Adepticon – Army Option 2


Here is the second bag that is sitting by my front door in anticipation of leaving on Thursday. I think you can guess from the picture which book this army crawls out of.

It’s 1,850 on the nose. . It’s another all infantry list and it’s pretty close to my Loganwing from Nova last year which tore it up pretty nice over the course of the weekend. I did swap out 4 ML’s for 4 MM’s to help with Paladin armies and LR’s since I’ve been lacking in that for a while. The extra bodies from the Termie squad go into the LF’s to give them some more survivability.

The idea being that where movement is key Logan will join up with one of the LF squads (probably the MM) to give me 6 mobile heavy weapon units. The list boasts 16 ML shots and 4 MM with supporting combi-plasma for anyone using regular terminators. The Lone Wolves are beasts as we all know and when combined with Logan will generally be sufficient for any CC threat out there. The extra SB’s on everyone is pretty huge for putting wounds out there.

And most importantly….It’s heavily converted and well painted. It looks pretty sweet on the table top and it’s a little different from what you normally see. Add in that it’s a decent counter to GK’s and I think it can thrive in the current meta.

This did look familiar!! I had a tough time with it last year and it is low on kill points which helps. Do you have enough mobility though? With some of the missions last year where you have to get into your opponents deployment zone? Just a small pebble into your pond. I would like this better if you had a unit of scouts.
20 ML shots, isn't it?

Well hot dog. I miscounted :) It is indeed 20 ML shots. For some reason I was thinking the list with 3 LF squads was the one with 20 ML shots :)
I like the addition of the MM squad. I was debating using some Plasma Cannons as anti-Termy, but the MM are clearly better. Especially versus Land Raiders.

How often do you think you will be able to plunk the MM Long Fangs in cover near the middle of the board thus freeing up Logan for somewhere else?
