Varyn Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Hey guys This is my first go at a loyalist post isstvan list with Shadrak Meduson. As usual, I am trying to mix a good amount of fluffy units whilst maintaining some competitiveness in the list. I don’t have much experience with iron hands so any help would be great. 2500 points, Head of the Gorgon HQ Shadrak Meduson (goes in the spartan) Damocles Command Rhino Elites - 5 Gorgon terminators, 2 chainfist, 2 power fists, Spartan assault tank, flare shield, armoured ceramite - 5 Gorgon terminators, 2 chainfist, 2 power fists, land raider phobos, armoured ceramite, multimelta - Contemptor with conversion beamer, extra armour - 2 graviton rapier batteries Troops 10 tactical marines, artificer armour, melta bombs, rhino, multi melta 10 tactical marines, artificer armour, melta bombs, rhino, multi melta Heavy Support 2 predators with melta cannons Vindicator, laser destroyer The idea is to outflank the predators, spartan and landraider to put pressure on the flanks whilst the vindicator, grav batteries soften up armoured targets and the troops move to secure objectives, supported by the contemptor I'm not sure this covers all the bases, but it looks quite fun to play, 8 vehicles, 2 artillery and a dreadnought. I'd be grateful for any feedback Thanks for reading Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330289-iron-hands-head-of-the-gorgon-with-shadrak/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 You don't have many scoring units (just twenty tacticals), it might be a good idea to drop 5 of the gorgons in favour of a legion terminator squad which can score. If the contemptor is to be moving around the board, there's no point taking the heavy conversion beamer as it can't fire it on the move. You have no AA in the list so maybe take a contemptor mortis instead?

Caillum Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 ^ Don't do that. Gorgons have Implacable Advance, so you're covered for scoring units. I agree with the conversion beamer though - it's cheaper to get a Predator with one. Maybe make him a Kheres Contemptor-Mortis to support the Tacticals? Adds some anti air, and 12 S6 Rending shots are amazing at dealing with all sorts lf targets! I would put dozer blades on all tanks except the Vindicator. Don't really need the multi-melta on the Phobos, as it's going to be moving a lot. Looks good otherwise!

K3nn3rs Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Just hide that command rhino really, really well! A good opponent will prioritise it's destruction T1, combined with some unlucky reserve rolls (which always seem to happen to me) and you'll have your army arrive late/ disjointed.
