Azrael Turnbull Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hello all When discussing tactics with each other and helping our brothers improve as they help us, we usually come to the same subject; army lists. Although it is proven that good army lists will substantially improve your chances of victory over not so good lists, there's so much more to it. I want to make this thread for us brothers to assist those that are struggling to win even with recommended lists. So, what are we here to talk about? Formations. What units form particular groups with individual roles in your recommended formation and how do you initially deploy them? Do you follow formations used by historically successful military leaders or make up your own? If you do not use formations and simply act by whim, why don't you tell us what kind of army you're using and we'll recommend formations to you? Let's hear them!

cypherkk Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Formation Iron Wing Vehicle spearhead land raiders crusaders and vindicators in support of deathwing, though in large numbers aka. 2000+pts any dark angels. May have a long range support predator or whirl wind. Frequently techmarines riding bikes to help keep up with this mobile formation and protect and maintain these sacred machines. In use since the age if the lion. Often forgotten... Run three land raiders spaced about 5-6 inches apart. 2 vindicator s just behind but in between them. Dw command squad in center with devastation banner. Dw squads or knights on the flanks. Bike tech marines ride just behind land raiders with power field. For long range anti tank, predator annihilator for anti troop, whirl wind. Razor backs with scouts or tactical squads have also been valuable providing twin lc firepower.
