Hey im new to the forum and new to the world of 40k. I have a 3000 point IG army and im mainly interested in apocalypse. Has anyone one on the forum built a Sentinel army? The Emperors talons formation makes it really cheap to buy them.

I posted this in a other form but I'll put it here to for you.
I have actually put together a Sentinal Based 1500pt list. You can have a total of 12 Sentinals in one army. Use Stormtroopers as troops and the Sentinals as the fire power. It probbly won't win any battles, but for me it is more about the models anyway.
Check out the Tank form for more info on Sentinels.

I love the idea of a sentinel based army, that much mobile firepower would be truely frightening.
My only comment is that perhaps this is not the best Appocolypse army, the shear number of massive blast templates, and low armour value will quite likely have them all destroyed in short order. Just a thought. They will all die eventually anyway, but I can see 1 Baneblade cannon taking out several in 1 turn and that is only 1 weapon that it has.

It would look really cool as it got blown to smithereens. Sorry for the blunt comment, but sentinels don't last long in regular games, let alone Apocalypse. If you want to, though, go for it.

I've actually had really good luck with my sentinels. They usually end up being a target but thats the same with any vehicle. To me its about the deployment and giving your sentinels the back up. My gf plays dark eldar so i'm used to having vulnerable vehicles cause of the dark lance dropping all armor values to 12.
