Hello there fellow upstanding members of B&C after faffing about for a while with list building on Battlescribe and trying almost every combination i can think of i have finally settled on a list i'm happy with, but i warn you its utterly stupid ;) . At the 2k points level it uses both COH and Alpharius and while i'm aware this is probably a silly idea it should be a blast to play. So here it is folks my ridiculous Alpha Legion list: Any tweaks, refinements and criticisms are most welcome.

Tactics are thus: the Master of signal will go with the HS squad backfield and blow crap up with his bombardment whilst giving them a BS boost to pop open pesky LRs Spartans etc. Alpharius will use his sneaky beaky deployment and ride with either the temries or the blob tactical squad and get stuck in. The termies are pretty simple they'll trudge slowly up the board and fire an ungodly amount of missles at anything that looks at them funny. the two Metal Box squads will be on rapid response duty and respond to threats (or take objectives) as theyre needed. The blob will infiltrate up the board and pick off small outlying units rapiers etc. The contemptor is also pretty straightforward and will sit midfield and mow anything down with his Kheres. So there you have it. Yeah i know its not a particularly competitive list but the Tyrant termies sound hilarious and i love Alpharius! I probably wont win much but at least i'll have fun losing ;) cheers.

Uurgh, dammit Forgeworld! Forgot they'd FAQ'ed that thanks for reminding me bud. Since i dont have that many vehicles in the army i'm not certain the forge lord is worth it just for rad grenades so i think i'll whack in a vigilator instead to roll with the blob as he's pretty fluffy for AL and i like his rules :P 

That was initially going to be my suggestion, but both he and Alpharius have Scout & Stealth, so you're doubling up on abilities there...

 

Chaplain is an option, but Alpharius is already Fearless and everything is going to have Preferred Enemy, so the Hatred re-rolls are less exciting.

 

I'm probably taking Siege Tyrants too, so a Siege Breaker Terminator is in my list to give them Tank Hunters. :)
