Finally starting a Flesh tearers army and would love some advice

[SmiteThemAll]

Hi everyone!

 

I've been dreaming of a Flesh tearer army for years and I'm finally getting it done. 2025 is the year of Flesh tearing!!

I've got a colour scheme I'm happy with and I'm ready to start painting.

 

So far I've got these units assembled and primed.

 

5 assault intercessors x2

5 Death company with Jump packs

5 Infernus marines  (I mostly bought these to test the colour scheme)

 

List wise I've come up with this so far but I'd love some input.

I'd love to keep the army to mostly jump units and infantry but the odd vehicle would be fine too.

Any suggestions on how to get to 1000 Points? I've got 375 left to get some shooting/scoring.

A squad of Scouts wouldn't hurt 

 

Which Detachment are you considering running?

[SmiteThemAll]

Hey Jolemai, thanks for the reply!

 

Is the only way to buy scouts the killteam box?

 

I will definitely be running LAG

You could also consider some Assault Intercessors (foot ones), Infiltrators, and a Lieutenant with combi weapon.

 

All would do some of the objectives workload and are also useful as you expand the army.

The assault intercessors are already in my collection as listed. 2x5.

 

I'll defo get the infiltrators but not sure on the LT. 

 

What would you recommend for fire support? I like the eradicator models.

For the odd vehicle or two id recommend a Brutalis and a thunderstrike to help you deal with armor.

in most games I play it’s the only dedicated AT I have, so unless there’s just a massive number of high T and high W vehicles/monster on the table, it’s normally enough.

last game it almost single handedly killed a deamon prince and 2 predators.

Sorry, for some reason I read those two squads of Assault Intercessors as having jump packs...

 

The Ballistus Dreadnought is considered good value at the moment for ranged support. Eradicators have their fans and cam be quite devastating, but their main drawback is their range. This is mitigated by having a delivery system, or using the Aggressive Onslaught stratagem (trouble is, you can't use it on anything else that turn should you do so...)
