This is gunna be a bit floaty, on account of how word bearers can take demons, or go MEQ heavy, or go dreadnought shanigans.
Apologies in advance.

  • This is also using the now revealed by content creator points, so fair warning~ spoilers I guess.

I really wanna do Lorgar + demons, but till we know demons rules, thats up in the air, same as erebus (GW gimme!!)
I will still be running lorgar just not transfigured for time being. (no point loosing disciplines to gain demon summoning, if theirs no demon to summon 😐 )

pure charm
#

I’m interested to see what others think, I’ve never played. If this is a good list this what I’m gonna be running.

formal junco
#

its got 20x more space marines than starter box
but thats just stuff I picked up ages ago as 2 boxes of 10
and obviously a lorgar rooDuck

plain rapids
#

Isn't primarchs it's own slot now?

formal junco
#

its a lord of war
but I thought it also took HQ Thinkingmorning

#

Oh "primarch" slot

plain rapids
#

Yeah

formal junco
#

there you go, fixed

plain rapids
#

That way you have more HQ slots 😉

formal junco
#

NODDERS noice.

cunning cove
#

Still limited by Master of the Legion

plain rapids
#

That you know, primarchs are

formal junco
#

Added in a Centurion NODDERS diabloist

plain rapids
#

Damn didn't even see the double praetors.

formal junco
#

that 2 handed Axe guy is very sneaky

jolly bay
#

Without artificer sgts you risk your blobs being shot apart by ap3 shooting or killed in cc by power swords

formal junco
#

easy fix.

plain rapids
#

Tbf they both could rock Paragons

formal junco
#

rescBlank oh..

cunning cove
#

as in paragon blades?

plain rapids
#

Yez

cunning cove
#

Paragon axe 3sRoISee

formal junco
#

gave paragon blade to the 2nd axe guy
Kaneki_Hmm

plain rapids
#

Paragon is just a fancy blade weapon.

formal junco
#

5 points more than tainted axe Shrug

chilly trail
#

Where are the two predators going?

#

Praetors

formal junco
#

The Burning lore praetor is blob support essentially to start with
the Paragon blade paetor is gunna be assisting termes.

abstract wedge
#

its a list

#

lorgar is good

#

2 praetors are unnecessary and if you're bringing the spartan i would put lorgar and termies in it

#

not a heavy support squad

#

load the contemptor with what ever sounds or looks cool

#

i would run the praetors as centurions

#

just to get the cool consularis options like champion or chaplain

#

those are very good at keeping units in line

#

or just dishing out damage

#

and champs get free paragon blades if i remember correctly

plain rapids
#

The axe prae as a champion is something i've considered.

abstract wedge
#

that would be sick

#

huge paragon axe

plain rapids
#

Yeah

#

Just take someone's head clean off.

formal junco
#

Kaneki_Hmm okay

#

I feel like figuring out HQs is gunna be my biggest gripe, its so much choice

plain rapids
#

Mood

formal junco
#

sharkpupisee understood

abstract wedge
#

i disagree whole heartedly with the moritat being ignored

#

ashen circle are a fantastic unit and a moritat just by himself is unironically a great way to disrupt enemy lines

#

he gets to chainfire with warp fire pistols

#

with no penalties aside from no charging

#

and if he's by himself

#

that's not really a you problem

formal junco
#

I believe ellie is saying ignore it since I dont have ashen circle on list.
as it stands sipEmotional itll be a while cause forge world models

#

AA_Kanna_Fire WARPFIRE!

#

its more of a throw together list to get started while I spread out
as it stands, I want to move towards close range, so ashen circle and friends aint a bad call
I also want to start a dreadnought friendship rite, involving mhara gals so Shrug

abstract wedge
#

what is everyone's thoughts on Zardu Layak?

#

like his soul binding power seems great but telepathic chains seems terrible

abstract wedge
#

yea he's definitley the strongest hq option

#

i don't think thats up for debate

#

at least until we see daemons of the ruinstorm rules
