Here's what I got so far!

The idea is to use all the AP2 shooting (especially the Scorpius) to get the Dark Brethren perks early on, and then to put everything into melee while scoring with the Line squads. Im supposed to lock everything up, let the shooting do it's thing, and have my melee chop up or threaten whatever is coming after my scoring units or the melee themselves. The Dark Brethren bonus can make the Power Mauls instant death really easily, and especially on the Gal Vhorbak with their Strength 5. This is a purely theoretical list that Im making to eventually build and run, so I can make any adjustments needed to make it more playable/fun! Just lmk what y'all think!

Oh he is, neat

#

Minimum size is probably not ideal, tho

#

Also, Argel Tal really doesn't want a command squad

#

He should be running with the Gal Vorbak

Gotcha >:3

#

I'll see everything else yall got for me in the morning

He doesn't buff them as much without his trait, but still better than the command squad

I personally always advocate for having daemons with Word Bearers.

#

They just do very well with them.

But here's the list I was looking at as of now

Esoterist?

I wanted to run him before I realized I wont be able to purchase him 😔

That's a pity. Could prolly kitbash him though if you wanted to.

Hm hm...

#

Not my area of expertise I am afraid

upper lava
#

I have some kitbashed Chosen (converted from Dark Angel models) I planned on using for the TSS and Command squad

#

And some other stuff, if I can make them look like they fit the bill

#

But that's about all I have in the way of Kitbashes or Converted models

Gonna need to ask him about what paint he used for the red ngl

Magna Melta Predators are a quick and punchy anti dread/ anti tank option if you're ever in need of that. I usually run them in all of my WB lists

Even with just heavy bolter sponsons
