Brother Heinrich Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I like the armored fist vibe you have going, however the Contemptor feels like he's the odd man out. The Deredeo to an extent as well. You have 80% of your force rolling forward in a wall of AV14 and then these two random walkers, one of which will be camping, and the other falling behind the line of advance where he can be flanked and take a Lascannon/Neutron Beam/Multi-Melta in the side/ass. Either that or people will just ignore him since he only has a 24" threat range. Personally I'd try to find the points for another Breacher Squad in a Proteus. 4 AV14 vehicles with twin-linked lascannons is nothing to scoff at. Especially when they're all dumping out some tough customers. I will say though that certain Primarchs will likely tear through your main HQ unit if it comes to a stand-up fight.

Your absolutely right and have made some changes. In our group at 2500pts you will definitely be seeing some primarchs (Curze, Ferrus, Russ when he comes out) and Chris god only knows what kind of super heavies Chris will be running. Firedrakes and a Praetor just isn’t going to stand up to that… Vulkan will though lol While I see what you’re saying about the Land raiders I lean on the side that 3 landraiders is fun, all landraiders is just boring, though probably the more competitive choice I can’t go without some kind of contemptor dread on the field. Just love the models too much, if I take a loss here or there for it so be it. 2500pts Sallies HQ: Forgefather Fixes my tanks, can ride in the Spartan or with the pyro’s Troops: 9 Breachers- 2 flamers, Melta bombs Breachers Sgt- MC powerfist, Inferno pistol, Artificer Armor LR Proteus Roll forward, kill tanks, bog down a dangerous unit 9 Tactical Marines 1 Sgt Rhino Troops tax, sit on an objective and maybe get a FotL off 6 Pyroclasts- Melta bombs Warden- MC powerfist LR Proteus Good well rounded unit.

Only real liability seems to be the Mortis, but I’ll just have to eat that if I’m being stubborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
