Hi all! This is a WiP list for a coming Apoc. game I'm hosting. It looks like it will end up being 'nids vs. 30k (Alternate battles at Murder) and here's my rough list:

Spoiler:

Any C&C? I am debating dropping the blast chargers since I don't suppose they would see much use (though they could devastate 'gaunt squads?) Beyond that, Battlescribe is having issues, so those 2 solo tercio's will be household guard.

Breachers with an apothocary are pretty resiliant. A moritat with 2 volkite serpentas is murder on armor 5+ and can make hordes melt away. The Breachers can also take graviton guns which can be used to clog up movement lanes. Lastly, a recon squad with nuncio vox is good for spotting artillery.

Thanks! If I had the models, A breacher squad would be fun. with the Moritat I am considering it (swap out for the forge lord, probably) although I'm not all to worried about the breacher's access to graviton as for the same price as the other options, I can give a grav gun to every dread, AND the leviathan has the grav-flux bombard. pair that with the fact that Mortarion has infinite 12" phosphex, I'm not to worried about cloggin' movement. Addtionally, I don't know all what my allied are going to be bringing, so my goal with this list was to flood the fild with tanks and walkers. the cheap bodies from the auxilia were just an added bonus.

I like the walking graveyard you got there, against nids I dont think the HK missiles are really fit the bill. They can ID warriors, but besides that you will only do marginal damage against MCs and more importantly GCs in such apocalypse games against nids.

Same goes for the baneblade. It costs as much as your leman russ division but only kicks out about half the fire power, and aginst any sort of large MC it gets wrecked sideways. I doubt anyone will take any large swarm of small nids, effectively cutting the usefulnes of the blade short.

Expect heavy losses on your dreadnoughts, as they lose against MC, keep them back and hold a line with them.

Either way looks like a fun list, have a good time playing on the wonderful planet called Murder. Home of the Mega Arachnids. (lovely place, though the property values have recently fallen there.)
