Sanguinor lists?

Recommended Posts

I wouldn't try fielding him at low point games.

The general idea I would suggest when fielding him is a lot of assault marines. Normal assault marines get effectively the biggest increase in power from his boost compared to points spend.

On the other hand they have less access to power weapons/fists then some of the other squads we can field.

 

Since the Sanguinor becomes better when there's a lot of models around him I also suggest running a honour guard with jump packs next to him adding a 6 inch feel no pain/furious charge bubble next to the 6 inch +1 attack bubble.

 

In the end if would end up something like this:

1000 points:

Sanguinor army

 

Sanguinor 275 Points

 

Honour guard

Jump packs

Power weapon

Power fist

Chapter Banner

Total =235 Points

 

Troops:

Assault squad #1

+2 squad members

Power fist

Meltagun

Total =135

 

Troops:

Assault squad #2

+2 squad members

Power fist

Meltagun

Total =135

 

Assault squad #3

+1 squad member

Power weapon

Melta bombs

Meltagun

Total =130 Points

Good list but the chapter banner in that squad is almost redundant. why add 1 normal power weapon attack and 4 normal attacks when for the same 25 points you could do everything better and fix some of your anti hoard problems, simple 1 extra power weapon and 2 flamers is going to do you much better for the same squad. The squad will be better against meq and hoard.

Sanguinor is pretty cool as a force multiplier... but personally I prefer mephiston for the points.

 

I guess sanguinor could be pretty awesome if you built a list around him, hes damn hard to kill. But otherwise he can die by making him make a lot of saves... with T4, hes pretty easy to wound.

I suppose my question, really, is how to build that list around him. Is it an all JP list with plenty of bodies around him for cover? Is it a LR rush that he can hide behind?
