Just a thought experiment combo of lists I made while bored for a alt heresy idea I have. The basic premise is that Alpharius, Konrad, and Corax ambush Guilliman and Lorgar on Macragg and both sides are effectively hunting for primarchs and officers. Each side has 9000 points to use though I tried to keep each army on a side with about equal points but WB were not allowed to have more points than UM.
I'm a noob and this is purely a thematic thought experiment, but I was wondering what others opinions on it would be. Maybe there are better units or options I don't know about or something I picked is just bad, etc. I'm also curious if anyone has their own take on this idea and what lists they would make instead.

I did have another option for this list depending on what the best way to use Exodus is because I don't know. If Exodus is fine being alone I'd use this version, but if he's just too easy to kill alone I would remove the 155 pt Seeker squad and the Rapier, replacing them with a Nemesis bolter Recon squad with an Augury Scanner for 145 pts that Exodus can join and a Proteus Land Speeder Squadron with a grav gun an a hunter killer for 75 points so I have enough Fast Attack. With the former I still have 6 pts to spread around the loyalist armies but if I go with the latter I am pretty much set.

The plan for AL is for Alpharius, the Leviathans, and probably both Headhunters, all deep strike onto the enemy cracking open armor, snipe characters/Primarchs with dreads and precision melta while the rest of the AL shoot and snipe away the whole game.

• 3x Tartaros Chosen [45 Pts]: Thunder Hammer, Combi-Bolter
• 1x Tartaros w/Lightning Claws [40 Pts]: Pair of Lightning Claws

I originally made this list with Preysight on a handful of these units before I realized Konrad gives everyone but the tanks night vision so I took them off. I didn't look where I could get those points back and just gave the AL the Rapier so there might have been some better upgrades to give the NL.

The plan for the NL was for the Librarian and Praetor combo to go with the Night Raptors for massive kill potential with the pinning and fear. The Terror squads and the AL Nemesis' should give a lot of pinning. And I think the Pred squad should count as out numbering on pretty much everything for the NL rule. I thought Konrad might deep strike for more pinning he can tear through. Not sure how the rules/buffs the UM and WB get work with NL fear stuff though, I have a feeling that they are both just natural counters to NL.

Not quite sure on this one. RG is the army I know the least about here and I made this list a while ago so I don't remember some of the details. I remember that I thought the Breachers could do something cool with some of the rules the RG, Rite, or Corax give them but don't recall which ones or why. I assume Corax and some units were supposed to Deep Strike with the dread but I don't remember which units or where the characters were put.

The Idea behind the UM and WB lists were that Guilliman and Lorgar finally thought they knew where Konrad and Corax were hiding and could corner them to kill or recapture them. So they selected units designed for primarch hunting or surrounding them. However the location of Konrad and Corax was actually leaked by the AL so they could rescue Kon&Cor and assassinate as many primarchs/HVTs as possible in one fell swoop, ambushing the UM and WB en route to their own ambush, hence all of the transports for the UM and WB.

The plan for the UM was to corner the enemy primarchs with bodies, peppering them with Heavy Sup squads and despoilers while Guilliman, Suzerains, Moritat, and destroyers go in for the kill.

The plan for the WB was basically the same as the UM. Bodies would surround and cut off the enemy primarchs, shooting with Warpfire blasters/cannons while Lorgar, Gal Vorbak, Moritats, Ashen Circle, and maybe Mhara Gal get in close to overwhelm them. Not sure how the WB or UM strats wil change now that they find themselves being ambushed instead.


Well thats what I thought up at least. Not sure how effective any of these are but I don't think I got anything wrong at least besides loyalty things changed by the scenario.
What do yall think? Would you have done anything differently? Who do you think would win if this were actually played?
