Enurta Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Recently bought 2 Betrayal at Calth boxes to start my progress into 30k.

Rangaman Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Slightly different to other CotH lists I've seen, a pair of Dreadnoughts is a nice change and the Grav Rapiers aren't so common anymore. One thing, the Saboteur has a Combi-weapon, a pair of Lightning Claws and a Power Dagger? I think he loses the option to take the Combi-weapon if he swaps his original gear for the paired claws. Other than that, I would probably suggest dropping the AC and Aux Drive on the Sicaran, it just bumps his cost up and he still has the potential of being one shotted by a Lascannon or something nasty like Vulturax. I would use those points for Multimelta on the three Rhinos for some extra threat.

Unknown Legionnaire Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Fists things first, funnily enought CotH is the one of the things that actually make Alpha Legion more ... unflexible. Spooky. Apart from that and onto your list: ~ Where's Dynat going ? There's no unit he's attached to it seems. ~ His WL trait seems wasted in this list (Don't tell me he's DS'ing himself on his own). ~ The Saboteur is totally over-equipped. Keep him cheap is the rule here. ~ You're really light on anti-tank for a 2.500 pts. list. ~ Tac squads look fine. Though 3 scoring units isn't much in 2.500 pts.

The laughing raven Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I've found swapping a tac squad for an assault squad can be useful, makes a great way to move alphie accross the board if he uses one of many :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333048-2500-alpha-legion-coth-list/#findComment-4713611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enurta Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 How does this look then? I reduced some points and added a support squad. Dynat would either go with Plasma Squad or Rapiers. Am I correct in assuming if I am fielding Alpharius than Dynat does not get to confer Deep Strike nor get the ability to take a Power Dagger? Reduced Saboteur to just Combi Swapped Rapier Batteries to Laser Destroyer Changed Rewards of Treason to Gal Vorbak Squad for reduced points Added 6man support squad of plasma Gave Rhinos Multi Melta Reduced points on Sicaran ++ The Age of Darkness (Legiones Astartes: Age of Darkness Army List) [2495pts] ++ + HQ + Armillus Dynat [200pts] Legion Centurion [95pts]: Combi-Weapon, Power Armour ·· Consul: Saboteur + Elites + Contemptor-Mortis Dreadnought [180pts]: Kheres Pattern Assault Cannons x 2 Contemptor-Mortis Dreadnought [180pts]: Kheres Pattern Assault Cannons x 2 Legion Rapier Weapons Battery [110pts] ·· Legion Rapier Weapons Battery: Laser Destroyer Array ·· Legion Rapier Weapons Battery: Laser Destroyer Array The Rewards of Treason [230pts] ·· Gal Vorbak Dark Brethren: 4x Dark Brethren ···· Dark Martyr: Artificer Armour, Power Dagger, Power Fist + Troops + Legion Tactical Squad [205pts]: 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines ·· Additional Wargear: Bolters ·· Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier: MultiMelta ·· Legion Tactical Sergeant: Artificer Armour, Power Dagger, Power Fist Legion Tactical Squad [205pts]: 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines ·· Additional Wargear: Bolters ·· Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier: MultiMelta ·· Legion Tactical Sergeant: Artificer Armour, Power Dagger, Power Fist Legion Tactical Squad [205pts]: 9x Legion Tactical Space Marines ·· Additional Wargear: Bolters ·· Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier: MultiMelta ·· Legion Tactical Sergeant: Artificer Armour, Power Dagger, Power Fist Legion Tactical Support Squad [260pts]: 5x Legion Space Marines ·· Entire Squad may exchange their Flamers for:: Plasma gun ·· Legion Rhino Armoured Carrier: MultiMelta ·· Legion Sergeant: Bolt Pistol, Melta Bombs + Heavy Support + Legion Sicaran Battle Tank [210pts]: Accelerator Autocannon, Dozer Blade, Lascannon Sponsons, Pintle-mounted Heavy Bolter + Legion + Legiones Astartes: XX: Alpha Legion, Traitor Rite of War: The Coils of the Hydra + Lords of War + Alpharius [415pts] ++ Total: [2495pts] ++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333048-2500-alpha-legion-coth-list/#findComment-4713829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The laughing raven Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Any way of swapping bits around to get 2ccw for your tacs, I have found these can really swing things when a list is so tactical squad heavy? when using counter attack rolling 30 dice can really put a crimp in a opponents smile.
