Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - jaqenhgar - 10-01-2018 Just picked up my ticket for this, anyone else going? http://entoyment.co.uk/miniatures-and-wargames/event-tick/beachhead-events/battle-for-tlalacon-dropfleet-commander-beachhead-2018.html Just got to choose between Shaltari and Scourge now... RE: Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - LukeR - 10-01-2018 I'm planning on going. Didn't know whether it was worth going the night before as it's a fair way. EDIT - bought my ticket earlier. Now just have to decide which faction to use. RE: Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - Walters - 15-01-2018 Just signed up for this. Like Chris I have a choice of faction to make as I have come to like PHR. RE: Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - jjakaalbinoboy - 15-01-2018 I've also bought my ticket for this. Will likely take my UCM again as my Shaltari are neither ready, nor am I comfortable using them yet, still struggling. RE: Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - jaqenhgar - 19-01-2018 How about this list for your perusal (Might be a bit crazy as it has no gargoyles...) -------------------------------------- crazy scourge - 1248pts Scourge - 10 launch assets SR10 Vanguard battlegroup (205pts) 1 x Akuma - 205pts - H + Fleet Champion (40pts, 3AV) SR10 Line battlegroup (190pts) 2 x Yokai - 190pts - M SR8 Line battlegroup (234pts) 1 x Chimera - 105pts - M 3 x Djinn - 129pts - L SR10 Line battlegroup (280pts) 1 x Hydra - 140pts - M 1 x Hydra - 140pts - M SR3 Pathfinder battlegroup (126pts) 3 x Scylla - 126pts - L SR9 Pathfinder battlegroup (193pts) 2 x Nickar - 44pts - L 1 x Chimera - 105pts - M 2 x Nickar - 44pts - L ------------- dflist.com ------------- Plan is to win the air by playing aggresively and protecting the chimera's who hang back till T3/4. The scylla are in the low sr group to combat low sr enemy trying to get to one of my chimera's early. The Djinn will fly to atmo t 2 then kill something t3. Lots of shooty stuf (Akuma, Yokai, Scylla, Djinn) and 10 lovely scourge launch. However, may lose ground game...! What do you think?

Scylla for fire support. Strix group can active scan if needed. no chimera but 9 gargs. Charybdis to bombard a sector i don't try and contest that enemy has comitted to heavily. Hydra sits back and does it's magic. Could it work?! Could take a chimera instead of 3 gargs but pushes up the sr of the battlegroups.

Sorry Chris... PHR might be able to get away with running just two troopships, but I can't see this list winning the ground at all. Swap the two Yokai for 6 Gargoyles, and you'll be back on track RE: Battle for Tlalacon Feb 17th 2018 - scoundrel13 - 25-01-2018 (19-01-2018, 09:49 PM)jaqenhgar Wrote: or even more crazy!!! This is better but 2 Yokai and 2 Strix for 4/5 cruisers is mega fragile- you'll struggle to score any CLs.
