The Battle for Humanity (Legion) Open

Something desperate brother, this was spawned by wanting a showcase thread and to bring out some of the best b&c have to offer.

 

Loyalists traitors warriors and killers are all welcome, it would be great to have you join brother.

Oaths are a minimum 1000 points in accordance with betrayal & codexes that don't cover certain factions ie. imperial army can use guard lists.

 

There is no cut off. But oaths must be completed by the release of extinction.

 

Depending on levels of participation, this could become an ongoing showcase.

 

And uploads can be via b&c photo bucket etc.

This is verrrrrrrrrrrrry tempting, but I don't know if I can a: afford the $$$ value, and b: find the time, especially with the new Codex just days away. For the record, I am considering a small, Loyalist, Death Guard Black Shield force, with flamer-wielding breachers, chem munitions, and maybe a tank.

It's but a 1000point commitment smile.png

I know, which is why I'm debating between a pair of 15-strong breacher squads (lots of points), or one of those, and one 20 man tac, with some other stuff. Away from my copy of Betrayal at the moment (at work), so will have a look tonight.

EDIT: I'm just going to leave this here, in case I forget to bring the list with me to work tomorrow in order to submit my vow. This is what I'm toying with; 1,500 points in total, but a lot of squid:

HQ - 175 pts

Section Leader Crysos Morturg

ELITES - 275 pts

Apothecarion Detachment

- 1 Legion Apothecary

- artificer armour, power weapon

Legion Contemptor Talon

- 1 Legion Contemptor

- twin-linked lascannon, heavy flamer

TROOPS - 680 pts

Legion Tactical Squad

- 19 Marines, Sgt.

- additional blade/chainsword

- artificer armour

Legion Breacher Siege Squad

- 19 Marines, Sgt.

- 4 flamers, power fist

HEAVY - 370 pts

Legion Predator Squadron

- 1 Predator

- plasma executioner

Legion Heavy Support Squad

- 9 Marines, Sgt.

- heavy flamers, hardened armour

- chem munitions

Just a few questions...

  • 20xman squads don't need to be provided with a transport option.
  • a minimum of two transports; land raiders, rhinos, drop pods, storm eagles etc.
  • only the first two troop choices need a transport, the only exceptions are 20 man units.
Do Jump Pack units need a transport? Or are they disallowed as part of the minimum 2 troop choices unless 20 strong?

Do 20-strong units reduce the number of minimum transports? (If I have two 20-man units, do I still need transports? If I have one, can I have only 1 transport?)

 

I'll wait for answers to these before I commit, and thanks again for setting this up!

"I Jaspcat in this oath of moment, will produce 1x centurion (counts as Khârn) 110pts, 1x 10man veteran squad w/melta missile launcher & nuncio vox with rhino transport 285pts, 1x 10man veteran squad (SoH reavers conversion) w/ volkite charger plasma & nuncio vox with rhino transport 270pts, 2x contemptor dreadnoughts loadout to be decided minimum 350pts, 3x rapier graviton cannons 225 pts, 1x 10 man seeker squad 250pts. For the honour of my legion and for Horus the Warmaster.

 

Edit; there may be a land raider Achilles and some predators included but not as of yet.

I, Grotsmasha, take this Oath of Moment to complete 1x The Reaper, Lord of the Death Guard Mortarion by years' end.

Cheers,

EDIT: Do our allied forces need to come from the listed engagements, or can we choose our own pair, as I *may be able to make a real vow should a DA/SW alliance be acceptable, as I wish to represent the force surrounding the story from the DA Codex, The Lion and The Wolf.

"I, Furioso-Prime in this oath of moment, will produce A Drake Lord (centurion) with a combi-melta plasma pistol, thunder hammer, Articifer armour, and a refracter field for  125pts. A 10man Tactical squad with Nuncio Vox and Vexilla led by a Sgt with a plasma pistol, lightning claw, melta-bomb and Articifer armour 200pts. a rhino transport (HKM, Dozer, aux. drive, extra armour and a heavy flamer for 85pts. A 20 man Breacher Siege Squad with 4 melta-guns, 20 melts bombs, and a Nuncio Vox led by a Sgt with a plasma pistol, thunder hammer, breaching charge, and Articifer armour for 540ps. A one dreadnought Talon with a DCCW, chain fist, 2X melta-guns, extra armour, armoured ceramite, 2X HKM's, and Assault frag launchers for 200 pts.

 

For the Emperor, and his people!

 

 

this oath will be completed by release day of Horus Heresy book 3:

 

oops, for got points total: 1150

Ok, ok, I'm in:

 

"I Sgt. Cotys, in this oath of moment, will produce 1,500 points worth of Loyalist Death Guard Black shields, featuring: 1x Section Leader Crysos Morturg (175pts); 1x 20 man Legion Tactical Squad with additional combat weapons (300pts); 1x 20 man Legion Breacher Siege Squad with 4 flamers & a power fist (380pts); 1x Legion Contemptor Dreadnought with twin-linked lascannon & heavy flamer fist (210pts); 1x Legion Apothecary with a power weapon & artificer armour (65pts); 1x Legion Heavy Support Squad with heavy flamers & hardened armour (260pts); and 1x Legion Predator with plasma executioner (110pts); all flame weapons to be loaded with chem munitions. For the honour of those still loyal to The Emperor, and Him on Terra!"

I'm thinking about joining in on this. I just need a few days to gather my thoughts, and come up with a list or two. By Friday night, I should be ready to do this. And I make this vow right now: I, TheWarmaster, shall not fail in this vow, unlike my ETL vow. I shall see this one through to the very end. By my bloodoath to...well, that's what I'm working on...

It's fine to go over the 1,000 points? I kinda went a bit overboard on my list, but it's sooooo small as it is...

 

And also, I suppose that once the oath is made, it can't be altered in any way, correct?

 

If so, I need to think on this list, as I'm not entirely sure I like it for its point cost.

1,000 points is the minimum. My list is 1,500 points, but only because I could not fit all that I wanted in 1,000 points.

 

Yay, another loyalist!

 

As far as I can see, we're the only ones for now.

 

 

 

 

To be honest, I only went Loyalist because I like the idea of Crysos Morturg & a ragged band of survivors post Istavaan III. Please don't shoot me.

Oaths can be added to and weapon upgrades/downgrades will be allowed but base squad oaths have to be taken.

 

ie, a dreadnought can be chosen with weapons choices which can be amended changed but the removal of the dred will be a oath violation, this is why I said for people to think carefully.
