Well I said I’d be posting the a list showing where I’m starting from based on my last article. Here is the seed I hope to grow a usable army out of:
HQ
Prime – 95
Dual Boneswords, Deathspitter
Prime – 95
Dual Boneswords, Deathspitter
Elite
2 Hive Guard – 100
2 Hive Guard – 100
2 Hive Guard – 100
Troop
15 Genestealers – 210
15 Genestealers – 210
10 Termagants – 50
5 Warriors – 225
Deathspitter, Toxin Sacs, Rending Claws
5 Warriors – 225
Deathspitter, Toxin Sacs, Rending Claws
Fast Attack
5 Raveners – 175
Rending Claws
5 Raveners – 175
Rending Claws
15 Gargoyles – 90
Total: 1,850
I know, it’s different but bear with me. The Primes join the Warriors naturally to form a very solid shooting and CC unit. The Prime provides additional survival for the squad against instant death while making the Warriors WS6 BS4 which is real nice. The Gargoyles are naturally a moving screen for the army that can at least mildly threaten units that are in the open. The additional termagant squad is pretty much an additional scoring unit whose job is to survive to score objectives. The Raveners and Genestealers do a lot of the heavy lifting while the Hive Guard do what they do. I think it might be enough. I plan to give this list a run later today against one of the better local players to see how it shakes out so expect a battle report by Monday J
Thoughts?
