My B Co concept

[pueriexdeus]

Am building my second company, no not the Ravenwing, and would like some feedback.

 

My DIY Dark Angel Chapter is so not Codex approved… The Pueri ex Deus is a unique DA Chapter that was peeled off of the Legion pre Heresy.

 

Background: Hand selected DA Chapter tasked with the Emperors own mission.

 

Those Who Wait in the Dark (DW) 170+ TDA, HQ’s, LR’s Dreads

Angels Talon (RW) 5X RWAS, HQ’s

 

My completed A Co is basically a full Battle Company, Leg Combat team with a full contingent of HQ, Tac, Devs, and Aslt Sqds, with a Pred, Whirly, Rhino, Rzrbk and one RW Attack Sqd…

 

Now I want to build my B Co. Am leaning toward the Ironwing concept; that would be an Armor Company with a Platoon of Infantry support.

 

HQ = Cmdr BS5 Pred, Chappi BS5 Pred

Cmd Sqd = Techmarine w/?

Tac = 6X Pred; TLLC, HKM, PMSB, EA

FA = 3X Rzrbk w/TLHB, TLLC, or MM, HKM,PMSB, EA, Cmbt Sqd

HS = 3X Whirli, or Vendi

So, what do you think???

So no-one has any ideas about the "Ironwing" concept I propose for my B Co?

 

Would this be better;

 

It's more of a Mechanized Infantry Combat team concept. Defiantly not Ironwingish.

 

HQ; Cmdr, Chappi, Cmd Sqd, LRP or variant

Troops; 6X Rzrbk w/TLHB, TLLC, or MM, HKM,PMSB, EA, Cmbt Sqd

FA; 2X RWSS w/TML, MM, Ass Casnnon, 4X HB's

HS; 2X Vendi, Pred, or Whirly

Sorry about not responding earlier, I prefer the first option, Iron Wing need some attention and a resurrection. Pics must follow of course :( .

Put the Techie in a RB or even a LR with his servitors and start rolling.

It'd be an epic Apocalypse force so FoC doesn't really matter.

OK, looking at the Tank and Mechanized Infantry Combat Team (FM 71-1) concept, has brought up some things worth considering.

 

Tank heavy concept;

 

1) HQ = Cmdr, XO, & 1SGT. Cmdr & XO/Libbie both in a Tank. 1SGT in an alternate Tracked Vehicle. = 2X HQ Pred & Chappi w/Cmd Sqd in Rzrbk.

 

2) 3X Armor Platoons of 4 Tanks each. = 12 Preads

 

3) 1 Platoon of Mechanized Infantry. = Command & Four Infantry Squads in AFV's (3X Tac Cmbt Sqds, 1X Dev Cmbt Sqd in 4X Razorbacks)

 

4) Heavy support. = Damocles Command Rhino, or, 3x Whirlwinds

 

5) Armorer support = Techmarines and Servitors in Rzrbk

 

Mechanized Infantry Heavy concept;

 

1) HQ = Cmdr, XO, & 1SGT. Cmdr, XO/Libbie, 1SGT/Chappi in Rzrbks w/Cmd Sqds.

 

2) 3X Mechanized Infantry Platoons of 4 Combat Sqds each. = 12 Rzrbks

 

3) 1 Platoon of Armor. = Command & Three Preads. Total 4 Preads

 

4) Heavy support. = Damocles Command Rhino, or, 3x Whirlwinds

 

5) Armorer support = Techmarines and Servitors in Rzrbk

 

I am leaning toward the Tank Combat Team just because it's so not normal. In the new (V5) DA environment I will hope to have the Auspix re-introduced.

 

One important issue will be applying Command Sqd rules to an Armor unit. Banner, Apothecary, Champion, etc...
