3k Alpha Legion, assistance needed for a "end goal army".

[Brother Captain Lucian]

So a friend of mine is jumping into 30k with the new box and he wanted a end goal army to build towards. This is what he has come up with.

The thing i see with this, is that most of his infantry wants to infiltrate, but that leaves the dreadnoughts quite back and alone. Mainly as they arent equipped with long range weapons.

Criticism and comments would be great

Apologies for the delay replying to this!

 

Exodus is cool, but a bit useless unfortunately. If his model is amazing when it's released, I'll probably grab him. But until then, leave him at home.

 

Headhunters are actually Fast Attack. They can take also a Dreadclaw as a DT, giving Dynat a good place to work from. Try this instead:

 

4 Headhunters: heavy bolter; + 1 Headhunter Prime (artificer armour; power fist & dagger; melta bombs), Anvillus Pattern Dreadclaw Drop Pod. 315

 

Cheaper by 35 points, the Prime has an extra attack, comes in 1st Turn and Dynat gains Preferred Enemy (Infantry). You will also have a free Elite slot, allowing you to turn 1 Kheres Contemptor into a Mortis for anti-air.

 

If you're going for 20-man Tactical Squads, you should at least give them a Vexilla and additional combat blades. May as well add power daggers to the Sergeants too.

 

If your going to mix roles on the Predators, give the odd-one-out Machine Spirit, so it can target something else.

 

Hope this helps!
