Hi there, I already have a Fortress of Redemption but want to maximise the return on that investment by making at least one more army that can benefit from it. Therefore I plan to magnetise up my Fortress and have two 'setups', the normal Imperial one which goes with my IG and a new chaotic one to go with a 'Dark Mechanicus' army.

Fluffwise, my Dark Mechanicus (From the world of Dreadforge) send out task forces to seize Imperial Fortresses before looting their contents and taking any survivors as prisoners (souls for the forges etc.). Then they would leave a small garrison to capitalise on the inevitable Imperial retaliation - potentially capturing more prisoners and causing the Imperium to lose more resources/assets/manpower taking it back (especially since it would be booby trapped).

--------------------------------------------

Fortress -
Krakstorm/Fragstorm, Void Shields on every building apart from the walkway, searchlight on the tower.

Skitarri Maniple -
Naked Vanguard (manning the missile bunker)
Maxed Vanguard w/ Refractor field
4 Rangers w/ 2x Transuranic Arquebuses and an Omnispex (sit on top of the tower and snipe)

Allied Admech -
Dominus w/ Conversion Field (would go with the Breachers)
Naked Breachers
Kastellan Maniple Datasmith w/ Conversion Field + Alpha Dominus, 2x Twinlinked Phosphor Blasters + 2x Combustors.

Inquisition -
Malleus Inquisitor w/ Power armour, Daemonblade, Bolt Pistol, 2x Servo Skulls. (Would man the Icarus Lascannon)
Henchmen (10 Daemonhosts).

Officio Assasinorum -
Eversor Assassin.

---------------------------------------------

Tactics -
Kastellans, Maxed Vanguard, Breachers, Daemonhosts and Eversor push forward and pile on the pressure.
Inquisitor and naked Vanguard fire the Fortress weapons and if need be sally forth and defend the fortress.
Ranger squad provides long range fire support and pressure from the tower.
