Hello, I'm entering a beginner friendly Horus Heresy league (mostly casual friendly and narrative focused), so I made this list:

HQ
• Armillus Dynat (185 pts)
• Exodus (165 pts)

Troops
• Legion Scout Squad 10 models + nemesis bolter (205 pts)
• Legion Tactical Squad 10 models + legion vexilla + 10 chain bayonet+ Sargeant with plasma pistol and power dagger (145 pts)
• Headhunter Kill Team 10 models + Artificer Armour + Melta bombs (250 pts)

Elites
• Lernean Terminator Squad (250 pts)

Heavy support
• Tyrant Siege Terminators (300 pts)

Total 1500/1500

I know that the Legion Scouts are not one of the best units, but I love the idea of having some sniper types alongside Exodus. The main line units would be the Lernean Termis and the Tacs, with the Tyrants hunting down vehicles and the Headhunters killing characters.

What do you think of this list? Would you cut/add something?

To run the HH Leviathal RoW you need more Fast Attack units than Heavy Support. You'd need to bring those HH KTs into FA and split them to run the Tyrants

#

As far as fluff goes, you're doing just fine. Dynat was a fan of joint ops using vehicles, but you could flavor the list as being a side deployment on a theater he was commanding.

#

For list efficiency, Dynat and Exodus together could be a bit mean in a 1500 point list and you're going to suffer with only one squad of tacticals. The Tyrants and Lerneans are probably going to double dip in terms of role so maybe one goes to the chopping block for another squad of Tacticals

Thoughts? <@&877304032014794762>

Oh, damn, I forgot about the whole Fast Attack limitation

#

Maybe I'll swap the HA for more tacs and choose another rite

#

Thanks mate!

No problem, it's a good RoW if not just for the extra vp from slay the warlord

#

Especially when compared to our other unique RoW which is pretty terrible
