Sons of Horus - 3000pts Black Reaving


Recommended Posts

Greetings all

I was bored so threw together a list for the Black Reaving based on feedback on previous lists, new purchases and planned purchases. Comments and criticism welcome, as I wanna get some opinions on if this is a snazzy list or pile of garbage...

 

 

Sons of Horus, 3000pts Black Reaving

HQ
Legion Praetor (Artificer Armour, Digital Lasers, Iron Halo, Melta Bombs, Power Fist, Paragon Blade)
Master of Signal (Artificer Armour, Refractor Field)
Chaplain (Artificer Armour, Refractor Field, Power Axe, Melta Bombs)

ELITES
Legion Destroyer Squad (10 man, Melta Bombs, Jump Packs, 2x Toxiferran Flamers, Powerfist/AA on Sergeant)

Contemptor Cortus Talon (3 Dreadnoughts, Chainfist/Claw each with Extra Armour)

TROOPS
Legion Assault Squad (10 man, Melta Bombs, Powerfist/AA on Sergeant)
Legion Assault Squad (10 man, Melta Bombs, Powerfist/AA on Sergeant)
Legion Tactical Squad (18 man, Close Combat Weapons, Powerfist/AA on Sergeant)

FAST ATTACK
Javelin Land Speeder (Multi-Melta, Cyclone Missile Launcher)
Javelin Land Speeder (Multi-Melta, Cyclone Missile Launcher)
Storm Eagle Assault Gunship (Missile Launcher, Twin-Linked Lascannons, Vengeance Launcher)

HEAVY SUPPORT
Leviathan Siege Dreadnought (Dreadnought Drop Pod, Siege Claw + Drill, 2x Meltaguns, Phosphex, Ceramite)
Heavy Support Squad (10 man, Missile Launchers, Artificer Armour on Sergeant)

 

The plan is the Master of Signals will go with the Heavy Support Squad, and the Praetor/Chaplain just slot into the Tactical Squad onboard the Storm Eagle. Leviathan drops down turn 1 and minces any spooky anti-air to make sure the Storm Eagle doesn't get violated horribly upon arrival. The Assault Squads and Destroyers move up the board and dare armour to come too close to them, while the Heavy Support Squad provides missile fire from the backfield with BS5. Cortus Dreadnoughts move up the table like sheepdogs and herd the enemy force into position because nobody wants a dreadnought inside them.

Thoughtss & Opinions, or suggestions on how to improve this if I've missed something glaring and obvious. Thanks <3

 

EDIT: Am aware Black Reaving provides literally no benefit, may redo for Angel's Wrath or something...

The list is fine. But if you have:

 

- No Justaerin

- No Outflanking infantry

- No reavers

 

Then why are you picking "Black Reaving" as the RoW for this list? You are basically giving away an entire Heavy Support slot just for the rage bonus and nothing else.
