The New League

For the Spring League my local shop is doing something a little different.

First week 400 Points Combat Patrol rules. Last 2 weeks 2000 points.

I'm planning on starting a force and then building it/painting it as the weeks progress. Keeping the Core and adding to it.



For those unfamiliar with combat patrol here are the rules

FORCE RESTRICTIONS:
- Armies must be no more than 400 points
- You must have one Troops choice
- You may have up to one HQ choice, but no more than one. (Yes, this means you don't have to take a HQ if you don't want to)
- You may spend remaining points from anywhere in the codex.
- No models can have more than 2 Wounds
- No special/named characters
- No 2+ saves
- No vehicles with an Armour Value greater than 33. This is calculated by adding the Front, Side and Rear armour values (counting side only once).
- No ordnance weapons.

In addition, the following modifications to the Force Organization chart have been made:
- Maximum of 1 HQ Choice.
- Maximum of 4 Troops Choices.
- Maximum of 2 Elites Choices.
- Maximum of 2 Fast Attack Choices.
- Maximum of 2 Heavy Support Choices.

Here is what I am thinking at this early stage

400 Point Army - going with basic more shots the better idea
Tactical Squad - Plasma Gun, Missile Launcher
Tactical Squad - Flamer, Heavy Bolter
Razor Back - Storm Bolter
