This list looks more realistic at the moment since I own all of models listed already and don’t need to purchase anything else until after I complete the list. I have some options for the HQ slot, but haven’t decided on what I will do for the mandatory unit at this point. (I am shying away from the commissar lord at this point.)
Back to finishing the model...
The barrel of the gun was completed using the same color scheme as my grey knight terminator from March.

I suggest adding a banewolf or two to the army if you don't have a plan for your fast attack choices yet. I have field 2 of them against chaos space marines and they tore them up. I fielded them with a hull multimelta so they can also hunt tanks. I killed a chaos predator in a first turn shot and later a turboboosting nurgle biker squad. I got lucky and I know they will be a target number one in the next game but better them than a 200+ point leman russ.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advise. I sounds like a cool option and something I will need to consider.
ReplyDeleteThe list so far looks good, and should do really well against any infantry-based army, but adding in some anti-tank (once you finish those guys) would be my first priority if I were you.
ReplyDeleteThe banewolves do sound like a great option (though I'm personally not going to fork out 60 squids for them), with extra anti-heavy infantry and a solid base of anti-tank (though it is still only two shots per turn that hit half the time, so you may be better off with another option - like a missile launcher heavy weapon squad.
