librisrouge Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I think you're a bad man and should feel bad. Of course, this being the machanicus forum you probably had emotions replaced with a calculator ages ago so I wouldn't sweat it much. I like those three knights and they make for a brutal list at only 1200, when many enemies will have a hard time countering them. Knights, moreso than other factions, tend to win big or lose. Either the enemy can deal with multiple SHWs or it can't. At 1200, it very often can't. That being said, it does matter what enemy you face. Anything relying on +3 saves to be swearing a blue streak as you just delete whole units with that Castigator and Archeron. High AV will likely make you sweat in return if they've got the guns to fight back. Flyers too will give you troubles. Play a couple of games and see how it goes. However, listen to the other players. It is possible you'd be really upsetting a lot of them playing this sort of list and that isn't a good thing. It needs to be a fun game for both players. As one of my favorite blogs likes to say, "You're playing with other players, not against them."

nziv Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Agree with Librisrouge. If you spring this up on someone in a friendly game of HH some feathers will get ruffled. Alternately if you give your opponent a heads up and they are fine with it no issues, except that you might see a bunch of all melta support squads dropping from the sky and cutting your force to shreds turn 1... So it's a little hard to get a good game here but if you play with nice folks who know what you are bringing or are fine with "anything goes", have fun.

Sure thing,I mostly ask if they're ok with playing againts knights but I need to test play a bit. librisrouge 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/315034-1200-pts-of-house-terryn/#findComment-4201897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
