I've been thinking of a way to get some Ironclads back into the fight, and I figured maybe a force that applies pressure by advancing "other scary stuff" with some other units at the time of their arrival would maybe allow them to get into combat... thoughts on this?

Torn between two lists though... both use Clan Raukaan Supplement and Imperial Knights Codex:

#1

Chapter Master - bike, artificer armor, gorgon's chain, power fist
Bike Squad (5) - melta bombs
Scout Squad (5) - bolters, melta bombs, land speeder storm w/heavy bolter
Tactical Squad (5) - pod, melta
Tactical Squad (5) - pod, melta

Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer
Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer
Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer

Fire Raptor - autocannons

Knight Errant


#2

MotF - Ironstone

Scout Squad (5) - ccw, melta bombs
Scout Squad (5) - bolters, land speeder storm w/heavy flamer
Tactical Squad (10) - pod, melta
Tactical Squad (10) - pod, melta

Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer
Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer
Ironclad - pod, assault launchers, ccw w/heavy flamer, chainfist w/heavy flamer

Land Raider Crusader - multi-melta

Knight Errant

#1!

Fire raptor rocks. Unfortunately its not quite as good at AA without the Reaper Batteries but whatever.

Biker Lord is battle tested to kick ass as we all know

I dig the Ironclad loadouts. Would love to do the same with my thousand sons when I get the money to buy the fething models heh MAYHEM PACK W00T

Go nuts

Adjusted List #1 a bit to have a Chapter Master, although I'm not sure if my troops are going to have trouble holding objectives...they're pretty light, we'll see. I don't foresee them getting too much attention though with all the other things in their face. Thoughts?

Take a MotF?

Bam! 6 Ironclads. Good luck dealing with all of them

this is excellent advice. Put them in pods, bring some DWL (cuz you can't hurt ironclads with the launcher), and suddenly you have death robots ripping things apart. So many heavy flamers, so little time.
