Rune Priest Ridcully Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Basically I'm wondering, apart from smaller games has anyone run a list that was basically just rubrics? Say a 1500pts list of c.30 rubrics in rhinos with a couple of preds or whatever as backup, or 1500pts list where you just have pure rubrics and swamp the field with 30-40 odd rubrics? Part of me has been thinking of trying out the former recently and I just wondered if anyone had ever done a list that was almost purely troops?

Ethrion Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 well my lists usually revolve around 30-40 rubrics with 2 hq sorcerers 3 obliterators and one squad of chosen...i add rhinos as transports if i have the points...otherwise they just walk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ah-a-nothepsis Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 The last codex saw me running: Ahriman 9 Rubric Terminators 9 Tsons 9 Tsons 9 Tsons 9 Tsons Autolas Pred Autolas Pred When the "Change" happened, I kept the same list with the current codex but eventually learned that 9 terminators with 1 chainfist and ALL combi-bolters suck so I removed them and started running oblits. I still try to use 4 squads at 2k and it works fine, so long as you have minimum two units to pop tanks. Ahhhhh, I miss playing 2k games with 88 Wounds.

Ethrion Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I'll be getting about 30 more rubrics from a mate so in all I'll be able to run about 70-80 soon! Totally going to try that out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Hawk Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Bah! Arrogant fools! Our lost brothers are too precious to be feilded en masse! We must rely on our younger brothers to carry that task! Oh no, I conveniently forgot, you can't (maniacal laughter), because you can't replentish your numbers! Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha ect. :) (If you have no idea what any of that gloating meant, then check out the 'Recruiting New Marines' thread on this sub-forum) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Bah. Rubrics and Armour Wraiths (my Rubrics-in-sororitas-armour) are far more durable than your pathetic 'recruits'. Precious? When all that's needed to get any Rubric that has fallen back in the fight is an arc welder and a bit of gum? Your efforts are wasted, Hawk.

Crimson Hawk Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Your arrogance betrays you- my recruits are the future of our legion! While you are busy sheperding Rubrics around, wispering prayers to your uncaring god, the true sons of Tizca will forge a great legacy! Glory to the new legion! Actually, those 'armour wraiths' sound incredibly cool :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 The fluff for the Armour Wraiths is that they're the suits of armour stockpiled for use by the Order of the Blazing Staff, a combined Battle Sister / Pronatus order responsible for guarding the warp storm to the northwest of Ultramar (and also guardians of several relics whose proper owners can't be identified, such as Illesus, the sword forged for Crowe before he took up Antwyr). When Aeronwy murdered the Order, she performed a variant of the Rubrik that used Horrors and Flamers instead of Marine souls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
