WestRider Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 I like all the individual bits, but I'm not sure the whole really stacks up. 6 Pods is mildly unfortunate. The bigger issue I see is that you don't have enough starting on the table to properly block off the Void Shield area, so a lot of the Armies you want it against are going to be able to drop in there and kill the Generator right off the bat. Maybe add a couple more CyberWolves to the Iron Priest so he can Join one of the Wulfen Packs, really string out from them, and slingshot them into combat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted June 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 I had also thought of not putting units in drop pods and using the drop pods as just obsec holders. Then I could use them as walking units to block. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 I've also been thinking about using Dreadnought rules for Penitent engines with a SOB CAD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Something like this: CAD Celestine - 135 5 BSS with 2 Meltas and TL-MM Immo - 140 5 BSS with 2 Meltas and TL-MM Immo - 140 VSG with 2 Extra Shields - 100 5 Doms with 4 Melta in Repressor - 180 5 Doms with 4 Melta in Repressor - 180 5 Doms with 4 Melta in Repressor - 180 Honored Ancients (IH for IWND) Rifleman - 120 Rifleman - 120 Rifleman - 120 Ancients of the Fang (SW) Dreadnought with HF/HF - 110 Dreadnought with HF/HF - 110 Dreadnought with HF/HF - 110 Elite Iron Priest with TWM - 105 1850 Funny, but I don't like it other than the idea yet. The riflemen are conversions from Penitents and the HF/HF would be straight Penitents. Iron Priest would be an iron Priest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yeah, I haven't played sisters in a while so there is an appeal. The Acheron is just a point sink so I don't have to be clever though. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretre Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I will say that if the Open decides to use the Draft FAQ, I would probably switch to Blackmanes just for the drop pod shenanigans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbusePuppy Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 The ITC vote this coming week will almost certainly render that portion of the FAQ meaningless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Yeah, I imagine the vote will be pretty one sided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
