Budget: Ashiok's Avengers

Thanks G or the suggestion!

I replaced force spike with it, so now this is legal in modern.

Thank you.

Hmm.... what do you have in mind?

Well curiosity would go well with your cipher cards.

Thank you for the excellent suggestion. +1 for you!

I would love it, but this is budget. That's a great suggestion though!

.... I didn't call this deck ... oh the tag! Sorry about that, I'll change that right away!

I was refering more to you calling Ashiok the Dimir planeswalker...
You can still call it a Dimir deck because half the deck is Dimir cards

Wait ... he is not? Wow, thanks for letting me know! I would have never guessed from his abilities.

She is very deceptive like that. Those abilities work really well in Dimir decks, but she's from Theros

Wow ... so is Ral Zarek the only guild Planeswalker?

Yup. Damn shame

Well ... Gideon knew Aurelia and practiced in the Boros army ...

I just call cards by Their Guild colors

He also just works with the whole Boros strategy. But that's the storyline, and who plays based on that...

The duel decks?

...
I meant "real" decks. The Duel decks are more or less a gymic for casual play, you buy it with one of your mates and each take a deck to occasionally verse each other with

True. I think that if you want a storyline in your game, you should go play warhammer or something.

Already done.

I salute you sir. 07

I play 40K Necrons, what do you play?

Imperial Gua - ahem, I mean Astra Militarum.

Squishy thingies.
All they have is a pillow and a flashlight

Say that to my Pask-in-a-Punisher or Vendetta.

And they also have cardboard for armor and an extra large wheelbarrow to carry their brazen balls into battle.

I MELT DA PUNY TANKS
And to think I almost played Space Marines. Now I am immortal and can climb stairs

Immortal eh? Deathstrike missile disagrees (if it can even go off properly!) ;p

Reanimation Protocol: The model stays in play instead of being removed as a casualty on a roll of 5+
Resurrection Orb: Reanimation Protocol rolls now require a roll of 4+
Ever-Living: Can activate Reanimation Protocol even if the model is not part of a squad

Long story short: You kill me, I reform and kill you

I've seen it in action ... no other army can walk up to a mech guard gun line and win (they also had a Lich Lord and cover-giving infantry out front).

The Necrons were slaugtered, but the scarab swarms behind them connected, shredding the guy's vehicles. It wasn't pretty. Oh, and his Lich Lord revived 4 times. Damn necrons.

Lich Lord? There are Lychguard and Lords, but no Lich Lord
Never heard of it. Still, they can be amazing. I've seen a Necron Vs. IG player. In the end, I think there was only 1 tank left of the 5 because of the Scarabs. The Necron player just walked and annihilated the IG

Those scarabs are so innocent ... very few players who have not gone up against them recognize tgat tgey are some of the best anti-armor in the game.

Sorry I meant Lord. He had 2 Royal Courts, so 2 solar flares ... you get the idea.

And Soren, here's my squishy army if you want to look at it:


Rain of Steel (2000/2000pt.) Rain unstoppable amounts of firepower upon your foes. For the God-Emperor!

Works really well. Versed Tau, Chaos Marines, Space Marines, Tyranids and IG. Space Wolves was the hardest challenge though

Oh my that looks nasty. Which strata of guard did you face; mech or blob?

I don't play 1000 very much .... my group plays either 600 or 2000.

Generally, I find that running mech guard (hiding squishy troops in Chimeras) and shooting at the scarab swarms first works pretty well.

Yeah. It does. As for the strata, I wouldn't know. It was the guy's first time playing and the list was made by someone else

Tsk, tsk ... Pleasure talking with you about Warhammer 40K. Too bad we can't fight. In all my time in 40k, I've only played against Necrons once or twice.

Where the bloody hell are you in the world?

Seattle. Default season: autumn.

go seahawks!!!!

Well, shit. Too bad I can't fly half way across the planet for a game of 40K

Let me guess ... Australia?

Oh well. I am sort of relieved. SOP for Necrons is shoot the Scarab Swarms, then kill the Lord with the Resurrection Orb before he steamrolls you.

And if you have trouble with Spacewolves, I know your pain. Inquisition can shut them down though.
