Aothaine Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hey everyone! So I'm still playing around with a list I want to build for the LVO. I was looking through my Custode codex last night and I saw a pretty cool option. The Shield-Captain in Allarus Armour can take a relic that allows them to instantly teleport to another imperial character chosen at the beginning of the game. I was thinking about taking the Cpt. Smash and the Librarian with power-axe options for my HQ for my Flesh tearers and I was curious what you guys though about possibly adding in the one Shield-Captain with that relic. I'm honestly not even sure this is possible. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H311fi5h Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 People have tried to combo the Praetorian Plate on a Terminator Vexilus Praetor with the Vexilla Teleport Homer Strategem in the following movement phase in order to teleport an entire squad of Allarus Terminators in 3" away from the enemy. There is just one problem with this: The Preatorian Plate triggers at the end of you opponent's charge phase. Since you have to nominate the character you want to teleport to, your opponent will either stay far away from the nominated character or gun him down in the shooting phase if he gets too close. But he certainly won't charge him or allow him to heroically intervene. In summary, unless you opponent is unaware of what the relic does, it probably won't do much for you.

I was wondering if it might be useful as a deterrent to help keep one of my Flesh Tearer HQs alive. But I can see some of the issues with this now. Going to have to look into this some more.

Charlo Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Teleport beacon for the Sanguine Vision (Charlo) activated. ETA some time this evening... It's possible. But it's gimmicky and cool in casual games. Captain Smash would need to survive a turn for it to work though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aothaine Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Really appreciate the feedback. I do like the idea of having him teleport in to support an HQ. Maybe a Librarian Dreadnought would work better for this combo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might actually work better with SW characters and their 6" Heroic Intervention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
