Tunneling Trygon






Well, I have a dream of:

Flyrant, dakka, HC
Flyrant, Dakka
20 gants with Devourers in Spore Pod
Tervigon with Toxin/Adrenal, 3 powers, talons, outflanking
3 Ripper swarms
Dakkafex in a Pod
Dakkafex in a Pod
Doom in a SPod
3 Zoanthropes in a SPod
5 Ymgarl genestealers
Aegis Defense Line with Comms relay

I deploy the Flyrants and Rippers
Rippers man Comms relay, out of LoS of enemy army (behind Aegis line are too low to be shot), Tyrants fly off table. With a 2+ re rollable for reserves, I'll get everything turn 2 right in my opponents face. In a 5 turn game, theres a 99% chance either myself or my opponent is getting tabled.

For 1850, drop Y Stealers, three gants and the Scytals on the Tervi.

The Marine Standing Behind Marneus Calgar





Upstate, New York

SM bike army. I picked up enough bikes for the mediatory troop picks, need to assemble and paint them.

Ironclad w/hurricane bolter and 2xHSs. He's like a AV13 tac squad strolling across the table. Not sure if it's worth the opportunity cost of not drop podding him in with a more conventional loadout though.

Lysander + Cassius formed into a IC HQ unit. It would be the ultimate buddy comedy film! You have T6 due to the average toughness rule, 2+/3++ EW taking hits on point, and the hammer of Dorn re-rolling misses on the charge due to the chaplain. Hijinks ensue as your roll across the table mulching stuff.

These two can be done in the same list:

1. Max squad of tau stealth suits, all with burst cannons, all with the wargear that lets them make precision shots.

2. Stealth suits and kroot, all across the board. Infiltrate everything! (krootox and shadowsun in a fusion stealth suit squad for anti tank...yeah)

Well I have 2. One, 2,000 points Tyranids

HQ 3 Tervigons, 3 powers, adrenal glands, toxin sacs

Troops 5 Tervigons, tricked out the same, 4 x13 and 1 x12 gants.

cliche using tervigons, but oh my, so much of fun. Hellishly expensive, just the reserve gants alone would need a case to themselves.

And the second is more reasonable in terms of my wallet.

Dark Eldar 1850

Urien Rakarth and some haemonculi.

3 squads of 4x Grotesques in raiders.

Wracks in raiders.

A literal bucket full of guardsmen.

I have the bucket, but its only a quarter full. I estimate I'll need 500 more guardsmen to fill it. Oh well, apoc here I come.

I collect:
Guard - 2k of mostly infantry
DA - 2k of deathwing, 2k of other bits (no vehicles)
Sisters - mostly converted/proxy because I'm waiting for therange to go plastic.
Tau - 2k with no riptides because I can.

I'll second this - and I might even do it one day. Heaven knows it'd be easy enough to paint quickly.
Another one I'd love to do is Blood Ravens with the characters converted to represent the various named Marines from the Dawn of War series. So for instance, the Chapter Master would be bionic Gabriel Angelos, Avitus would lead the Devastator squad, etc etc...

Sneaky Striking Scorpion





Sweden

Melee Eldar List:

Solitarch

Camping Guardian Squads with Starcannons and/or Windrider Jetbikes as troops.

3x 10 man Striking Scorpion Squads, Exarchs and Scorpion Claws on all of them.

3x 9 man Shining Spear Squads, Exarchs, Hit and Run and Star Lance on all of them.

That army will get into combat on turn 2 with all units, and they will hopefully slaughter the enemy by turn 3.


Unrelated to 40k, but a hilarous Fantasy army.


Zombie Apocalypse Vampire Counts:

Blenderlord with Level 4 mounted on a horse.

5x Level 2 Necromancers

5x 50 man units of Zombies

14 Black Knights

+ a couple of added goodies of choice.

This army will not die. Never, ever, ever, ever will it die. Againt this ludicrous amount of Zombies, nothing can stand. The enemy will be stuck in a war of attrition they can't win. Don't be fooled, it's not only 250 Zombies, for every Invocation of Nehek (the VC resurrection spell, that each Necromancer has) 2D6+2 Zombies will get back up, in an AOE, and they can be increased beyond their starting level. With a bit of luck this could easily approach 400 Zombies in the army. They won't kill anything, but the Vampire Lord and the Black Knights should be able to handle that.
