TheForgottenAngel Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 It looks rather solid. As I do not own the newest book (yet) I'm not sure what the tainted weapons do. I would say that your lacking in durable troops. By durable I mean able to survive long enough to hold objectives. In 30K troops will die rather easily due to the abundance of heavy weapons, templates, elite units etc. For my personal army I'm building 2 units of 15 tacticals with sergeant in artificer and powersword, vox caster and vexilla. Their staying power is much greater and more so when you add an apothecary.

Adriaschehov Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Tainted weapons - CCW with Specialist Weapon and Instant death rules. My Troops slot is realy weak.. We are Word Bearers and we are True Believers (3d6 for all Morale checks and must pick the two lowest dice) We dont need vexilla. I can sent my Tactical Marines in reserve and they will come when Gal Vorbak will come for the souls of enemies.. This gays is very good! They are ripped 10 Terminators in close combat in one turn!

TheForgottenAngel Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Good stuff, yeah no point in legion vexillas if you're rolling 3D6 for morale. Your tactics are valid I would just be cautious with those troops. Apart from that everything looks really fluffy and solid!

Pavel Araghast Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Adriaschehov, back to our conversation in other topic, maybe swap terminator bodyguards for 5-man termisquad? They are scoring so they can move after Gal Vorbak and score a point. Than praetor can go with Gal Vorbak. You can find points droping diablosist or chaplain or apothecary. Other than that you lack AA defense. It's ok for spartan or phobos (but try to find points for ceramite), but you rhinos may be destroyed. Cherrs, бро.
