RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - The Count - 20-12-2012 Thanks for the comments guys - much appreciated really. I will have that Storm raven by the way, whatever happens, Ta. I can buy or we can swap. I have loads to get rid of, especially sisters. Having looked at the scenario pack for Caledonian there are no points for VP's lost - its all on objectives and tie breakers, so..... Was thinking of dropping the apo for sure and with Robs list I could also drop Draigo. Mordrak will make the paladins scoring anyhow. What are peoples views on the flyer? I have 5 minutes at work so will post a 'non draigo' list in a while. Cheers again guys - keep it coming! (and I promise to return the complement and look at some of your similar threads!) RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - Sincilbanks - 20-12-2012 I'd be more scared of a Vindicator or 2 with that list I think.. Str10 AP1? Lotsa dead paladins... RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - The Count - 20-12-2012 Played 2 Vindicators this week. Killed one with Mordraks deep strike. The second was nasty but you wont often see two. Every army has its nemesis! Anyway I think Rob has hit on something. Mordrak and Coteaz 10 Paladins (4 x m/c psy cannons, 3 x m/c hammers, no apo Land Raider Crusader with 5 Grey knights inside Land raider Redeemer with 5 Grey Knights inside Razorback with t/l heavy bolter and psybolt ammo. 1790pts The Razorback will have 60pts to spend on it or occupants. Option 1 - 3 x cheap acolytes (120 leaving enough to give Razorback t/l assault cannon and storm bolter with a few pts left for m/c's Option 2 - Acolytes with meltas or plasmas Option 3 - Psyker squad of 5 and a couple of acolytes for a 36" S8 AP1 large blast ranged psychic power. I like this list as the two raiders and occupants deploy, allowing the Razorback and/or occupants to reserve if needed. Try a Daemon or Drop Pod assault against that lot! RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - The Count - 20-12-2012 Remembered Coteaz cant deep strike, but that doesnt negate the ideas validity.

Dropping the RB leaves enough pts for a Dreadknight.. dropping Coteaz free's the pts for an Incinerator and Teleporter lol - would that be going to far? RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - Nick1988 - 20-12-2012 Acolytes with hot shot lasguns work well for 9 points! The stormraven i have has the missile launcher and assault cannons bit i have all the spares if u wanna change it up! RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - GoNecrons - 20-12-2012 Can you get a dreadknight in instead. That gets my vote. Two AV14 + lots of 2+ including a 2+ MC. Must have the teleporter with it or just too slow.

RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - The Count - 20-12-2012 Decided not to got Dread Knight for now. I think one dreadnought can be an easy target, though it could hide inbetween the raiders. I like Robs idea for the two raider list and am sold on it I think, so who occupies the razorback? 1 - Cheap acolytes with points to upgrade elsewhere 2 - Acolytes with meltas 3 - Psykers RE: Out with the Nids and in with this insane list! - Embolden - 20-12-2012 (20-12-2012, 06:20 PM)The Count Wrote: Decided not to got Dread Knight for now. I think one dreadnought can be an easy target, though it could hide inbetween the raiders. I would go with say 5 Acolytes in Marine armour and hot-shot lasguns, so they can sweep away some Marine on an objective and take a hit. |
