RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 28-05-2015 Due to the sudden realisation that I can't really afford to buy much before Cally.... I've had to rethink my list based on buying very little that I don't already have. This means my list isn't going to be all that competitive. Cheapo list: HQ1: Autarch - Fusion Gun, Scorpion Chainsword HQ2: Farseer - Singing Spear Troop1: 5 Dire Avengers Troop2: 5 Dire Avengers Troop3: 10 Guardian Defenders - Heavy Weapon Platform with Shuriken Cannon (Transport1) Troop4: 10 Guardian Defenders - Heavy Weapon Platform with Shuriken Cannon (Transport2) Elite1: 6 Fire Dragons with Exarch with Firepike (Transport3) Elite2: 5 Howling Banshees (Transport4) Fast1: Crimson Hunter Exarch Fast2: Hornet - 2x Pulse Lasers Fast3: 3 Vypers - 2x Shuriken Cannons Heavy1: Falcon – Scatter Laser Heavy2: Falcon – Scatter Laser Transport1: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Transport2: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Transport3: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Bight Lance Transport4: Wave Serpent – Twin Linked Scatter Laser Total: [1850] Then I'd only need buy Autarch and Fire Dragons? £35? RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jaqenhgar - 29-05-2015 Looks like a pretty good list to me JJ, you going to try it in our game on Tues? Will bring my necron list I'm thinking of taking, will be a good test against shooty Eldar. RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 30-05-2015 I really like the list JJ RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 30-05-2015 Had a game with the list yesterday against Will's Tyranids and didn't do too badly, the Fire Dragons (who I've now given a Firepike Exarch) made short work of a Flyrant when they sat on a Skyfire objective. Also the plane and Hornet both performed well for their points. I'll be using this list Tuesday Chris (proxies for Fire Dragons though). RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - will - 30-05-2015 From my side of the board it looked like a good list JJ. Lots of mobility firepower and most of it able to hide behind AV12. I just think you need to practice to get the most out of things like the bansiees. For those interested my list has now morphed into the bellow. After reading the changes in the missions I decided I needed some firepower to go with my crushing numbers. Seemed to work well VS JJ's list and was fun to play with. Might drop the termagaunts devourers for a fourth warrior for extra synapse protection(JJ killed all my synapse in this list on turn four ) +++ Fully tourney list (1847pts) +++ ++ Tyranids: Codex (2014) (Combined Arms Detachment) (1305pts) ++ + HQ (240pts) + Hive Tyrant (240pts) [Electroshock Grubs, Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms, Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms, Wings] + Elites (345pts) + Lictor Brood (150pts) [3x Lictor] Venomthrope Brood (45pts) [Venomthrope] Zoanthrope Brood (150pts) [3x Zoanthrope] + Troops (280pts) + Genestealer Brood (70pts) [5x Genestealer] Genestealer Brood (70pts) [5x Genestealer] Genestealer Brood (70pts) [5x Genestealer] Genestealer Brood (70pts) [5x Genestealer] + Heavy Support (440pts) + Carnifex Brood (150pts) ··Carnifex [Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms, Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms] Carnifex Brood (150pts) ··Carnifex [Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms, Twin-linked Devourer with Brainleech Worms] Mawloc (140pts) ++ Tyranids: Codex (2014) (Formation Detachment) (542pts) ++ + Formation (542pts) + Endless Swarm (542pts) ··Hormagaunt Brood [20x Hormagaunt] ··Hormagaunt Brood [15x Hormagaunt] ··Hormagaunt Brood [15x Hormagaunt] ··Termagant Brood [15x Fleshborer Termagant] ··Termagant Brood [15x Fleshborer Termagant] ··Termagant Brood [9x Fleshborer Termagant, Spinefist Termagant] ····4x Devourer Termagant [4x Devourer] ··Tyranid Warrior Brood [Venom Cannon] ····Tyranid Warrior [Devourer, Scything Talons] ····Tyranid Warrior [Devourer, Scything Talons] ····Tyranid Warrior [Devourer, Scything Talons] Created with BattleScribe RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 30-05-2015 Nasty list Will, it will be impressive to see on the table RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jjakaalbinoboy - 01-06-2015 (30-05-2015, 09:58 PM)Embolden Wrote: Nasty list Will, it will be impressive to see on the table Bloody scary more like..... RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - Embolden - 01-06-2015 Very true JJ anything with 100+ models is intimidating! I need help with these 2 lists, cannot decide between the two: List1: Farseer - Skyrunner, Spiritstone - 130 Autarch - Swooping Hawk Wings, Fusion Gun, Scorpions Chainsword - 98 5 Windriders - 5 Scatter Lasers - 135 5 Windriders - 5 Scatter Lasers - 135 4 Windriders - 4 Scatter Lasers - 108 4 Windriders - 4 Scatter Lasers - 108 3 Windriders - 3 Scatter Lasers - 81 2 D-Cannons - 110 3 War Walkers - 6 Scatter Lasers - 180 Wraithknight - 2 Heavy Wraithcannons, 2 Scatter Lasers - 325 Aspect Host: (+1 BS) 7 Warp Spiders - Exarch - 143 6 Swooping Hawks - Exarch, Hawks Talon - 116 5 Dark Reapers - Exarch, 5 Starshot Missiles - 180 Total: 1849pts Pro's Has 130 str6 shots and 5 Obsec Jetbike units, plus D-Cannon defence. Con's Only 3 WC so likely to only guide/prescience two units max, more likely 1 as 1 power is likely to be denied. List2: Farseer - Skyrunner, Spiritstone - 130 3 Windriders - 3 Scatter Lasers - 81 3 Windriders - 3 Scatter Lasers - 81 3 Windriders - 3 Scatter Lasers - 81 Warlock - Skyrunner - 50 2 Vypers - 4 Shuriken Cannons - 100 Autarch - Swooping Hawk Wings, Fusion Gun - 95 Wraithknight - 2 Heavy Wraithcannons, 2 Scatter Lasers - 325 Aspect Host: (+1 BS) 7 Warp Spiders - Exarch - 143 6 Swooping Hawks - Exarch, Hawks Talon - 116 5 Dark Reapers - Exarch, 5 Starshot Missiles - 180 Farseer - Skyrunner - 115 5 Windriders - 5 Scatter Lasers - 135 5 Windriders - 5 Scatter Lasers - 135 3 Windriders - 3 Scatter Lasers - 81 Total: 1849pts Pro's 122 Str6 shots, Aspect Host gets auto 6" battle focus, shred on Shuriken Cannons, 6 units of Jetbikes. 7 WC so can easily cast 3 powers but have a good chance for 4 powers. Con's Only 3 Obsec units, less shots than list 1. I cannot pick between them.. what are your thoughts? RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - will - 03-06-2015 Haha I'm just hoping 100+ models will stop me getting tabled. I think I prefer the first list Rob. More objective secured will probably be of more use, as the games are maelstrom and eternal war at the same time. Also is the second list legal for the caledonian? you've got a windrider host, aspect host and a CAD (I think ) and we are restricted to two detachments and no detatchments inside detachments. Unless they've updated the rules pack? RE: Caledonian Revolutions 2015 - jaqenhgar - 03-06-2015 Yeah I like the first list best Rob. Game against JJ's Eldar yesterday went well for me but think that had a bit to do with JJ shooting at a Ghost ark for three turns that refused to die. I'm not totally sure about the lychguard unit with swords and shields, might be better with more shooting instead. |
