Lanky27 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 3k orbital assault as I've given up on the Angels wrath idea. HQ - 280 Praetor - Cataphractii terminator armour, paragon blade, digital lasers, grenade harness - 180 Consul - articifer armour, melta bombs, refractor field, power axe, volkite charger - 100 Elites - 1205 Contemptor Dreadnought - dccw(2), graviton gun(2), drop pod - 270 Contemptor Dreadnought - dccw(2), graviton gun(2), drop pod - 270 Legion destroyers(10) - missile launchers(2) - 335 Dedicated drop pod transport Red butcher(6) - chainfists(2) - 340 Troops - 793 Tactical marines(10) - extra ccw, vexilia, nuncio Vox, power fist, art armour - 250 Dedicated drop pod transport Tactical marines(10) - extra ccw, vexilia, nuncio Vox, power fist, art armour - 250 Dedicated drop pod transport Tactical marines(19) - extra ccw, vexilia, power fist, art armour - 313 Fast attack - Storm eagle assault ship - TL Lascannons -250 Javelin attack speeder(2) - Lascannon, HK missiles(2) - 190 Heavy support - Fire raptor gunship - reaper autocannon, extra armour, hellstrike missiles - 250 2968 So the basic idea is to drop the tacticals and destroyers in turn 1 with the tacticals moving towards objectives but all squads staying as well protected as possible. Hopefully the destroyers can start weakening any threats with their rad missiles. Then in fashionable order drop pod and deepstrike as much as possible, praetors and butchers going towards command targets with the dreads destroying armour. Storm eagle drops the big tactical blob and then it teams up with the fire raptor and javelins for air and armour hunting. So let me know what you think, I don't get to play regularly so testing will be difficult but any suggestions would be great.

Lanky27 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Im not sure if I've got enough fire power to handle primarchs or LOW? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310787-3k-orbital-assault-warhounds/#findComment-4118900 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think primarch a maybe blobbed with the eagle squad/praetor- hit them with destroyers first and drop dreads on them as well if needed. Otherwise drop the dreads on LOW and let them wreck face. Go big or go home;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310787-3k-orbital-assault-warhounds/#findComment-4119020 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fangbanger Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Is it possible to take speeders with that row? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/310787-3k-orbital-assault-warhounds/#findComment-4119849 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanky27 Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 @fangbanger - I'm pretty sure because they have deepstrike that they can as the rules Say only things that don't have deepstrike can't be chosen.
