Nicodemus Doloroso Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Well, I'm on my way! God my hands on a box of the new tactical marines today. Also swiped a set of the data cards. Placed an order for 20 32mm bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I got myself 10 JP, 10 SG to turn into 2 CS and conversion material today. Good thing our local GW store owner likes me so much that he gives me a healthy number of 32mm bases. They really do look better on SM sized models.

Nicodemus Doloroso Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yeah, unfortunately my local shop owner didn't have any 32mm bases in stock, hence the order. Happy building, brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 The building is one thing. Chopping is something else entirely. Looking forward to that one ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodemus Doloroso Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Here's my roughly 1500 point list I am going to start working on that I can bring to Astronomi-con: Dante Sanguinary Priest w/ jump pack Sanguinary Guard x8 - 2x IP, 1x fist Tacticals x10 - missile launcher, plasma, combi-plasma Tacticas x10 - missile launcher, grav, combi-flamer Squad Raphen - Death Company x5 w/ TH, fist, sword, IP (troop choice) ASM x8 - melta x2, fist, combat shield ASM x8 - flamer x2, LC, hand flamer It even scores 19/20 on Astronomi-con's composition. I could score 20/20 if I dropped the ASM squads down to 5 apiece and used the points saved for a lvl 1 jump librarian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I am not sold on foot-slogging tacs. Also, why Combat Shield? And why Squad Raphem? Why not take more DC in elite, with less upgrades. Just one Fist would do it. Rest looks legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodemus Doloroso Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Foot slogging tacs because this is my travel army so I want it to fit in a case that can be carry on luggage on a plane. Therefore, no vehicles. Squad Raphen is to save myself a 2 point composition hit that astronomica-con (the only tourney I would travel for) would impose for over 300 pts in elites. Why combat shield? Why not i guess. The list clocks in at 1499 points. It's either the shield or a random melta bomb somewhere seems to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
