so today i played a 1500 point simulation(self-game to test out csm stuff since my friend leaves his army at my place cause i have a table).
now he kept whining about tyranid biomancy spam being ridic. so i made a 1500(1499 technically)pt thousand sons noise marine boon spam list and took em up against my tyranids(i also layed off the tervi spam and flyrant- since it was no vehicles).
game was table halves (long ways)- mission type 4(obj of unknown value)
chaos list looked like:
HQ- chaos sorceror- +2 mastery levels+ mark of tzeench+ scrolls of magnus+sigil of corruption(got boon of mutation, doombolt, and dark symphony- really wanted symphony). this was warlord- got 12" move through cover aura, furious charge in enemy deployment zone(lol), tactical redeployment and hatred as wl traits.
chaos lord- mark of slaanesh+combi-bolter+sigil of corruption
troops:
2 squads identically equipped- noise marines+5 extra marines+ sonic blasters(8)+blastmaster(1)+doom siren(champion- was wasteful), icon of excess
2 identical squads- thousand sons+icon of flame. sorc in both squads got boon
heavy support:
havoc+heavy bolter(4)+mark of tzeench+icon of flame+combi-bolter(champ)
havoc+autocannon(4)+mark of slaanesh+ icon of excess
now within my gaming group im that guy everyone hates because no matter what dice i touch they seem to roll almost entirely too much in my favor....but it seems my luck went entirely to the csm's as my nids rolled worse than i ever had(ygmarls came in turn 5 as game ended).
turn 1 for chaos i scored a deamon prince on boon. same turn 2, and a third time turn 4(also got a chaos spawn).
basically kept unattaching champions from squads to boon them. worked beautifully. symphony+sonic blasters shredded my one tervigon hardcore as the csm had really good firing lanes.
any advice for this type of list? i know its lacking anti-vehicle but i was toying with like 1750-²k lists using this as a framework 1500
.
i really like this list thus far, noise marines were the army i originally intended to play back in 3rd before i walked in a gw and fell in love with nids cause id never seen the models in person
Edit: self-deleted this thread in tactics and moved it here. Somehow missed the fact tactics was separate from other lists lol.
