I'm off to the Pale to see this lot. I've got clothes, beer and just enough money for food and transport. No camera though, as I fully expect to be getting smashed about in a pit.
I'll have game 5 from Warpcon up in a few days (Fateweaver makes an appearance) while I've got something in mind for Wolf Scouts.
Until then, auf wiedersehen.
This here is primarily a 40k blog focusing on the Irish tournament scene with some occasional comments on games and armies including the ETC. There might also be the odd bit of scathing, witty commentary. There are no Wolves or Bears in Ireland, as they were all hunted into extinction by the Wolfhound. That effectiveness is something to emulate right there.

Decisions decisions.
I've been looking to change the list around for a while now as there was something nagging me for a while but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I think I've found out what it is: Melta. With 5th ed being the Mech is king edition anything that gives you a boost to damaging vehicles when you direct fire at them has got to be swarming all over the place. Its absence is one of the reasons why Orks are seen by many as crap.
My main problem has been how to get over Melta weaponry's relatively short range with the Wolves as people are already fairly hesitant to get into that short-to-mid ranges where the Sons of Fenris excel. There's also the issue of them not having the reliability that Marines with Vulkan do so I'll just have to get more of them to make up for this. So in short, I need to get them across the board quickly and have lots of them to wreck tanks so my men can either rush the occupants or get away.
