Looking for some advice on my first Alpha Legion List. It has a heavy focus on Infiltration and attempts to utilise Legion specific units. Any and all advice is welcome! :)

thanks to the panoptica faq the overcosted powerfists on the lernaeans is finally a decent option, that allows them to put up a fight vs other terminators, without being even more expensive. So might be an option to take 2-5 powerfists per squad and maybe one chainfist for AT, to get this points you could downgrade your seekers to recons, then you have 5 line units and should be able to outscore most lists

Point of Order: the Suzies need to be taken as an Elites choice, not a slotless Retinue. But there's still a free Elites slot so whatever.

So what's the plan if the other side screen their armor and blows away the Headhunters before they can turn a couple tanks to slag? The one dread will do work but I don't know if it's enough.

Ty for the point on the Suzies! Can they still be taken as a Retinue for Dynat if they're put into an Elite slot?

Not too sure on a plan to deal with armour as I'm yet to play my first game 😅 Seems like it might be worth either taking some further redundancy or a way to deal with screen units. Do you have any suggestions?

So Retinue has an actual mechanical process behind it. Dynat can "join" whatever unit he fuckin wants, even before the game, so he can hang with the Suzies just fine but they'll eat up two Infiltrate slots instead of one (at the time that Dynat gives out the bonuses, they're still two different units).

That's really good to know! And does this apply to any potential Retinue Choice? (Including Command Squads)

#

Retinues (like command squads and their character) are a single unit the entire time, so Dynat + Command squad would only take up one Infiltrate slot to buff them.
