Post-CA Swordbearers @ 2K

[librisrouge]

So, CA sucked. I know, I know, what a hot take. Our best stuff got nerfed and our worst stuff was ignored. Time to reassess the list.

 

HQ-

Librarian - Warlord (Psychic Epitome), Storm Bolter, Staff, Purifying Flame, Vortex of Doom, and Sigil of Exigence

Grandmaster in Nemesis Dreadknight - Big 'ol Hammer, Heavy Psycannon, Heavy Psilencer, Servant of the Throne, Augurium Scrolls, and First to the Fray

 

Troops-

Strike Squad x5 - Psycannon, Halberd x3, and Sword x1

Strike Squad x5 - Psycannon, Halberd x3, and Sword x1

Strike Squad x5 - Psycannon, Halberd x3, and Sword x1

 

Elite-

Dreadnought - Multimelta

Dreadnought - Multimelta

 

Fast Attack-

Interceptors x10 - Staff, Sword x3, and Halberd x6

Interceptors x10 - Hammer, Staff, Sword x3, and Halberd x5

 

Heavy Support-

Nemesis Dreadknight - Big 'ol Sword, Heavy Psycannon, and Heavy Psilencer

Nemesis Dreadknight - Big 'ol Sword, Heavy Psycannon, and Heavy Psilencer

Nemesis Dreadknight - Big 'ol Sword, Heavy Psycannon, and Heavy Psilencer

 

Not a huge change from what I've been running. I dropped some upgrades, and a strike squad, but added another dreadnought. I've been happy with my dreadnought and have been wondering if one more might be a good idea. I also keep the 20 interceptors. More than anything else in the list, save maybe the GMNDK, the interceptors define how GKs play for me. Lowering their numbers won't work. I'd sooner drop the dreads and take 10 more, points be damned. The basic strike marine is only held back by speed and giving them that is a wonder.

 

No teleporters in the list, so I bet the list is not as mobile but I rather found I wasn't using those stratagems as much as others, so no big loss.
