Hi guys,
I ma working on infantry heavy list for 3000 points.
Currently I am on 2852, so I would like to ask you what else would you add or change? I would like to see the tacticals, quads, missile havocs and tyrants to stay, because I already have them.
I am not sure what to do with lascannon havocs as they are grosly overpriced. Maybe it would be better to downgrade them to missiles, but I already have enough missiles from one havocs and tyrants.
I think I would not add any vehicles in order to follow the target saturation.

Here is the list:

Siegebreaker 95
catapracthii 35
combimelta 7
chainfist 10
phosphex greande 1x 10

Apothecary 45
augury scanner 5
artificer armour 10

Currently: 2852 pts.

It's a gunline, it shoots stuff. Other than the Siege Tyrants what in your list is comfortable operating outside of your deployment zone? I wouldn't want to lose the Lascannon Havocs as they'll be a massive help vs Spartans/Superheavies. Phosphex in batteries of 3 is overkill, much better to use some of the excess points to go for 2x2. Also apothecaries can be joined to Havocs now so consider adding them for increased survivability on a high priority target.

You've got the defense line, so might as well add the quad gun or an ammo dump to it. Also, edit all the individual points values out, just leave the total for each unit.

I like it, simple. Not sure if I would run the ccws on the tacs or not. That and the above mentioned reductions in artillery would net you close to enough if not enough points to have Kyr who benefits a gunline army a bit.

If not going that route having a primus medicae in with the Tyrants could help as well. I find my Tyrants are far bigger targets than my havoc squads. Most people would prefer 10 lascannons than 20 krak missiles or frag missile templates.

Ive had a lot of luck with this list

Cata armour siege breaker

3 x 10 man tac squads art armour and melta bombs on sarge

3x apothecary with art and augury scanner for the squads

3 x quad launcher with phosphex and shatter

10 Havocs with autocannons
10 Havocs with Lascannons
10 Tyrants

Perturabo
Row Hammer of Olynpia

That comes in a hundred or so under 3k so gives me wiggle room for extras or swaps.

Giving your Havoc Sergeants augury scanner can be useful.

In which book are the rules for bunkers etc. please?

Are they not in stronghold assault?

The rules for that should be in the 7th ed. book
