Alpha Legion Deceptors

[Galron]

I have set off on another painting project. This one has amused me since it came out. This is post points change(10/16/2024)

2k points

Chaos Lord with soul link

Sorc in termy armor

Dark Commune(using a cadian command squad to reflect them being elite operatives commanding rabble)

 

20 cultists

10 cultist

10 cultsts

5 legionaries lascannon and bolters(hangs out in the back field)

10 legionaries equipped for melee + lascannon

10 legionaries equipped for melee + lascannon

 

10 chosen

5 possessed

5 terminators

5 warp talons

5 Raptors

predator annihilator

pred destructor (I already have it built)

Rhino

 

Most stuff I own or can do with HH models I have in my pile-O-shame. I prefer the idea of Alpha Legion not being all spikey and chaosy so I am using mostly Heresy models. Possessed I dont really have a choice but I do have a box of them unbuilt. The chosen are going to be just blinged up command squad types. The chaos lord runs with the chosen. Sorce runs with the terms. 

 

Basic tactic is to flood the center with the cultists with a second rank of legionaries to rush in and fill the holes when the cultists inevitably die. The second wave is the Chosen, possesed and terminators. I have the second 10 man legionary squad due to the weird points in the new points otherwise I would split one to two 5 mans. Main goal is to just swarm primaries and secondaries.

Looks like a fun list. I too am happy that our large Legionaries Squads got a wee cheaper.

 

You could always proxy  your Possessed with something else on 40 mm bases if you want to avoid gribbliness.

If I didnt already have the box in my pile I would, but its there so I might as well use it. I kind of picture it as the marines having a cargo container they open up and just release these nutso guys. We are still the bad guys after all
