Yeah I guess they could use some Primaris...

Overall it looks pretty good with the limited options Primaris have. Might look at some of the new Reivers and maybe a Primaris Librarian once they come out.

You could switch the basic captain for two Lieutenants. Maybe with Power Swords to deter flankers on your fire support?

Hey KaoxVeed,

Thanks for the feedback.

The main reasoning for the captain was to ensure re-rolls on any supercharges shots from the Hellblasters.

I'm testing a 1.5k version of the list tomorrow so will have an update then.

After playing my first game with my Primaris marines I was needless to say very underwhelmed.

I lost the game to 10 v 4 VP's by turn 4. A lot of rolls didn't go my way, but even then... Quantum Shielding is amazing, and Re'an's are a bitch if your a shooting army as you wont compete with Crons durability.

I was playing a 1,500 Maelstrom Deadlock mission Vs Necrons.

As such I've made a few tweaks to my list:

The Hellblasters will sit in a bubble with the Captain, Lieutenant, Apothecary and Ancient. Always overcharging and targeting armour, or multiple wound models.

With BS 3+ re-rolling ones, and re-rolling ones to wound at strength 8 2 damage they can dish out pain. If any of them do stuff it, they ancient lets them shoot anyway on a 4+, likewise the apothecary could bring them back on a 4+, or heal a wound.

The Intercessor's will be in the same bubble but in front of the hell blasters to deter charges.

Everything else is fairly self-explanatory.

The Crusader squad is there to make up for the lack of combat orientated units within Primaris. That and an Emperuh's champ is great for killing characters.

Thanks,

Yet more tweaks following another pasting.

Felt like I was missing enough spread fire power all around, as well as a form of deep striking units to deal with units sat back on an enemy deploy line or sneaky objectives. I've also totally ditched sniper scouts - not strong enough in a 5 man unit! I also really want to test out the Rievers!
