Hi all,

Here is my list with some shoot units inside what i was missing in my first army list build.

HQ

corbulo 100pts
dentonius ( Commander dante ) 200pts

TROOPS

10 x tactical marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,1x plasmacannon,8 x bolter ) + rhino 260pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts

ELITES

5 x death companny + rhino 100pts

FAST ATTACK

1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts
1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts

HEAVY SUPPORT

1 x Baal predator ( assault cannon,heavy bolters ) 125pts
1 x Whirlwind ( Whirlwind missile launcher ) 85pts

1500 pts with 43 models.
So i still have CC power with the strenght of dante and corbulo. But now I have some shoot units onboard for against horde army's I was thinking to swap the baal for a vindicator but the risk that a demolischer cannon can scatter on my own assault units scared me.

Comments welcome.

Hi all,

Here is my list with some shoot units inside what i was missing in my first army list build.

HQ

corbulo 100pts Attach to death company keep them inside the rhino and close to dante to back him up if he runs into trouble
dentonius ( Commander dante ) 200pts

Great HQ!

TROOPS

10 x tactical marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,1x plasmacannon,8 x bolter ) + rhino 260pts

I'd give these guys a lascannon and lose everything else and just keep them at the back near one of your objectives which should free up 50 pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts

These squads are good but i dont like having assult squads run across the field in the open
you could possibly have 3 five man assault squads each with a power weapon and a rhino with extra armour (instead of jump packs) which should save you another 20 pts (five less space marines but the added protection of rhinos)

ELITES

5 x death company + rhino 100pts

If you choose to use the 3 assualt squads the death company and rhino should only cost you 70 pts

so this should save you 30 pts

FAST ATTACK

1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts
1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts

Lose a bike which frees up another 50 pts

HEAVY SUPPORT

1 x Baal predator ( assault cannon,heavy bolters ) 125pts
1 x Whirlwind ( Whirlwind missile launcher ) 85pts
You now have 150 extra points to get your Vindicator! :)
I suggest you ditch the Whirlwind and an extra armour on 1 of the assault squads rhinos and also get a death company furiso dread ! (who doesn't love 4 S 10 attacks on the charge with D3 more?)
1500 pts with 43 models.
So i still have CC power with the strenght of dante and corbulo. But now I have some shoot units onboard for against horde army's I was thinking to swap the baal for a vindicator but the risk that a demolischer cannon can scatter on my own assault units scared me.

Comments welcome.
P.S. Get rid of the extra armour on another assault squad and give it to the death company you want to keep them moving with Brother Corbulo, Dante, and a Furiso Dread

A couple of suggestions:

HQ

corbulo 100pts
dentonius ( Commander dante ) 200pts
Dante is a bit expensive at 1500pts for my tastes (I like him in 2000+) I like the Dante+Corbulo combo but for my money I'd go for more bodies at this point level,

I would also argue that Corbulo is great but I wouldn't put him with the DC in this list, I'd give the DC JPs and have them follow behind the Rhino.

TROOPS

10 x tactical marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,1x plasmacannon,8 x bolter ) + rhino 260pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts

10 x assault marines
( sgt with powerweapon/bolt pistol,9 x chainsword/bolt pistol ) 265pts
Good all around troops here (more is better, like another Tac), I might take las over plas, but most importantly I'd consider taking a Rhino on one of your Assault Squads and slipping Corbulo inside. Remember you can always combat squad.

ELITES

5 x death companny + rhino 100pts
I'd lose the Rhino and take JPs, Corbulo can ride with one of your assault squads if they take the rhino instead, its cheaper and your DC won't benefit from Corbulo's special ability.
(I'm thinking he can control them from inside the rhino, and who says the DC need to be controlled anyway? Deep strike anyone?)

The lack of a VAS kind of hurts, if you decide to add one, put Corbulo with them instead and have them lose their JPs for the Rhino.

FAST ATTACK

1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts
1 x attack bike ( multimelta ) 50pts
1 more attack bike with MM wouldn't hurt (since you are looking towards building your force)
These things eat face. Period.

HEAVY SUPPORT

1 x Baal predator ( assault cannon,heavy bolters ) 125pts
1 x Whirlwind ( Whirlwind missile launcher ) 85pts
I'm not a fan of the Whirlwind, people swear by them, but I've never had much success with them in my BA lists. A second Baal Ped would be fun and fluffy, but nothing pwns like a pair of Vindi's

Good list Dento! Thanks for sharing :beer:

Tx for the reply's all,

I tested a 2 days ago against chaos and i have won the battle. My assault troops did very well in combination with cobulo and dante. My whirlwind killed 5 marines and he had send a squad of infiltrated chosen to hunt it down but it didnt work, they all get slained by assault troops. Tacticals where holding the objective all game long and they did their job. Attack bikes killed a deamonprince like they always do :act-up: Baal predator earned his points back.
