Donkalleone Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Hi, Im thinking about Army Setups and finally found a TWC one that looks nice to me. I have 1500 Points that are "final" and looking for an Upgrade to 1850 Points. Before the Discussion starts: i know a lot of the usefullness and what the IPTWM can do. So please refrain from starting this to be a generall IPTWM discussion. The Main Idea is Rune Priest Bikers , TWC and CentStar. With The RunePriest going on Biomancy for the Usual Buffs and the CentStar Lib/Tig goes for Telepathy. I have 2 1500pts Army List: CoF + Allied SM The RP join the WGBikers Harald is with the FenWolfs Tig/Lib with Cents in DP SW + Tigurious HQ Harald 190 RP LvL 2 Bike RuneStaff 105 RP LvL 2 Bike RuneStaff 105 Elites 5 WG Bikers 1MeltaBomb 130 5 WG Bikers 1MeltaBomb 130 FA DropPod 35 6 FenWolf + 1 Cyberwolf 66 5 TWC 2 SS 1 Maul 245 HQ Tigurious 165 Troops 5 Scout 4 Snipers Camo 69 HS Cents GravCan Omniscope 260 SW + SM Libarian (RP gain RunicArmor + more Fenwolfs for Harald + 1Sniper) HQ Harald 190 RP LvL 2 Bike RuneStaff 130 RP LvL 2 Bike RuneStaff 130 Elites 5 WG Bikers 1MeltaBomb 130 5 WG Bikers 1MeltaBomb 130 FA DropPod 35 9 FenWolf + 1 Cyberwolf 90 5 TWC 2 SS 1 Maul 245 HQ Libarian LvL 2 90 Troops 5 Scout 5 Snipers Camo 70 HS Cents GravCan Omniscope 260 Going up to 1850 Points i have 2 Ideas: But FIrst: i will add RunicArmor on the TigList and have 300pts over. The Primar SW Option is: 2x IPTWM with 3 Cyberwolves or Making the Allied Detachment a CAD for second HQ and ObjecSec (Loose Sniper Scouts) HQ Captain on Bike (40points left) or ChapterMaster on Bike (Better? Orbital?) Troops 5 Bike Squad 2 GravGuns 5 Bike Squad 2 GravGuns Well that are my Thoughts on this: The IPTWM Variant adds more Wounds on Harald and TWC Units at the Start of the Game and can splinter off for Individual Targets. The IPTWM Will destroy every Armor unit it comes Near and even has a Chance agains MC. The SMCAD Variant adds more Ranged Support (and Bodies) and has Fast Objec Sec Unit for capping. With Which Option would you go? Or do you have a complete different idea?

TheWolfLord Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 If you are going for the Allied cents in a pod you should go Tig as he gives you more than a standard librarian. Based on that list I think I'd prefer the Iron Priests as you don't have any other anti vehicle other than the cents. The list has lots of rending and melta bombs but these don't give you the hitting power a Iron Priest will Actually it's a tough decision as the 2 squads of grav bikes also give you good anti vehicle. The IP can be hidden in units though and can't be an easy target like SM bikes will be. One thing I'd suggest is switching Harald for Canis. Both get the furious charge but Canis will attack first and his rerolling misses and shred make him a beast in a pack of wolves, he has 8-10 attacks on the charge at ap3 rending with reroll misses and wounds. Plus the wolves reroll to hit too. At S5 they make a good vehicle killer too due to the number of hits they'll make Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303387-should-i-add-ironpriesttwm-or-are-there-alternatives-twc/#findComment-3948852 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rift Blade Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Sorry. It's obvious. This is a SW forum so the choice is obvious. IPTWM. You're SW, IPTW can tag along with TWC & split off for seperate targets & they're kick ass. LOL! my 2 cents anyways.

Frater Cornelius Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Usually I am against IP and I would rather go for regular Lord with TWC and no Fenrisian Wolves. My premier choice is to get rid of Sniper Scouts and add drop Tacs on the SM side with plenty of meltas. However, IP can work here. Stick them with four CW each into the bike squads to have some extra wounds. Both ways work just fine.
