Jolemai Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Do you have a link for when it went 5-1? Only you've set this up for Nachmund and any recent tournaments would likely be Nephilim - that's not as pedantic as it reads because it matters for the secondary missions as they vary quite a lot between the Warzones. Same with CP. This goes on to affect how the list is built. Centurions in Nachmund became meta as they would hold the centre (which we don't tend do attempt in Nephilim) and they would have some other deterrent with them (like Company Champion, second Priest, etc). This they don't have. So how will you be using them? The Company Veterans are simply there for Actions. Which do you have in mind for them? Most other things are straightforward in their application and their loadouts seem to be what you'd expect. Interesting split on Rites of War and Visage of Death, most people use these on a single model. If you're sticking with Nachmund, consider putting these both onto the Captain, finding the points to upgrade the Priest to a Chief Apothecary, take the Selfless Healer Warlord Trait, then use Angels Exemplar to give Soulwarden to either of them (if it's suitable for your meta). Is this for friendly games or for competitive ones? If I may, is your group ok with you rocking up with a tournament list to a beer and pretzel game?

INKS Posted October 4, 2022 Author Share Posted October 4, 2022 This list is for competitive play. I don't have a beer and pretzels group. sadly. Nachmund is a mistake on my end. I can fix that. The idea is to push right up the center with the captain and maybe the priest. Company vets and actions - I guess this depends on the secondaries I end up choosing. I'll need to think about that more. But in that video they talk about how they are the better choice. so I guess we'll see. He uses SS because that is what he has, I won't be doing that. The 8 man DC is there for blocking as well. I am not 100% happy with this unit. I might be able to change this or drop some for other things. Unsure.

Kind of want an ATV but I've never heard a good thing about them. lol I would probably take a Landspeeder Tornado with MM and Assault Cannon instead. It has better firepower than the Invader and has FLY which is definitely handy. It has 6W at T6 vs the Invader's 8W at T5 so about equal in durability terms.

INKS Posted October 4, 2022 Author Share Posted October 4, 2022 ok yeah, this is a good idea. I'll look into a Tornado. Other than the storm you don't see too many speeders but the movement should be pretty good I think Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376110-inks-ba-list-2k-pts/#findComment-5872021 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majkhel Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Alternatively, you can always flesh-out the Assault Intercessors or sprinkle SG with occasional Inferno Pistols I guess. Meltaguns on the Assault squad is an option too (is Inferno Pistol on the Sarge free btw?) But Tornado is good call. Definitely worth to have couple of axes on the SG.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Chris, the guy whose army you are basing this off if, is a very strong BA player in the south east portion of the US, i think he's from Georgia. He's based his list off of other successful BA lists from GTs. If you're building your list after this one, there's no harm in it, just know that he plays a pretty cagey game and has a reason for bringing what he does and which secondaries he picks. I think ATVs are great, but you need more than 1 to really benefit from it. They are a steal for 85 points.

INKS Posted October 15, 2022 Author Share Posted October 15, 2022 Would love to talk to him about the list then to understand it better or if he's done a video on it and his play style. He should! :) Right now I am just building towards 500 pt Ark - boarding party lists but I'll get here eventually.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) I would be hesitant on 1. How long does it take you to build tournament lists? 2. With all the 10th edition rumors I personally wouldnt invest in any type of meta chasing army. If you are specifically shooting for the LVO I would recommend just playing another tournament power game list. Because 3 months may not be enough time to have your army painted and properly play tested by then.

INKS Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 More of a long term thing. I like the play style from what I've read about it and how it's used. I just happen to love Centurions. I think it might also work in a 500 pt list. Most of the list is fairly standard as well. So worse case I'll have to add on to the standard list and Centurions were a waste. But I am hell bent to make them work. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376110-inks-ba-list-2k-pts/#findComment-5876000 Share on other sites More sharing options...

INKS Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 I now have about 6 lists. Centurions work, I've seen it. Perfect for someone like me who loves those niche builds that are just odd. My latest uses 4 attack bikes. Wish ATVs were better, they look cooler.

Dont-Be-Haten Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 What makes you think ATVs aren't better? The 25 point difference gives you an 8 wound assault 6 bolter and 4 attacks versus versus a 4 wound rapid 2 bolter with 2 attacks that has the core special rule. A fair trade off. Unless you run Dante; custom chapter tactics (which many agree are better than red thirst) like Master Artisans it nets the same results as needing a captain to re-roll your MM shot. I know that's @Karhedron reason for attack bikes over ATVs. I would contest both are solid options. I really like ATVs.

INKS Posted October 18, 2022 Author Share Posted October 18, 2022 I want to love ATVs. But I get more attack bikes and therefore more shots with melta guns. I guess that is my reason for ATK BIKES over ATVs. I do run Dante. In my situation I have 240 points to fill. so it comes down to - how many ATVs vs how many ATK Bikes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376110-inks-ba-list-2k-pts/#findComment-5876729 Share on other sites More sharing options...

INKS Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 I will do better formatting than the program gives me. sorry about that. Mephy is interesting in that if I face off against Psychic enemies then I am happy to have an extra way to deny them but sometimes he feels unnecessary. If your enemy has Psychic then you never get to cast much of anything. deny deny deny. If they don't then he's not as impactful in play. So he's ok. He earns his point in mortal wounds and kills via non psychic enemies. He earns his points sometimes vs psychic enemies or deny enemies in which he can stop some powers. NOTE: I use him aggressively. I don't just let him sit in the backfield and do his thing. I have him up in combat range and with my troops.

INKS Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 For myself, I have three lists and I am not sure which I want to build first or towards. It used to be 6 lists, so 3 is pretty good for me. Only one of those lists has Mephy in it. Dante for CP reasons really and he's not too bad either. Sang Priest is an auto for me.
