Ragnar & His Groupies

Looks cool to me, altough I would try to inlcude Daring Assault Squad.

If you wish you could drop 2x Godwyn Pattern Bolter and 1x IHT for it.

Im also suprised to see the Eager Recruit only once, any reason for that? I love it personally.

4/5

I'll be taking this deck through the ringer later today, see how it plays out and adjust from there.

Eager Beavers are awesome and if I start wishing I had another in my deck or more, I'll toss them in.

Looking forward to your results.

It looks like a very good deck, and i am eager to see your results. I am just sceptical about the Iron Hands Techmarine. usually an 1-off is some pretty powerfull card, which is not essential to your strategy, but it is good to have in one out of 5 games lets say. Do you think Iron hands meets the requirements?

Is it worth having 3 Iron Halo? I know it is a 2 icon shield, but also a relic.

Deck was marvelous. Pilot was not. Don't let pilots drink before flight. Ugh.

Deck performed great and I made some mistakes from having that extra drink next door I shouldn't have had and forgot to trigger some Sentinels and such. Still only fell due to a devastating Doom to Eldar and then a Warpstorm to Chaos. Lost 8 soldiers both games.

I missed not drawing into Eager Recruit. Upon inspection it happened to be missing. What the? Iron Hands was great in blocking a command struggle and I'll probably increase him and decrease something else. Though, I did wish for a Daring Assault Squad to hit for 2 to everyone.

Iron Halo is always great, especially when ECT fetches it for you. I can equip Frostfang or one Halo depending on my needs during the game. It's mainly for the shielding though.

Yeah both Eager Recruit and IH have a good function. Personally though, due to the inclusion of Promotion I feel the SM deck (and thus Ragnar) generally preforms better with a multitude of Eager Recruits.

Nice work! I can only say that if you want to go up in consistent wins it's often better to fill in the deck more with playsets.

Oh I think for Ragnar the White Scars hold more value then BAV's. When Warlords meet, 4+2 = 6 = Ouch.

Tested the cards Know No Fear and Crushing Blow. Wished for Exterminatus.

2x Exterminatus added.

But more importantly how did you like Know No Fear?

Again I have said enough about my gut feel about Crushing Blow (if it simply pinged with Armorbane I would have loved it much more) but I do think if there is a SM warlord able to use KNF it's Ragnar.

Cheers,

Played against Dark Eldar/Eldar. I was excited to amass my armies at the first planet. I took the planet, but then got decimated by Doom when they retreated. This happened twice. Yaarg!

It happens! Altough Know No Fear allows you to play around this a bit better, it isn't a guarantee of course. I'd say try to only thake those planets if they allow you to advance more in the game! The icons arn't half as important as the battle triggers for example.

I'll try adding Know no Fear (: I was actually really close to winning. Poor card draws contributed too.

No worries! Just make sure that not every battle needs all the Sentinels in one place. In many cases you can get a whole lot more out of them when you just pull 1 Sentinel and keep the rest spreaded at planets.
