What to add to my Thousand Sons


Emperor's Furor

Recommended Posts

So I'm definitely doing thousand sons for my friends campaign, we're starting off at 1k and I've wrote a list and I'm certain about most of it apart from around 160 points free to spend, I was going to add a predator executioner, but I read Thousand Sons are not exactly prone to using tanks, I mean they probably have them but that don't make a habit of utilizing them. So I was wondering what else I could slide in that would look cool and was wondering if you had any suggestions?

 

HQ
 
Librarian Asseth Sutekh, of the Corvidae Cult - (lvl 3) - Artificer armour / refractor field / Force Staff/Halberd - 155
 
 
Elites
 
Graviton Cannon Rapier - 75
 
 
Troops
 
Tactical Squad (10) Power sword - 160
 
Assault Squad (10) Power sword (3) - 280
 
Tactical Support Squad (5) - Plasma gun (4) / Power sword - 170

I loved the scene where the TS are dropping into that city and are in stormbirds and are mind melding to predict the best route and shield their craft from incoming flak.

 

 

I would say that stormeagle drop assault would be awesome and fluffy if you want some mech

Not got the points to add that unfortunately. I think I may add a heavy bolter heavy support squad because I saw this piece of artwork in collected visions I quite like. Although I'm also considering land speeders or a dreadnought converted out of the chaos thousand sons dreadnought from forgeworld.

I would go for one of the following:

 

A) add extra bodies to existing squads

 

B) add a second plasma support squad, without the power sword

 

C) add a auto cannon heavy support squad

 

D) add a second librarian, this one to go with the assault squad

If I only say one thing then it will be for you to lose the power sword in the plasma support group; stick your HQ with some divination shenackery to boost your damage output whole putting off any enemy assaults, and replace said power sword with a plasma pistol, as per taste.

That's why I was considering the heavy bolter squad, if I stick my librarian with him, they could potentially fire on overwatch at normal ballistic skill and reroll to hits etc I gave the guy in the plasma squad the power sword because I'm using the tomb king swords for my power weapons so I guess I went a little over the top by also giving him one :P

Hey, I'm the guy that gives his Sergeants artificer armour and power fists, so rule of cool it all the way if you want : ).

 

What I don't like sharing though, is the absolute killing power of plasma support squad with divi librarians, take three (no accusations of power gaming against you you lucky sod, you are TS) in Rhino's and I guarantee Angron will not want to come out of his Spartan box. "Migraine!" He cried.
