Njal without Terminator armor, eh? Very Kool! Did you ever find him wanting of an invul save?
So, Chain Lightning is a Fantastic power. That's great to hear!

Oh yeah, he totally needs the 4+ save. In my last game last night, he lost both of his wounds to Perils.
The 4+ Invulnerable is a MUST have with him.

You jerks with your shiny new codex... us mortals have to wait until the 3rd!
So I guess the leafblower is not the deadliest possible army after all, eh? ;)

Nick beat me in that game, but it was very close and a real bloody nose for him. My list isn't that strong against an all mechanized army. Yet.
I'm intentionally stacking my games against really tough players with really tough lists (that they are comfortable with). I figure if I can play Jwolf or Nick and do well with a list I've never used (as a matter of fact, I built it 10 minutes before my game with Jwolf), then I've got something to test.
The most important lesson I learned from the three games was that Njal needs Runic Terminator Armor and that he'll be a real terror inside a Land Raider.

I see! I would be interested to see how this list does without the drop pods, grey hunters in rhinos and bloodclaws in a LR with Njal.
Do you run MM dreads?

I'm going to play Njal in a Land Raider next week.
I'm going to be playtesting how JotWW would work if it doesn't require line of sight. I'm going to put 4 Rune Priests in a Land Raider (each with JotWW). That will let me use 4 JotWW without getting needing a firing port -- and I can put each of the 4 lines in the exact same place.
It's going to be like the General Greivous Land Raider, lol!

Yeah, those were all MM dreads -- sorry, missed the question. They worked okay, but I think that 2 Venerables would've been better (it would've been easier to keep in Storm Caller range).
