grimsanity Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Making a 2000 point hammer of the emperor list. I have 160 points left any idea what I can add and any tweaks? https://pastebin.com/GcWt1Gyu Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385666-hammer-of-the-emperor-list-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sairence Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Hellhound for ignore cover wouldn't be bad. You have a lot of AP1 and 2 as your damage dealers and your Exterminators on their own might struggle a bit to boost that. I wouldn't even hate dropping the second Exterminator for that Hellhound. Alternatively, some ratlings to infiltrate would be decent. You need to make sure you have apace to move the tanks into. And 5 rough riders as action monkeys or rapid ingress counter charges makes for a nice support package that fits exactly into your 160p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385666-hammer-of-the-emperor-list-help/#findComment-6104374 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My plain is to use the tauroxs to scout move the engineers and HWT and kasrkins and make them early harassing units in the midboard. Should I not use exterminators at all and replace with another variant?

sairence Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Oh no, you absolutely need some Exterminator action. Battlecannons don't really work without some kind if AP boosy and Dorns struggle as well. In Combined Arms you might get away with it thanks to Fields of Fire, but not in Hammer. One note: in order for a transport to scout, all embarked models have to have the scout rule. So if you load up the Krieg HWT with the Engineers, that Taurox is not scout moving, cause the HWT models don't have the rule.

I can't access his list for some reason but if he's using Catachan HWT they do have Scout.

I was using krieg HWT but might need to switch now. It’s been awhile and wasn’t aware of the scout thing.

Yes, it's a shame you can't scout yhd Krieg HWT, early moving heavy Flamers would be nasty Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385666-hammer-of-the-emperor-list-help/#findComment-6104628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
