Mosk Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I am currently working out my list for my immolator spam army. I have questions about certain things with addons for squads. For those of you who will ask my list is as followed (very very simplified) 1 Palatine w/book (maybe other shtuff I dunno), bolter and 4 celestian w/ 2 bolters and 2 Meltaguns and 1 celestian Sister Superior with bolter. all mounted in Immolator w/ flamers 3 squads of 4 celestian (2 bolters and 2 meltas) w/ 1 sister superior w/ bolter in immolator w/ flamers 3 Squads of Dominions in Immolator w/ VSS w/ bolter and 2 bolters and 2 meltas/flamers I dk what yet. 3 sqauds of retributures w/ heavy bolters mounted in immolators, 1 w/ HB the others with HF the one with HB will have blessed ammo. I will fill the rest of my army with arbites or Sisters of Battle in rhinos. I have several questions about this army set up. 1.) Should I have every special weapon be meltas? or Flamers? or have a 1:1 ratio of flamers (not including the immolator flamers) and meltas? or some other ratio? 2.) Should I take squads of 5 arbites mounted in vehicles or should i take sisters? 3.) If i take arbites should they be mounted in chimera or rhinos? 4.) Should I have 2 exorcists and drop two immolators? 5.) Should the palatine be a canoness, I think it should be, but not sure? 6.) Please suggest anything else about this list?

Inq. Enmerich Von Vattle Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 How would it look list wise a 1000pt immolator spam list? Its it viable o its to little points to generate such list? Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158655-immolator-spam-thoughts/#findComment-1869906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffersonian000 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I have a 1,000pt build I like with 6 tanks: HQ (183pts) Palatine w/ Bolter 1x Celestian w/ Meltagun 1x Celestian w/ Flamer 3x Celestian w/ Bolter Immolator w/ TL Hvy Flamers, Smoke Elite (149pts) 1x Celestian w/ Meltagun 1x Celestian w/ Flamer 4x Celestian w/ Bolter Immolator w/ TL Hvy Flamers, Smoke Troop (199pts) Vet Superior w/ Bolter Sister w/ Hvy Flamer Sister w/ Meltagun 7x Sister w/ Bolter Rhino w/ SB, Smoke Troop (199pts) Vet Superior w/ Bolter Sister w/ Hvy Flamer Sister w/ Meltagun 7x Sister w/ Bolter Rhino w/ SB, Smoke Heavy (135pts) Exercist w/ nothing added Heavy (135pts) Exercist w/ nothing added Total: 1,000pts Faith: 5 It's an all-comers list; however, I'm not sure how the Immolators will survive without more targets for the enemy to shoot at. SJ Edit: looks like I'm off by 3 points on the HQ, which should be 186pts. I guest you just need to drop a smoke launcher off onr of the Rhinos or Immolators to get 1000pts even with this build.

Spacefrisian Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Maybe Holy Prometheum should be added. Sooner or later one unit is going to fail their moral checks.

Inq. Enmerich Von Vattle Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Is this viable under 1000pts, I see I can have around 9 immolators...?

madtroll Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Maybe Holy Prometheum should be added. Sooner or later one unit is going to fail their moral checks. Yeah i agree. Holy promethium is standard for me when I include an immolator. of course I haven't used one in a long time and never this many in one list.
