Hey everyone,

So I've been fiddling around with the new Custodes codex and the Forge World rules to come up with a list that I think might be decently competitive, fun, NOT use the new "kata" system and be almost exclusively forge world models. For those who might not know, for now the forge-world custodes stuff doesn't have the keywords to use the new katas. Obviously, I can still refine this list a bit, but I'm liking it so far:

[Outrider]

[Shield host: Dread-Host]

HQ:

Allarus Captain (axe)

Troops:

x3 Sagittarum w/dagger
x4 Sagittarum w/dagger
x4 Sagittarum w/dagger

Elite:
x2 Contemptor Achillus Dread (default Lastrum storm bolters)

Fast Attack:
x3 Venatari Custodians w/dagger
x3 Venatari Custodians w/dagger
x3 Venatari Custodians w/dagger
x4 Agamatus w/Twin Las Pulser and dagger

=

1995pts


Strategy:
The troops and captain form the anvil, most likely with the achillus to one flank to maximize that flank. The Agamatus will definitely deep-strike in and just annihilate at least one target (16 bs2+ S8 AP-2 D3 shots should do the trick to most things). The others might deep strike in or might deploy normally, but their key is to take and hold objectives early as well as force the opponent to divide his fire. Hopefully, with Custodes durability and obsec on pretty much everyone we should be able to take and hold objectives while laying the hurt at least a little bit. I'm concernced that my dudes won't be killy enough, but I may be overthinking that part.

I would love some thoughts, maybe a few tweaks here or there!

Could work with the 8th dex, not good in the 9th.
All FW lists just suffer from the lack of a FAQ.
If Venetari get Auric weapons - yes. Like this, its just inferior and makes no use at all of the true power houses in 9th - HQs.
