Brothers Grim Tournament April 24th: List I Actually took

So the list I posted a few weeks ago wasn't the list I ended up using in the tournament that I posted the second game from already. I ended up using an expanded version of the list from the Battle Standard Tournament.

Vulkan - 190

Master of the Forge - 100

Dreadnought - Multimelta, heavy flamer, drop pod - 150

Dreadnought - Multimelta, heavy flamer, drop pod - 150

Dreadnought - Multimelta, drop pod - 140

Dreadnought - Multimelta, drop pod - 140

Dreadnought - Multimelta, drop pod - 140

Dreadnought - Multimelta, drop pod - 140

Tactical Squad - Multimelta, flamer, combi-flamer, powerfist, drop pod - 240

Tactical Squad - Multimelta, flamer, combi-flamer, powerfist, drop pod - 240

Tactical squad - Multimelta, melta, combi-melta, drop pod - 220


The list really blew a lot of people's minds. They were mind boggled by just how many drop pods it really is. The 9 pods make a real mess of the board and restrict movement in the areas where you drop them. Even if there is space to move between them it restricts enemy movement because they cant come within 1 inch of them during the movement phase.

Also in objective missions they can contest objectives like in the battle report I already posted. And strangely enough in the kill point mission that I will post later they weren't that much of a liability because my opponent was too busy trying to kill all of the dreadnoughts that he didn't even kill a single one of the pods... now I'm not sure that in particular will always happen but it was a very surprising thing.
