Hi guys, I've only played a few matches of HH around 1k-2k points. And now that my LGS is going to host a narrative tournament soon, I was wondering if this will work. I'm not so sure if this will be too IMBA or anything that will ruin other's experience, hopefully I can get some advices from more experienced players.

looks OK. everyone has a different level of "narrative". I'd say the limiting thing/not IMBA thing in your list is the lack of vehicles. You got some strong stuff, but they will be walking the whole game. Only "odd" thing I would say is the 5 man centurion command squad. What's your plan with them?

#

Otherwise, still a strong list if ya get the rolls, but imo riding the line a bit

With Centurion+3Consul you are getting 5 Auxilliary detachment but only using 3 while using Logistical benefit on your Librarian to get your second Retinue

As a TS you could use the Prosperine Convocation one or two time to get 2 prime advantage on Troops (your tactical currently in principal), one of which could be the aforementioned Logistical Benefit

#

Also i'm not sure about bringing Ahriman to a narrative tournament, those event like to restrict named character sometimes, check with your TO

Plus what Myotis had said, I'm not sure if ahriman will be suitable for a narrative tournament, so I'll need to tweak my list for quite a bit

Yeah I would not run them across the field. You can distract with DS saturine, but you would be avoiding turn 1 killing on them by hiding them await and not moving forward

What should I bring for my LC now is something I'm kind of curious haha

tough one; I would really reccomend a transport if you want to run him

Interesting list, you have some very strong options and I like the use of osiraen and other powers. however if you don’t get the roll for deep strike with the saturnine you will be missing 800+ points of your army until turn 3 or 4. As well as that you have 5 characters totalling nearly 1000pts of your army so you effectively will have 1800 points worth of units that potentially won’t be doing much shooting or fighting until turn 3/4. With 2 high command choices you will also be risking slay the warlord secondary twice. I think that this list is very swingy, if you get the roll off for deep strike turn 2 you will crush your opponents, if you don’t they will crush you. Maybe cut some points from characters to bring some other narrative options. With a saturnine praetor high command and 2 librarians you have all the detachments you need and you save 400 points. Maybe upgrade the centurion command squad to a praetorian command squad so they have a chance of survival or some other cool units with the extra points. These are all just suggestions, overall it looks like a very cool list

I've done quite some changes with the list, mostly with getting rid of unnecessary characters and stuffs like that. Hopefully this might be the one that I'll go with, thanks in advance!
