Maun and the Centurion goes with the Seekers in the Proteus. They infiltrate and scout towards the intended target. Nanyte and Combi-plas ensure total annihilation. The Lighting pops anything big. If it happens to be something like a spartan the contents will receive a S8 AP2 large blast barrage from the Thanatar, who is using Maun's Nightfall for LoS, Enhanced Targetting Array for +1BS and -2 to cover(Target array and Occularis) with forced re-rolls on successful cover saves. Or it just goes after other infantry. The Magos goes with the Thallax and Deep Strike within Maun's 18" no scatter bubble. Between the Thallax Djinn sight and the Occularis, the target unit has -3 to cover when they take 12 S6 AP3 shots and 4 S7 rending shots. The Occularis then fly around where needed. The Fire Raptor will also deep strike using Maun or fly on depending. Just in case it needs to get into a different facing from a Knight or just a good angle. The Proteus will disrupt enemy reserves, or all but guarantee mine between it and Maun. I will position the Occularis' 12" -1 to cover to as many units as possible for the Thanatar and the magos/Thallax while they go infantry hunting. The Tacs infiltrate to either support the vangaurd or tac objectives as the vanguard moves around. The Thralls go for the most dangerous Objective, or just hold a backfield one. Which depends on whether or not I need them as fodder or just to rack up points. Tech priest babysits the Thanatar and keeps it running. Thoughts? Anything any of you have faced that would throw a wrench in the works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Well, its nasty, thats for sure...Seems to me that you've got all your bases covered. If anything, the Thanatar being all by its lonesome as a giant fire magnet will make it a giant fire magnet; if they survive the Alpha Strike, that is.

Nusquam Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 True. I'm banking on it's T8 2+/5++ W4 and the Techs ability to "repair" it. Put it out of LoS and have the rest of the army put pressure on. If I'm facing an Orbital army or something akin to that I'll keep the Thallax and Magos near the Thanatar. The Occulari also give them interceptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Keeping the Centurion as a Blank or will you give him a specialization? Also, how would you deal with AV14 Walls or a Spartan Pain Train? And, at this points level, the potential for 1-2 Knights? The above I feel like you can deal with them if you play smart enough but, how about an AirCav List? At this points level you could make an Angels Wrath list with 5+ Storm Eagles/Fire Raptors. Granted, the probability of ever running into a list like this is nigh impossible, its best to account for it because I know I'll be making one if I ever have the money :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nusquam Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 He was originally a Librarian but I opted for a tech Thrall unit to enhance my scoring and giving the him the Nanyte Blaster. I just dropped the two fists off the the Magos, forgot he came with a power weapon(I'll be using an axe) and upgraded the Raptor with Reapers. I feel it can handle Double Knight lists. I can't see more than two Spartans in an opposing list at this level. One of the two I'll send the Thralls to tarpit. The one that's worth the most I'll Kraken and melt the insides. If it has a Primarch inside I'll send the Thralls to pit it and ignore it. Take out the rest of the army. I've done it before. One power house unit wont win the objective war unless it's Maelstrom and they are lucky. The first version of this had a squadron of two Krios Ven tanks for 8 S9 AP2 Ord shots instead of the Thanatar and Thralls. I'm tempted now to switch out the Raptor or another Kraken Lightning. I might just have enough AP3. Then they could take out Double Knight/Spartans more readily. AirCav I'm not too worried about between the two flyers I have. If they drop any infantry near the Magos and Crew they're going to have a bad time. If I ever see an Angels Wrath RoW they deserve to win ha.

Slips Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Well, there you go; you've got plans to cover all your bases so honestly, everything looks good. And dont you worry, when the Blood Angels get the HH Treatment, no matter what Legion stuff they get I'll be making an Angels Wrath list for them :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nusquam Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 They'll probably have their own better version ha So I realized the Servitors don't come with Servo arms so I had to shift things around.

tetsuokills Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Will look at the list properly when I get home but it looks pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brofist Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Drop the cortex controller from the magos. He's going to be flying around shooting dudes. You can use those points to give your thantar paragon of metal, which would help it survive even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nusquam Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Ah I thought Thallax had a Cortex, they just have their own fancy thing that's different. The points I save isn't enough for PoM on the Thanatar. I'm going to play around with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
