Remember, the crescendo of artillery is the voice of the Emperor. ;) Yeah, that one is pretty funny. I also made variants with Zhadsnark/Warbikers/Painboy and Steel Host (no Void Shield) and Conscripts/Infantry/Commissara and Steel Host. The SOB one is pretty awesome though.

pretre Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I may be biased because of my vocal love of both tanks and Sisters though... Well, considering this is a 'soft' event with a hard list allowance, I don't think it is off the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I just noticed that Void Relay Network is an option. Who doesn't need 3 Void Shield Generators? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'm thinking void sisters blob is probably my best bet at all comers in a open list field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Unfortunately, the Allied Detachment doesn't have a Fortification slot, so the AS+Steel Host list doesn't work :( I like the idea of the Mech+VSG because dropping the Shields will take up a non-negligible amount of their Anti-Tank firepower, leaving any Anti-Infantry firepower with nothing to do for longer. Target Saturation is usually a good thing :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Bah! Stupid allies. Good catch though! That's why I like the VSG. It keeps the toys alive for a while. The two 'pure' sisters lists are my favorite. Hmm. I'll keep working on kit bashing the VSG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I kinda really like that second one. Now I need to figure out what my three-year-old did with the two painted servitors I have. Grr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Figure I'll toss my list ponderings in here, too, since we're paired up for this. My original plan mostly centered around bringing my Pods down and just moving my Wolves over to those instead of their Tanks for Friday, but then I saw some of the other talk about what people were bringing (in particular, AdLance builds and other heavy Armour) and decided I needed to kick things up a couple of notches. SW CADWGBL, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs5 Wolf Guard, 5 Combi-Meltas, 3 Meltabombs, Drop Pod5GH, 5xCCW, Meltagun, WGPL, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs, Drop Pod5GH, 5xCCW, Meltagun, WGPL, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs, Drop Pod5GH, 5xCCW, Plasmagun, WGPL w/ Combi-Plasma, Meltabombs, Drop Pod5GH, 5xCCW, Plasmagun, WGPL w/ Combi-Plasma, Meltabombs, Drop PodFirebase Support CadreIonTide, EWO3 MissileSides, EWO 3 RailSides 1500 on the dot if I did my math right. Not too happy with the Battle Leader, I'd rather have my regular Rune Priest, but the BL is 55 Points cheaper, and Points get tight here. I might drop the EWOs, a couple of Meltabombs, and trade one Plasma Pack to another Melta to fit in a cheap Servo-Skrull Inquisitor to help bring Pods in more accurately and keep Scouts/Infiltrators away from my Firebase. Or maybe drop a couple more Meltabombs instead and try to keep a couple of the EWOs, since the Servo-Skrulls might encourage people to Outflank more.

pretre Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Yeah, that's a rough one with points that tight. What about swapping wolf guard for another GH pack? Although they are the 'die die die' unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 I hadn't really thought of that because my whole initial goal was to get them in there, and then I wasn't really paying too much attention to the balance as I tweaked things. As everyone was originally kitted out, that would only have saved me like 20 Points, but now it's 40, which is enough to do some work with. Pick up 5 Points from any of a number of other places, and that gets me an Inquisitor with 3 Servo-Skrulls and an Inferno Pistol, which is pretty much exactly what I'd be looking for there. Danke!

WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Lessee: 65/65 - WGBL, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs 600/665 - 4x5GH, CCW, Melta, WGPL w/Combi-Melta, Meltabombs, Pod 155/820 - 5GH, CCW, Plasma, WGPL w/Combi-Plasma, Meltabombs, Pod 190/1010 - IonTide, EWO 210/1220 - 3 MissileSides, EWO 195/1415 - 3 RailSides 44/1459 - Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor, Inferno Pistol, 3 Servo-Skrulls Huh. Looks like I did my math wrong on that earlier version. When I add it up now, it only comes to 1460. Well, with that kind of space available, let's try to wedge my Rune Priest and some Anti-Air in here: 095/095 - Rune Priest, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs, Helm of Durfast 600/695 - 4x5GH, CCW, Melta, WGPL w/Combi-Melta, Meltabombs, Pod 155/850 - 5GH, CCW, Plasma, WGPL w/Combi-Plasma, Meltabombs, Pod 200/1050 - BurstTide, Velocity Tracker 210/1260 - 3 MissileSides, EWO 195/1455 - 3 RailSides 044/1499 - Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor, Inferno Pistol, 3 Servo-Skrulls There we go. That's looking pretty nice. I could also drop the Meltabombs from one Pack to take the Riptide back up to Ion, but I feel like the HBC is better Anti-Air.

WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Servo skrulls! I hate those guys. Also, looks solid. I kept misreading it that way, and finally just gave in and started spelling it like that, too. One of these days I'll get around to converting up a set that are actually Skrulls ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Also, I feel sorry for any knight heavy teams that play against us. Eh, it's hard to calculate because there are so many variables, but I reckon on the drop I can take out one Knight from an AdLance and damage another, and then I'm going to be losing 3-4 Units almost immediately after. That should still leave a fair amount of room for things to go either way after that. There's a lot of variance on that, tho, and it's entirely possible that I could pop two of them, or only manage to damage them without popping any, and then things start getting really lopsided, one way or another.

pretre Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Don't forget my list too. Unless they are double ad lance. Either way, pretty funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 My impression was that Chappy and AgentP were running double AdLance, which was what got me thinking about whether or not I could deal with that. Also gonna depend on which round we hit that matchup in, if any. Round three would be epic if it went that way, with all our stuff up against 6 Knights :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
