So here is some fluffy blather, skip down if you're not interested. The SoM are a splinter of the Iron Hands Chapter and as such use their Tactics, hence the Dreads and the Forge Master. Since each Company in Clan Mageara operates pretty much independently of one another, with only small Support and Scout Auxiliaries I intend for this list to be not only Fluff-Adherent but somewhat hard to beat as well. I'm not talking tournament champion or anything though!
What I have here is a 1500 point base for my 1st Company and what I would like is some additions to the list to help round it out and shore up some weaknesses.
ANyways...
Chapter Master
Power Axe
Arti Armour
Shield Eternal
Honor Guard
4 models + Champ
Powerweapons (haven't really decided what I should go for yet, maybe a mix?)
Bolters, n pistols
>> Razorback
DT
Master of the Forge (Just to get the extra Dread and have a 2 wound Techmarine!
)
2x 10 Man Tactical Squads
Combiweapons and chainswords on Sarges
2x Venerable Dreadnoughts
One with P. Fist and
TL Las
One with dual
TL Auto Cannons (mwuhahahaha)
2x Dreadnoughts in Drop Pods, w/ Multi-Meltas and P. Fists
1x Triple Las Predator
And that brings me to 1500 points even and makes for a pretty playable casual list I'd say. Plenty of AV12 walking around requiring at least some planning to deal with, nice cheap scoring units, a really solid assault unit that will take a ton of shooting to kill and the reliability of Drop Pods to bring the rest of my Dreads in. Or at least so it seems to me. I mean I've done some playtesting and I'm pretty darn sold on the
CM and Honor Guard combo, especially if you throw the
MOTF in there after they
DE from the Razorback. He gets a ton of attacks and since he's packin Arti Armour like the rest of em he's pretty hard to kill too. I think he even comes with some form of invul as well.
Now since this is supposed to be the "Veteran" Company in Clan Mageara I should probably put some Termies in here too, but what's the best way to use them in this list?
