Stabby Scouts list (1500)

[Michael Moser]

After reading the Bells article about scouts, it made me think. So here's a list.

I'm a fan of scouts I've been playing with some variants.  That being said do you think you'll be endanger from large blast from

Vehicles?

Thanks

I'm a little worried about that, but at least three squads would be entering from reserve and out flanking. With the anti-tank predator, I think the list can dispatch the pie-plates before all the squads are destroyed.

Terminators have jump packs? I haven't seen these on the field yet? Overall it puts a lot of troops on the field, are you worried about vehicles? I would probably drop the speeders and put in some devastators, but I understand people like to take them with scouts. Predator is going to be the first target for anybody that plays you probably unless you put the terminators on the board as a sacrifice. Overall interesting list. Curious for a play test of it against Crons, Tau, or a regular Marine army.

[Michael Moser]

No, they don't. Sorry about that.

I keep all my lists in Evernote, and at some point I decided to change all the entries from things like "Assault Squad - 10 men..." to "Assault Squad - 10 jump infantry." Apparently when I was making that change I saw "assault" in Terminator Assault squad and replaced the "men" with "jump infantry."

Vehicles don't worry me (too much). I have the pred and a melta-speeder, plus all the scouts have krak grenades, and many of the sergeants have melta bombs.

I think it will do well against tau, Eldar, and most space marine equivalents. Crons worry me though.

Have you ran this list yet? If so how did it do?

I still need to buy, like, 40 scouts. Maybe I'll proxy it sometime soon.

[Alex Hagerman]

That works, if you want to proxy test it before buying those let me know if you need a game.
