RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Simian - 28-01-2013
Both lists look good.
Im still a bit worried about all these flyers i keep seeing but im a bit happier now i've decided to go Lascannon on the contemptor.
Quick question, do you think 3 troop choices would be enough? or should i definitely be looking at 4? i currently have 5 in my 1750 but im wondering if i could reduce to 3 (one 10 man terminator squad and 2 7man tac squads) or 4 (2 5 man Terminators and 2 7 man tac squads) and then add in a second contemptor (with the Kheres assault cannons)
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - jaqenhgar - 28-01-2013
I would say 4 at a minimum, but if you maxed out your tacticals to 10 man thus unlocking combat squads you might get away with 3, feels a bit thin to me though.
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Nick1988 - 28-01-2013
I agree. It one or two scenarios 3 would be fine but especially for the scouring theres quite a few objectives so 4 minimum for me!

Found a few more grey knights for you Matt
ill bring them on Tuesday
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Simian - 28-01-2013

RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Sincilbanks - 28-01-2013
Had a good time guys, thanks for the games! Might be up for next Sunday as well!
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Nick1988 - 28-01-2013
I would be for sure!

Sunday suits me again. I shall ask for access to boards again this Thursday. This time we will check the closing times for the chippy and the shop.
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Embolden - 29-01-2013
I'd also but up for extra practice on Sunday.
My list at present:
Azrael (4+Inv save for him and squad, plus can choose from da traits)
Libby lvl2 (divination fun, twice)
Primaris psyker (biomancy fun)
Dreadnought 2 autocannons
Dreadnought 2 autocannons
2 5man tac squads with lascannon in each
50 blob 5 autocannons, 4 axes, 3 meltabombs
20 blob with 2 autocannons, commissar
2 naked platoon commands
4 hyperios missiles
Devastator squad 3 missiles, 1 lascannon
Aegis with quadgun
1750 on the nose
RE: Battlefield Birmingham 2013 - Simian - 29-01-2013
Thats a good amount of anti air, i keep meaning to try out the hyperios missile defence platforms in place of the contemptor (as 4 work out cheaper)
nice list, i think we'll be seeing more of azrael for a while with the 4+ invun being conferred to his unit (i assume he's with your blob?). I fully expect this to be FAQ'd to be units from within the DA codex at some point.
