyclone Missile toting squad or the Assault Cannon squad to give them Tank Hunters the turn they drop.The Rhinos will race forward and try to get to the enemy and douse their rides with melta-goodness.


This is a very rough draft, and will likely change by the time it hits the table. Is there anything I should try to add or change?

Hobby update!

I have recently decided to open up the forges of Asaheim, and start building my Riflemen Dread. I used an ebay plastic dread, formerly with Twin-Lascannon / DCCW as the basis of the minor conversion. I had a spare Quad Gun model from the Ageis Defence Line Kit, so that made a perfect victim foe the conversion. I'm sorry to say that I did not take any pics during the build, so all you will get is the finished product.

I will post some more later, once I have some paint done.
