PourSpelur Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 As I'm painting up my Sisters for OFCC I've been thinking about tournament lists. How's something like this sound? Flesh Tearers Formation: Libby 2x Scout squads 6x Drop pods Sisters of Battle 3x dominions 3x sisters squads Anyone have ideas, opinions, concerns, statements, suggestions, queries, tips or pointers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PourSpelur Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Neither. I'm noodling towards making the hardest, tourney list I can manage. So the goal is tough and simple to play...go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophecy Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 This a cool list. Retributors with heavy bolters could also be a good choice maybe some seraphim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Neither. I'm noodling towards making the hardest, tourney list I can manage. So the goal is tough and simple to play...go! The second list is probably more tourney friendly. If you don't like the mini-Celestine/SG deathstar, you could also do something like this (Ob sec!) 1850 Uriah (with Rets in Bastion) - 100 5 BSS with 2 Flamers in TL-MM Immo - 130 5 BSS with 2 Flamers in TL-MM Immo - 130 5 BSS with 2 Flamers in TL-MM Immo - 130 5 BSS with 2 Flamers in TL-MM Immo - 130 5 BSS with 2 Meltas - 80 (Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Retributors with 4 HF (Pod) - 100 (In Drop Pod) 5 Retributors with 4 HF (Pod) - 100 (In Drop Pod) 7 Retributors with 4 HB, Veteran and Simulacrum - 132 (In Bastion) Bastion with Comms - 105 6 Drop Pods - 210 Librarian - 65 6 Scouts - 66 5 Scouts - 55 5 Obsec plus 4 Obsec Immos, 5 Pods full of ignores cover and rending, 1 pod with just BSS in it, 2 scout squads and a bastion. Muhahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 maybe some seraphim. Nope. Seraphim just don't cut it much anymore. :( Although I guess with a Sang Priest they would be better, but still... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 I like the Celestine/SG list the most just for funsies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 From a modelling perspective, it'd be cool to use Seraphim for the Sang Guard and paint them gold to show they are the allied models. Use Sang Guard wings to differentiate, although aren't you scratch building? So that might make it easier. Make the scouts SOB initiates and use a suitably converted Canoness for the Sang Priest. It'd be awesome. Great, now I want to build a new army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 That list looks amazing. My only thought is why the librarian instead of, say, a chaplain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 That list looks amazing. My only thought is why the librarian instead of, say, a chaplain? The Obsec one? Just the psy powers. Chaplain doesn't really bring anything to the list. Libby doesn't either, but at least I can roll a psy power. I guess I could take a Sang Priest instead and put him in the bastion to give Uriah FNP. Either way, probably hide him and go for Strategic. edit: Oh wow. BA Libbies get Divination? That's cool. Definitely rolling with the rets or even doms depending on power then. Stupid no casing powers inside a building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Ordo Open St Celestine - 135 (with Sang Guard) 5 BSS with Flamer x2 in Immolator - 130 (In reserve) 10 BSS with Melta/Heavy Flamer/Meltabomb - 140 (In Drop Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Dominions with 4 Melta (Pod) - 105 (In Drop Pod) 5 Retributors with 4 HF (Pod) - 100 (In Drop Pod) 5 Retributors with 4 HF (Pod) - 100 (In Drop Pod) 7 Retributors with 4 HB, Veteran and Simulacrum - 132 (In Bastion) Bastion with Comms - 105 6 Drop Pods - 210 Sanguinary Priest with Angel's Wing and Power Weapon - 95 (with Sang Guard) 5 Scouts - 55 5 Scouts - 55 7 Sanguinary Guard with 3 Inferno Pistols (261) 1850 I wonder how many models I'd need to make this happen... Probably a couple HF at least. Definitely the scouts and Sang Guard, although counts-as might help out a bit there. Hmmm... Celestine with FNP. Mmmm.

pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Damn that's a sweet list. I think the only problem is leadership for the acts of faith. Which can be mitigated by making Celestine the warlord and dutifully walking her down the board with her entourage. Oh and the bleeding of kill points.

pretre Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Rending, deep-striking heavy flamers are the stuff of nightmares. :D They do pretty okay work. In the DAG tourney, the (just 5 of them): - Put 2 wounds on a bike seer with the 'I hang out alone' relic, put a wound on a Mawloc, died horribly - Killed the crap out of some MaNZ, then got charged by a stompa, died horribly. - Sniped out the Sanguinary priest from a wolfstar, got charged by a wolf lord, died horribly. At Guadian cup, they: - Killed off a devastator squad, put some wounds on stuff, got charged by a contemptor, died horribly - Put like 60 wounds over 2 turns on a guard blob, killed Khan and a bunch of other dudes, did pretty well for themselves - Put 0 wounds on a Thunderfire/techmarine, got charged by vulkan and died horribly. Never made a faith check with them at GC though. Pretty much, they drop, precision mess something up and then die horribly. Having 2-3 of them though? hooooo boy. And Dominions with Drop pods (which I haven't used yet) is just a horrifying idea. "Oh, you brought a superheavy? That's cute." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted March 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Wow, that's pretty much exactly what I was looking for! No big gimmick, uber combos or anything like that. Just lots of flame and melta up in your face. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PourSpelur Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 The open list with the Bastion, single Immolator, Celestine and Sang. Guard looks to be right up my alley! I couldn't even think about starting this until after OFCC though. Fluger: incoming pm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbusePuppy Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 You really should drop one of the Scout units to get a Tactical Squad in a Pod (or swap the Sang Guard for Sternguard/Command Squad in one) so that you have four pods coming down on the first turn. That's the biggest issue I see coming up- against anything that can weather your firepower and/or mitigate it with Interceptor or other abilities, the list is going to struggle greatly.
