Ok, so I've started on an Imperial Fists 30k army, and here's what I've got so far... I love the aesthetic of lots of legionnaires trudging across the field, bolters barking death while heavy artillery rains down... thoughts?

2500 points

HQ
Alexis Polux *he give himself deepstrike and joins the Terminators
Damocles Command Rhino

Elites
Apothecary Detachment (2) - both apothecaries have artificer armor, augury scanner
Terminator Squad (5) - tartaros pattern, power fist x3, chainfist x2, vigil pattern storm shield x5, teleport assault

Troops
Legion Tactical Squad (20) - vox, vexilla, extra cc weapons, sgt. w/artificer armor, bolter, power fist
Legion Tactical Squad (20) - vox, vexilla, extra cc weapons, sgt. w/artificer armor, bolter, power fist

Heavy
Legion Whirlwind Scorpius
Legion Whirlwind Scorpius
Leviathan Siege Dread - pod, drill, cyclonic melta, armoured ceramite, flamers x2

LoW
Fellblade - quad lascannons, free heavy bolter, marine crew, armoured ceremite


All of the barrage should pair well with the foot-slogging troops, and the command rhino can also take advantage of that, plus helps me with my deep striking termies as either a counter charge unit, or getting up the field within 24" of the damocles.

Any feedback is much appreciated... I've got a bunch of this stuff anyway that I'll be painting up just because I like the units, but any further ideas I'd be happy to hear!

Its a cool list, quite balanced. Fellblade is not my favourite marine superheavy, I prefer the Glaive, anyways Fellblade does the job

Overall good list but a few observations.

I think you need som AA in there. If you come against a fire raptor it will pick your army apart. Even a xiphon has the potential to kill ypur fellblade and cripple you.

Also you seem to by putting nearly all your AT in the LOW which is no push over but it makes it a really obvious main target.

You desperately need some AP2 dakka. A 10 man squad of cc terminators will walk through those tac squads, as would specialist CC squads with a 2+ like templars. You need to be able to thin them out.


Warhammer 40,000 calls on a lot from you, the player. Your responsibility isn’t just to follow the rules, it’s also to add your own ideas, drama and creativity to the game. Much of the appeal of this game lies in the freedom and open-endedness that this allows; it is in this spirit that the rules have been written.

Unfortunately, Tartaros can't use Storm Shields. Just something to consider.
