Hello everyone!
I am more of a fluff enthousiast than a tournament player, but I'd like to bring my fluffy army to some tournaments while not looking like a joke.
I made a Mechanicus / Iron Hands / Questor Mechanicus soup list that I think is tasty both in terms of background as it is in term of crunch effectiveness.
Thanks for letting me know what you think about it! I have quite a lot of Primaris and Mechanicus units to improve it with. I just don't have Dragoons/Ballistarii (and don't want), nor electro priest or Sicarians.
For Space Marines, I play Primaris-only (which allows me to take 3 times the same troops in our local tournament meta).
About the strategy : Mechanicus is the gunline, Primaris are center objective contesters, while the Knight is a DISTRACTION CARNIFEX that I throw on the biggest enemy and hoping it will make a diversion long enough (it has LEDs lighting, so he should do his work well).
