HeinzD Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) The recent FAQ changed some characters and the Buffs to Marshal Durak Rask inspired me to redo one of my favorite lists, Death Guard + Dark Angels. Thought i share what i came up with, since your feedback and ideas on here are always great, especially for my Death guard! Durak Rask now counts as a Siegebreaker and is a Master of the Legion, which allows us to play Creeping Death with just one character, instead of taking a Siegebreaker and a Praetor/Typhon. The List is a DG list at heart, so yes, i could play stuff like Cenobium or something, but thats not really the spirit of the list, so i tried to keep the DA part of the list as small as possible, they are mostly just there for the rite of war. For the Dark Angels decided on a Delegatus over a Praetor for the utility of "Rally the Legion" and took a retinue over Deathwing companions to have another line unit, their job will be to bully weaker power armor units like despoilers or assault marines off from objectives, will definitly try it the other way around though, for a unit with a bit more punch. The Interemptors will go in aggressively to put on pressure and will try to hurt some expensive elite units, if possible, but are not really expected to succeed, they are mostly there to be scary and take some attention, so no upgrades like phosphex boms or something. the Sicaran Omega is here to shoot at dreadnoughts in dangerous terrain to make use of the Eskaton RoW, but is flexible enough to shoot at anything really. For the Death Guard, Durak Rask will drive around with his Retinue and target other Deathstars, trying to use their combi melters + Rask's "Protocols of Destruction" to take out a big transport like a spartan/proteus. The rapiers and contemptor try to annoy anything that wants to get into meele and the Leviathan and multimelters are there for anti-tank, but are fine to shoot at anything, really. the apothecary will join the 20 man Tactical squad, obviously, and try to hold a midfield objective or something as long as possible, the other two tac squads are for backfield objective, even though the inductii can be a bit more agressive with their flamers and weird fnp. the scorpions are there to shoot at hss or anything that tries to sit back and shoot from a distance. That would be it, looking forward to what you have to say! ++ 1.

Xenith Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Horrible, and I wouldn't want to play it more than once, but looks fun! Consider getting a pair of grv rapier in there too - the eskaton rule gives you +1 to wound anything in dangerous terrain, by any means, so the large grav templates are a great way to get +1 to wound against big chunks of the opposing army. The 7" grav arquitor is better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 7" grav arquitor is better! Very true, its a very annoying list, i try not to play it too often, but i cant deny my love for dangerous terrain. More grav is a fun idea, thought about a few proteus land speeders, but havent thought about the arquitor at all, that could be a fun one! Cant make to much use of the +1 to wound though, since thats only for the Dark Angels. Thank you very much for the feedback!

Xenith Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Yea, was just a thought to be able to slap +1 to wound on whatever the interemptors want to torch from 36" away - I'm not 100% familiar with DA, but I assume you could hit dreads with it also so hammers wound on 2+ and cenobites (S7?) wound on a 3+?
