I must say this is my best painted army to this date.

HQ. Lib codi. with termie armor, Stormbolter,stubborn and fear of Dark. 140 pts

Troop1 has 5 men with 2 assaultcannons and one chainfist. 270pts.

Troop 2-4 have the same load out. 810 points

Heavy1 has 5 men with 2 Cyclone lauchers 280 points

Total 1500 on the dot

I only have termies for this army and I am wondering how this would fare. The nice thing is that it is an easy army to transport.

Special Thanks to Teufelskerl for providing most of the termies.

Why the HS choice? You could just have another assault cannon squad...

He could make the HS choice a troop choice. There's no restriction on cyclones being REQUIRED to be on HS terminators.

Besides... he probably ascribes to the same notion I have about my deathwing. Yes, the *donkey*cannon is better now than a lascannon... but the cyclone STILL has better range. And for a low mobility army like the deathwing... that extra range might just come in handy from time to time, especially as his whole army is sloggin' it.

Well, I know from experience, (namely getting my but kicked) that Deathwing works but I would reccomend dropping one of the donkey cannon squads for another cyclone squad.

This will allow you to have a bit more control and will let you spread the two to your corners so you can hit everything on the board with at least one of the two squads, and will deal with some of these damned annoying Armored Chaos, I have been seeing around my game store. . . (3 super defilers, a flying demon prince, + filler) its a very effective list because of how hard it is to actually kill the super defilers. . . (by super defilers, I mean parasitic infestation and Demonic possession, AV 13, it ignores stunning, or shaken results and can repair itself, try killing one sometime its ridiculous. . . )

I have a camera but I don't know how to load pictures over the internet ...yet.
Its one of my goals in a couple months.

Maybe someone from this forums can PM me some hints.
My camera is a Coolpix 5600 made by Nikon.

When I do figure it out I will post in modeling.

Any help is wonderful to have.

I'd turn one of the troop squads into a command squad for the lib, and use the saved points to give the cyclone squad tank hunter (also making them a troops choice), maybe up the librarian to an Epistolary--if only for the extra wound.

Other than that, I think it's pretty good. 1500 can be hard for deathwing, but that's about right.

Guinness: for those who are men of the cloth and football fans, but not necessarily in that order.

I think the lesson here is the best way to enjoy GW's games is to not use any of their rules.--Crimson Devil

I agree with Syr. As is, the librarian can't deep strike with some meat to protect him.
