While hunting through all my Crap looking for Meltaguns I came across* a box
*I use the phrase 'came across' in the discovery sense of the phrase before anybody tries to be witty, I mean it was a nice surprise but nothing worth climaxing over.
Anyway, where was I?
Okay I'd just discovered a box which contained an in progress project of mine to make a scorpion-like tank** using a Defiler and some Tau Parts.
** I may have stolen this idea from somebody else to be honest.
But as I can't motivate myself to do anything without an army list being involved I needed to find a constructive use for the 'Defilertank'. Luckily in the same search I found 15 under-coated but unpainted Marines.
As I'm making some Daemon Princes for my Chaos Daemon army and am also making new Close Combat arms so I can use my Dreadnoughts as Furioso's the following list leapt from the buried recesses of my brain***
***It's possible I stole this as well (The idea not the brain).

Everything charges forward as fast as possible. There only being one Champion is quite deliberate (free cookie for the first person to guess why ****)
**** It's a hypothetical cookie so don't get too excited.
ooooh oooooh, i know, i know!
ReplyDeleteits so you know exactly where that greater daemon is coming out, hence why he has no power fist.
w00t, hypothetical cookie for me!
came across a box, i bet you did! oh wait never mind
ReplyDeletealso 5 plague marines? why not zerkers if your racing forward?
@Mark - 5 Plague Marines survive torrents of fire better and can also tar-pit units quite reliably.
ReplyDeleteBerzerkers need the Fisty Champ to be useful which means I can only afford 2 units. Also Berzerkers suck at holding objectives and don't get Meltaguns.
NO EXPLANATION!!!! of what will happen to the scorpion like tank!!!
ReplyDeleteFINISH IT!
It's next project after the Blood Angels Jump Pack guys are painted. Most of it is done it just needs the individual parts combining together and some magnetising so I can swap weapons on it as necessary. Haven't quite worked out how I'm going to do the turret/cannon yet though.
