http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Hi,

I'm getting back into 40K after a very long hiatus (3rd ed.) This go around, I've decided to return as an IG DKoK assualt army using the IA12 rules. I thought a 1000 pt. Mech army might be a good starting point. Can you provide feedback on my list? I would like to know if this list would be competitive and fun to play before I start investing in FW resin.

HQ

CCS (225 pts.)
>1x Melta
>1x PG
>Militant-Techpriest
>Chimera w/ Autocannon

Troops

10x Grenadiers (225 pts.)
>2x Melta
>1x HF
>Chimera w/ Autocannon

10x Grenadiers (225 pts.)
>2x Melta
>1x HF
>Chimera w/ Autocannon

Heavy Support

LR Vanquisher (170 pts.)
>Lascannon

Avenger Strike Fighter (150 pts.)

Total: 1000 pts.


General strategy:

- Quickly advance grenadier-chimera squads to capture objectives.

- CCS-chimera will stay close to the LR vanquisher so the militant-techpriest can bestow Machine Bane (+1 AP) upon the vanquisher cannon, repair HP if needed, protect from deepstrikes/assaults, and in general assist taking out AV13+ targets.

- The avenger strike fighter will arrive via reserves/deepstrike to take out enemy aircraft, light-transports, and 3+ infantry; basically, where ever it is needed most.

*Alternatively, I could swap the avenger strike fighter for a LRBT, LR exterminator, or thunderer siege tank.



Concerns:

- Relatively few scoring units or units in general.

- May not adequatley deal with swarm armies.


Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

I generally like making use of the unique DKOK units so 4 x thudd guns throwing out 16 templates a turn with -1 to pinning tests can hold the enemy back longer for you to get on the objectives or help face hordes. I also love my deathriders - models and rules alike

Be aware that DKOK resin crack is more addictable than heroin - good luck on joining the Korps]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563565/6258508.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563565/6258508.page GMT IA12 rules seem fun and unique.

I totally agree with you. DKoK has some uniquely awesome units! I can totally see myself getting Thudd guns and Deathriders. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563565/6261265.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563565/6261265.page GMT
