List Review

I love the show, listen all the time and would like to submit a list for review (I’ve posted it on the Forums as well, so not sure if that is expected or makes this not viable? I’ve never submitted one for review before for the show… either way, here goes)

1850 – Clan Raukaan, Red Hunters, Inquisition, Fortification

Primary (Clan Raukaan)

Chapter Master – bike, art. armor, gorgon’s chain, axe of medusa, digital weaps. (warlord hoping for a 3 on the trait table for 3+ FnP!)

Scout Squad – 10x bolters

Tactical Squad – 10 man total, plas, combi-plas, rhino

Stormtalon – skyhammers

TFC x2

Inquisition

Coteaz

Fortification

Aegis – quad gun

Allies (Red Hunters)

Captain – bike, artificer armor, power fist, storm shield, combi-grav

Command Squad – bikes, apothecary, 4x grav

Bike Squad – 6 man total, 2x grav, combi-grav, melta bombs

Devastator Squad – 6 man total, 4x lascannon

Overview of Red Hunters Chapter Tactics (Forge World, everyone might not be familiar?):

– Adamantium Will

– Battle Brothers with GK and SoB

– Once per game, activate one of the following special rules for the number of units equal to the turn num (so if it’s turn 3, 3 units can get Skyfire for instance): Skyfire, Tank Hunter, Monster Hunter, Counter Attack, or Hatred.

So the thought is that the chapter master, captain and command squad ride together up the field. The Clan Raukaan Chapter Master tanks wounds, looks out past the first one/two to captain, hopefully gets 3+ FnP from warlord table, regens next wound with IWND, etc. Coteaz and the Red Hunters dev squad setup behind the aegis. I’ll be able to get 4 lascannons to be tank, monster of flier hunters, with divination blessings by using the Chapter Tactics. Also, the versatility of the Red Hunters Chapter Tactics would allow me to give/(also give) these bonuses to the bike squad or command squad, which could be huge on turn 2 or further into the game when fliers arrive…

Thanks for your time,

Austin
