Recommended Posts

My eaters of worlds are starting to take shape and I am I need of some insight from fellow legionaries to round out the list. I won't include Angron in this 2k but he will join the command squad when I do so he can drop in surrounded by artificer armour!

 

Hq - Khârn (praetor), paragon blade, plasma pistol, iron halo, melta bombs - 170

Hq - command squad (5), 1 power fist, 1 power sword and standard, 1 power sword and combat shield, 2 heavy chainswords, drop pod - 225

 

Elite - Apothecary (1), artificer armour (joins command squad) - 55

Elite - Dreadnaught (1), 2 DCCW, 1 melta gun, 1 combi bolter, drop pod - 175

 

Troop - Tactical squad (10), add ccw, vexilla, sarge w artificer armour, melta bombs, combi melta, drop pod - 240

Troop - Tactical squad (10), add ccw, vexilla, sarge w artificer armour, melta bombs, combi melta, drop pod - 240

Troop - Tactical squad (10), swap bolter for chain axe, vexilla, sarge w artificer armour, power fist, drop pod - 210

 

Fast Attack - Land speeders (2), 2 multi meltas, 2 heavy bolters - 150

 

I have all these models as I write this so I and reluctant to change the core. My question is what to add??? Total is 1465 so I have 535 to spend...

Run a bad@ss destroyer squad with jps, rad missile launchers, and phospex bombs. Or switch out the jps with a drop pod. Counter attack, rad grenades and dual pistols are definitely a deterrent to being charged ;)

 

Can you deep strike your whole force? I can't remember if the BRB said you could.

 

If you can't, then get an XBOXHEUGE squad of assault marines and load them to the gills with PWs or pistols and such. Or you can break it into 2 squads.

 

That way with the ASM they can be your hammer and the pods be your anvil. ;) getting tactical...hell yeah

Yes - you can full deep strike reserve assuming you MUST be held in reserve (see the deep strike section in the BRB - weird i know)

 

At this stage i have 5 pods and the speeders. The speeders have deep strike built in and thus are allowed in the list. The rites of war only requires that they CAN deep stike, not that they must.

 

I can run storm eagles (again built in deep strike) but as a transport they are meh...

 

At this stage, thinking i should add one more troops choice which will leave me enough points for one more unit... idealy both should be in pods...

 

Destroyers in a pod sounds like fun... i wonder if i drop the speeders, could i fit a 9 strong destroyer unit with Moritat in a pod AND another 10 strong tac squad...

Hmmm I was going to mention the moritat but is it worth losing out on another rad missile launcher? It's up to you ;)

 

Though the moritat can be used effectively in the drop pod squad as no one can charge yet and chain fire will cause a mess and iirc you can break him from the squad as they disembark to destroy another squad.

 

Do you know if rad grenades can stack? So that the destroyers causes -1 and then the Morty stacks for -2 to toughness? If you could...then any squad that charges them or gets charged by them would have T1 or T0 after a rad missile....hmmm and if T0 then theyre auto dead mwhahahahahah (cue evil laughing and petting of evil cat)

Oh and a side note....who are you going to use to represent Khârn? I'm very interested

 

I'm using the FW champion instead of the command squad guy as he looks more gladiatory but idk if I should switch out his sword for an axe or home brew weapon as paragon blades are not only swords....gets the old marbles rolling for ideas on gladiatorish weapons

Ok so destroyers with Moritat in a pod will be 450 or so and if i drop the speeders I should manage another pod... Either a second dread or a recon/tactical/seeker unit

Mine is converted using mk4 parts, rampager parts and the GW Khârn model... Will grab a wip pic if you like?
