Hi all,

I am currently preping for a 4,750pts apoc game this after noon against the tyranids... I have no I dea what is going to be fielded by my opponent but I am taking Ultramarines, and this I swear...

I shall see Macragge rise again

my list is as follows:


Lord Macragge, Regent of Ultimar, Marneus Calgar = 215

10 TH/SS terminators = 400
10 TH/SS terminators = 400
10 TH/SS terminators = 400
10 TH/SS terminators = 400
10 TH/SS terminators = 400
10 Terminators, heavy flamer, cyclone missiles = 435
10 Terminators, heavy flamer, cyclone missiles = 435
10 Terminators, heavy flamer, cyclone missiles = 435
10 Terminators, heavy flamer, assault cannon = 435
10 Terminators, heavy flamer, assault cannon = 435

this all comes to 4,640pts

I'm not quite sure what to add to make up the points but this is epic... I mean an entire 1st company, and because of the rules I can't hold them in reserve either so everything arrives turn 1... (quietly hoping he gets 1st turn so I can come in and shoot with 0 losses)

I also get the last stand strategem for free... does anyone have any ideas on what I should add to make up the points?
also how well do you thing this list is going to do and how do you see my battle plan working?

Hmm. It could work well. A while since I've played against nids, nearly 18 months actually, but unless he has a bunch of units that ignore armour, you should do well enough. Does he have any bio-titans, or the flying GC..? I forgot what it's called.



110 points left.. hmm. Maybe a chaplain with digital weapons? He's only armour 3, true, but he'll give one of your terminator squads rerolls to hit while still alive. If you can find another 25 points, I'd drop the digi weapons and give him TDA.

Well of course a fan of the Iron Hands would pop up in a metal-hat and cyber-monocle and proclaim "Preposterous!" while waving his power cane at the nay-sayer.

very fluffy however didnt the 1st company get wiped out by tyranids :tu:

you could really do with a few whirlwinds in there but without dropping a squad or termies that aint going to happen. you could fit a lone thunderfire cannon in there for some ranged template death though i imagine it will be a bullet magnet

about 250 years ago yes.. the first company is now considered to be at full strength (until chapters due that is)
anyway the limiting factor is that the 1st co, only has 74 suits of TDA

I may be missing something here as I don't play apocalypse but Calgar costs 250points 265 with his termie armour.

When you absolutely positively know that your next dice roll is going to obliterate your enemy, we call that "showing him his nan".

Yup. And the points listed add up to 4390 not 4640. Even with Calgars correct cost it's still 200 points out.

360 points could buy a lot of Thunderfire/Whirlwind to take out any squishy 'nids.
