Basically this list is composed of mostly characters so you can only ever shoot at the closest model. The controlling player will try to make this be one of the six Culexus Assassins, so you are only ever shooting at the army on a 6+ and cannot cast smite. So it deploys with all six Culexus in front and everything else maneuvers, hides, and kills you. The Eversors are able to drop in and give some critical part of the opposing army a nasty surprise with a 1 turn shock assault, followed by a trio of explosions in your ranks when they finally go down. The combination of Guilliman, Draigo, and Celestine are going to give you fits, while the army’s remaining units are pounding you with their decent psychic tricks.

Overall, the key hallmark of the list is it’s heavy manipulation of the Character-targeting rule mechanic.

I don't even know what to say. This list is just so different from everything I've seen before. Like I've seen character spam but this is a whole new level.

I love it.

But I personally would try to fit some more anti-infantry in there. If you don't want to drop the character spam for Conscripts or whatever then maybe try to put another Eversor or two in there. My two cents.

Given that this exact list won a tourney in texas and he said he'd change out the retributors for another assassin id do that.

Although im sure the whole character spam shielding thing will be next on gws hitlist of faqs.

Yeah, i am always looking for some serious competitive lists. This table-braker is my atm favorite. But I'd go for more masses, or some Laserspam, too.

How does this deal with DS armies? Like you put all the evesor's up front, and then........ everything behind them gets eaten.

Hordes would have a field day with this, especially orks, they hit on 5's anyway, theres no way 20 models can overrun 150+ orks
