An interesting idea


Recommended Posts

so while flipping through the BA codex i realized that because dreadnoughts take up 3 different slots (furioso - elites, Death Company - troops, and regular - heavy support) i could effectively make an entire army of dreadnoughts! while i realize now that the hull points rule exists it makes dreads much more vulnerable, i thought it still might be interesting to have several (11 max if you make a 30-man DC squad) of these walking war machines charging down the field to rain death upon my enemy, and with the right modifications here or there i think it could be an interestingly formidable force!

BA are able to run Drop Pod assault and I have had some success in the new edition with that. My list was

 

100 Librarian

100 Librarian

125 - Dreadnought w/ Frag Cannon

35 - Drop Pod

125 - Dreadnought w/ Frag Cannon

125 - Dreadnought w/ Frag Cannon

35 - Drop Pod

175 - Dreadnought Librarian w/ Shield and Lance

35 - Drop Pod

35 - Drop Pod

175 - Dreadnought Librarian w/ Shield and Lance

35 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

110 - Assault Squad w/ Meltagun

0 - Drop Pod

 

 

I would drop all the dreads turn one to take out anything that I could with the Lances and the Frag Cannons. Then the next few turns try and get the rest of my army in to capture objectives or crack more meltaguns against vehicle hulls to get the frag cannons somethign to eat up.
