Retributor x8 w/ Multimelta, 2x Heavy flamer, 1x Heavy Bolter
Repressor Transport ( im estimating this as 1) worth it and 2) 100 points
Cannoness and hospitaler rides with Retributors in the Repressor. Rhino sisters objective grab, go after
MEQ or above. Seraphim most likely start game on board to objective grab or roast some more
MEQ. Ideally Dominions use first AOF to shoot twice or disenbark preemtively to then move again and get closer to prime target. The Twin Multimelta Immolator is a big point investment though, thinking about downgrading it to the Immolator version as Ive read good things about it ( autohit, assault weapon, also cheapter in points). The sisters basically drive up and roast a flank, as they do
Guard hold the middle, conscripts bubble wrap, absorb charge, and/or cover space to keep deep strikers away. Ratlings try to kill characters, keep deep strikers away. Sentinel was a tax so I kept it cheap. I figured to keep my C. Commander around the Command squad ( old habit), ordering the Veterans. L. Commisar babysits them. Regular commisar babysits conscripts/ regular infatry who bubble wrap Leman Russ. Prolly cant cover them all in 6 inch bubble, but maybe with some daisy chaining. Platoon commander runs with infantry to
FRFSRF conscripts/ infantry. The Astropath i just threw in to get some deny the witch bubble for the Guard, and throw up that +1 save spell for my leman russ, basilisk, or exorcist.
Known Weaknesses:
- If the Commisars get killed, the guard are going to flop, so ideally they ( HEROICALLY) hide behind the leman Russ/ Terrain).
- Almost no
CC. There are some power swords thrown in there, and the Cannoness can do decently, but not amazing. Just have to weather the storm and DAKKADAKKA-BARBECUE
Strength:
Brigade, so 12 Command Points
Model Count somewhat high so objective holding
What do you think?
EDIT: Forgot Veteran Squads, doh!
