Website Under Construction

Nothing to report - the website is under construction now, so I'm fitting that between work and the start of school.

www.strictlyaverage.com


As a curiosity, one of the families we've worked with at the agency (Inheritance Adoptions) was selected by Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.  The reveal was last week, and the episode will air in about 8 weeks, but these last two weeks were crazy.

Just to fit some content in here, I have a tournament this weekend at the FLGS.  Hosted by Galaxy Comics and judged by the Master Manipulator (every store needs one), there will be numerous armies slugging it out, including my Daemons, Evil Homer's Guard, Big Whit's Chaos Space Marines, Gauthic's Dark Eldar, the Original Tony's White Scars, the Other Other Tony's Tau.., and so on and so on.

I'm still working out a list, and I'll admit I'm a bit directionless.  Do I include the Blood Crushers, even though I don't much like using them?  How about the 3 DP's of Tzeentch, which I enjoyed but didn't lead me to any brilliant wins?

I've had a vague plan to build toward, testing some ideas on the way.  Once idea I've put a lot of hope in was the Herald on Jugger in a unit of Bloodletters... and while it's been okay, it hasn't exactly run off.  I may have to shake things up and try something new.

Or should I?  You see, in the past it's been that thinking that's screwed me, where I end up taking something unfamiliar, something I have no experience using, and it usually bites me in the ass.

So in short, I'm going to run a variation of the lists I've used.  I don't think it will be brilliant but my goal is to represent myself well at this level - not necessarily win the whole thing.

That comes later.  I'm out - Brent

  1. I have changed my chaos space marine list around. It just wasn't working with only 2 scoring units, so I've added 8 lesser demons to grab an objective. Dropped the berserkers for death guard(can actually scoot and shoot now), Dropped 2 oblits for 5 termies, and kept the dreadnought.
    I have gotten to play test my list twice with some different missions against Mike's space wolves and holy crap has it worked out. I'm hoping that come tournament time it will still stand up to the other armies.

  2. I too am contemplating changes...I put a 5 scoring unit list together this morning.

    Of course I won't play it and probably won't change my list for the tournament. I still have an extra day to dither about it though.

    I kinda feel like everyone else is changing theirs so I should change mine. Maybe not.

  3. Well you have had success with your list and I have not 2 losses 1 draw made me re-think my plan. You had 2 wins and 1 draw, not much room for change. Did you see JWolf's battle report on bals were he had a blob unit full of power weapons? Sounds like a good way to hold and defend an objective. I don't know much about the guard codex, but it seems like a good idea. It maybe to much point wise to try with your list.
