Lord Howland Greywolf Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Ok. These lists are basedon what I will be getting with various orders so modles are at a premium (Incidently if anyone has a spare dauntless class for sale....) First block is for my 750pts list. Amageddon class, Able Gunner. 250pts Powerd ram. Dictator class Void Mother 225pts Powerd ram Luna class Los Fernos 185pts Powerd ram Cobra Squadron Vespa x3 90pts And here's the other half for 1,500pts Emperor class Ramases 420pts Fleet admaral Amaya Shark Aussalt boats. Dauntless class Angelus 110pts Dauntless class Mortus 110pts Firestorm Squadron Arachna x2 80pts and anouther Cobra added to Vespa squadron. Just some thoughts on how this would work. Maby comapare it to Kythnos' fleets? http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=214782 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215506-1500pts-and-750pts-battle-fleet-gothic-list/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kythnos Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Might I ask which fleet list did you use? It's from the Armada book, right?

Cypher441 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 345 pts was the original cost of the Emperor, and the Retribution was 365 pts. They were switched to make the Retribution a more viable choice. I'd suggest you get the pdf copy of the rules so you have a fully up to date list to use. Anyway, as to your list(s) I've got a few pointers. At 1500 pts, an Emperor and a Dictator is not really necessary, unless you are going for a mass ordnance list, however any other race that does ordnance well will always be able to do it better than the Imperium. I would personally switch out the Dictator at this points level. Personally I would question the survivability of 3 Cobras or 2 Firestorms. Unless you manouevre them like a pro and get a little lucky, they will likely be shot down pretty quickly. Grab the 4th Cobra in both lists, and try to find the points somewhere for another Firestorm, or better yet go for some Swords. Save the points for elsewhere, drop the powered rams. Only use them on 1 or 2 ships when a few points happen to be kicking around. Out of personal experience if your Dictator is close enough to an enemy ship to ram it, it isn't being used properly. Consider Mars class ships for low points games, it's a great addition. Think of the synergy between the Armageddon and the Lunar (if you are planning on using them to support each other), or rather the problems with it. If you are close enough to the enemy for the Lunar and Armageddon to shoot, those 45cm guns on the Armageddon are going to waste. If you are too far away, then the Lunar can't shoot at all. Just a few things to consider.

Lord Howland Greywolf Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Well the ships are only chosen for what I have available (And the clases I am not so sure about. eBay pic wasn't really big). As for the Emperor class, it just seams like the better battle ship (That said, an armourd ram on the Retrobution...) And yeah, the only reason I have armourd rams any way is because I had 15pts and no idea what to do with them. Edit Right ok I have come up with a better (I hope) 750pt list Luna Class Los Fernos 185pts Armourd prow Luna Class Able Gunner 185pts Armourd prow Dauntless Class Mortis 110pts Mars Class Void Mother 270pts And for the 1,500pt (As 750) Fleet Admarel (Mars class) 50pts Retrebution Rammases 350pts Armourd ram Dauntless classAngelus 110pts Cobra Squadron (4) Vespa 120pts Firestorm Squadron (3) Arachna 120pts Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215506-1500pts-and-750pts-battle-fleet-gothic-list/#findComment-2571723 Share on other sites More sharing options...
