Hi Folks,
I've been mucking about with the Vanilla Dex, trying to get something to work that's Blood Angels inspired, but without any Elite Jump Pack Troops. So... yeah.
Anyhow, I've come up with the following, using models I have at my disposal. I'd love to hear your thoughts, some things are kind of borderline. I'm pretty sure I'd go with White Scars, as I kind of want to be in Close Combat, but I also want to shoot stuff.
Slow Moving Core: The Razors and Dreads are a slow moving fire support group. Their purpose is to get to the midfield, claim an objective, and generally anchor the advance.
Tactical Squad [5]: Plasma Gun, Melta Bombs
Razorback: Lascannon + Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade
Tactical Squad [5]: Plasma Gun, Melta Bombs
Razorback: Twin-Linked Assault Cannon, Dozer Blade
Dreadnought [2]: 2x Assault Cannon, 2x Storm Bolter
Fast moving harassment units: These can hurt a variety of units, and move quickly enough to engage them in cc. Once engaged, they can break off, allowing the slower support units time to move into firing range.
Chapter Master: Artificer Armour, Power Fist, Auspex, SM Bike, The Shield Eternal
Bike Squad [5]: 2x Grav Guns, Melta Bombs
Assault Squad [5]: 2x Flamers, Veteran Sergeant w/ Eviscerator
Librarian: Force Axe, Terminator Armour, Storm Shield, Melta Bombs
Assault Terminators [5]: 5x Thunder Hammer + Storm Shield
Storm Raven: Twin-Linked Multi Melta, Twin-Linked Lascannon, 4x Storm Strike Missiles
Oddball unit that I want to try: I've got some Death Company models that I want to try using, and Honour Guard seem like the best fit for them.
Honour Guard [7]: 3x Power Sword, 3x Power Axe, Thunder Hammer, Chapter Banner [PA]
Drop Pod: Storm Bolter
So what do you think?
