Do custodes come five to a box? I forget.

Buy 1 box use 1 guy as the captain character and 1 guy as the banner character

buy a second box run 2x squads of 4 custodes

buy a box of bikes.

That ought to be prettttttttttty dang close to 1000 I'd think.

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"

"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"

"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"

"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!"

Custodes list revolves around two units right now: Terminators or Jetbikes. Most builds don't take both so you generally pick one and try that.

Terminator builds are usually Dread Host or Shadowkeepers. Aquilons are generally the better Terminators (they are Forge World).

Jetbike builds (Vertus Praetors is their actual name) are generally Solar Watch and armed with Hurricane Bolters.

When it comes to troops, Custodian Guard with swords and shields are the current meta choice, but Saggitarum Guard (Forge World) are strong contenders too.

They used to cheaper than salvo launchers and provide some much needed volume of fire for chaff-clearing. Now, salvo launchers are the same price, so I don't think it's such a no-brainer. They still have their chaff-mulching niche so I think they're still good, but salvo launchers are also very tempting, especially as they got a brutal new strat. Unfortunately I've tried salvo launchers once in 9th and the bikes died before they could fire them
