Vincec79 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Thought I'd post up an Alpha Legion list I've been looking to building. To be honest I haven't played in years, more just enjoy the painting and lore, but its nice to build a feasible army (plus I like the theory and math). Working from some of the info as regards the new Alpha Legion list until my copy of the ltd ed Extermination turns up I've been thinking about the following list based upon the Praetor using the Coils of the Hydra rite of war and the army using Infiltrate Mutible Tactic Praetor (160) Paragon Blade, Power Dagger, Cataphractii Terminator Armour Master of Signal (105) Artificer Armour Lernaean Terminator Squad (285) Harrower 5 Terminators, 2 armed with Power fists, 1 armed with a Chainfist Apothecarion Detachment (120) 2 Apothecaries with Augury Scanners and Artificer Armour Legion Tactical Squad (285) Sergeant with Power Axe, Melta-bombs and Artificer Armour 19 Marines with a Legion Vexilla Legion Tactical Squad (285) Sergeant with Power Axe, Melta-bombs and Artificer Armour 19 Marines with a Legion Vexilla Legion Tactical Squad (220) Sergeant with Power Axe, Melta-bombs and Artificer Armour 9 Marines with a Legion Vexilla Rhino Dedicated Transport Headhunter Kill Team (325) Headhunter Prime with Melta-bombs and Artificer Armour 9 Headhunters, 1 armed with a Heavy Bolter Legion Skyhunter Jetbike Squad (200) 4 Skyhunters with Melta-bombs. 1 Volkite Culvarin Legion Spartan Assault Tank (340) Flare Shield and Armoured Ceramite Legion Sicaran Tank (175) Lascannon Sponsons Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I thought the Sicaran was 225 with Las Cannons?? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/#findComment-3660953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincec79 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Unless it's been updated in an FAQ I've missed the base cost from Massacre is 135 and lascannons are +40 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/#findComment-3661242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpiousSmart Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I assume your Praetor is going with the Lernaean Terminators in the Spartan? If so, I'd not go with Cataphractii armour, as the squad doesn't have it and he'd slow them down if he has to keep up. The only anti-flyer in your list is the sicaran, and if the enemy brings a primarch and flyer (quite feasible at 2,500), then you might struggle there possibly? I might be tempted to drop the Skyhunters for something like a Contemptor-Mortis or another sicaran? (this is all based on me playing one game of 40K this weekend having not played for years, and not yet getting a 30k game in, so take my advice lightly!)

If so, I'd not go with Cataphractii armour, as the squad doesn't have it and he'd slow them down if he has to keep up. Actually, Lernaean's have cataphractii armor, so the Praetor wouldn't be slowing them down if he had it.

ImpiousSmart Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Ah, my bad! Thought they had Tartaros. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/#findComment-3670396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terimus Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Its all good. But even if they did have Tartaros he would still keep up fine unless they made a run move, which doesnt seem to happen a whole lot Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/#findComment-3672581 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiR Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 For Coils of the Hydra you have to take Dedicatet Transport for all youre Infantry or they must have the ability to Infiltrade when you write youre List, even BEVORE you choose youre Mutual Taktik trait. So sy but it wont work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289961-2500pts-alpha-legion-list/#findComment-3674317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molokai Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 That's not true. Fw have answered many emails saying you are able to take infiltrate AFTER you choose your trait.

Molokai Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I imagine we'll get an errata when the crusade and legion books are officially released. That's my guess anyway.
