IronDrake28 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Rite of War - Pride of the Legion HQ Chaplain - 120pts Artificer Armour Refractor Field Power Weapon Troops Breacher Squad (20 Men) - 425pts 20x Power Sword Veteran Tactical Squad (10 Men) - 240pts Snipers 2x Melta Gun Combi-Melta Rhino - 40pts Combi-Bolter Veteran Tactical Squad (10 Men) - 240pts Snipers 2x Melta Gun Combi-Melta Rhino - 40pts Combi-Bolter Elites Honoured Telemechrus - 255pts Contemptor Dreadnought - 190pts DCCW w/ Combi-Bolter Kheres Assault Cannon Heavy Support Spartan Assault Tank - 295pts Vindicator - 130pts Laser Destroyer Array Vindicator- 130pts Laser Destroyer Array Lord of War Roboute Guilliman - 400pts So the basic idea is to have a wall of armoured targets rolling up the field. The rhinos will keep in front of the vindicators, and Guilliman’s spartan of doom will spearhead the assault. I decided to slap combi-bolters on the rhinos to mark up targets for Interlocking Tactics. The contemptors will try to charge enemies before the breachers to absorb overwatch and, again, let them use Interlocking Tactics. Guilliman will give Tank Hunter to the veteran tactical squads, and probably use his cognis signum on one of them where possible. Also, Telemechrus will be able to offset some of the downsides of the breachers’ hardened armour. Thanks in advance for feedback. :) Edit #1 So I didn't realise that Breacher's weren't Bulky XD, so I've switched out the squishy command squad for a spartan full of swords and shields. In addition the predators have been upgraded to vindicator laser destroyers for some dedicated anti-tank.

caladancid Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 My concern would be how slowly the Breachers move without transports, especially since they are equipped for CC. I love the UM breachers, but I think they need wheels. Are you expecting the Predators to deal with possible super heavies? If so, have you tested that out? I would be worried that they don't have quite enough firepower. I am a little paranoid when it comes to facing superheavies though. You may not see any in your area I guess.

IronDrake28 Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 Hardly any super heavies, except for one guy who fairly regularly uses Imperial Knights. I've had luck with the predators' lascannons in the past. I'm not sure what's good to replace them with though, or if I even need to.
