Brother Gaius Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 OK, if I can figure out good stand in models, this is the madness I am thinking of inflicting on my friends around here.... Coteaz 6X 6 Psykers, 6 Daemonhosts thats just over 800 points 3X Techmarines, 3X skulls, orbital bombardment Relay totals just under 450 points 1250 or so that drops 6X8/1 large blast templates, and three bombadments a round. You can even change out the OSR on the techmarines for CB's and gain control and possible 10/1's. The Daemons hosts are there to soak up wounds and possibly do something nasty at 24 inch (dice permitting!) I know...Its not competitve, its not meant to be a top tier list, but somethign that lets me throw around alot of templates each and every turn. Thoughts, laughter?

JasoX Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 1 round of enemy shooting and everyone in your army is dead? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249660-madness-this-is-bombardment/#findComment-3024377 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Stacius Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I think it is quite competitve, where it could fall down is against eldar or nids. But its actually quite a nasty looking force i think!

Brother Gaius Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 how exactly do you figure that if they go reserve its an auto lose? Unless they are bringing a massively mech'd and ranged army, there is no way they can take out all my scoring/shooting units in one round of fire. And if they go reserve, unless they arrive en masse, I will hammer them as they arrive here and there. Its not meant to be a top tier tourney list. It's meant to be a crazy, odd, possibly effective army. If I really wanted to do uuber competitive I would just do the usual Crowe or Draigo spam, or just bring my Mordrak DS army. at 1500 its 76 models. and I can add more in relatively easily and cheaply.

the jeske Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 massively mech'd and ranged army, so like DE venom spam , anything necron , anything IG ,tau , razorbuilds out of GK/BA/SW , anything meq out of SW, chaos , any LR rush , nid reserv builds . yeah so we are kind of a left with what . demons , orc green wave and that is more or less it as long good builds go. Your owning up footslogger sm builds that do hth .how many footslogger meq lists are viable to play in 5th ed other then armies like DW[reserv not realy meq] or draigo wings[not meq and almost always have good spamable range support]?

*Furyou Miko Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Lol, Necrons are mid-to-short-range, Jeske. If they hold everything back in reserve, they just waste turns trying to get into range. The ONLY thing in the 'cron army with a more than 24" range is the artillery. And for god's sake, sort out your grammar and syntax (yes, I'm aware of the irony of telling someone to fix their grammar while breaking a grammatical rule!).

Brother Gaius Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Ok, I did not come up with this to create an uuber competitve list. BUt lets see..... Dark Eldar: I have 36 inch range large blasts that hit at 8/1? I think I can take out venom/raider spam if they try and out shoot me. Necron: LOL. max range of 24, no models for their best transports or fast attack options (Tomb blades would own me) and the one model that would own me is pretty broken anyhow (Annihilation Barge) Eldar: Yes, pretty much an auto lose if they bring the Runes. I accept that. Nids: once I get into SWITW, yes, its going to be very bad for me. SW: broken psi defence? Yes, like most armies that depend on psi for offense, its pretty much a loss against the puppies unless I get lucky and pop them from out of range. against raider spam, all i really have to do is have shifted the balance of psykers a bit. 8 psykers and 4 Daemonhosts means 10/1 large blasts at 36. I just didn't want to go that far into cheddar. anything else: IG horde? I got that. Rhino rush? Yeah, 8/1 take care of that. I can counter most things pretty handily, I like to think. GK's would be a pain.....ld 8, not easy. Ld 7 or 4? Not so much.
