What up nerds

 

I’ve been want to do EC for a while now and have decided they are the next project...

 

I love the tactical idea of the Maru Skara and wanted to do a fast striking combat force

 

Here it is:

 

Preator - Bike, IH, Paragon blade, DL, sonic shrieker

- 5x command squad: Bikes, melta bombs, 5x shield, 2x fist, 2x axe, 1x sabre

 

Champion - Bike, RF, AA, S.shrieker, Phoenix spear

 

2x Apothecary - bikes, power swords

 

15x Assault marines - 3x power axe, srg: Sheild, AA, MB, Spear

15x Assault marines - 3x power axe, srg: Sheild, AA, MB, Spear

15x Assault marines - 3x power axe, srg: Sheild, AA, MB, Spear

 

2x Jav - MM, Missile launcher

 

5x outrider - MB’s, 1x Axe, 1x Spear, PLASMA

 

Lightning - GTA, BSC, 4x kraken

 

3x slayer support - MM

 

Sicaran venator - DB

Sicaran venator - DB

 

—————————-

 

So there it is!

 

Much like my brother in the other MS list, I wanted to go full assault squads. I think they will lend themselves to the 3rds way and most importantly look baller!

 

The aim was to keep everything fast. No hanging around and not a fan of going the spartan route as done that before. The answer.... bikes!

 

Preator takes his command squad and an apoth rocking AA on all and the added FNP I think will make them survivable enough to make combat. The champion goes with the other apoth in the plasma squad, outflanking with the javs and lightning in the hidden blade bringing in some much needed ap2, as well as the flyer to take on other flyers/heavy ground targets. Javs for harassing and light vehicles.

 

Finally in HS, the venators and bikes. Not a huge fan of the venators, but wanted it all fast and needed some anti-tank starting in the board. Argus would have been nice, but having to stand still to really benefit I don’t think fit the theme.

 

The Multi-melta bikes are there due to spare points and again, fit the theme

 

So I think I lack mass firepower and all my units are pretty fragile but hey, it’s the EC way to look good whilst being perfect at your job so I hoping this will be fun, fast, look sweet, but not get steamrolled

 

Thoughts?????

Looks solid to me.

 

You could swap one of the venators for an arcus or whilwind scorpius. Or alternatively one of my other EC-playing friends has just purchased himself a Malcadore Annihilator to act as a bulwark in his Maru Skara list.

I did consider an arcus, but the fact it has to sit back to benefit from ripple fire I didn't feel it fit the fast theme as well

 

I've also elected to ditch the lightning and sky slayers for a fire raptor and melta attack bikes so could do with the extra anti heavy tank now
