So the Night Scythes finally came out (and the Doom Scythes), so I figured I could put a list together. I've never done an 1850 list, though it actually worked out very well. Like the Monstercrons list, this has it's own shtick, that being moving fast and hopefully not blowing up.


--Unit 1 - 425 points
Overlord w/Phaeon, Sempiternal Weave, and a Res Orb
+10 Gauss Immortals
+Night Scythe

--Unit 2 - 335 points
10 Tesla Immortals
+Lord w/ Res Orb
+Night Scythe

--Unit 3 - 425 points
Overlord w/ Phaeron, Res Orb, and Sempiternal Weave
+10 Gauss Immortal
+Night Scythe

--Unit 4 - 220 points
4 Destroyers w/ 3 Heavy

--Doom Scythe - 175

--Doom Scythe - 175

--Annihilation Barge - 90

1845. It's a shame I don't have anywhere to put those 5 points (well, anywhere that makes sense, I could always buy a Gauntlet of Fire for the lulz). What do you think? I think my opponent with have a moment of "whaaaat" when I set 5 fliers on the table.

Not nearly the "Whaa?" as if you put down 9-10 flyers like a full blown Scythespam list. The problem with the list you have is it's pretty easy to shoot down the three AV11 troop carriers, putting all your scoring troops and a good amount of your firepower into reserve, then being forced to footslog across the board again.

That's true. Then again, if he's shooting down the troop carriers, he's probably giving my Doom Scythes a chance to fudge up some of his units.

Ive been playing 9 flyer spam for awhile. They can really eat someones lunch. Psyfelmen dreds are the stuff of your nightmares though.
