Cruor Vault Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Last week I built a new Sniper/Chainsword Veteran squad as a place for my MoS to hang out when I am not running a HSS (Logos requires a MoS). With the leaks this week it turns out the Optae + Company command is basically the exact squad I was planning on building, but for ~20pts they gain some great buffs over the regular veterans. The Optae allows his unit to automatically rally, and to ignore the restrictions on shooting/charging when doing so. The Company Standard makes the squad line, and also has a 6" aura of LD 9. I've gathered enough information to have a pretty good idea of what the cost would be to run the new units. I'm 90% sure these numbers are correct. Delegatus Rides with the Suzerain in the Raider, The MoS hangs out with the Optae and his Company Command. The Company Command is mostly there for the 6 relentless Nemesis Bolters, but they also have some excellent melee output with 30 Chainsword attacks on the charge at WS5 (or WS6 during Retribution Strike turns). I had a couple of spare points so I threw a Shotgun on to the MoS for occasional overwatch/return fire fun and the slim chance of Concussive going off. I have 10pts left to spend, and I cant decide what to do with them. I was debating a Charnable weapon on the Optae or MoS. I could also drop the searchlights from the Land Raider to get an Argyrium Boarding Shield on the Optae.

How many attacks do the company command get? That reads like 3 base - Suzerain level crazy!

The Optae only has 2 Attacks instead of the three I was thinking. Each guy in the command squad has 2 base +1 for 2 weapons +1 for charging x5 =20 + MoS 5 + Optae 4 = 29.
