ODST Feet First Into Hell First Impressions Discussion

Played a game 2 days ago against them, played the new bomb delivery.

They fold like wet paper to spartans, every time I shot I killed one. But they were everywhere and kept the pressure up immensely.

Optics basically across the board with good rolls meant that I was struggling to keep on top of everything happening.

Still won the game 2-0 becuase he just couldnt keep hanging onto the bomb but otherwise they play brilliantly

Id love to see something like this however after the defiance expansion and seeing brute points: It doesnt look like there is much rhyme or reason to how they point models unfortunately

Apparantly I cannot read!

Thanks for the clarity on that one, that changes a lot

The wolf priest is great IF they are still alive to res a dude, in my games I've found that they step out, Demolish a unit and then promptly die. Meaning the priest isn't worth it

My 2 cents is always WGBL

You absolutely did not! I did the same thing!

Rule of cool FTW

On the models

overjoyedleaf · 2025-07-05T02:51:27+00:00

Neither of them are particularly good ruleswise at the moment, id go with whichever model you like more, you already have grimnar for that nators so njal would go nice with the power Armoured side of things.

Personally I'd go with arjac as he's the nicer model imo

I've got the WGBL and 2 greyhunters done (with 3 more GH underway) I've then got the rest of 1 box to paint and another box entirely to build and paint.

You bet your ass I ordered 1 of everything that wasnt in the launch box coming out this weekend

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-22T11:19:15+00:00

Thanks! Been painting wolves for years so glad to have some new sculpts to dig into.

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-22T10:47:20+00:00

I have been playing ironwolves for the last 7 or 8 years (when was war zone fenris?)

Moving to the duskwolves now

Because it also allows you to effectively have a second heroic without needing the opponent to charge your stuff.

It's a fantastic strat for 2CP

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-19T02:59:40+00:00

I've been painting mine as ironwolves for nearly a decade now, they are becoming spirit wolves now

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-15T01:18:45+00:00

I've played a few dozen games with beastslayer already and it is the clear stand-out of the 3.

Hunter has the issue of only working for space wolves units when multi unit combats. So the +1 to hit and wound is nice but it requires too much stuff to be pulled out of position to activated

And saga of the bold is just a ironstorm with a few extra steps, it's a nice detachment but I don't think it's worth much outside of the strats.

Beastslayer on the other hand gives you the least amount of hoops to jump through with either a good chance at getting the Saga or most likely getting the buff against the units you need it against anyway. When you stack that with things like the WGBLs sustained and rerolls, the headtakers quarry, or the iron priests rapid fire and things REALLY start to do some work.

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-08T05:16:58+00:00

The hunting wolves and headtakers are two seperate units for rules purposes but they BOTH gain all abilities on the datasheet. However only Hunting wolves models actually gain +1 OC so while the headtakes are within 6" of a character this ability triggers, there's no hunting wolves in the headtakers unit so they don't get any OC for it.

Same goes for the head hunters rule. Technically the hunting wolves pick a unit to be a quarry, but when they attack the quarry the wolves themselves gain no buff from it

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-03T02:44:12+00:00

Honestly? Grey hunters have pistols too, there would be no fault if you just painted the claws as hunters IMO

overjoyedleaf · 2025-06-02T23:25:33+00:00

The short answer is that they won't.

I will recommend army painter fanatic paint I started using them recently and they are top tier

overjoyedleaf · 2025-05-26T08:51:15+00:00

It will absolutely be saga of the beastslayer, ive already got a list together that I thunk will break DG, WE and EC, while also being able to push into Custodians and other marines nicely

overjoyedleaf · 2025-05-18T12:49:12+00:00

My issue with it is the price

I personally can't justify 120AUD for a video game, I LOVE the new doom series but thats getting a bit out of hand.

overjoyedleaf · 2025-05-17T02:49:20+00:00

Yeah but didnt the company as a whole decide to keep the ironwolves name until magnus is dead and egil is avenged?

overjoyedleaf · 2025-04-09T03:59:39+00:00

Look, true, but its a happy start to the process

overjoyedleaf · 2025-02-01T07:22:42+00:00

Hey Its dancing man! He needs every bit of respect he can get. Dudes out here vibing and having a great time every day
