if your oven doesn't have temp controlled broil setting
Thinking about it, I don't think mine does actually. Could I still boil them for 12, and then throw them in the oven at about 400* for 20 minutes and be good to go? ... I like the boiling route only b/c I've boiled chicken recently for my GF and she loved it.

I haven't ever boiled them first, but honestly in order to get the crispiness you're going for, I would think you would overcook them trying to bake them long enough for that. You could experiment, but if you google oven baked wings, I think you'll find that most recommendations do not include a boil.

If you don't have a temp control broiler, I think you risk burning them and I don't think you're going to get an even crispy texture. I'd do them on a rack in a high oven and if you think they're going to be overdone, turn the heat down when you've achieved the desired crispiness. You can also get that crispy texture, then toss in sauce and put them back in the oven on a lower temp to set the sauce a bit, if you like.

I imagine a little higher would be better. That would crisp them up without overcooking the meat. My guess based on some similar experience would be to put them on a rack over a foiled cookie sheet, like Gris said, and put it at 450. Just keep an eye on them as you do it. And I would think tossing them first, baking them to cook in the sauce, then retossing them after would still be the way to go. Just tossing out my ponderings.
