HEY, <@&877303803618164796> so I’m trying to cut off 509 pts from this list, I want the general vibe to be a heavily armoured Mob as that’s what I feel the SoH thematically feel like

This list is kinda everything I want in a SoH list but obviously theirs too much stuff, I already cut a 2nd chieftain squad and land raider so I’m kinda ina feels bad situation where idk what to cut

Any thoughts about the list would be great, and if anyone has any advice on units that could be dropped, changed or replaced without losing the armies vibe that’d be great Thankyou

Storm eagles are cool but aren't all that useful
You can replace them with Xiphon Interceptors and still get the Lascannons for 105pts
Also, if you're using Black Reaving you really should be using Reaver Squads

#

And you need a Praetor to use a Rite of War anyway

#

oh nvm, you have Horus

rancid moon Storm eagles are cool but aren't all that useful You can replace them with Xipho...

Aren’t that useful ?

How else am I transporting 20 man Despoiler squads

#

Also probably won’t use reavers as they are soo overpriced

Chieftains hurt but the aesthetic is very cool

#

if your not using reavers its probably better to use the long march

#

Idk reavers become line troops in black reaving (if your using them at all)

pliant carbon Sep 22, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

your not using reavers so the black reaving is just a MoS tax

native thicket Sep 22, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

No ? it’s rage 2 when charging multiple squads, and the MoS is a strong ass unit

#

Meanwhile long March is literally pointless

pliant carbon Sep 23, 2022, 2:10 AM

#

i forgot about rage but long march is not pointless

#

plus 1 to movement and charge rolls is pretty good

#

If the move 8” buff gave those units the charge boost too it’d be way better, but I’m inclined to agree sticking to Black Reaving even without Reavers

#

Though I’d still probably bring some
