http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net devs in a bastion with an ammo dump (yes im sure its been done before but it was a lightbulb moment for me personally), I decided to stretch this idea as far as it could go and here is my result:

Firstly the IF devs in a bastion with ammo dump basically provide an AV14 stationary tank with unlimited hullpoints and 3 (pretty much) bs5 lascannon shots and a further bs9 lascannon shot, due to the rerolls of 1 combined with a signum. Being IF they are also tank hunters so reroll failed pens. The building then also gets to fire 9 bs2 heavy bolter shots at a different target. One of these bastions with a fist las dev squad totals a reasonable 240pts.
Taking an imperial strongpoint allows you to take 3 of these and an ADL (mine has comms for reasons which will be obvious).
These 3 bastions should provide plenty of AT. So what else is needed is AA and anti troop.
The anti troop is filled by 2 punishers, 1 being pask, giving 58 st5 PE shots, 29 at bs4, 20 of those rending.
The AA is filled with 2 skyhammer stormtalons. These can also hunt back field artillery and seriously punish troops.
The troops are a platoon squad, with a libby joining the blob for atsknf, these can help bubblewrap. And 2 bolter drill squads of scouts.
A battle tank deals with any pesky 3+ save marines or tanks the bastions somehow doesn't take down and adds to the immense amout of av14.
The final points are taken up with a rhino mounted assault squad for counter assaults with 2 flamers. This hides behind a bastion until needed.
The 35 troops all have a 2+ cover save behind the adl when gtg.

So here is the list:

Imperial fists
Librarian
Psychic shriek

5 scouts with bolters

Scary amount of durable firepower? Originally I was worried about MCs but when I tought about it, the sheer weight of firepower from pasks squadron, combined with the talons and 12 ridiculously accurate lascannon shot should lay waste to them too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802513.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802513.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802574.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802574.page GMT
Also don't be so eager to take psychic shriek, its a good power but roll of invisibility first.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802764.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802764.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802770.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6802770.page GMT AV 14's and 2 flyers at 2k. Especially when 3 of those av14s can't even be glanced out.
And when it comes to troops - 27 heavy bolter shots from the bastions, 58 PE st5 shots from pasks squadron, 8 tl st6 and 6 st7 bs5 shots from the talons, 4 flamers, a leman russ ordinance blast, and finally upto 56 lasgun and 26 bolter shots. It's not that bad if the opponent takes lots of troops.

Yeh good idea - I will roll for invis or pupet master first. Good call!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803255.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803255.page GMT HB turrets (and even then the ones your in LOS to are BS2). The punishers are range 24", the las guns are range 24", the flamers are 8" templates, leman russ is great, bolters are 24". The only anti infantry you have that is consistent is the russ and storm talons. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803402.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803402.page GMT What I could do is drop the leman russ and assault squad, along with a flamer on the pcs. Then invest in a deathstrike, hide it behind a bastion, forcing the opponent to come to me and into 24" range. If he sits back instead then a mega ton of his infantry can just dissapear in 1 shot. With the remaining points I would get a dual mm deepstriking landspeeder to help the lascannons with any av14 targets.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803420.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803420.page GMT ML is OK, but mantacore is better IMO, more shots= more wounds= more reason to attack it.

Also i'm not trying to put this list down, it looks solid but I think at 2k if you have a hard meta it might not last vs a WAAC list (and not the death stars though, they will give you a hard time).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803567.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6803567.page GMT So if I drop the assault squad + rhino, the battle tank and the platoon and instead get a maticore, another skyhammer stormtalon and a vet squad with autocannon and 3 snipers it begins to look scarier.
The only problem then would be 20 troops. Although I could keep the scouys in reserve and use the comms to keep them off the board for as long as possible for outflanking objective grabs. Or just hide them behind bastions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6806123.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593819/6806123.page GMT
