Imperial Knight super-heavy detatchment

Pask will be using the commissar tank stratagem to give 9 leadership to all 5 INF squads... essentially moving with the INF up the board
Primaris marines will move up the board on opposite side, using rerolls from LT and CPT
Knight will be rushing and doing his knightly things...like throwing crushed vehicle hulks around

help me out guys!

I can only speak to the Imperial Guard detachment.

I've never seen Pask in a demolisher. Most people take him in a punisher since they get the most out of the 40 shots he puts out. I'd say the random shot weapons are best on catachans. Either way he will be target priority one for any big guns.

can't go wrong with plasmas in cadian infantry squads. Also, infantry squads, especially with gunline capability like cadians, are begging for a heavy weapon team. mortars are a solid cheap choice for defense or lascannons for some extra damage output.

Finally, given I'm not sold in Pask's chances of surviving long I highly recommend standards in those command squads and switching out the lascannon for a autocannon to make them a less juicy target.

Thanks!

I can disband the command squads and put the lascannons into 2 infantry squads and save some points in the process.

The reason why Pask is a demolisher, is simply because I needed more anti-tank in my army. My Knight Errant is a big chunk of that, but will be focused down quickly

bump 8 months later for further input, casual games seemed to go well, but trying to tweak this list while looking for opportunity to paint new models.

Put pask in a battle tank, executioner or punisher. Dont use multi melta sponsons. Either plasma, or heavy bolter. Flamers and meltas are bad. Use a primaris psyker instead of 2 astropath.
