AlphariusOmegon108 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 for that price of your legion champion... Just run him as preator with Iron halo and paragorn blade and sonic shrieker. You can use the same model but he is WAY better in game ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305472-ec-1500-help/#findComment-3995541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstalker Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Well, the strong picks out of that list are definitely the Lightning (pref with a full load of Kraken), the Contemptor Mortis with twin Kheres, the Scorp, and the Fire Raptor. Whatever list you put together should ideally have at least three of those in it. I don't think I would double up on the flyers unless you run the EC RoW and bring them in on turn 2 guaranteed, or unless you can scare up a ADL with comms array from somewhere. Your options for your troops are probably what is going to drive most of your other choices. I see a couple ways forward there: 1. No RoW. 2x10 tacs or 1x20 tacs + 1x10 assault. 2. Pride of the legion, vets in rhinos and/or terminators in a land raider. If all five of those terminators have lightning claws, I'd shy away from using them. Having absolutely no AP2 melee in that squad could turn out really badly. I'm sure they'd slaughter their way through marines, but I'm not sure you can dedicate that many points in this format to just killing marines. If you're going to spend that kind of points, they really need to bring some AP2. IMO, at least. Outriders with plasmaguns are quite expensive. On the one hand, T5 relentless twin linked plasmaguns. On the other hand, 55 points a model. You might end up having to use them anyway, but I wouldn't put them at the top of the list for your possible picks. I've currently got a thing for MSU vets in rhinos, so this is my suggestion: Praetor -Jump Pack, Iron Halo, Paragon Blade, Sonic Shrieker -Pride of the Legion 175 Centurion -Chaplain, Powerfist, Crozius, Jump Pack 125 Contemptor-Mortis -Twin Kheres 180 Veteran Tactical Squad -5 members, Sniper USR, Rhino 160 Veteran Tactical Squad -5 members, Sniper USR, Rhino 160 Legion Assault Squad -10 Members, Sergeant with Thunderhammer, 2 Power Swords 300 Primaris Lightning -4 Kraken Missiles 185 Javelin Attack Speeder (I assume this is what you were talking about?) -Multimelta, Cyclone Missile Launcher, 2 Hunter-Killer Missiles 95 Legion Whirlwind Scorpius 115 The Paragon Blade could be swapped for the spear if you have to be 100% WYSIWYG. Chappy and Praetor go in the assault squad for a fast & fearless assault unit with some AP2 and AP3 in there. Vets in their Rhinos skirmish around the back, using sniper to try and pick off apothecaries/sergeants/etc with support from the Contemptor and Scorpius. Lightning for dealing with any heavy armor, cause I'm sure someone there is going to be running a Spartan that will need popping. The Javelin (assuming it's a Javelin, your description of it was not clear) can potentially outflank an dump a crapton of S8 into the side armor of some backfield unit. Or rip up a heavy support squad, or whatever. Strengths: 1. 5 mobile obj. sec units 2. Strong AA 3. 6 vehicles (even if half of them will die to a stiff breeze). Weak points: 1. If your opponent focuses your vet squads and completely eliminates both, he can score an additional VP from PotL. 2. Assault Squads are overpriced. They're a lot of points for what is mostly a bunch of ablative wounds for your Praetor and Chaplain. If you can get away with some non-WYSIWYG models, field a Praetor in Termintor Armor with Paragon Blade with a 3 man Command Squad in the Phobos instead of the Praetor/Chaplain/Assault Squad specced here.
