So I now have a game this week saturday against a World Eater opponent and I will be dipping my metallic toe into the Iron hands. I made this list while in class as a starter using the head of the gorgon and what I have available to me, so it may not work.

 

 

2,002 pts

ROW: Head of the Gorgon

 

HQ: Legion Preator ( Cataphraci Armor, Combi melta, Chain Fist, Cyber Familiar)

 

Command: Terminator Command squad ( 4 veterans, x3 power fists, x1 Heavy Flamer, Thunderhammer on Standard Bearer.

        -Land Raider Phobos Dedicated transport

 

HQ 2: Centurion Castrmen (stationed in Sicaran)

 

Troop 1:  Legion Tactical squad ( ten men, Artificer armor and heavy chainsword on sergeant, Legion Vexilla) 

                Dedicated Transport: Rhino

 

Troop 2: Legion Tactical squad ( ten men, Artificer armor and heavy chainsword on sergeant, Legion Vexilla) 

                Dedicated Transport: Rhino

 

Elite 1: Legion Dreadnought (x2 autocannons)
 
Elite 2: Legion Dreadnought (Flamestorm Cannon, Drop pod)
 
Fast Attack: x2 Javelin Speeders
 
Heavy Support 1: Legion Predator Executioner (machine spirit)
 
Heavy Support 2: Legion Sicaran (lascannon sponsons, dozerblade)
                            -Castrmen commanding tank
 
 
All vehicles have blessed Autocimulacara 

 

 

 

I tried to have the right amount of anti-tank as I know my opponent will have a ton of vehicles and armor, while still having some nice anti-infantry.  The two tactical squads will outflank in rhinos and the rest will pound the traitors with big guns!

You are very light on anti tank capabilities outside Orth. Can you get lascannons on that dread?

 

Maybe a Grav Gauntlet on the praetor as well.

 

I'm already Strapped for points with fitting everything in, and I thought I had enough Anti-Tank! I have 4 Str8 shots from the speeders, two lascannons from the land raider, and 4 str 7 shots from the Mortis dread. Is that really light in 30k? 

Riflemen dreads and non sunder/tank hunter missile launchers are very weak in the heresy, as the armour values tend to skew hard.

 

Swap the heavy chainsword for meltas bombs. If you own thunderfire cannons, they can be used as rapiers as well.

The problem only a small portion of that can deal with a spartan with flareshield :wink:

 

 

OH, yea, that probabbly is a brick to remove. What can deal with that then?

 

And I only have one thunderfire cannon but Would like to use two of them, so I'm kinda stuck there. And since I'm fighting world eaters I hesitate to get rid of my CCW's for that squad but it may be prudent.

A 2500 point list I did up for a friend for an ongoing campaign.

 

Head of the Gorgon    Iron Hands    
 
Praetor    w/ Experienced, Paragon Blade, Iron Halo   

Master of Signal    w/ Experienced, Artificer Armour   
        
10 Tactical Marines      
Rhino      
10 Tactical Marines       
Rhino       
        
1 Apothecary    w/ Artificer Armour   
8 Gorgons    w/ 2 Chain Fist   
1 Castellax    w/ Darkfire Cannon, 2 Flamers   
        
9 Heavy Support    w/ 8 Lascannons, Serg w/ Nuncio Vox, Artificer Armour   
Vindicator       
Vindicator       
        
Glaive    w/ Quad Lascannons   
        
Aegis Defense Line    w/ Ammo Dump   

 

The Apothecary and MoS goes with the lascannon team and sits around the ammo dump. Glaive sits behind aegis with the Castellax and lascannon team, Gorgons advance up a flank or sit with the home team if enemy has a strong assault force and the tanks all outflank.

Unless playing Campaign Games, Using the Campaign "Character Builder" Buffs and Stat increases are Illegal.

 

So unless you've cleared it with your gaming group, that needs to go.

How would you counter a bikes/rhinos/speeders 40k army?

I already have:

ferrus

3 predators

support squad

2 tacticals

cataphracti

cataphracti centurion

at 1500 I still have points to upgrade 100pts on the preds or the support sqd

head of the gorgon too
