Hey there, so me and a few of my friends have started a Tale of 4 Gamers which will be kicking off now where will purchase, build and paint an 1850 army till the end of December. I have chosen Astra Militarum as I've always wanted to collect a fully Mechanised force.

We are splitting the Production into 3 months, we we will create and play with a 650, 1250, and 1850 force, starting from the end of October for 650. We'll be creating blogs if anyone is interested.

Back to the list, I am going for a bit of rule of cool whilst keeping it playable, let me know what you guys think, I can't change too much but am open to a bit here and there.

HQ:

Lord Commisar 100
The Emperor's Benediction, The Sword of Conquest, Carapace Armour

Troops:

Veteran Squad 175
Grenadiers, 3 Meltaguns, Chimera W/ML/HF, Smoke Launchers

Veteran Squad 190
Grenadiers, 3 Plasma Guns, Chimera W/ML/HF, Smoke Launchers

Heavy Support:

Wyvern 65

Wyvern 65

645/650

Cheers

Nice! I personally like a Tank Commander, usually in a Vanquisher. Might be something to consider for the larger point lists.

I would probably throw in a Missile Launcher with Flakk Missiles into each Veteran Squad if I could find the points. Fliers are everywhere at my local gaming store, but I don't know if that's an issue at yours.

Thanks for your comment I'll be adding a Pask Punisher in later points which should be awesome!

I thought about some Anti Air but this 650 will only really be for this tale of Gamers, whereas later lists will be usual, the Black Templar player is taking a, Stormraven in his 650 which I don't think I'll have anything to cope with in 650 in Zoom mode I mean I could swap the Wyverns for Hydra but not sure if it's worth it.

Cheers

I always try take the death mask OF THE COOLEST GUY TO EVER PUT ON CARDBOARD ARMOR!!! Er excuse me, I just really like the fluff as well as all the special rules it gives.
