Hey, Dakka, the story behind this list is that it's been an obsession of mine for about 2 years, ever since I got back into the hobby and since I learned a Warband list was a thing. I own this entire list so far, my acolytes are all wysiwyg SoB models, (I'm super OCD about WYSIWYG) I'm planning on adding a vindicare with a Quad Gun ADL for AA support, but that's it, and it will be the core. I'm thinking about adding eldar allies at some point, but check this out

My plan is this: Coteaz with Prescience goes upfield with the MM units in the Chimeras, the other inquisitor hangs at the back with the plasma cannon guys, doing fire support and defending the back field. The Psykers go on either end of the table, maybe up to two feet from either edge and harass everything, the extra guy is just in case they perils, the whole unit doesn't die. That's my entire vision for this army, I've been obsesses with it forever.

My questions: first, should I add a unit of Death Cult assassins and crusaders for at least 1 assault unit? Or do another unit of Psykers, just because "f-you, that's why!" ? Also, the Chimeras, should I put heavy flamers in on them? 2 HF? The multi laser seems useless. I haven't assembled them yet, but I want everything WSYWYG.

I plan on this being the core of my army, but I'm considering adding some Psyflemen dreads, and also getting an eldar wraith star ally, or maybe IG flier allies, but any comments are welcome.

I have almost the obsession with a warband army. I so very badly want to take the death cult assassins and crusaders, my hang up is they come equipped with swords that are ap3. This isnt bad but its not as good as i would like it to be, seems like more and more +2 are out there so I want to equip them with axes but that slows them way down.

Also I would take dread knights over naughts.

Just my thoughts

I'm planning on getting the ADL and vindicar, next payday, and that army will be done. Going to be my core, and get heavy support or whatever around it. I would love a dread knight, but I hate the model so much

The list isn't legal. Unless I missed something you have an entire list of Elite Choice and no troops.

Coteaz makes Warbands troops.

Coteaz makes all warband troops

You have one major issue i think.
Who will make sure the 3rd servitor unit can fire?
You have 50% chance they cant do anything witout an inquisitor.
You have 3 such teams and only 2 inquisitors.

Apart from that, the list souds fun

That occurred to me, don't know what else I can do, besides run double FoC, eventually.

I know this tread is a bit old but if your going to run the assasians and Crusaders.... why not put the power axes on the crusaders. That way you get your high initiative attacks and then your low.
