Hello all, I'm preparing to enter a 1700 point 40k tournament soon and I need to decide on a list. Right now I have two lists in mind but cannot decide which to use.
List A:
HQ:
Yarrick
Primaris Psyker
- mastery level 1
Primaris Psyker
- mastery level 1
Troops:
Infantry Platoon:
PCS
- flamers x3
Infantry Squad x4
- Lascannons x4
Infantry Platoon:
PCS
- flamers x2
Infantry Squad x4
- Lascannons x4
Fast Attack:
Vandetta
Vandetta
Heavy Support:
Manticore
Manticore
Wyvern x2
List B:
Tank Commander
- Punisher
- Pask
- Heavy Bolter Sponsons
- Dozer Blade
- Relic Plating
- Exicutioner
- Plasma Cannon Sponsons
- Dozer Blade
Primaris Psyker
- mastery level 1
Primaris Psyker
- mastery level 1
Primaris Psyker
- Mastery Level 1
Troops:
Veterans
- Plasma x2
- Chimera
Veterans
- Plasma x2
- Chimera
Fast Attack:
Vandetta
Vandetta
Heavy Support:
Manticore
Manticore
Wyvern x2
My plan for List A is PCSs hop in the vandettas and will eventually go after backfield objectives. Yarrick joins one 40 man blob and issues orders to them both. The psykers float between the blobs and manticores giving prescience to who ever needs it most.
My plan for List B is two psykers sit back with the manticores and the other follows pask. The chimeras and pask sit back and protect manticores and wyverns until objectives need captureing or vandettas come on and need back up.
List A Pros:
- High Body Count
- Long Range Fire Power
List B Pros:
- AV 14 Warlord
- High Mobility
List A Cons:
- Low Mobility
- Big Targets for Biovores and the likes
List B Cons:
- Chimera Die Fast
- Short Range on Pask and Troops
So here is my dilemma, do I go for Pask or Yarrick? I'm afraid Pask's entourage will die off too fast, but Yarricks list is some what of a sitting duck. Let me know which you would choose and any changes I could make. Thank you very much.
