Age Of Darkness Detachment: 3500 Points

HQ:
Legion centurion: Master of Signal
Legion Preator: Boarding Shield, Digital Lasers, Melta Bombs, Paragon Blade

Lord Of War:
Guilliman: Logos Lectora ROW
Troops:
Invictarus Suizerain Squad: 10 Men
Breacher Siege Squad: 20 men, 20 powerswords, meltabombs on sarg, vexilla.
Breacher Siege Squad: Same, artificer on sarg
Breacher Siege Squad: Same artificer on sarg

Elites:
Legion apothecary squad: 3 apothecaries, all with Artificer armour

Contemptor Talon: 2 contemptors with Kheres and DCCW w/ meltagun

Legion Quad launcher: 2 rapiers w/ shatter shells

Heavy Support:
Leviathan Dreadnought: Armoured Ceramite, Leviathan Seige Drill.

Form columns of men, give them counter attack with the Logos Lectora, enjoy having 60 models with 2 attacks at AP3 , and have my elite units (suizerains, guilliman, and dreadnoughts) march down the center to fight off blobs of enemies.

Strong against other mass power armour lists due to sheer armount of ap3 or better, decent against vehicles because of prevalence of melta bombs, and they dont really care if they get charge or charge themselves. I guess grant interceptor or tank hunter to the breachers depending on the army I'm facing, I suppose I am kinda screwed if I come up against a large amount of superheavies/ heavy armour because melta can only do some much.

I love it although i would say maybe find some room in points to get a couple squads of snipers to take advantage of interlocking tactics. And maybe drop the praetor as your army doesnt really need him.
Other than that i think it is an awesome fluffy army that should do well even when its in the 3500pts bracket.

I think the only thing to worry about a bit is that its basically a moving gunline but without a whole lot of stopping power in its range fire.

You're going to worry if facing a terminator force, or massed AP3 - whilst thudd guns are a joke against reinforced armour, phosphex canister is a very sick joke - equally, against the Imperial Army you don't need to worry about the frag shell with your name on it so much as the earthshaker round marked "To Whom It May Concern"....

It should be beautiful to see, though.

Now you just need a Twisted Flesh/Cult Horde Militia force or Bezerker-heavy World Eaters to play Celts & Romans in spaaaaace.....

Even with the quad launchers, you're heavily lacking in the AT department. 1 tank with a large blast AP: 3 or better will do a massive amount of damage points wise, ESPECIALLY at 3,500 points, where you're gonna start seeing more and more heavy artillery.

The other problem I see is if your advancing in columns in higher point games anything using large scale Volkite weapons will simply fire at the back of the column engulfing everything and then things will go very very sideways. So basically if you run into a Legion Glaive I can assume it will definitely give you a head ache.

Points drops for breachers might let you fit a bit more into the list. Also, consider switching out the praetor for a cheaper Consul choice (Legion Champion comes to mind, and would certainly fit the theme.)

Only a points drop if they're 10 man.

20 man squads actually for 25 points more expensive!
