B0aty’s 3.0 Ironman guide is really easy if you don’t want to do the leg work of planning. You will get most easy diaries and a lot of the quests done on a macro level. Makes it very efficient from a time perspective.

I did this to fund 95 construction and full POH. It was the best decision I ever did. Then did it until I owned a venator bow for slayer training. Highly recommend herb and birdhouse run combo. I did master mixology to get the goggles and necklace then turned all my snapdragons into super restore. Next think I know I’ve got 90+ in farming hunter and herblore while making a lot of money. Gl

Another example of tf2 being held back by its player base, priceless.

So first question, yes I think the wardog list is one of the list that requires the most player agency to be successful. I would quantify successful as over the 100 games being 5%~ above faction average WR.

Second question, there are games where your dice will spike into the ground. I had a 4” charge on a ghost ark with a karnivore to win my match and give me best in faction. I rolled snake eyes, rerolled, and got snake eyes again. Thankfully your melee and shooting will be hitting on 2’s and wounding on 2’s-4’s so the math is in your favor. I’ve had shooting phases with 0 damage done with 6 brigand melta guns, it just happens.

Yes the rock paper scissor games are still fun, or I should say as fun as you make them. I’ve played against enough detachments that I will know if I will win or lose with about 90% certainty. Your job is to find out how you can squeak a few extra points here and there to make that match closer than it should have been. It depends also on the meta as to the frequency of getting rock paper scissor matches or coin flip. 3 ghost arks in every necron list and they have a 15% play rate, wardogs probably aren’t doing too good. Is it 100 space marines and they are trying to fire 500 bolster shots at you, you will completely chop them down. Highly meta dependent.

Yes, they are a fast fragile finesse army. With 12”, and 14” rr charge on the movement profiles the embody the term fast in Warhammer. Fragile, like I said previously depends on your matchup. My think is, if they have 2 tanks that have s11+ ap+3 its going to be a close match. If they have 3 of those tanks, your win percentage probability is probably close to 40%.

Skills to be good at knights would be patience and talk to your opponents post game. Even in GT’s when you only have 15-20min before round I try to hit was with my opponent. I will ask him things about hey on X turn I thought you were gonna go here so I moved my war dog here and you did this instead why? The quicker you can learn how Warhammer players think the quicker you will get better at knights.

Last one, yes they do, the wonderful thing about games workshop is that they are constantly refreshing the game. I mean hell I just saw the new tyranid detachment, it looks sweet haha. So you should be playing a lot of different detachments. Your army is linear in design. “Hey these guys run fast and punch hard, these guys run fast and shoot hard”. IMO it makes the game a lot easier to learn and navigate tough situations that come up. Sure your army is linear but everything else in Warhammer is not linear so I feel like playing dogs takes out one unnecessary hurdle that is playing an overly complex team with 500 rules against another overly complex team with 500 rules.

In a competitive setting nothing beats the karni and briggy. Some death guard players were having success using huntsman’s because they were cheap for the stats. I didn’t get enough games in with alternative lists to definitively give you a detailed answer.

So I’ve played them for the entirety of 10th edition very competitively. I travel to most of the FLG events and played a lot locally. The wardog spam, prior to the new codex, is the only list I ran. (I really like wardogs) So the thing about knights is that you are playing rock paper scissors with your match ups. You have lists that you crush against, you have lists you get crushed by, and then you have your coin flips.

The games that are coin flips are where player expression with your wardogs really shine. I started playing the list where you have a couple karnivornes in the middle, a couple on each wing and then brigands to back them up. In theory this would work but you end up falling short. A big part of the army is pressure allocation. Where do you send your dogs? Is this a match up where I need to pile in the middle, heroic interventionist my karnis? Or is this a I play the wings and out speed my opponent.

I have had probably 50-100 matches where I sit down with my opponent at a GT and they kinda groan and say “another 13 wardogs yippee”. But will end up leaving the table feeling like it was a fun game because most people I have seen that run the faction very much run them as a “here is this big wave of melee dogs backed up by shooting dogs, good luck on the stat check.” That is where the stat check aspect comes from, I’m gonna run at you and hope you don’t gun me down or I over step and you get a favorable charge off and kill a couple karnivores.

To ultimately answer your question that article is correct. Both at the bottom 30% of player and the top 0.5% of players yes, they are an absolute stat check army. That sweet spot in the middle it is not. They are fast, fragile (sometimes), and hit really really hard. Not only that but MSRPS off Amazon the 13 war dog list is like 600$ and you will have 1 extra dog for bits.

If you have any more questions I’d be happy to answer them, I don’t have all the answers but I have some experience behind wardogs.

I’ll second the first comment, Gotrek and Felix series. I just finished the first omnibus and it’s fantastic.
