I'd exchange the Cataphractii for Grave Wardens have Typhon join those instead. Split the Deathshrouds up into 2 groups. With Typhon in the unit they lose all the benefits of being in Tartaros armour.

#

Having a unit with line that won’t die is probably worth it but I’d swap cats for wardens every day

pliant shadow
#

3 Line units should be enough for 2k points

A Cataphractii Command Squad

#

That way you also keep that 4th Line unit

eager geode
#

What weapons tho?

pliant shadow
#

Thunder Hammers

#

Wham

eager geode
#

Would power fists work?

pliant shadow
#

Technically, sure

#

Just that hammers are better

eager geode
#

I just don’t want to spend any more money on resin

pliant shadow
#

Understandable

eager geode
#

Anyway thanks for the help

pliant shadow
#

Just for reference, the hammer is +5ppm and gives the user Brutal (2) compared to the Fist

#

Which is awesome

# eager geode They’re not built yet, but I’m gonna try!

Oh even better!. I used 2mm by 1mm magnets for mine but be careful on the torsos there's a fine line between seating the magnet properly and a hole to the hollow center (if you do this just put two or three together and put them in)

The reason I ask is because personally I like a power weapon on the alchem flamer helps to not put too much into one line soldier. But also if you ever run reaping swap most fists to mauls and pick up rad grenades. You'll instant death anything t4 or below on the charge at initiative

I found this video https://youtu.be/xlGaVforFKc

No, I don't regret creating 3:37-4:00. Not even slightly. I perhaps should.

This video was requested and I was more than happy to oblige!

I tried to practice keeping the snips a touch more in frame this time :,]
(Have you noticed my thumbnail game is improving a bit?)

As always, thank you for taking the time to watch my content!

I think it works pretty well for me but I don’t have enough shoulder pads

silver turtle
eager geode
#

Yes, but my problem is there aren’t enough shoulder pads in the kit for all of the weapons

silver turtle
eager geode
#

I’m looking at the sprue and there’s only enough for one set of arms

Ah, I see why there was confusion

# eager geode 👍

But yeah biggest thing I'd problem change is swap to a power weapon on the flamer and upgrade one or two to chairlifts. Your biggest challenge will be anything with a flare shield. Everything else should go down relatively easy

Chairlifts best antitank in the game imo

eager geode
#

But I found some cheap shoulder pads on Etsy

#

Here’s the improved list

#

The options on the tac marines and siege breaker may seem a bit weird, but it’s only because I’m trying to keep it WSYWG

#

I magnetised my cata termies and what I did was gluing the shoulder pads to the torsos, not to the arms

eager geode
#

Smart

I’m still building and painting

#

I’ve heard it works well with the apothecary

#

The benefits of apothecaries or squad sizes?

steady falcon
#

A 20 man tactical with an apothecary is always going to be decent just spread them out a bit for blast. It’s a tough line unit to deal with on an objective obviously s8+ and insta kills it and no fnp but it’s not an ideal candidate to be shot at with that type of weapon. Most people would rather keep those shots for something else.

eager geode
#

I see

#

15 man feels easier to jostle into positions on the board but 20 is nice too for the sheer threat of bolter shots
