ronin_cse Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Hey all! Just kind of coming up with an IF/Custodes to work towards that includes mostly what I already have.

K3nn3rs Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Looks cool. I'd suggest a paragon blade on your praetor rather then a chain fist. Also be aware RAW command squads can't take storm shields - though your opponents may not mind. I'd also look shifting some points so that you can have some reserve manipulation, if you keep the HSS I'd go with a bunker with a comms relay or command rhino.

The praetor mostly has that load out because he's from the B@C box and is already built and partially painted ;). I agree a paragon blade is way better. I should be ok with the shields in my group as there's really no good reason they can't take them other than poor rules writing. Why a command rhino with the HSS? I think I will add a bunker down the line though, would help with the HSS a lot and is of course very fluffy for IFs.

K3nn3rs Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Sorry - I meant the command rhino is a good alternative to the bunker & comms relay.

ronin_cse Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Would I maybe be better off moving the Cataphractii to their own squad and giving them teleporters as well and then giving the LR to the Tartaros terminators? That gives me two terminator troops and the Cataphractii will be able to weather the shooting they will get upon arriving much better than the Tartaros ones.

K3nn3rs Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Definitely! IMO, cataphractii suit the deep striking/ fire support role much more due to the 4++.
