Next year I have signed up to go to Adepticon. I am playing in the Friendly 40K games and in the combat patrol. I have not seen the rules for combat patrols yet but I have heard that the friendly games are a 1500 list and they don't want any cheesy lists.
I have devised a snake based list that I don't think is to cheesy. Lets take a look:
HQ
Prime - Lash whip and bone sword, regeneration
Troops
10 Genestealers - Broodlord, toxin sacs
10 Genestealers - Broodlord, toxin sacs
9 ripper swarms - toxin sacs
Fast attack
5 Raveners - rending claws, devourers
5 Raveners - rending claws, devourers
3 Shrikes - lash whip bone sword toxin sacs
Heavy Support
Trygon Prime Bio electric pulse, regen
Nothing too bad. I don't have a Doom or a winged hive tyrant so no cheese there. I also didn't bring the hive guard so no cheesy S8, no cover save guns.
What it does have is a bunch of nom nom nom. If my guys can get into combat I should be ok.
Next, I want to convert all my figure to having a snake body. The raveners, rippers, and Trygon are already snakes so I am good there. For the shrikes I have some wings coming in from forge world that I will use on a ravener body so I they look similar to the new winged tyrant. My prime is going to be the red terror with different arms. which leaves the genestealers. I am going to attemt to use some greenstuff to make the bodies. I will post some pics when I get one done.
Any suggestions?
