Ishagu Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 So I'm thinking of running this list in a game next week. I can proudly run it 100% WYSIWYG and fully painted which is nice, and I wanted it to look more like a Legion - hence replacing two Tac Squads in Rhinos for a big 20 man blob... HQ: -Centurion, Chaplain Consul, Artifacer Armour, Refractor Field, Plasma Pistol Troops: -20 man Tactical Squad, Sgt with Artifacer Armour and Power Fist -5 Invectarus Suzerains, Landraider Phobos with Armoured Ceramite and Multi-Melta -5 Man Tactical Support Squad, Plasma Guns, Rhino with pintle Multi-Melta Elites: -Apothecary, Artifacer Armour, Augery Scanner -Apothecary, Artifacer Armour -Cortus Contemptor, Kheres Assault Cannon -2 Quad Mortars, Shatter Shells Heavy Support: -Deredeo, Autocannons, Ailos Missiles -Legion Sicaran, Las-Cannon Sponsons -Legion Sicaran, Las-Cannon Sponsons Lord of War: -Primarch Roboute Guilliman So this isn't 100% optimised as I could spam more Quad Mortars instead of the Dread which will be advancing behind the Landraider. An apothecary will be assigned to the Suzerains and to the large Tactical squad. The idea is to hammer the opponent with volumes of decent firepower, whilst looking like a genuine 30k force on the table :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327067-thematic-30k-ultramarines-for-upcoming-game-2500pts/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runefyre Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Looks like loads of fun right there! Not cheesey in the slightest, but with enough staying power that you should have a blast in a thematic environment. I have to say it consistently boggles my little brain to think about just how many more models I could bring in a Gladius....

Caillum Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I am leery of not taking dozer blades on Tanks. Even on Rhinos, as I have no luck with their Repair rolls! Apart from that, looks like a fun, balanced list. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327067-thematic-30k-ultramarines-for-upcoming-game-2500pts/#findComment-4538875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyner Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Are you using a Rite of War with the list? Looks alright at least :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327067-thematic-30k-ultramarines-for-upcoming-game-2500pts/#findComment-4539071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted October 22, 2016 Author Share Posted October 22, 2016 No Rite of War - in truth I find them all too limiting.

The Pounder Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I second that! I find with the Primarch's rules allowing Suzerains to be taken as troops you can fit a lot of the Legion's flavour into a smaller force. Let us know how you get on with this list. I have a game coming up soon and I might just try some large blocks of tacticals.
