750pt v MEQ (1st game 6th ed)

[dorrin]

Hi all,

I've yet to taste the new 6th rules but have a 750pt game coming up. Ive had a slight rethink on my usual list and came up with this. Happy to be pokes with sticks to make changes from those who have more experience.

Cheers


=HQ=

Prime with LWBS

=ELITE=

2 x Hive Guard

=TROOP=

10 x Devilgaunts
1 x Tervigon - Claws, Toxin Sacs (dropped glands?), dropped catalyst but is it worth taking and swapping two out for new powers? Keep ranged as stinger salvo

=HEAVY=

Trygon Prime as is

With this Im at 730 points so far. HQ to run with spawned gaunts which will be a shield to get him in CC.

Hey Dorrin,
Looks like a fine start with two TMC's on the table for 750 points. Synapse is OK with three nodes.

I would definetly swap 2 Tervi-powers for 2 biomancy rolls. Iron Arm, Enfeeble, Endurance and Life leech are all pretty good.

The only thing your list is lacking IMO is a cheap gaunt screen, but your Tervi can produce those if you want. For the 20 points extra you have, you could buy an extra Tervi-power, but not sure if that's worth 15 points. (it still can only cast one each turn). Probably 2 more Devilgaunts or Regen on the alpha warrior and TS on the Trygon is your best bet.

Try the list out and let us know how it went?

TS on the Trygon would be nice for the rerolls, though surving to get in to CC is always a task in itself. Bit of a firepower magnet. Could be a way to go though.
