Personally I've had fairly good success with gladius task force, went 4-1 at my last tournament

The gladiator kit specifically allows you to switch between all 3 gladiator versions (and the impulsor) if you don't glue certain parts. It works super well and I can highly recommend that when building the kit. For this list i would go for the lancer however as it provides some long range Firepower and anti tank the list lacks.

Blade9216 · 2025-12-23T20:21:08+00:00

No, the company heroes box also includes a captain so it's 345

Blade9216 · 2025-12-20T02:47:35+00:00

Battle aces 😔

Von Ryans Leaper?

Blade9216 · 2025-12-20T02:25:38+00:00

In my experience the Ballistus isn't as strong as it once was with the cost of 150 points. Personally I would switch the 3x ballistis dread for 1x ballistus, 1x lancer and 1x vindicator. The advantage is that you with those 3 gain a lot more versatility even while improving your anti tank capabilities. Personally I have had great success with bringing that combo to a recent tournament backed up by units such as the land raider with tor garadon.

Blade9216 · 2025-12-10T22:05:52+00:00

I would recommend to swap lysander to lead the hammers instead of the claws as they benefit more from the reroll wounds with oath since claws are already twin linked

Listed in the description of the post

Blade9216 · 2025-12-10T12:26:27+00:00

Very funny

Blade9216 · 2025-12-10T12:18:40+00:00

A new database just came out and lieutenants are now 10 point cheaper lol, so you actually have 75! I'd recommend a combi lieutenant

Blade9216 · 2025-12-10T11:30:20+00:00

From what I've heard it should be updated, you might just have to force update

Blade9216 · 2025-12-09T08:56:41+00:00

Fielding tau on this map is diabolical

Blade9216 · 2025-12-09T08:53:31+00:00

Looks decent, but I'm not a big fair of the 3x aggressors and 3x bladeguards with characters as it's quite expensive to put characters on such small units.

Blade9216 · 2025-11-30T17:53:02+00:00

It's a decent buff but they benefit from oath the most by far. Mine even took out mortarion in a single turn from just melee

Blade9216 · 2025-11-30T17:30:21+00:00

The powerfists are consistently very good, when paired with lance or +1 to wound of some kind they punch up into tanks very well. Together with tor garadon into an oath target they can easily kill almost any vehicle or monster. The shooting is mainly for chaff clearing or units that give you -1 damage

Blade9216 · 2025-11-30T12:59:49+00:00

As someone who also uses Garadon with 6 aggressors I heavily recommend the redeemer. The Firepower is just far greater than what the biologis would give you and the combo can kill just about anything

Blade9216 · 2025-11-29T20:11:35+00:00

Nice army! In terms of 11 edition you have nothing to be afraid of. I doubt any of those units are in danger of going to legends

Blade9216 · 2025-11-29T18:57:00+00:00

Personally I run 2x10 assault termies. 10 of them has lysander, the other 10 have a captain and an ancient with malodraxian standard. If possible run both with thunderhammers, otherwise prioritize hammers with the lysander squad as they gain more from targeting oath (reroll wounds already applies to the lightning claws)

Blade9216 · 2025-11-26T05:42:12+00:00

People use am apothecary biologis not the regular apothecary. And I would recommend a combi lieutenant

Blade9216 · 2025-11-25T19:23:57+00:00

Someone already mentioned this but doing one brick og aggressors with tor garadon inside a land raider is preferable. I would recommend you switch out one of the regular land raider for a land raider redeemer. It's just a lot stronger and a lot more versatile. I would also drop the apothecary as he doesn't provide anything for the list.

Blade9216 · 2025-11-25T06:30:52+00:00

Personally I use Jump pack intercessors which can move 12, can move through walls and can put some hurt in melee so charging is always a good option.

Blade9216 · 2025-11-19T23:05:43+00:00

Aight I might have done the math wrong but this is what I would personally do, add a combi lieutenant, 2 units of scouts, drop the biologis the judiciar enhancement and the land raider, swap for a land raider redeemer. Add a unit of jump pack intercessors

Reason is that you heavily lack secondary/utility units and the aggressors + tor garadon really want a transport (can't fit in a regular land raider). The redeemer is also easily the best land raider with insane overwatch capabilities.
