First time building a list.

Im looking for some help building a fun and yet somewhat competitive Battle Demi company. The Codex is good but just getting a little stuck with the difference with a battledemi and gladius strike force.

So if anyone could help me with a list that would be great!!


Thank you!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845077.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845077.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845123.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845123.page GMT
I recommend 3 full Tac squads, and then 5 men Assault and Devs. Chaplain is a decent pick to lead the Assaults, you probably don’t have the points to trick out the captain with what he needs.

Pods or rhinos to taste, but all the Tacs need a ride.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845133.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/699873/8845133.page GMT Atm im up for any list!

This list is a little light on anti tank firepower. You have the Devs, the melta Tacs, and that’s about it. The lone ML can help out in a pinch, but after that you are at krack grenades. Using the spare points to hand out melta bombs is one solution. Cutting one tac squad in half to fit them into a TLLC razor is another. How much you need depends a lot on your local meta.

I like Assault Marines becasue they are iconic, and sometimes it’s nice to get some chopping in. But they can easily be subbed out for the other options the demi-co offers. Bikes are the mechanically superior choice. The other main job they provide is a place for the HQ to hang out. Where else is he going to go in a demi co?

Once you have a solid 1k demi-co, stepping up to a full Gladius is easy. I tend to build my lists in modular chunks. Mostly so I can pack one thing, and adjust what I put on the table based on the points my opponent wants to play. For example, just add a 250 point 10th company TF, and you have a 1,250 Gladius. You can use optional things like the dreadnought and command squad to help trim out lists.
