Mulgrok Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 I edited the list to include the recent PL changes and randomized unit selection. I have no doubt the indomitus stuff will all go up 1-2 PL when the new codex hits. Dracones Solis is just faux latin for Sun Dragons, a Salamander successor chapter. Using successor chapter tactics: Whirlwind of Rage: units gain an additional hit on unmodified hit rolls of 6 until the end of the turn if they heroically intervene, charge, are charged Hungry For Battle: +1 to all advance and charge rolls 1 win out of 3 battles 63 PL 8 crusade points 0 RP out of 8 RP total -3 RP: supply limit -2 RP: relics -3 RP: WL traits + HQ + Cikar Ur'Venn - Captain in Gravis Armor [6 PL, +1 crusade points]: 4 xp - The Imperium's Sword Sholta Ekshor - Librarian [6 PL, +5 crusade points]: 6 xp - 4) Drakeskin, 5) Fury of Nocturne, Bolt pistol, Force sword, Jump Pack, Warlord: Anvil of Strength, Obsidian Aquila, Master-Crafted Armor, Inspiring Hero + Troops + Infiltrator Squad [6 PL]: 3 xpInfiltrator Squad [6 PL]Tactical Squad [5 PL]: 1 xp Combi-flamer, Powerfist, Melta gun Assault Intercessor Squad [5 PL] Tactical Squad [5 PL]: 1 xp Fatigued, Power sword, Combi-flamer, Melta gun + Elites + Xuv'sar Hasdar'Get - Judiciar [4 PL, +2 crusade points]: 1 xp - Artificer Armor, Champion of Humanity + Heavy Support + Eradicator Squad [5 PL]: 1 xp Eradicator Squad [5 PL] + Fast Attack + Outriders [6 PL]: 3 xp Battle-Weary Rhino [4 PL] EDIT: I messed up when rolling Sholta's trait and relic. I didn't give him a chapter specific relic. Adjusted his crusade point total accordingly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ish Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 Are you sure you have enough flamers and melta weapons? There’s got to be a way to duct tape a flamer onto a Rhino, right? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyraeus Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 Don't forget you start with 5 Requisition Points as well which is your maximum. So you will want to spend some for either relics, warlord traits, being able to take more PL, etc https://imgur.com/a/HkV9euC 3rd to 6th page. You dont get Relics, Warlord Traits of Stratagem Upgrades unless you spend RP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulgrok Posted July 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 I added some PL for another HQ I like my HQ to be tougher to kill. Wish i could give him a 2nd WL trait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulgrok Posted August 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Decided to go completely random and used CA 2019 random army generator to pick the units. When it gave me the option to pick an HQ I randomly selected from 5 HQ. I rolled for all powers, traits, relics. EDIT: decided to roll for what specific units within each type I would use and had to change accordingly. EDIT2: removed the last unit roll I made so I could refund RP and spend them on random stuff for the judiciar 49 PL 8 crusade points -2 RP: relics -3 RP: WL traits + HQ + Captain in Gravis Armor [6 PL, +2 crusade points]: The Imperium's Sword Librarian [6 PL, +4 crusade points]: 4) Drakeskin, 5) Fury of Nocturne, Bolt pistol, Force sword, Jump Pack, Warlord: Anvil of Strength, Obsidian Aquila + Troops + Infiltrator Squad [6 PL]Infiltrator Squad [6 PL]Tactical Squad [5 PL] + Elites + Judiciar [4 PL, +2 crusade points]: Artificer Armor, Champion of Humanity + Heavy Support + Eradicator Squad [5 PL] Eradicator Squad [5 PL] + Fast Attack + Outriders [6 PL] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulgrok Posted August 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Rolled for chapter traits and got: Whirlwind of Rage, Hungry for Battle which means: 1) when charged, charge or heroicly intervene my units get an additional hit on unmodified hit rolls of 6 in the fight phase that turn 2) +1 to all advance and charge rolls 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ish Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Null Zone isn’t quite as scary, honestly, 4++ Invulnerable Save (or better) across the entire army is great... But everything also has a base 2+ Save normally, so it takes some pretty heavy hitting firepower to dent the golden gitz. But the Judicar’s pocket watch which can force enemy units within 6” to fight after every other combat has been resolved is huge. Custodes shooting is mediocre, at best, they really lean on using mêlée to do damage... and when I’ve only got 5 or 6 units total on the table in a large game (and maybe 2-3 in a small one) forcing one of them to sit on their hands for a fight phase can really hurt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulgrok Posted August 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Realised Judiciars are characters. So I removed the last unit roll I made (2 troop choices) and refunded the RP I spent to increase PL for them. Used the RP to give the judiciar random stuff. Results were not great, but not terrible either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulgrok Posted August 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 I haven't finished painting any of the indomitus stuff. Haven't even started on the judiciar. Sucks that poor health is limiting the time I can work on stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulgrok Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Sholta Ekshor's recon patrol spotted a small Necron force. Being true to their chapter trait they eagerly rushed into battle and over-extended in their assault. Despite suffering heavy losses, they refused to turn their retreat into a rout. Sholta made a desperate charge in to duel their leader. Decapitating the Necron leader's head caused the remaining enemies to power down. A successful assassination mission accomplished. Sholta picked up a couple accolades for his bravery despite failing to keep his men disciplined. He donned a newly forged set of Master-crafted Armor and the rumors of his prowess in the duel has inspired the chapter. Cikar attempted a mission to secure territory and remove hostile forces. They encountered a patrol of Raven Guard who didn't recognize the Dracones Solis markings. Cikar's lack of experience caused the chance meeting to devolve into a bloody massacre. His men started in complete disarray and failied to do anything of note. Luckily, they were able to escape with without suffering grievous injuries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
