lionofjudah Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 One thing that's glaring is the quad launchers are fairly static... I could also drop the quads/contemptor and anvillus for a Leviathan with CML in a DDP for even more big dude love and all tracked marines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 So, Im not super familiar with the ranking system in the knight houses but believe that Ive done a good job of balancing each particular pilot with a good set of trait benefits for his platform. The Seneschal I imagine to be piloting this graceful knight of the Cerastus chassis and the atrapos variant packs RIDONKULOUS firepower and balances it by bringing all of his weapons to bear as close as possible as soon as possible. The occular augmentics rerolls of 1's on D weapons at 12" or less means the 8" range of the lascutter will be of greater use... The seneschals Marter knight rule means I have a +1 to WS and BS and increase the invul save by 1 (giving him a 3+ invul facing save!!) meaning he is piloting a ws/bs 5 knight with weapons that are meant to absolutely NOPE other knights and super heavies which with macro-extinction targeting protocols count as twin-linked...yes please!. Our lovely preceptor has been piloting her archeon for several years now and as the oracle of battle she has Interceptor with D6 template hits and Overwatch (with a Hellstorm cannon)!!! I look forward to seeing what she can do with this. The latest edition to my knightly trio, the Arlabaster in a questoris crusader. This suits weapons are calibrated to have tank hunters and if he doesnt move in the preceding movement phase...skyfire with everything not just the twin icarus. I have decided that this knight will pair his avenger gatling cannon with the rapid fire battlecannon for longer range and ordnance 2 large blasts at 72"s.... I toy with the thermal cannon idea for strength 9 large blast melta'ing those that laught at AP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em_en_oh_pee Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I am a fan of the Styrix for my Arbalester slot, but a Warden or Crusader aren't bad either when they have the Avenger. Unfortunately, in a Questoris Knight list you can't swap the Thermal Cannon for a Battle Cannon. You can only swap the Avenger, so you might want to just go with a Warden (retaining the Str D CCW) and toss some points around elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orz Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Is this list legal? If the Knights are an allied detachment, you need at least one of them to have a Troops rank, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Blackwood Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 It's is correct in that you need one troop class knight to make the list legal I would shift the Acheron personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nusquam Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 The Acheron wants to be pretty close. I would make it a Ulahan(sp?) for scout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Blackwood Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 The Acheron wants to be pretty close. I would make it a Ulahan(sp?) for scout because the atropos is going to be your seneschal And you want the buffs of the arbalester on the crusader The only option is to slot the Acheron as the troop choice in order to make the list legal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
