Good Morning BNC. Looking at joining a Crusade at my local gaming store and am torn between the following. 50PL to Start the new and exciting Crusade rules. Being a DA player for almost 2 decades here's my ideas stepping into the new era of 9th. List 1: Deathwing Vanguard HQ: 5PL Interrogator Chaplain /w Powerfist and Plasma Pistol Elites: 28PL Deathwing Knights x5: /w Watcher in the dark Deathwing Terminator Squad x5: Sgt PS/SB, 1x Assault Cannon and Chainfist, 3x SB/PF /w Watcher in the dark Dreadnought: Rites of Initiation; DCCW & HF, Multimelta Heavy Support: 17PL Landraider Crusader: Rites of Initiation, SB, Multimelta,Hunter Killer Missile List 2: Tri Wing HQ: 15 PL Captain; Combi-Plasma & Relic Blade Interrogator Chaplain: /w Powerfist and Plasma Pistol Librarian: Force Sword & Plasma Pistol Troops: 10PL Tactical Marines x5: 1x Lascannon, PS/PP Sgt Tactical Marines x5: 1x Plasmacannon, PS/PP Sgt ELITES: 17 PL Venerable Dreadnought: DCCW & HF, Twin Lascannon Deathwing Terminator Squad x5: Sgt PS/SB, 1x Assault Cannon and Chainfist, 3x SB/PF /w Watcher in the dark Fast Attack: 7PL Bike Squad: Sgt /w PS, 1x Plasma gun, 1x Chainsword List 3: Green Armour HQ: 10PL Captain; Combi-Plasma & Relic Blade Interrogator Chaplain: /w Powerfist and Plasma Pistol Troops: 10PL Tactical Marines x5: 1x Plasma Gun, PS/PP Sgt Tactical Marines x5: 1x Plasma Gun, PS/PP Sgt Elites: 9PL Deathwing Terminator Squad x5: Sgt PS/SB, 1x Assault Cannon and Chainfist, 3x SB/PF /w Watcher in the dark Heavy Support:9PL Predator Anhilator: Two Lascannons, SB, HKM Dedicated Transport: 12PL Razorback: Twin Assaultcannon, SB, HKM Razorback: Twin Assaultcannon, SB, HKM ————— I'm throwing them out here as I am torn the route id like to go with. Now, these will be my first games of Crusade play as well as still early play of 9th. Question - Can you spend RP for Character Upgrades before first battle? (Warlord Traits, Warhead, etc) or is it after the battle you can spend RP? Strats List 1: pretty straight forward in terms of using LRC/Knights as a hammer and anvil backed up by the chappy. Dread and Terminators will back up on objectives. An Elite Durable Force is the idea. List 2: adds in the librarian for terromancy and captain for rerolls. Raven wing for speed overall shooting for a balanced approach. List 3: Armoured force running up the board with heavier firing platforms hoping to lay down turn 1 offensive. I can link battle scribe when not on my mobile phone. However Battle scribe dosent have an actual army roster sheet yet.
