mertbl Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Tournament coming up soon, so far 8 deathguard plus a couple chaos registered. I already have 2 relics(aquilla and dagger) is it worth it to include the relic? I'll still have 18 or so command points left at that point.

Chris521 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 With that many command points, I would probably take it. Also, it's only 2 addition command points. The stratagem is 1cp for 1 extra relic or 3 cp for 2 extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral_80 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Drop the Aquila. It's useless with already 18 CP, and not that good anyway unless you face somebody with as many CPs. On the other hand, the Relic of Lost Cadia is *huge* against Chaos. Also, obviously you'll have the warlord trait to regain CPs anyway, unless you go for the occasional Old Grudges. But probably you won't need it anyway, with the Relic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 With plenty of CPs I think you could easily afford it. How many points are the games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallenSoldiers Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Depends. The stratagem “vengeance for cadia” will Net you the same benefits, but only per phase and costs 1CP. The difference being you don’t need to be Cadian to use it. What regiment are you running? Will the relic just stay bubbled up with Artillery or a Gunline?

mertbl Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 2200 points. I play a gun line/artillery army with 6 bullgryn, outflanking vets, 3*5 scion squads. Most likely relic would get a manticore 1 of 2 basilisk and a pair of las/plas infantry squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokugawa Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I wonder why no one ask "Is the dagger worth the CP?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 If you’re playing cadian against chaos in my opinion it’s generally the first relic I choose. It’s insanely powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShredder Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 In my view, with many IG lists being able to get to ~20CP easily, I think we might as well take 3 relics all the time for the sheer hell of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tirak Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I wonder why no one ask "Is the dagger worth the CP?". Because if you're bringing the Dagger you've got a plan to use it as your army composition has its usage built in. The Relic is more situational and aside from being Cadian there is no list tailoring required for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mertbl Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 I use the dagger with a PC and a unit of plasma vets (3 plasma guns and a plasma pistol). They can usually fry something and become a thorn. Plus linebreaker, recon whatever I need. Very versitle units I wonder why no one ask "Is the dagger worth the CP?".Because if you're bringing the Dagger you've got a plan to use it as your army composition has its usage built in.
