How many points is this?

#

@brazen plume 1500

brazen plume Jul 29, 2023, 1:06 PM

#

ah

#

seems ok

#

your vets can't charge out of a rhino

#

so i would probably give them combi guns instead of power swords

#

probably increase the size of the squad to 10 as well

#

you can shave points off the tacticals for that

#

Legion Vexilla is not going to do much to help them in melee

#

neither is a melta bomb

merry hedge Jul 29, 2023, 4:09 PM

#

@brazen plume The Vets are 5, I was just thinking they could get to Melee and do something. Melta-Bombs i thought might crack something metallic open.

brazen plume Jul 29, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

I am aware that the vets are only 5, i am saying they would be better as a 10 man squad

#

& if you want them to do melee, a rhino isnt a great choice of transport

merry hedge Jul 29, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

Currently I am facing mostly Thousand Sons.

brazen plume Jul 29, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

Ok?

merry hedge Jul 29, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

I was just wondering what combi-weapons to give them. Unless I am thinking it wrong EC are a close combat Legion however hence why the power swords.

brazen plume Jul 29, 2023, 4:14 PM

#

Also the tacticals will probably not be near enough to most takes to use the bomb, & even if they are can always use krak grenades

Plasma probably, i doubt most people would let you get within combi melta range with the rhino still intact

merry hedge Jul 29, 2023, 4:16 PM

#

I suppose Combi Plasma give them chance against some terminators also for the one turn they can use that plasma.

Yez

#

Gods know that I see Sekhmet alot more than I should.

polar saddle Jul 30, 2023, 11:30 AM

#

ok so

#

heres how you beat tsons

#

you take one librarian with a psychic hood

#

thats it youve won, they kill themselves after that

#

now then, a couple things. +1 to what Potoo said, however

#

whats youre gameplan for this list? 6 melta sky hunters is a good core to a shooting list, but why no subsonic pulser on them? Then after that how do you face a single contemptor? a leviathan? a command squad in a land raider?

#

I know 1500 can be a tossup in terms of just not having the points for a decent list core then some toys but I fear 3x10 tacticals isnt going to win you games

#

and im sorry but the vets just dont do enough here, id love to see you replace them with palatines of any form in any transport just for some 2+ armor stuff

merry hedge Jul 30, 2023, 8:01 PM

#

@polar saddle I haven’t even thought about contemptor or Leviathans. I was thinking to Outflank with the Skyhunters in Maru Skara. Palatines, the FW price for the squad scared me. I hadn’t realized Palatines were in artificer armor.

The tacticals were there to take objectives mainly.

I thought the Outflanking Skyhunters might come in so close they won’t need the Pulsers.

brazen plume Jul 30, 2023, 8:21 PM

#

You can kitbash the Palatines fairly easily

#

~~or go through a recaster~~

merry hedge Jul 30, 2023, 8:34 PM

#

Where would we get something similar to the Charnabal weapons?

brazen plume Jul 31, 2023, 1:55 AM

#

I can use basically any weapons you want to represent them

#

But i kitbashed mine from Myrmidesh Painbringers

merry hedge Jul 31, 2023, 5:57 AM

#

I thought Charbabal weapons are supposed to look a specific way. Would Mark III Marines work for Palatine Blades?

polar saddle Jul 31, 2023, 10:31 AM

#

probably not...

#

theres a lot of "its up to your imagination" in this game, but straight up mk3 marines probably wont cut it

#

tho if youre looking for palatines for cheap that wont make your opponent rage at you, I can recommend straight up Myrmidesh Painbringers
