350pts of Win? Empty 350pts of Win?

Post by bigbri Thu Jul 28, 2011 7:35 pm

So as another part of my stores birthday celebration they're holding a 350pt game. No force org and no restrictions, again since there are sweet sweet prizes on offer I want the toughestt army I can muster. I figure regular GKs will be too expensive to field, so i was thinking maybe a henchmen list of crusaders and DCA's and a Jokaero(for the customisation/ heavy weapon if necessary).
For this I have my GK's, SW(no cav unfortunately) Black Templars, Guard(lots of heavy weapons and a manticore maybe?) or some regular Smurfs.
Lists will be posted tomorrow when I've had time to kick some numbers around, but any suggestions of what I can fit in a small game from my stuff would be greatly appreciated.

At such a low point value, I'd think that a Guard infantry list would probably do well. They can certainly field a ton of bodies.

Indeed I've been kicking round some ideas using lots of heavy weapons, the problem is if someone brings AV14 to the table, so here's to hoping a couple of lascannons can do the job. Current list is:
Platoon Command squad
- 4x grenade Launcher
Infantry Squad
- Auto cannon
- Grenade Launcher
Infantry Squad
- Auto cannon
- Grenade Launcher
Heavy Weapon Squad
- 2x Auto Cannon
- Lascannon
Heavy Wapon Squad
- 2x Auto cannon
- Lascannon
Basically the idea behind this list is MOAR DAKKA. The proliferation of str 6/7 should hopefully be enough to stun. destroy any light mech while the lascannons try and ping AV 14 should i run into any. My biggest problem with this list is if I run into termies or something like a shunting DK since I lack the high str/low ap to quickly kill it.

That's great but for GK/ =I=, try:
350pts
Vindicare assassin (145)
4X warrior acolyte(4) + MG(10) + razrback(45) + Psy ammo(5) = 71
3X warrior acolyte(4) + MG(10) + razrback(45) + Psy ammo(5) = 67
3X warrior acolyte(4) + MG(10) + razrback(45) + Psy ammo(5) = 67

Stay true to the GK/Daemonhunters cheers

@GMKDynamis Staying true to the GK is nice, but I'm having a hard time finding a list I really like I did toy with the idea of an assassin but they are very expensive in relation to the pts value. Henchmen look good, but without transports they're squishy, and with them they really rack up pts wise. Latest list I've come up with is:
Henchmen Warband
- 5x DCA
- 3x Crusaders
- 2x Acolyte w/Meltagun
- Rhino
Henchmen Warband
- 3x Jokaero
- 1x Servitor w/Plasma Cannon
- Chimera w/ Multi Laser + Heavy Bolter
This gives me a fairly survivable fairly deadly assault unit backed up with a decent firebase with the the dakka chimera and the monkeys. The problem I have is I don't think 1 assaulty unit is enough(but I can't fit in another since transports get expensive) and if the servitor mindlocks I be FUBAR. Still think my IG gunline castled could do much more damage.
