Tactics are pretty simple, push for first turn, Consider deploying the Terminators/Command squad depending on what the enemy has firepower wise. First Wave is: Veterans, Seekers, Leviathan and Heavy Support squad (With Librarian) unless theres a compelling reason otherwise :) Sorry if the formatting is awful, my work pcs tend to squash things :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3nn3rs Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I might be missing something but is the list legal? How do the terminators deploy (I thought everything had to be able to deep strike in an OA list)? If I'm wrong and the list is ok I'd suggest the following: You need to add armoured ceramite to the leviathan - it will help protect your investment. I'd make the terminators all have chain fists - this appears to be an unpopular option to many but for an extra 20pts you'd have an unit that can take on superheavies, spartans and knights with some chance of success - only your leviathan has this capability and at 3000pts you'll likely come across more then one tough unit per army. I'd also look at making your command sqd all power weapons (axes) for that AP2 punch. To get the points I'd consider reducing the seekers and your heavy support sqd slightly. If you need another pod (dreadclaw) to make your list legal I'd drop the moriat or librarian for the points. I'd probably do this anyway as it makes your terminators more dangerous (deep strike turn 1, charge out of the pod turn 2) it would also take your number of pods up to 9, allowing 4 to drop turn 1!

They get DS in Orbital strike lists :) If I'm wrong and the list is ok I'd suggest the following: You need to add armoured ceramite to the leviathan - it will help protect your investment. I have put a lot of thought into that one but ultimately our Meta tends to veer away from anyone using Melta for AT due to so much ceramite! Im hoping thats still true at WHW, last time i was there i largely fought Mechanicum it seemed :) I'd make the terminators all have chain fists - this appears to be an unpopular option to many but for an extra 20pts you'd have an unit that can take on superheavies, spartans and knights with some chance of success - only your leviathan has this capability and at 3000pts you'll likely come across more then one tough unit per army. I'd also look at making your command sqd all power weapons (axes) for that AP2 punch. To get the points I'd consider reducing the seekers and your heavy support sqd slightly. Ive run an all Chainfist unit before and it tends to be overkill, that said it was before Superheavies were so prevalent but i do like mixing up initiatives a bit, especially obvious in the Command squad where ive found Sabres more reliable than Power swords given the messes they tend to end up in :D As for reducing ill admit those two units are mostly in because i like the models, its really obvious how expensive Seekers and Destroyers are compared to Veterans when lined up together! If you need another pod (dreadclaw) to make your list legal I'd drop the moriat or librarian for the points. I'd probably do this anyway as it makes your terminators more dangerous (deep strike turn 1, charge out of the pod turn 2) it would also take your number of pods up to 9, allowing 4 to drop turn 1! The Moritat i definitely struggled with but when it works, it worrrrrks! :D Same for pods, its just squeezing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
