Brownie points if you can put a Star Wars quote in your reply.

 

So I was bored at work and decided to theory hammer a super Death Star. So here we have it

 

Space Marine CAD - Iron Hands

HQ

Chapter Master, Shield Eternal, TH, Bike, 2+

Chaplain, Bike, Burning Blade

 

Troops

Full Bike Squad, 2 Grav Guns, Multi-melta attack bike, power fist, vet Sgt

5 Tac Marines, Melta, Combi-melta, drop pod

 

Blood Angels, Flesh tearers strike force

HQ

Sanguinary Priest, Bike, Relic Blade

 

Troops

5 Tac Marines, Melta, Combi-melta

 

Fast Attack

Drop pod

 

LoW

Dante

 

Space Wolves, Company of the great wolf

HQ

Lord, Thunder Wolf, 2+, TH/SS

 

Elites

Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf

Iron Priest, Thunder Wolf

 

So it meets all the ITC rules of only 3 detachments and no duplicates. As well as only being one LoW. Comes in at 1850 points and puts all your eggs in one basket. Every point in the army other then 2 tac squads in 2 drop pods goes into a super Death Star. So just theory hammer here but lets see what you got. I want to see some crazy Death Stars.

It may not look like much, but this list has it where it counts.

I was trying to figure out how to get a Wolf Priest in there for Preferred Enemy, but couldn't do it without ramping my majority save up for Grav. I could hold it at 4+, that might be a worthwhile tradeoff.

 

I'm actually considering taking something similar, but with a couple of Storm Talons for AA, to a Tournament at Blue Sky sometime soon here.

Meh, go to 4+. 6+ is nice, but they won't last too long.

 

Also, I'm shocked that you didn't go with: "That's no Moon-Moon."

I kind of can't believe I forgot that possibility, too. For some reason, my mind was stuck on Empire Strikes Back, and I was just trying to think of Hoth quotes :P

 

The Wolf Priest option would look something like:

 

There's not Enough Life on this Ice Cube to Fill a Cruiser

White Scars CAD

Khan, Moondrakkan (Warlord)

Command Squad, Bikes, Apothecary, 4xGrav Gun

3 Bikes, 2xMeltagun, Combi-Melta, Meltabombs

 

Company of the Great Wolf

ThunderLord, Runic Armour, TH/SS, 2 FenWolves

WGBL, TW, Runic Armour, SS/Wolf Claw, Meltabombs, 2 FenWolves

WGBL, TW, Runic Armour, SS/Wolf Claw, Meltabombs, 2 FenWolves

Wolf Priest, Bike, Meltabombs

Iron Priest, TW, 3 CyberWolves

Iron Priest, TW, 2 CyberWolves

Iron Priest, TW, 2 CyberWolves

 

At this point, I think there are actually a few Points to play with, because each time I've changed it, I've just paid attention to that change to make sure it stays under the limit, and with the FenWolves not coming in at nice round numbers there have usually been a couple left each time.
