explosive zebra Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm looking into starting a 30k army, here's the iron fists list I came up with: Legion Centurion Delegatus Cataphractii armour Cyber familiar Combi-plas Thunder hammer ROW: head of the gorgon Gorgon terminators 2 chain fists Graviton gun Cyber familiar Dread claw drop pod Legion tactical squad Power fist Artificer armour Combi plas Rhino Legion tactical squad Power fist Artificer armour Combi plas Rhino Legion tactical support squad 3 extra marines Artificer armour Power fist Combi plas Land raider proteus Multi melta Dozer blade Armoured ceramite Sicaran battle tank Las cannon sponsons Armoured ceramite Sicaran venator Armoured ceramite Deredeo Aiolos pattern missile launcher Armoured ceramite So the delegatus joins the support squad in the raider, partially because there's no other place for him but also to add some extra punch in cc which when paired with the over watch from 7 flamers could be some good punch. I'm looking to make a decently competitive list while still using the units I like.

Emperors Teeth Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 At 2000pts and with that much wargear, you might as well replace the Delegatus with a Praetor. Don't forget the Delegatus now has a free Master-crafted upgrade for one weapon as of the new FAQ.Legion Centurion; Delegatus + Cataphractii armour, Cyber-familiar, Combi-weapon, Thunder hammer= 142ptsLegion Praetor + Iron Halo, Cyber-familiar, combi-weapon, Thunder Hammer= 175ptsThe both have the same save 2+/3++, but the Praetor has no movement penalties and benefits from significantly better stats (increased WS, W, A, Ld) and can roll two Warlord Traits picking one. Sure, you have to find 33pts, but it is probably worth it. It's a shame you need 50 more points to get a Land Raider Phobos (I like Proteus' too, but it's not an assault vehicle). The flamers being assault weapons and with a melee character would really benefit from being able to charge on dismounting.

Trydragon Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Looks Solid to me, you got AT, AA and mobile troops never tried the Flamer support unit you have too let us know if it works out. Suggestions from me Orth he cheap and awesome for putting in ether of the Sicaran's he just makes your army better.

Frostmourne Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Did you intend the Flamers to be Grav guns? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318593-2000pt-iron-hands/#findComment-4287032 Share on other sites More sharing options...
explosive zebra Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Here's a version with a praetor: Praetor Iron halo Cyber familiar Combi-plas Paragon blade ROW: head of the gorgon Gorgon terminators chain fist Graviton gun Cyber familiar Dread claw drop pod Legion tactical squad Power fist Artificer armour Combi plas Rhino Legion tactical squad Power fist Artificer armour Combi plas Rhino Legion tactical support squad 4 extra marines Artificer armour Power fist Land raider proteus Armoured ceramite Sicaran battle tank Las cannon sponsons Armoured ceramite Sicaran venator Armoured ceramite Deredeo Aiolos pattern missile launcher Armoured ceramite So i lost a chain fist, combi plas, and the proteus dozer and Pinole weapon but got the praetor and an extra support marine so I can lay down 8 flamer templates, hopefully I'll get world burner on the praetor for shredding flamers.
