I'm still contemplating whether to use my Cadian 7th or my Slaanesh Warhost for the coming tournament. I've created a fluffy 1750 Slaanesh list but yet to test it out since too busy with the campaign, league and what not. Well here goes:
HQ
Daemon Prince with MoS, LoS and Wings - 155pts
Daemon Prince with MoS, LoS and Wings - 155pts
ELITE
6x Chosen with 3 meltaguns, Flamer, Rhino- 178pts
TROOPS
6x NM with A.Champion, Doom Siren, P.Weapon and 5x Sonic Blaster - 190pts
6x NM with A.Champion, Doom Siren, P.Weapon and 5x Sonic Blaster - 190pts
6x NM with A.Champion, Doom Siren, Rhino - 185pts
HEAVY
3x Obliterator - 225pts
Land Raider with Extra Armour - 235pts
Land Raider with Extra Armour - 235pts
Total Points: 1748.
Quite brittle army list and careful plannings/tactics are needed due to low resources. But that's where lies the fun! I had experience with 2 land raiders Slaanesh army during the 2nd Season Legio League and it was a force to be reckoned with. The DPs with LoS to attract vulnerable units to Doom Siren range and assault them since they are I 6. The Chosen will be the surprise element with their ability to outflank and pop enemy tanks with melta (Iqbal's idea). 2 units of NM are to embark into the Land Raider and surge forward or take up defensive position. The other NM in Rhino are to contest or grab objectives. Finally Oblits will provide heavy fire support or acts as a surprise attack with their deep strike capability.
IG baby!! I like the sacred numbers but 2 DP, LoS/Wings is fluffy? ;)
ReplyDeleteyou really need to test this list first. wielding 2 DPs with lash is something you need to practice.
ReplyDeleteAgainst a gunline, they'll die.
Vs IG, especially mech, LoS will mostly be nullified.
conclusion: use IG man, you've painted them up nicely. Do include and finish that manticore you're building.
deathkorps: is it not fluffy?, hehe, well i was thinking replacing one DP with Lucius the Eternal
ReplyDeleteGrimfang: yep u got it rite with the assessment, rite now 70:30 balancing more on IG..hmmm still i want to test out this list though..
DOn't really like it brother.
ReplyDelete2 DPs commanding 24 marines. Slaanesh is being too generous with his gift?
Play IG lah.. Dah lah cun, power pulak tu.
hey, the 'chosen melta' was supposed to be my Legion's trademark..hahaha :p
ReplyDeleteCadian 7th man! You got to redeem your loss of Arenxis Minoris to Chaos! :)
ReplyDeleteBesides, I never like 2DP builds
