Hi all, I'm working on my next army project, the Night Lords. I'm going fluffy in the senses of:
A. No Deamons, at all.
B. Lot's of Raptors (so no bikes and no Helturkey)
But I will not leave out Marks since I consider it to be too much of a setback to leave them out.
HQ:
Huron Blackheart: 160p
Elites:
Terminators x4 w/MoK, VotLW, four combiweapons (3plasma one melta?), a chainfist and LC on the champion w/Dedicated land raider w/ Dirge Caster, 429p
OR Terminators x10w/MoK, VotLW, 8 combiweapons (again a combo of plasma and melta?), 2 heavy flamers, LC on the Champ, IoW, 464p
Troops:
10x Chaos Space Marines w/ VotLW, 2 meltas, Power Sword, Rhino, 220p
10x Chaos Space Marines w/ VotLW, 2 flamers, Power Sword, Rhino, 210p
10x Chaos Space Marines w/ VotLW, 2 flamers, Power Sword, Rhino, 210p (might drop this one down in size to 9, drop the flamer and add a mark to give Huron a ride if I go with 10 Termies instead of 4.)
Fast Attack:
5 Raptors w/2 meltas 115p
10 Raptors w/MoK, VotLW, 2 flamers, PW, Melta bombs 230p
10 Raptors w/MoK, VotLW, 2 flamers, PW, Melta bombs, 230p
Heavy support:
5 Havocs w/ 4 autocannons, 115p
Huron will be converted as a Night Lord and is there to ensure his Warlord Trait (plus, he's a baws). I think infiltrate is a key Night Lords thing.
So here's the plan, If I go first I infiltrate the melta raptors into melta range and blows something up, then I infiltrate as many of the other two Raptor squads as possible into cover/los blocking terrain for a 2nd turn charge. If I go for 10 Terminators I rush them up front with infiltrate in my opponents face turn one (as my first priority infiltrator) and deep strike the melta raptors. I will also reserve one flamer csm squad to take the home base objective.
If I take the 4 Termies in a LR I will put Huron in there (hence only four) and watch them bring the pain. Though I am a little unsure on what PW's to equip my 10 Termies with (again, if I take them). I'm thinking of a healthy mix between mauls and axes.
This leaves me roughly 90 points to work with, any suggestion for those?
Thoughts?
