Booth Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Hi, all. I'm going to the Las Vegas Open tournament in February and would like some input on my list so far. I have relatively limited experience with Horus Heresy gaming so I'll take any advice you can give. Lords of War: Roboute Guilliman HQ: Librarian - Mastery Level 3, Void Shield Generator, Force Sword, Bolt Pistol Legion Command Squad(3) - Cataphractii Armour, Three Chainfists Elite: Contemptor Mortis - Khares Assault Cannons Contemptor Mortis - Khares Assault Cannons Troop: Legion Veterans(10) - Melta Bombs, Vexilla, Power Fist, Two Missile Launchers, Rhino Legion Veterans(10) - Melta Bombs, Vexilla, Power Fist, Two Missile Launchers, Rhino Fast Attack: Locoturs Storm Squad(8) - Power Fist Heavy Support: Legion Predator - Plasma Executioner Turret, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Machine Spirit Legion Predator - Plasma Executioner Turret, Lascannon Sponsons, Machine Spirit Vindicator So here's my logic: The Predators have the Machine Spirit so the turret can fire at a different target than the turrets. The Veterans will most likely take Sniper most of the time and fire their missiles out of the hatch until at least some of the threats to infantry has been dealt with. Guilliman is with the Command Squad and Librarian for some protection and run forward to crack heads (I was thinking going with Telekinesis with the Librarian to try for the 12" move power to get them up quicker). Guilliman can also offer one unit type a special rule, so giving the Contemptor Mortis Khares Assault Cannons Tank Hunter can really do damage to near anything with an armour value. I'll finish by saying that this is based on units I think are cool, so this is the start I'm going with that can then be refined into an effective army. Thanks for the input!

Demus Ragnok Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 FYI librarians were FAQed to only ML2 and cannot be a compulsory HQ.

God-Potato of Mankind Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 FYI librarians were FAQed to only ML2 and cannot be a compulsory HQ. Yup. What is your plan for G-dog and friends? Footslogging a Primarch is not a great idea, prepare to be focus fired into oblivion.

Reyner Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Also the Command Squad cannot be taken in Cataphractii can they? Thought you needed a Praetor/Primarch in Terminator armour for that.

Booth Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 Alrighty, so I'm thinking drop the Librarian, Command Squad, and Vindicator and replace them with a Land Raider Phobos for Guilliman to ride in and add in a Praetor in Cataphractii with Chainfist, Combi-melta, Digital weapons to also hitch a ride in the Phobos. I'm not entirely sold on the Praetor but he looks good for flipping tanks and beating squads.
