So here's my go at some semblance of a 6th Ed. Deathwing list which I know I can do with the models I have on hand:

Belial
(really leaning toward TH/SS for survivability and hitting power, yes I know fleshbane is 2+ against models with a T value, but the TH will crack fools with T4 into the stoneage, plus concussive for a drawn out challenge, plus 3++ over 4++)

10 Deathwing Terminators
All TH/SS
2x Cyclone Missile Launchers

5 Deathwing Terminators
SB/PF
Cyclone Missile Launcher

5 Deathwing Terminators
SB/PH
Cyclone Missile Launcher

5 Deathwing Terminators
SB/PH
Cyclone Missile Launcher


Pure West.


Current total is 1465 so I can cram some chain fists in there, or drop the 3 cyclones (the 2 off of the TH/SS Squad and replace one of the others with a Plasma Cannon, or an HF and 2 chain fists) and throw a Terminator Librarian in there.

Basic idea is to put Belial with the 10 TH/SS Terminators, deep strike them T1 and run them in a high-threat position, then grit my teeth through my opponent's turn. I can then keep 1 more unit in reserve (rounding up for 50% units on the field rule) and bring them in with Belial's teleport homer to double up the threat/scoring.





C&C welcome I really have no experience with a DW list

Hi. New to the game so apologies if the answer to my question is an obvious one. Concerning your 10 man terminator squad... I'm wondering if you meant that all 10 have TH/SS including the two CML models. I was hoping to do the same as I assembled my squad, but thought you couldn't have any other weapons besides a TH/SS combo according to the new codex. Thanks in advance.

Nope, you can take cml and th/ss just like in the old dex.
