spu00sed Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 So I brought stronghold assault today, needed a break from Christmas shipping, and was wondering about where 30kers are thinking about including it in their armies. It has a few updated rules for bastions, aegis lines and sky shield pads, and new rules for all the parts of the wall of martyrs (including the strength d Marco cannon and vortex missile launcher). However the part I like it being able to buy sets of fortifications (either the planet strike or wall of martyrs, minus the strength d option). For larger battles this gives you a decent amount of terrain to hide your marines in. I'm sure our iron warrior and imperial fist brothers would love to spend 1300pts plus upgrades on trenches. I'm planning on getting some martyr walls for my emperors children, we did make the fortifications at the ungall depression after all.

Russ Brother 92 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I'm intrigued by it - at the least as an option for good/proper Siege or Forlorn Hope scenarios :d Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284257-stronghold-assault-and-30k/#findComment-3540369 Share on other sites More sharing options...

spu00sed Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Im loving it and my growing Iron Warriors are now accompanied by a pile of fortifications... I'm shocked.

Noserenda Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hehe true, but its what gave me the impetus to get them running in the end, forts rather than a random aegis line or bastion on their own!I can see Salamanders loving the Promethium pipes too though :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284257-stronghold-assault-and-30k/#findComment-3541743 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Brother 92 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I'm planning on mixing the Castellan Fortress bits from FW with GW & Homemade 'Wall of Martyrs' defence lines with Iron Hands defending and a mixture of IW, IH & EC bodies strewn across the defences with Ferrus vs Fulgrim atop one bunker and Perturabo further back :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/284257-stronghold-assault-and-30k/#findComment-3541763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlabasterKnight Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'm planning on mixing the Castellan Fortress bits from FW with GW & Homemade 'Wall of Martyrs' defence lines with Iron Hands defending and a mixture of IW, IH & EC bodies strewn across the defences with Ferrus vs Fulgrim atop one bunker and Perturabo further back I'd like to see that when it's complete.

Dono1979 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Keep in mind that there is the 4 Fortification FOC option from Book 2 in 30K, lets you take a Mega Fortification and up to three other Fortification, an Imperial Fortress combined with three other fortification networks from Stronghold Assault would be a pretty awesome Imperial Fist defensive network!

Russ Brother 92 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 @Dono - there are rules in IA:Apocalypse 2nd Ed. however I think it's null and void now - however looking at the contents page for IA:Apocalypse 3rd Ed. the Imperial Fortress Walls (previously falling under 'Forces of the Imperium' sub-heading) aren't listed, so unless they're in the 'big book' for apocalypse they're no longer useable...
