The Nipplehammer list, surprisingly has quite a few of the elements I want in a list without giving much up for the bits I need. However, I don't like the list as Kirby sees it as I really want to include a unit of Vanguard Vet in the list still. So, that leads me to the Nipple Hammer Dave Edition.
Librarian- jump pack, shield of sanguinius, blood lance
Dante
3x Sanguinary Priests- 2x jump packs with lightning claws, 1x naked
5 Sanguinary guard- 3x angelus bolters, 2x infernus pistol, 1x powerfist
5 Sanguinary guard- 4x angelus bolters, 1x infernus pistol, 1x powerfist
5 Sanguinary guard- 4x angelus bolters, 1x infernus pistol, 1x powerfist
10 Assault Marines- 2x meltaguns, 1x thunderhammer
5 Vanguard Vets- SS/CCW, SS/CCW/meltabomb, 2x pistol/LC, 1x powerfist
5 Devestators- 4x missile launchers
5 Devestators- 4x missile launchers
What does this give me? I have roughly the same number of jumpers in the list, but by dropping a sanguinary guard unit and a vanguard unit, I can get 10 devestators with 8 missile launchers. I also replaced the missing jumpers a unit of 10 assault marines to give me some more melta threat. So, ultimately, I get about 10 more bodies and some additional melta threat. Otherwise, I think this list has the tools to draw out an opponent more and then drop in and take him down. I really need to get a game in to see how this will pan out, but I think it provides as many threats as the last list and goes a bit further by providing that extra long range threat.
What do you think? Is this an improvement over my last edition? You can see that list here.
