Updated list: what to do?
« on: February 17, 2003, 02:08:38 PM »
I've been playing around with my list recently and have come up with a list that's around 1900 points.  Now I just need to take off around 50 points to make it tournament legal.  Help me decide!  Here's the list:

Cannoness- Plasma Pistol, Axe of Retribution, Rosarius

Body Guard-(9)- Heavy Flamer, Flamer, frags, Hospitaller w/ Medicus, Diaglogus, Vet Sister w/ Plasma Pistol and PW
---
Priestly Delegation-5 Preachers w/ bolter and CCW (1 w/ each BS squad, 1 w/ Rets)
---
4 Squads of SoB-10 Sisters, 2 w/ 2 flamers, 2 w/ 2 melta guns

2 Squads of Reds-20 Reds, 4 Zealots in Each, Red Priest in each w/ PW, carapace, and bolt pistol.
---
2 Squads of Seraphim-10 Seraphim, 2 Flamers in each, both have a Vet Sister w/ Plasma Pistol and power weapon
---
2 Exorcists w/ Extra Armor

10 Rets-4 HBs

This all comes to around 1907 points...help me bring it down!

Well, first off.

Then the Preachers. Bolter and CCW? The CCWs doesn't help at all! Remove them. Another 5 points.
Total 5 points removed with no loss of efficiency.

Oh...and downgrade the sister Dialogus to a regular sister. Include a preacher with a bolter. A sister dialogus is only worth it if you're going to give her a plasma pistol...or you have already filled out your maximum amount of preachers and still want more faithpoints.
1 Model and 3 points gained, nothing lost.

Lets see now. 49 points left to shave away. You have a few options.


1.You always remove a few of the regular battlesisters. Make a squad a small suicide squad of sisters packing flamers.
2. Remove a few sisters the HB squad.
3. Downgrade Zealots to just regular troopers.
4. remove the Carapace armor and/or Powerweapons on the Redemptor priests. ALOT of things ignore 4+ armor. Personally I don't like having the Redemptor priests at the frontline. Any decent close combat specialist will mow him down like he was nothing. They're far more valuable at the FAR back of the squad keeping it going.
This is just a personal opinion though.
Deathball, the new game of bloody basketball, 40k style!

+++Excerpt from Last Chaos/Space marine game, commentator: Inquisitor Khalheed "The Purgator" Qhor, Ex-Deathball player+++

Chaos vs Space Marine grudgematch today ended 23-19 when Brother Grazieel decimated the chaos team with a heavy bolter.

Afterwards the Chaos Coach Zhuriel the Damned stated "If we weren't ideologically in favor of cheating we'd complain about this""
+++End of transmission+++

Oops, I meant bolt pistol (for the 'ole extra attack) instead of bolter.  And I've been thinking of taking out the carapace armor, that's an extra ten points.  And as for the Dialogus, I was thinking about giving her a PP if I could get the points, but I was gonna save that for later.  For tournament purposes I don't want any squads under full strength...so that still leaves me with points to get rid of!

You could loose some of the Sisters in the Ret squad, carapace armour, maybe the Power Weapons. that should get you those extra points
