Potential Prairie Con List

http://prairiecon.com/premiumevents.php

Composition rules are there. I asked if Dedicated Transports count towards Troops choice expenditure, if they do, I'll play this 11/15 list... and smash face doing it.

Destroyer Lord w\ MSS, Orb, 2+ 190
Destroyer Lord w\ MSS, 2+ 160

Triarch Stalker w\ Heat Ray 150
Triarch Stalker w\ Heat Ray 150

10xWarriors in a Ghost Ark 245
10xWarriors in a Ghost Ark 245

2xWraiths with Whip Coils 90

Annihilation Barge w\ Tesla 90
Annihilation Barge w\ Tesla 90
Annihilation Barge w\ Guass 90

1500pts... who needs scoring when you table your opponent.

BAM! 11/15

Prizes will be awarded for best general, best overall and best sportsman.
In the case of a tie, kill points will be used to decide the winner.

Ah the old "wall of AV13" spam. To quote South Park "your tears or ultimate sorrow are so sweet, so sweet".

wtf is a named character? special characters? like kharn and stuff?

not sure what they are getting after, a lot of the most powerful HQ's out there are just generic choices given certain wargear.

also, -2 if named character changes FOC... so a nurgle fisty-Claw lord on a bike is ok, but Typhus is bad?? I'll tell you which one i care about more.

just seems weird.

Yea the comp for the most part is lame.

About the only change I support is AoC for Eldar DE/Tau.

Yeah.. its bizarre. The organizer wasnt compromising either.. i saw a bit of the conversation on facebok and hes basically.. "Im running it, screw you"

The prob with all of these is they are one size fits all. Noone cares if DA take 3 flyers. You have to have comp specific to each army.

honestly, i'm unsure of any army built from the DA codex can be considered OP. the only dumb things that come to mind are done with allies. so instead of just nerfing eldar allies, i don't understand why the Internets can't get that Battle Brothers is the dumb rule, not what some armies do with it.

Apparently, the transports do count towards troop spending!

Cray-Cray.

I could drop two Annihilation Barges in favour of a Doom Scythe, leaving me with 5 points (ick) and moving my comp up to 14/15.

This is 15/15

Necron Overlord: warscythe; mindshackle scarabs; sempiternal weave; resurrection orb. 160
Destroyer Lord: sempiternal weave. 140

Triarch Stalker 150

10 Necron Warriors 130
• Ghost Ark 115
10 Necron Warriors 130
• Ghost Ark 115
10 Necron Immortals 170
• Night Scythe 100

Annihilation Barge 90
Necron Monolith 200

1,500 points

Lords go with Immortals and don't deploy with the scythe, but walk out of the monolith on turn 1 or 2

You should really find out how many points everything else is. If its 15/150 I would take an 8/15 list to smash.

After a weak performance by
1) Destroyer Lord and 6 Wraiths
and
2) Doomscythe
and
3) Surfboard Lord

I'm back to taking an 11/15 comp and playing the AV13 list. Ghost Arks & Stalkers performed... so did 1 Anni-barge

My thoughts Mark,

1) surprised he didn't do well. normally they are such a good distraction/melee unit they at least do something worthwhile.

2) depends way to much on your opponents list. a lot of lists just go "meh" now-a-days.

3) never seemed a good idea to put your HQ by himself on an open-topped vehicle.

D-Lord & Wraiths: They hosed a Rifleman, then got assaulted by TH&SS termies with a termy cap that killed the D-Lord. All over 'cept the cryin' for them.

So you got assaulted by one of the few "rock" to their "scissor" units and blamed the poor wraiths, cuz them terminators are fast yo
