Assault fists

[Hugoboss8901]

So I'm looking at doing an assault themed fists force. I can paint yellow but I love the black and yellow scheme more.

Now what units are assault themed ? I'm looking at tacticals with cc weapons, assault marines, bikes but what other units can be used for an assault in an army list. I want to do something completely different to the normal stone gauntlet fists you see alot of.

For a fists army I think breachers in assault drills would be cool as heck

You could use Drop Pods, Stormeagles, Speeders.

Jetbikes with BF 5 Heavy Bolters are nice.

Destroyers in an Assault Drill would fit too.

During the Heresy unit roles were designated at a higher level than the squad. There’s a Meltagun Legionary in a Tactical grouping, and a Breacher in an assault grouping. Any unit you take will be a part of ‘assault’ or ‘tactical’ echelons/companies/cadres etc.

So I've come up with a basic siege lit untilising my favorite units

It's only about 2.5k at the moment and will be painted in the black scheme ( running potl )

Hq

Damocles

Warmonger in cata armor, guantlet

Praetor art armor, iron halo, paragon blade on bike.

Elites

1x apothecaries on bikes

2x contemptors with fists and kheres

Troops

3x 5 man cata terminators 1x assault cannon , 2x chainfists, 3x fists ( 2 squads with teleportations )

2x hussar bikes sarge with melta bombs

Fast attack

2x out riders 2x axes, sarge upgrade with fist melta bombs

Primaris lightening fighter 2x krakens ground tracking auguries

I might play with it abit more tho but I love bikes and I think this would be thematic as hell with the bikes and dreads pushing forward then deep striking termies
