1500 point game coming up at the end of August, thought I'd give this a whirl:
1500 - Dreadnought List
Battalion Detachment
Captain
~ Master-crafted boltgun, chainsword
~ The Veritas Vitae
Lieutenant
~ Hand flamer, chainsword, jump pack
Scouts (5)
~ Sniper rifle, chainsword
~ Missile Launcher, camo cloak
~ Boltgun (3)
Scouts (5)
~ Boltgun, chainsword
~ Shotgun
~ Bolt pistol, combat knife (3)
Scouts (5)
~ Boltgun, chainsword
~ Shotgun
~ Bolt pistol, combat knife (3)
Furioso Dreadnought
~ Storm bolter, heavy flamer, furioso fists (pair)
~ Smoke launchers
Relic Contemptor Dreadnought
~ Twin lascannon, graviton blaster, Dreadnought combat weapon
Spearhead Detachment
Librarian Dreadnought
~ Storm bolter
~ Smite, Quickening, Wings of Sanguinius
~ Warlord (Artisan of War)
Mortis dreadnought
~ Twin autocannons
Relic Leviathan Dreadnought
~ Grav-flux bombard, meltagun, siege claw
Devastators (5)
~ Missile launcher
~ Heavy bolter
~ Boltgun (3)
~ Armorium Cherub
Thoughts and options
- 9 CPs with the Vertias Vitae as cover
- Mortis over regular because of points difference
- Lieutenant gear because that's the model I've got
- First Scout Squad looks weird but the theory is once the chaff has gone the missile launcher gets a bonus to his save. Will be camping an objective or somewhere useful, similar to the Devastators
- Devastators have the option of mortal wound shenanigans on either <FLY> or anything with multiple wounds. Scout ML is backup
- Other two Scout Squads are the first wave and push hard at the start. Second wave is the Librarian Dreadnought and Furioso
- Mortis, Contemptor, Leviathan are babysat by the Captain & Lieutenant at first, before the Lieutenant being able to UWoF to where needed later on. I expect this group to push forward either centrally or on a flank, Will need to be dealt with
- Librarian Dreadnought is the Warlord just for Artisan of War. Is there a better choice?
- What am I missing and/or have I covered every base?
C&C appreciated
