Adeptus Mechanicus - Space Marines


Ok so a while ago I put up an Ad Mech list about lots of techmarines.

Here is how it would work:

To repeat, the list was:

Master of the Forge - Servo Harness 100
2 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 85

Master of the Forge - Servo Harness 100
2 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 85

Tech Marine - Servo Harness - 85
2 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 85

Tech Marine - Servo Harness - 85
2 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 85

Tech Marine - Servo Harness - 85
2 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 85

Tactical Squad - 185
Plasma Gun - Plasma Cannon

Tactical Squad - 180
Melta Gun - Plasma Cannon

Tactical Squad - 210
Rhino, Melta Gun

Tactical Squad - 210
Rhino, Melta Gun

Tactical Squad - 210
Rhino, Melta Gun

Tactical Squad - 205
Flamer, Drop Pod

Thunderfire Cannon - 100
1 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 40

Thunderfire Cannon - 100
1 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 40

Thunderfire Cannon - 100
1 Plasma Cannon Servitors - 40

2500 Points

With this army built to 2500 points you are simply torrenting of fire the crap out of everything.

The rhinos act as your forward guard, while everything else blows everything up.

You are pumping out (Per Turn mind you)
15 S7 AP2 Blasts,
and 12 Variable Blasts that can do much, (make people barely move, ignore cover or just cause damage.)
Plus you've got 3 vanguard melta guns to sit in their mobile bunkers and pop tanks or whatever else.

It just gets nasty at that point.

You've got enough techmarines to keep all the servitors in line for the entire game and in the end all you really have to worry about is your lack of mobility. though when you consider that all you have to do is shake your opponents vehicles to keep them from shooting for a turn, you have plenty of power to do just that.

Getting into CC should not be a problem since your techmarines just have to survive to their I level and they can kill just about anything, and with 3 squads of marines sitting back they should have no problem doing just that.

Stir, Drink and Enjoy!

  1. Wow! This looks like a hardhitting army. It'd be cool to try something like that.

    For know, I'll just enjoy the drink and think of the faces my opponents will make.
