So this is a reactionary list to the scenarios we will see at the Ard Boyz Prelims. 2 of the 3 scenarios will essentially be annihilation so I have chosen a mix of units that will be devastating damage inflicters and hard as hell to kill. I've designated the list "Fountain" in honor of the recently successful "Garden". Garden's HQ's would be a drag in game 3 and I feel a new list was called for. Reno has a tough crowd of hardcore players and getting into Ard Boyz Semi-Finals will not be easy.

The Stormraven and Land Raider combo are an amazing 1, 2 Punch that will sure to leave the enemy reeling if delivered properly. Lemartes and fallen flock to kill any infantry silly enough to be in charge range and the Dread will do his thing as always(fleet, Furious Charge, 5 attacks, WS5, Str10, ignores stun/shaken) and the Terminators can make a mockery of even the heaviest armor squadrons(12 Str9 attacks with re-rolls to hit). throw in a couple of Preds to shoot from range and a couple of rhinos full of troops to hold objectives in game 2 and a bike squadron for fun...you've got yourself the "Fountain".

I don't know which list I will take but the Blood Angels feel better at this point...Hmmph, who knows?...! TILL NEXT TIME.....PLAY WELL, ROLL BETTER!!!

  1. Can't the assault squads be combat squad'd?

  2. Yes, they(assault squads) can be CS'd. They cannot come in with rhino if they choose to do so. So you'd have to roll for reserves on rhino and unit separately.
