Now that I finally have my 3d printer, I've made a new list. Feel free to suggest any units or modifications in existence, as I've yet to start printing.

#

main concerns for me are:

  • Is the list well-rounded?
  • Is the list effective?
  • Will my opponent beat me to death with a hammer?
wooden obsidian
#

This is a decently strong but fluffy list

bronze rose
#

the volkite will let me kill heavy support squads

bronze rose
#

no deep strike will survive

wooden obsidian
wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

I see, maybe I'll drop the recon apothecary and give them neutron + melta then

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

what makes them so much better?

wooden obsidian
#

but either way your opponent won't be playing with many characters

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

I see

wooden obsidian
#

bs5's the big kicker

bronze rose
#

would you take two squads of 5 or one squad of 10?

wooden obsidian
#

one of 5

#

points efficiency and all that

bronze rose
#

makes sense

#

any idea what else to add with the extra points I'd gain?

wooden obsidian
#

also horus heresy really, really rewards specialization and maxxing out squads for certain things

wooden obsidian
#

to tarpit other people's contemptors

bronze rose
#

I guess I will have to bring him though

wooden obsidian
#

contemptor loadouts change depending on whether or not your opponent is also bringing them

bronze rose
#

I went to the work of putting him on a tactical rock from my garden

wooden obsidian
#

fyi the best contemptor loadout is gravis melta + fist, grav gun in fist

#

lets you turn the opponents charge into a disordered one on a lucky hit

bronze rose
#

I see, I've always done melta fist

#

but I'll try that loadout

wooden obsidian
#

but in my exprience contemptors exist soley to tarpit other contemptors

#

like a big contemptor measuring competition yk

bronze rose
#

I think most of my opponents have stopped bringing vehicles

#

the one guy that did bring them has just stopped playing 😢

#

I'm the only true vehicle loyalist

wooden obsidian
#

you gotta use arcane magic to bring solar auxmann and black shiledmann back from the dead

bronze rose
#

of course

#

I'm going to schedule a game with the auxilia dude once I finish my typhon

#

I managed to build a rhino in ~2 hours

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

after the first one took an entire night of suffering because the bottom wouldn't fit

wooden obsidian
#

I'm dreading having to assemble mine

bronze rose
bronze rose
#

for my second one, I spread plastic glue all over the connections

#

and the sides as well

#

that seemed to help

#

the door wouldn't sit right though, so I had to glue it

wooden obsidian
#

oh also the sabres are really, really good against mechanicum

#

I know this as a mechanicum player

#

btw whatever happened to the thallax party

bronze rose
#

I decided to make a list without them, forge lord + thallax is expensive

#

I still plan to use them though

#

I'll definitely bring them for eskaton

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

the mud craves the lives of my enemies

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

leman russes do

#

and that's what he is planning to bring a lot of

#

the battle would turn into me winning the game while he waddles up the board after his immobilized tanks

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

I gave them meltabombs, but nothing survived long enough for me to need them

#

I sent one up each flank

wooden obsidian
#

against solar aux, having 6x2 thallax with 2 meltas in eskaton seems like a fluffy counter to them

bronze rose
#

perhaps I'll just give him the option

wooden obsidian
#

you seem to underestimate how unfathomably OP it is

bronze rose
#

but I won't say Eskaton, I'll say normal game or

#

MAXIMUM SUFFERING MODE

bronze rose
#

I think last time we played he brought a few

#

he also had a basilisk

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

it scattered onto his troops in front of the basilisk

#

it was very funny

wooden obsidian
#

once I'm done with DA and mech I need to do solar aux to finish off my expeditionary fleet

bronze rose
#

we didn't own blast markers at that point so we just measured circles with a tape measure

wooden obsidian
#

I got the AoD box just for the templates and such

#

then peddled off the entire contents because I found no use for any of it

bronze rose
#

I forget if we realized the actual template size or if we just did 5" in each direction for 5" blast

bronze rose
#

they're very fancy

wooden obsidian
#

ooh nice

bronze rose
#

I got them in neon green

wooden obsidian
#

thats cool

#

do they have DA logos?

bronze rose
#

no, just generic symbols

#

I probably could have gotten logos but I chose not to

#

since it would have cost more

wooden obsidian
#

iicic

bronze rose
#

interemptors would definitely be good into auxilia

#

kill on 2s and they're automatically instant death

#

on the charge you ID them with punches

wooden obsidian
#

like the "field of lascannons" thing holds true to this day

bronze rose
#

I've been on the receiving end of a tertio reaction

#

it was with custodes though so he did like a net total of 1 wound

wooden obsidian
#

lmaooo

bronze rose
#

oh yeah if you get plastic thallax, make sure to glue the feet on well

#

they fall off very easily

wooden obsidian
#

will keep that in mind

#

currently still on resinlax with are like disposable ecigs with how easily they break

bronze rose
#

my favourite moment with them was the blackshields dude disembarking to try to hunt them down, and then I reacted to move away

#

he called me a coward for running from melee

#

he then charged my tactical squad and killed like 4 dudes, because the spartan blocked his charge

wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

on my turn I popped the spartan, and then deleted the entire squad with repeaters

wooden obsidian
#

also apparently there's a really decent BS melee list

#

with the right oathes

bronze rose
#

aberrant

wooden obsidian
#

maybe that could bait him back

bronze rose
#

and probably panoply IF

bronze rose
wooden obsidian
bronze rose
#

I was originally going to play blackshields

wooden obsidian
#

they are pretty cool when done right

bronze rose
#

I've seen some of the armies on here, they're very cool

#

but you need to be dedicated

#

you can't just half-ass it

wooden obsidian
#

can't just give them a colour scheme that has a very different meaning in the western hemisphere

bronze rose
#

lmao

wooden obsidian
#

oh now you have a printer... you could guide him into playing a legion#

bronze rose
#

yes

wooden obsidian
#

try to guide him into the most 0 iq melee legion

bronze rose
#

He'd need something durable so he doesn't give up after getting overwatched

wooden obsidian
