I've seen some Dark Angel Deathwing armies popping up after the new codex, and they can be a problem with that stupid Terminator Armour (I only hate it because our best save is 4+). I have made a list that should counter it well, or at least the ones I've seen. Everyone likes the Deep Strike that Terminators have, and that can be a problem for our ships. So I thought that if we Deep Striked as well, it would make our day easier when Terminators aren't appearing and blowing everything to hell (excuse my language, of course).
So here is the list:
Duke Sliscus, The Serpent
Drazhar, Master of Blades
9 Warriors
- Raider (Splinter Racks, Night Shields, Torment Grenade Launcher, Disintegrator Cannon)
10 Warriors
- Splinter Cannon
- Raider (Splinter Racks, Night Shields, Torment Grenade Launcher, Disintegrator Cannon)
10 Warriors
- Splinter Cannon
- Raider (Splinter Racks, Night Shields, Torment Grenade Launcher, Disintegrator Cannon)
4 Trueborn
- 4 Blasters
- Venom (Night Shields)
5 Wyches
- Haywire Grenades
- Venom (Night Shields)
4 Incubi
- Klaivex with Demiklaives
- Venom (Night Shields)
Ravager (Night Shields)
Ravager (Night Shields, 3 Disintegrator Cannons)
Voidraven (2 Implosion Missiles)
You may have noticed that the theme of this is a lot of AP2 shots, along with AP2 combat. It was weird not using Wyches, but Terminators just chew through those anyway.
The Duke will be with the 9 Warriors, and Drazhar will be with the Incubi. Everything will Deep Strike, which is risky, but should work just fine. I want the Deathwing army to go first, just so his army Deep Strikes first and I can get the first shot.
So, thoughts? Opinions?
