heres the list im plaing on using:

Skitarii demi century-300
tech-lord-100

600

skitarii demi century-300

Your generic ord majoris seems incomplete it should have two weapons not one.

Seems a very low activation count for a 4000 point game, especially against necrons.

Ill try and get pictures if I remember!!

Ideally I would have preffered more skitarii or some praetorians but atm I just want to use models that are painted so it gives me motivation to get the rest of the army painted.


Cheers
Matt

Ummm...that is not a legal Ordinatus Major. All Majors are equipped with 2 Battle Titans weapons of the same type.

Quote:
warlord titan-725
titan close combat weapon-25
landing pad-free
laser burner-free
barage missile -75
825

Why have a Landing Pad? Support Missiles already have Indirect Fire, which is the only thing Landing pad does? Plus why do you have its role so split? Is it a Support Titan with long range artillery or is it a Close Combat Titan?

Looking forward to hearing about the Battle either way tho. =)

so it has to have 2 barrage missiles???

i didnt read that it was indirect,i'll probabbly swap it for a vulcan mega bolter or something.
i dont like having my titan in one specific role,say for example it takes 2 turns to get into combat,thats 2 turns of an expensive unit not making its points back,my main purpose for it is combat,but i also want it to kill stuff on the way there.

Well if you really want a CC Titan that's cool, but I would take a Quake Cannon or Plasma Destructor instead of Support Missiles.

Maybe this:

Warlord Titan 950 Pts
-Quake Cannon
-Close Combat Weapon
-Laser Burner
-Corvus Assault Pod (Skitarii Demi-Century)
-Veteran Princeps
-Sacred Icon
-Carapace Multi-Lasers

Just finished my list when you updated. I don't know if you can have two of the same upgrades on a formation. As a general rules I think the answer is no. Some Armylist mention it specifically and other I think just assume it? I would like to get an official answer about that *Pokes ERC* So that's why i dropped two formations of Fire Support, plus you didn't have a SC yet. Forge Knights were good I guess but I just ran out of points.

thats a very nice list,my next addition is a cataphract company,and im currently winning some sentinels on ebay,the only thing i would change (and this is probably only me),but i would want some more infantry,wether its praetorians or just normal skitarii,it doesnt really matter.


just found out that the game has been cancelled for tonight anyway,slightly p***** off,but cant be helped i guess.


cheers

At only 10 activations at 4000 points you're probably a bit activation-light still. I'd not go lower than 12 activations at 4000 points, personally.
