Road to Nova 2010-Update

So to sum things up, the last week and a half there was no 40k time. However, I plan on doing some painting this weekend and I will get pics up soon. I had one test battle with the Calgar list. Despite the fact that I won, I saw some glaring weaknesses that a solid list or general would exploit. Mainly, I had no mobility. Wherever my pod with Calgar landed, that was where I was trapped.

So my new list is completely different. I am trying to utilize the most firepower possible. This is a list that spams predators, rifleman dreads, and speeders:


HQ) Librarian: Null Zone, Gate of Infinity..........................................................................100

Elite) Dreadnought: 2 Twin-linked Autocannons...............................................................125

Elite) Dreadnought: 2 Twin-linked Autocannons...............................................................125

Elite) Dreadnought: 2 Twin-linked Autocannons...............................................................125

Troop) Tactical Squad (10): Flamer, Missile Launcher, Sgt. Bolt Pistol, Chainsword..........170 -Razorback: Twin-linked Lascannon...............................................................75

Troop) Tactical Squad (10): Flamer, Missile Launcher, Sgt. Bolt Pistol, Chainsword..........170 -Razorback: Twin-linked Lascannon...............................................................75

Troop) Tactical Squad (5): Sgt. Combi-flamer...................................................................100
-Razorback: Twin-linked Lascannon...............................................................75

Fast) Land Speeder Squadron (2): Typhoon Missile Launcher, Heavy Bolter.....................180

Fast) Land Speeder Squadron (2): Typhoon Missile Launcher, Heavy Bolter.....................180

Fast) Land Speeder Squadron (2): Multi-melta, Heavy Flamer..........................................140

Heavy) Predator: Autocannon, Sponson Lascannons.........................................................120

Heavy) Predator: Autocannon, Sponson Lascannons.........................................................120

Heavy) Predator: Autocannon, Sponson Lascannons.........................................................120

I will play around with some variations but this is pretty much what I want to run. I think it can outshoot most armies and still be mobile enough to stay out of combat. More to come.

  1. Hey Ultrabob how did your games at NOVA Open go? By any chance will we be able to see some Batreps? And is there any thing you would change about your list?

  2. @Mighty, NOVA went really well. I ended up going 3-1. I was planning on doing Battle reports but I have been so caught up with the Battle for Salvation Tournament that I havent gotten a chance yet. Although a lot of the work for that is now done, perhaps I can post up some more stuff soon.
