RedInventor Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 So I have been working on a list for a tournament coming up here in the end of April and I have changed it like 10 million times. So here it is: +++ The Reaping Tournament Idea (2500pts) +++ ++ Legiones Astartes: Crusade Army List (Age of Darkness) (2500pts) ++ + HQ (360pts) + Deathshroud Terminator Squad (210pts) [5x Deathshroud Terminators] Legion Centurion (150pts) [Artificer Armour, Deathshroud Power Scythe, Melta Bombs, Rad Grenades, Refractor Field] ··Consul [siege Breaker] + Troops (580pts) + Legion Heavy Support Squad (210pts) [Chem-munitions, Heavy Flamers, Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier, 6x Legion Space Marines] Legion Tactical Squad (185pts) [Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier, 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines] Legion Tactical Squad (185pts) [Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier, 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines] + Elites (310pts) + Legion Quad Launcher Support Battery (160pts) [2x Legion Rapier, Phosphex Canister Shot] Legion Rapier Weapons Battery (150pts) ··Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [Graviton Cannon] ··Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [Graviton Cannon] + Heavy Support (825pts) + Deredeo Pattern Dreadnought (220pts) [Aiolos Missile Launcher, Chem-munitions, Twin-linked Heavy Flamer] Grave Warden Terminator Squad (295pts) [2x Chainfist, 6x Grave Warden Terminator] ··Chem-master [Chainfist, Rad Grenades] Legion Artillery Tank Squadron (310pts) [Legion Medusa, Legion Medusa] + Legion + Legion Astartes [Traitor, XIV: Death Guard] + Lord of War (425pts) + Mortarion the Reaper (425pts) ··Master of the Legion [The Reaping] Created with BattleScribe (http://www.battlescribe.net) The idea is to provide a lot of targets to choose from while controlling their maneuverability using phosphex. As I have stated in previous posts, I don't have a ton of game experience so all help is appreciated. This list includes most of the units I own with exception of a couple HQ's, a Spartan, a couple Contemptors, and about 15 Cataphractii. Anywho, can't wait to hear your thoughts! -Red Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320614-2500-point-the-reaping-tournament-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Loss Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Not sure if having both Terminator units - armed with short-ranged weaponry and unable to run in The Reaping - without a transport is a good idea.

Enigami Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I second Loss. I really like the list other than the termie situation. I believe you should drop one of the squad and buy a transport for the other. I like Dshroud better so I'd probably lean towards excluding the wardens, but it's your call. Good luck!

Charlo Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 You have a rather defensive force, so I'd play to that strength. I'd say keep the Wardens and give them a LR Proteus. That way you can zoom forward a little into the game, and dump them into firing range / on an objective that they bow score on. Your enemy can try to dislodge them, but it's a tough job, especially with assault. Between the overwatch and forcing disordered charges and powerfists hitting back, even justeraian will have a hard time clearing you out bar massed combi plasma. Or make it a spartan and do much the same but be a bit more offensive.

RedInventor Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 Thanks for all the responses guys, the terminator situation has been driving me crazy! I have rewritten this list a ton of times trying to figure them out. I bought the Spartan for them to ride around in but it is a ton of points. I haven't been able to build a list that has it+party without dropping either the heavy flamer guys or a set of rapiers. I like the Grave Wardens because I do feel like they fit the theme well, yet I also feel like the Deathshroud would help with my lacking offense. It's been driving me crazy, anyone have any ideas?

Fangbanger Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Realistically I think one terminator unit needs to go to pay for the Spartan. To get another lr if you want to take both drop the rappiers. They both function best at shirt range/assault so you need to get them thier first. If you just take one maybe take the Spartan with the grave wardens backed up by Morty as he can do the close combat biz on his own if need be Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320614-2500-point-the-reaping-tournament-help/#findComment-4342403 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedInventor Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 How about: +++ Reaping Tournament (2502pts) +++ ++ Legiones Astartes: Crusade Army List (Age of Darkness) (2502pts) ++ + HQ (162pts) + Legion Centurion (162pts) [Cataphractii Terminator Armour with Combi-bolter and Power Weapon, Chem-munitions, Combi-Weapon, Deathshroud Power Scythe, Phosphex Bombs, Rad Grenades] Consul [siege Breaker] + Troops (370pts) + Legion Tactical Squad (185pts) [Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier, Legion Tactical Sergeant, 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines] Legion Tactical Squad (185pts) [Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier, Legion Tactical Sergeant, 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines] + Elites (310pts) + Legion Quad Launcher Support Battery (160pts) [2x Legion Rapier, Phosphex Canister Shot] Legion Rapier Weapons Battery (150pts) Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [Graviton Cannon] Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [Graviton Cannon] + Heavy Support (1235pts) + Deredeo Pattern Dreadnought (220pts) [Aiolos Missile Launcher, Chem-munitions, Twin-linked Heavy Flamer] Grave Warden Terminator Squad (705pts) [2x Chainfist, 8x Grave Warden Terminator, Heavy Flamer with Chem-munitions] Chem-master [Chainfist] Legion Spartan Assault Tank [Armoured Ceramite, Chem-munitions, Flare Shield, Twin-linked Heavy Flamer] Legion Artillery Tank Squadron (310pts) [Legion Medusa, Legion Medusa] + Legion + Legion Astartes [Traitor, XIV: Death Guard] + Lord of War (425pts) + Mortarion the Reaper (425pts) [Primarch] Master of the Legion [The Reaping] Created with BattleScribe (http://www.battlescribe.net) It's the only way I could fit in a Spartan, so no more heavy flamer dudes but the spartan should add some nice armor.

Fangbanger Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Looks better I think, nice rounded list that can tick most boxes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320614-2500-point-the-reaping-tournament-help/#findComment-4342731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronDrake28 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Wait, chem-munitions give Shred and Gets Hot, right? Surely it's a pointless upgrade on the Deredeo's twin-linked heavy flamer?

Lord Asvaldir Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's free, so no harm done really in taking it on a deredeo. Unlikely to ever be used, but if the deredeo ever gets charged it will be nice to have heavy flamers with shred.

Lord Asvaldir Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Aa I forgot the deredeo's flamers were twin linked, pointless upgrade indeed then.
