TheForgottenAngel Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Here are some lists that I have drawn up with the models I have or have ordered. It contains elements of the Ravenwing and Deathwing we know and love with the one and only Luther leading the army. The first list is one that contains every unit I have modeled to date, the second is a sub 2000pt list with room for upgrades to bring it easily to 2k pts. Enjoy and look forward to updates of the models as I get around to posting pictures. In the first list you see I have 155pts before I hit 2500pts even. I may add a Predator Squadron in there or add Rhinos 2341pt List Proposed Additions to make it 2477pts 45pts Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier - Extra Armor 45pts Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier - Extra Armor 45pts Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier - Extra Armor --------------------------------------------Total: 135 HQ 185pts Legion Praetor, Luther - Archaeotech Pistol, Paragon Blade, Digital Lasers, Iron Halo 195pts Legion Command Squad (1 Banner, 4 Chosen) - Power Weapons, Combat Shields, 2X Extra Chosen 185pts Legion Moritat, Lord Cypher, Keeper of Secrets - Plasma Pistol, Bolt Pistol, Artificer Armor, Refractor Shield Elite 241pts Cataphractii Terminator Squad - Sergeant with Lightning Claws, Plasma Blaster + Power Weapon, PowerfistsX3 Combi-weapons X3 241pts Cataphractii Terminator Squad - Sergeant with Lightning Claws, Plasma Blaster + Power Weapon, PowerfistsX3 Combi-weapons X3 235 - Contemptor Talon - X2Twin Linked Lascannon, Extra Armor 230 - Contemptor Talon - 2X Close Combat weapons, 2XPlasma Blasters, Extra Armor, Drop-Pod Dedicated Transport Troops 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword Fast 175 - Jetbike Ravenwing Squadron (1 Sergeant, 2 Ravenwing Hunters) - Sergeant w/ Plasma Pistol, Multimelta 175 - Jetbike Ravenwing Squadron (1 Sergeant, 2 Ravenwing Hunters) - Sergeant w/ Plasma Pistol, Multimelta How it is played: Luther, Lord Cypher and Command Squad go after the meatiest targets on the board while the Jetbikes focus on heavily armored targets. The Lascannon Contemptor's focus is on Anti-Air and Armor. The Close Combat oriented Contemptor goes after MEQ units and supports Luther and Cypher. Both Contemptors can be made to be Lascannons turrets depending on my feeling that afternoon or if there is intelligence stating the enemy has air superiority. Since Cataphractii units count as troops for scoring purposes in 30k they will go after heavily entrenched objectives while the Legion Tactical Squads sit on my objectives. Essentially this is a very aggressive play-style list that focuses on fluffiness and fun rather than competitveness as I see 30k being more of a fun rule-set than a focus on winning tournaments. 1977 List -Essentially drops the Moritat, Lord Cypher and the Command Squad. The Contemptors both take Dual Twin Linked Lascannons for Anti-Armor and the Bikes have taken plasma cannons for MEQ hordes. HQ 185pts Legion Praetor, Luther - Archaeotech Pistol, Paragon Blade, Digital Lasers, Iron Halo Elite 241pts Cataphractii Terminator Squad - Sergeant with Lightning Claws, Plasma Blaster + Power Weapon, PowerfistsX3 Combi-weapons X3 241pts Cataphractii Terminator Squad - Sergeant with Lightning Claws, Plasma Blaster + Power Weapon, PowerfistsX3 Combi-weapons X3 235 - Contemptor Talon - X2Twin Linked Lascannon, Extra Armor 235 - Contemptor Talon - X2Twin Linked Lascannon, Extra Armor Troops 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword 160pts - Legion Tactical Squad (9 Marines, 1 Sergeant)- Sergeant w/ Power Sword Fast 180 - Jetbike Ravenwing Squadron (1 Sergeant, 2 Ravenwing Hunters) - Sergeant w/ Plasma Pistol, Plasma Cannon 180 - Jetbike Ravenwing Squadron (1 Sergeant, 2 Ravenwing Hunters) - Sergeant w/ Plasma Pistol, Plasma Cannon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265674-2000pt-and-2500pt-dark-angels-pre-heresy-lead-by-luther/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
spu00sed Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Your tactical squads could be illegal. The wording of their upgrades imply they can only swap out their bolter for one weapon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265674-2000pt-and-2500pt-dark-angels-pre-heresy-lead-by-luther/#findComment-3239176 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheForgottenAngel Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 The plasma pistol and power sword are for the sergeant who can take some wargear. It's possible for him to even take Artificer armor as well which I may do and allow him to soak up wounds on a 2+ armor save.

TheForgottenAngel Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Yeah just reread it to double check. That's a shame since he can get a powersword but not upgrade his boltpistol. Well I guess that saves me some points. Edited lists to reflect change.

TheForgottenAngel Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 I just want to make a Dark Angels themed force is all. I'd feel dirty if I used the Horus rules for the list lol. I might look into though to play the campaign with some of my friends.
