GodEmperorOfMankind Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hi Guys, looking at a 1500 point foot slogging list, decided to go for plenty of men. Basically 5 x 20man tactical squad = 1250 Centurion Artificer armour power weapon combat shield = 80 Leaves 170, was thinking either a trio of rapiers at 165, or 2 WW as 150. Comments/Suggestions? I realise I'll probably get slaughtered, I just like the idea of putting out 100 marines and performing fury of the legion in a turn, 200-400 bolt shells :o Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haranin Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Toss meltabombs on the tactical sargeants, as well as artificer armor and power weapons. I'd drop one squad of 20 for two support squads- TOE has two tactical and one support per company.

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 But then I don't have 100 marines with bolters and fury of the legion :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3253146 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim AMM realgenius Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Ah, thanks. In that case, I'd go with the Rapiers for the anti-tank. I might even split them into three different squads.

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Good thinking on splitting them! Ok then, 101 marines with 3 rapiers it is! lets hope I don't face any flyers :wallbash: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3253755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Melice Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Bunkers!!! Love your cockieness and unstandard way of thinking, but 100 marines+Fury of the legion on one turn... bunkers!

*Furyou Miko Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I think you mean 'bonkers', Brother Melice. 'bunkers' are the thing that's going to screw this army over.

TheForgottenAngel Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 This force will eat almost everything out there apart from armor. I say being in some antitank in the form of destroyers and you'd be set and fluffy. I know my own army would have a hell of a time dealing with this. What Legion you doing for this?

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 Well I'd decided on 3 rapiers laser destroyers, so there is SOME anti tank ;) It was gonna be for Iron Warriors, as that's my legion Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3310447 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperors Teeth Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Yer a looney! I love it :D. You might regret the lack of anti-tank/meltabombs though, when a Contemptor or two start making canned spam out of your marine squads.

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 well 3 rapiers, as seperate units, means I should be able to take out a few heavy targets each turn. Now if anyone fields flyers I'm humped ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3313965 Share on other sites More sharing options...
W0lfie Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I'd switch the centurion for a librarian, and then take a second librarian, and put meltabombs on all your squads. You won't have the long-range anti-tank of the rapiers, but you will still be able to melt tanks, and if the librarians use prescience your FotL will be 10x scarier. Especially if they also make it ignore cover. Bonus points if you use the librarian to fire overwatch at full BS with re-rolls to hit, and then counter attack, still re-rolling to hit. Anything that can survive THAT deserves to beat you in assault! Or better yet just get a bunch of apothecaries.

Brother Melice Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 So Brother... are we going to see your actual army being build??? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3355992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodEmperorOfMankind Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Oh for certain. But at roughly £140 per squad, with 5 squads, plus 3 rapiers and a centurion adding roughly £100 to the cost. This one will take some time. Also I'm currently on a 40k chaos binge, snapping up cheap cultists, helbrutes and chosen, since the models are so good! Rest assured once the army is on it's way I'll be letting you all know Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/267080-a-company-in-1500-points/#findComment-3356302 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Melice Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Hah!!! you stole my idea for a chaos army!!! Lord Chosen cultists 35x cultists 35x cultists 35x and the list goes on!!!Good Luck on that mate!!! I want to see the progress though!
