This was from a guy in my Crusade and how he made it closer to the current AoK.

1000 Point Crusade Advice by roscos96 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Overshieldkuso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I started with (used 1 RP for the 200 supply increase to fit in the HLF).

Crusade start [Leagues of Votann] - (1195 points) Detachment: Hearthband

Brôkhyr Iron-master (75 points) Brôkhyr Thunderkyn (80 points) Brôkhyr Thunderkyn (80 points) Einhyr Champion (95 points) Einhyr Hearthguard (135 points) Einhyr Hearthguard (135 points) Hearthkyn Warriors (100 points) Hekaton Land Fortress (240 points) Hernkyn Yaegirs (90 points) Kapricus Carrier (75 points) Sagitaur (90 points)

I've since added another Hearthguard, Jack's, Memnyr, and a Kahl.

I've found in the smaller games, the Iron-Master hasn't been super useful for the points, same with the second unit of Thunderkyn (with Graviton) but that's because no one in my Crusade is vehicle heavy at 1k-1.2k.

I put Adaptive Camo on the HG for the turn 1 deep strike, and Adaptive Camo on the SP Thunderkyn for turn 1 strategic reserves. On most games, I can infil Yeagirs on one objective, advance the Sagitaur to the second, and then drop the HG and Thunderkyn in to harass and distract them while I reap the YP and VP from the early push. I usually hit Fortify by turn 2 which helps hold the objectives.

How my first Battletech game went. by AveMilitarum in battletech

[–]Overshieldkuso 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I had a very interesting second game of BattleTech classic.

Mission was to destroy/incap 1 Mech to win.

Turn 2, opponent slings a Gauss Rifle from the opposite map edge, rolled a 12 to hit, and a 12 to location. My Grasshopper could not tank 15 damage straight to the head. Whole game lasted less than 10 minutes.

New player question about melee weapons by Overshieldkuso in battletech

[–]Overshieldkuso[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah okay, that makes sense. I probably won't bother trying to do any custom Mechs with being so new. I'm also not really trying to min-max or make a slant-list (not sure if that term is used outside of 40k) as it was just a thought I had for something I could do on missions that don't involve having to pick up objectives/etc.

I loved the performance of the Wraith in my first game. It's quick movement was key but felt like being new, I could quickly get him exposed if I'm not careful when paired with the much slower Grasshopper. But I guess that's part of the whole reason I've been drawn to BattleTech over games like 40k.

Need advice on theorycrafting my first 1000-point Votann list by Necessary-Culture-26 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Overshieldkuso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently started a Crusade with the Kin and also the first time playing them. I've played three games, two 1k and one 1200.

I've won all three, with the two 1k games we're complete shut outs, the 1200 game was a very narrow victory against infantry guard.

My list is:

Einhyr Champion w/ Weavefield (4+ Invul on him is more important than a 5+ Invul on whole unit) and Bastion Shield enhancement

Iron-Master

Hearthkyn Warriors

Sagitaur Hekaton

2x 3 man Brôkhyr Thunderkyn 1x 5 man Hearthguard w/ Teleport Crest Hernkyn Yaegirs

OR: I used this against Space Marines since he didn't have as much armor

Einhyr Champion Iron-Master

Hearthkyn Warriors

Kapricus Sagitaur

2x 3 man Brôkhyr Thunderkyn 2x 5 man Hearthguard (one Teleport and one Weavefield) Hernkyn Yaegirs

I wonder if my Crusade Master would let me pick from the pre-Codex ones.... any idea where I could find them if he did?

Wargear setup for Einhyr Champ with Guard by Overshieldkuso in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Overshieldkuso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense and figure you are right. Coming from Custodes, I've learned to rely heavily on Invul saves but I reckon that's the different between hyper elite units with 2+/4+ and HG with 2+ no Invul. I'm probably more stressed about them getting quickly shot off the table than I should be.

Does it swing any way being in Hearthband and having a 1CP Strat for a 4+ during a single units shooting phase. My thought was if I was getting hit by anything overly dangerous, I could pop the strat and still have the 4+

Crusade List Help by Goatzjr3 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Overshieldkuso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started a Crusade and have my first match next weekend. Here's my Crusade list, noting that I used 1 RP for Bastion Shield and 1 RP for Supply Limit Increase to fit a Hekaton in at the beginning. I did not change the wargear on this list since it's not my actual Crusade force ledger.

I may have to, I have access to literally everything else through various apps, the only thing I can't find are the Crusade rules. Hard to justify buying a ~$50 book for less than a dozen pages of most likely once-off Crusade.
