I am Legion Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 It just came to me. Dante and JP DC deepstriking....10 DC outfitted with PFs and IPs... Upon landing you can pop a tank or MC or something, and the next turn you can stretch them out and charge multiple units. This will be such a target, but include other DOA units, and just throw it in your opponents face. I havnt worked on a list yet, but I just wanted to know your thoughts.

vharing Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Tried it once. It was fun until the guy I was playing against got annoyed that I have killed all his DA termies and LRC. He pie plate o' doomed them with two vindis. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238697-dante-dc/#findComment-2879181 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why Stop at 10 DC? go big or go home :) Gives them added resiliency and also ability to charge even more units Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238697-dante-dc/#findComment-2879207 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Angel Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Hit and Run with Dante and Death Company makes me laugh add Lemartes and its fall over funny Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238697-dante-dc/#findComment-2879302 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morticon Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I stand to be corrected, but I think Black Orange tried this out with some decent success. One of the draw cards is that Hit and Run is not effected by Rage.

AngelOfDeathXIII Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Never tried it.. But it's very, very, VERY, tempting... Fluff-wise I also like it, (Dante granting them a final honor to charge into combat by his side) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238697-dante-dc/#findComment-2879332 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havnt worked on a list yet, but I just wanted to know your thoughts. 575 points before you add power fists or infernus pistols. With special weapons (or Lemartes, as someone said earlier), you're talking about easily a third of your points at 2,000 points. That doesn't sound sensible to me.

Morollan Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 It's the Death Company. Sensible isn't in the room. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238697-dante-dc/#findComment-2879381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Landrain Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 A DC Army is not sensible, and not competitive, just a lot of "TOTAL CARNAGE!!!" Definately not an army to play if you have to win, but can surprise more than a few people. With Dante, you need to add a SP, just to give Dante FNP/FC... You also should have LeMartes, well just because rerolling everything is fun... A JP Libby for Shield would be a fun addon also. Using Astorath removes the Librarian option, but allows a second DC unit ;) So many fun options that can be done, just don't confuse it with competitive. Its just so fluffy.. kinda like a porcupine :( For a 2500 Pt Army... HQ: Commander "Death" Dante Astorath the Grim Elite: Sanguinary Priest Azrael with JP and Powersword Troops: 15 Man JP DC, with Dante, Astorath, and Azrael 14 Man JP DC, with Lemartes DC Dread "Uriel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer DC Dread "Jeremiel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer DC Dread "Raziel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer 2210 pts... 290pts of toys :) For 2000 pts Army... Commander "Death" Dante Astorath the Grim Elite: Sanguinary Priest Azrael with JP and Powersword Troops: 19 Man JP DC, with Dante, Lemartes, and Azrael DC Dread "Uriel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer, Grapple DC Dread "Jeremiel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer, Grapple DC Dread "Raziel" Drop Pod, Talons, Heavy Flamer, Grapple 1685 pts.. 215 pts of toys...
