Exilyth Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Noticing how the cult scout/armoured sentinel datasheet in Codex:GSC is a different datasheet from the scout/armoured sentinel datasheet in Codex:Astra Militarum, the following list came to my mind ... okay, to be honest, I though about running a bunch of sentinels with missile launchers and hunter killer missiles (HKMs), but after fiddling around and noticing what I could take instead of the HKMs, I arrived at the following list: Genestealer cult (outrider detachment) HQ Jackal Alphus 70 Fast Attack 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 Heavy Support 3x Brood Brother Heavy Weapons Team, mortar 33 3x Brood Brother Heavy Weapons Team, mortar 33 Astra Militarum (outrider detachment) HQ Primaris Psyker, force stave 46 Fast Attack 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 Heavy Support Basilisk, heavy bolter 108 Basilisk, heavy bolter 108 total: 1748 pts 36 sentinels, 2 vehicles, 2 hwts, 2 characters tactic: swarm the board with walkers while the psyker helps the basilisks and mortars. Meanwhile, the alphus snipes characters. Obviously, this 8th edition list is inspired by 7th edition "emperors talon recon company" formation. Given the size of sentinels, it's probably a pain to transport. I don't have enough sentinel models to field even a fourth of the list. Well, tbh, I probably won't be able to ever field this list. Like dreadnought only lists, there's too much wounds concentrated on only a few models. So, I wouldn't recommend anyone to actually build this.

Closet Skeleton Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Cult sentinels are Brood Brothers so the Jackal Alphus doesn't buff them. You'd be better with a Magus.

Exilyth Posted March 15, 2019 Author Share Posted March 15, 2019 How would I fit a magus with only 2 points left? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/354524-1750pts-just4fun-36-sentinels-and-some-chaff/#findComment-5276752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
