How's this one?
« on: October 13, 2006, 10:19:03 PM »
Okay this is 1000 pointer, feel free to yell and scream about how this isnt going to work im hopeful. Suggestions are always welcome.

The fluff behind this army is kinda wierd but hey im kinda wierd.

The army of Ridora. The planet was a beautiful agri-hive world, in a nut-shell a warpstorm surrounded the planet, from it huge ork roks emerged carrying millions of the damned greenskins. The people fought tooth and nail until, guess what, their brave and loyal soldiers slaughtered the green tide. They thought they were safe but fate send a massive asteroid from the warp and it smashed into the planet and splintered it into several pieces. The warp storms dissipated and the imperium came to them. The imperium felt the world was dead and left them to die upon it. One compassionate captain of the imperial navy vowed to help them. Now the people fly all over the galaxy looking for the battle that will win them back into the minds of the imperium once again. Pheww okay now for the army list.

Maybe concider having a couple of grenade Launchers instead and have this as a mobile squad to distribute the moral to where it is needed.

Targets, give both Platoon HQ units Auto-cannons instead. This will not only help you bust transports eairly but you will also allievate your poor anti-hoard.

Fair enough, tack a special weapon on if you find the points.

You shouldy lable these 'Rough Riders'. Very expensive and slow so you should probably use these as special weapons gun boats rather than charging over with hunting lances.

Trade Mark Items are 'Officer only' so Sarge. cannot take them. Your Sarge. also has 3 weapons, so he is going to have to drop one. Rename Shotgun, Laspistol as you flip off the shotgun to get the hunting lances, same thing so in the end so its not really a problem.

   10- Child Sniper Squad (Ratlings)
Drop to 8 and use the found 20 odd points on other things, drop to 6 if you see something else you really like (Like Plasma or Grenade Launchers in your Line Squads).

Oh okay, from reading the codex you think they could take stuff listed as "officer only"

Also only the RR with th veteran sergeant has the xeno-mounts. Theyll be in front as the lancers can hide behind then break off the turn when they can charge.

Okay ill drop some kids of, poor guys just wanted to fight too.

DId yousay grenade launchers? Can do!
