1750 Death Cult Assassin list
Hi Brothers and Sisters,
I've been looking at a DCA list, might not be effective but surely a bit worrying to face:
HQ: 270
Coteaz - 100
Librarian - 170
- The Shrouding, Might of Titan, Warp Rift, Quicksilver, Hammerhand (free)
Elite: 390
Venerable Dread - 195
-2 TLAC, Psy Ammo
Venerable Dread - 195
-2 TLAC, Psy Ammo
Troops: 570
Warband 1 - 135 ( Coteaz here )
- 9x Death Cult Assassin
Warband 2 - 185 ( Librarian here )
- 9x Death Cult Assassin, Razorback, Psybolt ammo
Warband 3 - 125
- 5x Death Cult Assassin, Razorback, Psybolt ammo
Warband 4 - 125
- 5x Death Cult Assassin, Razorback, Psybolt ammo
Heavy: 520
Land Raider Redeemer - 260
- Psybolt ammunition, Multi-Melta
Land Raider Redeemer - 260
- Psybolt ammunition, Multi-Melta
Total = 1750
So Coteaz rides in a LRC with a unit of DCA and the Libby rides in the other LRC with the other unit of DCA.
I put DCA in Razorbacks to hold objective as most of the time most people use 3 Warrior Acolytes and lets be honest they aren't going to survive an assault but the DCA might. Also 1 Razorback will be empty.
The Ven dreads are to make them more durable.
I gave the Libby quicksilver just in-case I face another unit of DCA so should go first.
Game plan in a nut shell:
move+pop smoke+Shrouding to get up close on bot LRC whilst dreads and Razorbacks fire away.
Thoughts?
Downside is: my high AV is lacking, all I have is 2 Twin-Linked S7 Assault Cannons and 2 Multi-Meltas.

Re: 1750 Death Cult Assassin list
Hey shadow!
I love the idea of a Death Cult Assassin army!
Personally I think you could get away with swapping one Land Raider Redeemer for a rhino. Tactically the rhino can survive pretty damn well hidden behind the Land Raider Redeemer especially if you have shrouding.
I'd also look at Sanctuary to try and deny some enemy counter assaults - bargain at 5pts.
Also I would look at filling that empty transport with a 3man Death cult unit, the unit size stops a bunch of x death cult assassins running away on leadership 8.
Lastly Crusaders could be helpful addition.
Hope this helps.

Hey Stormknight,
Yeah I had Rhinos originally, I just thought that the 2 AV14 will be harder to deal with especially for other GK players. Sanctuary is a really good idea.

Re: 1750 Death Cult Assassin list
I'd probably keep the two larger squads of DCA, maybe add some crusaders if possible (1-2), as they can go in the LRR's, then look at some better troop options, like henchmen with melta and SB's.
Without assault vehicles you won't get into combat, and that part of the list is fine, but the rest of the list is more troublesome.
I'd even consider removing the Lib, getting a Inq with Rad Nades (replacement), and spending those points on more troops.

Re: 1750 Death Cult Assassin list
Thanks Zealadin, the idea of the Libby was for protection more than anything else AV14 with a 3+ cover save? Yes please.
I was trying not to use normal Warrior Acolytes as they just seem to die quickly and if there holding an objective they won't do much against some wolf scouts for example, whereas some DCA might hold a better chance.
