oldhat Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Thinking about starting a new Loyalist Legion, since I don't have one. Love painting yellow, so ...here we are! I didn't think Stone Gauntlet seemed all that fun, so I started tinkering with PotL since Fists can buy Deep Strike. ++ Crusade Force Organisation Chart (LA - VII: Imperial Fists) [3,000Pts] ++ + Expanded Army Lists + Expanded Army List Profiles:: Exemplary Units On, Legacy Units On + Allegiance: + VII: Imperial Fists Allegiance: Loyalist + Rite of War: + Rite of War: Pride Of The Legion + HQ: [925Pts] + Centurion, Cataphractii [150Pts]: Librarian [45Pts], Psychic Discipline: Telepathy .

Legionary w/ Options [25Pts]: Augury Scanner [10Pts], Bolt Pistol ++ Total: [3,000Pts] ++ Pretty all in on the theme. Lots of 3++ and 4++ saves Deep Striking in. Contempors, Recon and HSS hold down the first turn and try to open up armor (Lascannons) or pin stuff (Recon). Huscarls go in against elite TEQ, Solar Marshal and his squad do the same. Cataphractii bully MEQ and take objectives. Libby joins where he's needed to pin before a charge. Obviously a little spammy, since it's leaning towards competitive. Thoughts?

On paper, it seems like it would be a dude with an Autocannon giving my HSS Line. Is that all they offer or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heir of Sigismund Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Definitely autocannon, his fire support rule doesn't improve the illiastus. Puts an invuln save in the HSS as well which is something they lack. Might not suit Pride of the Legion as much as it does every other IF list with multiple HSS tho I guess. Considered a Chaplain over Librarian? Hatred can really bridge the gap between WS4 fighting WS5, pushing those troops termis into being something scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatred can really bridge the gap between WS4 fighting WS5, pushing those troops termis into being something scary The goal is using the troop Catas to bully MEQ and point the Huscarls and Praetor at the TEQ/Elite infantry, where they'll do better work generally. With only two Recons and the Libby to pin reliably, I'd have to see if that is as vital during play. Though an excuse to paint up a Heresy era Chappy is always welcome.

Otto van Gerrig Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 All the stuff here is cool. I'm planning on doing Fists for HH eventually so I'll keep these ideas in mind too. oldhat 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
