Warbringer Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Ok guys thought i would throw this one out there? I love the rules and the back-story to Tycho was even on of my favorite models back in the day :) Thinking of building this guy with a cool conversion to be in my army. But how best to use him in a force not thinking of using the DC rules unless i can be convinced. How do you all run him? (If anyone does?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knife&fork Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 How do you all run him? (If anyone does?) Not many do. If I'd take him I'd try to maximize his "Rites of Battle" by going for a shooty (sternguard) list with lots of attack bikes, one of the few units that can have any real benefit from the LD10.

Warbringer Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 I run sternguard in my ultramarines so would want to do something different with my BA. Its a shame cos he is one cool character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cartel Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I run him in a pod with sternguard. Seems to be a pretty standard theme with the Great Captain.. Other than that, either in a Raz or Rhino with a shooty squad of somekind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Tycho and the priest go with the sternguard? I would take out the powerfist and use the extra points for more combi-meltas and a power weapon (or claw) for the jump pack priest. I'd also rather take two ac-las predators instead of the dreads, or two squads of devastators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
