brimmstorm Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Hello! I have started a decent sized Custodes army. I see lots of list with Guard allies but I've never been a fan of them. So I was wondering if anyone has had some luck allying them with AdMech or a small contingent of Space Marines? If so what do you use? This is what I have for Custodes so far.... Trajan 3 Bikes(I plan on getting 6 more but I don't want to play Biker spam) 18 Guardians 2 Vexilla Telemon Achilles Thanks for your help!

rcoon Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Dunecrawler Onagers are always fun allies, particularly to fill the ranged support role that Custodes sorely lack even with the telemon. With the right setup they can be quite difficult to kill too.

What would the right set up be? :) I'm just coming back to 40k after having not played since 3rd edition, when AdMech was not even an army yet.

The Stygies VIII protocol that gives -1 to ranged fire from beyond 12" is extremely useful.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I currently run my Custodes with Blood Angels and Deathwatch... I do think Admech is a solid choice... especially for those Onagers.

Silverson Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 as far as i'm aware the loyal 17 is three squads of 5 rangers and two engineseers and not to many points more than the loyal 32 from guard.
