Greetings fellow Asur,
the time has come again to assemble the might of the Asur. I will be playing against the Astra Militarum in a Brigade Detachment 1500 points next week on tuesday. My first thought on facing Atstra Militarum was: Alaitoc. I think it will be quiet entertaining watching all those Mon´keigh hitting their targets on a 5+ or even worse on a 6+.
I will be bringing 1 Battalion Detachment and 2 Spearhead Detachments for my delicious cheese fondue.
The list:
++ Spearhead Detachment +1CP (Aeldari - Craftworlds) [22 PL, 425pts] ++
+ No Force Org Slot +

+ Elites +
Wraithguard [11 PL, 225pts]: D-scythe, 5x Wraithguard
+ Dedicated Transport +
Wave Serpent [9 PL, 154pts]: Shuriken Cannon, Spirit Stones, Twin Shuriken Cannon, Vectored Engines
++ Total: [75 PL, 1484pts] ++
The plan is to screen off deep striking units and to keep the distance beyond 12" for the heavy hitters. D-Cannons, Reapers will chew through tanks and flyers as they come within range. Autarch will be the buff-stick for them.
Rangers and Dire Avengers will be camping in ruins and create the 9" range bubble to keep of any deep strikers. Warlocks be foot slogging among them for Conceal.
Farseer with Executioner and Mind War will be with the Wraithguard in the Serpent storming the enemy lines and wreak havoc. Farseer with Doom and Protect will be helping D-Cannons and Dark Reapers to kill off important targets.
Illic is there just for the lulz.
I have a few points left and I might can swap out 5 Dire Avengers for 10 Guardians with a Weapon Platform. My guess is that spirit stones on the wave serpent are overkill. I will be advancing anyway so the -2 to hit is already hard to chew through.
Thoughts?
