Death Guard Terminator List

[Varyn]

Hey guys

 

This is a fluffy list I've been working on to try and use lots of terminators. I know that using lots of terminators isn't usually optimal, but it's intended to be a fun list that can hold it's own! Suggestions are most welcome.

 

Pride of the Legion

 

HQ

Chaplain, tartaros armour, chainfist

Primus Medicase, tartaros armour, power scythe

 

Elites

Quad mortar, shatter shells

Quad mortar, shatter shells

 

Troops

4 deathshroud, land raider phobos (chaplain joins these)

8 tartaros terminators, 2 chainfists, 3 power fists, thunder hammer, power scythe (primus medicae joins these)

7 machine killer vets, melta gun, 6 combi melta, artificer armour, power scythe, rhino

7 marksmen vets, flamer, 6 combi flamer, artificer armour, power scythe, rhino

 

Heavy

5 grave wardens, 2 chainfists, power scythe

vindicator

vindicator

 

LoW 

Mortarion

 

 

Mortarion joins the tartaros unit and sneaks off if necessary to cause mayhem!

 

Footslogging the large terminator unit isn't ideal and I'd probably look at add a spartan in to get to 3k, hopefully with the primus medicae and Mortarion at the front, they should be able to survive to get into assault.

 

Thanks for reading!

Primus Medicae cannot take a power fist as an option, meaning that they also can't take a power scythe.

 

I wouldn't footslog your largest Terminator unit (although you're already aware of the problem), and I'd probably be inclined to make sure the Vindicators are Laser Destroyers as DG are naturally pretty competent in the 'slaughtering anything with a pulse' category.

 

Footslogging Grave Wardens is also a really bad idea, unless you're purely intending them to be a backfield objective unit - feels like a waste of their potential though. Also don't believe a Grave Warden Chem-Master can legally take a scythe.

 

Add an extra body or two to the veterans so they can absorb a bullet or two if need be. In a 3k game, I'll be surprised if a rhino can deliver them into position.

 

All I can think of atm, the list isn't bad at all though other than the glaring giant footslogging Terminator unit

"Any character or independent character eligible to take a powerfist as part of their options may instead take a power scythe for the same listed cost."

 

If the chem master already comes with a power fist, is he eligible for a power scythe?

 

I missed the restriction on primus medicae weapons, thanks for that.

 

I'd like a proteus for the grave wardens, if I can find the points.
