Fire Golem Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 So this is my first 30k army list I've built, how does it look? Praetor [175] Rite of War: Hammer of Olympia Melta Bombs Iron Halo Warsmith Archeotech Pistol Paragon Blade Centurion [150] Artificer Armour Melta Bombs Boarding Shield Volkite Serpenta Thunder Hammer Siege Breaker Tactical Squad [275] 20 Men Nuncio Vox Melta Bombs Power Weapon Tactical Squad [275] 20 Men Nuncio Vox Melta Bombs Power Weapon Tactical Squad [260] 20 Men Nuncio Vox Breacher Siege Squad [250] 10 Men Thunder Hammer Melta Bombs Apothecary Detachment [135] 3 Apothacaries Contemptor [225] Extra Armour (free due to rite of war) Havoc Launcher Chainfist with Melta Plasma Cannon Tyrant Siege Squad [300] 5 Men 1 Chainfist Iron Havocs [320] 10 Men Augury Scanner Melta Bombs Autocannons Sicaran Battle Tank [135] 2500pts. I don't know how effective it is, I just went with what I thought fit the IW theme. Also, can someone check I meet the requirements for the rite of war? I think I do... Thanks.

Triacom Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I'm a bit iffy on what advice to give here, because it looks like a good fluffy list, the Rite of War is covered, and you've got all of your major bases covered (for the most part), but it looks a bit lacking in punch, I think you would be better to drop the breacher siege squad in favour of upgrades, missile launchers for the havocs (krak instant killing MEQ's and ignoring their base armour saves trumps two shots in my opinion, and flakk provides much better AA support) adding Lascannons to the Sicaran, and getting some more terminators (otherwise you're paying a premium for the squad) if not another dreadnought.

Triacom Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Now that's a good list too (better than the first one in my opinion), but I think you should keep the apothecaries, they're pretty vital for keeping footslogging squads alive, and you can get the points from losing 2 terminators, otherwise that looks like a really good list, tough (with the apothecaries) and with lots of firepower.

Fire Golem Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 Okay thanks, I'll swap those termies for the apocatharies again, and then I roughly know what I'm gonna buy :D thank you!

Triacom Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 No problem, it should only take two terminators to get them, and ideally they should be able to shoot to death anything that approaches them so you don't need any extra CC defence. I think I'd just take them vanilla, then just spend the remaining 10 points on whatever else you want.
