First list is very much a mobile foot army, with no teleport homer, but it has bikes and deepstriking venatari for some fast mobilization and harassment.

The second and the third list are very similar, with the only difference been one list has too heavy tanks, the other list has two heavy Dreadnoughts

I’m rotating between all three lists, and honestly, I love all three with the first two being my top favorites. In the first list, the only thing that always hangs me up, because they either do really well, or fail spectacularly, are the bikes. I mean, they are three wounds with a 3+ armor safe, and a 6+ invulnerable safe. That squad puts out 20 strength 6 shots with shred and when charging put out 20 to 30 strength 10 attacks at initiative eight

What you guys think?

#

Other suggestion would be in the first list to drop a spear squad and replace with a sword and board squad to stick my tribune in - that way I spread the Meridian blade love around

what is the list for

#

like

#

what kind of event

#

are we talking tournament style event, narrativ event, etc

#

Although I think I would rather run 2 over 1 or 3

#

Ah sorry. Normal event - 3k age of darkness with a limit of 0-3 contemtpors and 0–3 heavy support teams - and no named characters

#

Narrative event style but people bring some nasty lists

#

👍👍👍

#

Overall @still briar it’s a normal event 👍

first or second lists are probably your best bets

#

That’s what I was thinking. The only issue I have with the second list is one game I tested it - my reinforcements didn’t come till turn 4 and I lost by like one point

#

But the first one I guess the problem was the hetaeron got shot up - but the rest of the line hit so it didn’t really matter 🤣

I like the second list if the teleport works out. I'm assuming you teleport in the Tribune, 2 units of Hetaeron and Aquilon. That has to be a nightmare when it does land.
