I'm currently building a
Pre-Heresy Thousand Sons Grey Knight Army and it is progressing nicely. However I've just had a recent idea to create a 2nd list which includes some fluff based Legio Cybernetica allies. My main reason for this is that I'm currently selling off a converted
Renegade Mechanicus Robot Army and I thought it'd be nice to have some of my favourite conversions from that project
(such as the one below) in the 1k sons army.
Of course I'll be looking to take them as Henchmen, most likely with Coteaz to make them troops, the main henchmen will be based off the robot in the picture below so will need to have carapace armour (can't really have a robot with a 5+ save).
I'm just unsure what weapon load out to give them, I had thought of giving them storm bolters and 1 monkey (tech adept) per squad to give me them either 36 range, 3+ armour or rending! and that's good for a 134pt support/objective grabbing unit. Also what kind of squad layout is best for Coteaz's unit?
I've also got some cheap Space crusade dreads to convert into cataphract robots for autocannon dreadnoughts.
I would love to do this so can anyone make any suggestions towards coming up with a good Legio Cybernetica Robot Force? Note that it is for small friendly games of possibly 1000pts and be incorporated into a terminator (and maybe purifier) heavy GK army.
