Recommended 1k List!

Hey everyone!

Had a blast playing this list yesterday with a couple of friends, so I thought I’d post it here for anyone wanting some inspiration or just being curious! I am fairly new, and I play with ppl that are new too, mistakes was most likely made, but overall I’d say we were pretty good on the rules of everything - so please take that into consideration. (List at the bottom of the post)

Played 3 (1k) games of 40K: 2 against Adepta Sororitas. 1 against Death Guard.

I scored 2 wins in total, (1 AS / 1 DG).

The game against DG was a mixed one, my LR died to his first shooting phase (my bad in the placement/evaluation of cover and underestimating the hard hitting enemy models, but it was scary and epic seeing the damage being dished out! Haha). But after that I managed to get even with some good dice rolls with my Dorn and Gaunts Ghost shenanigans. The player didn’t have time to finish the game, so it ended in the end of turn 3. At that time, I was bellow in points, but had withered the DG army down quite a bit. So I believe I would have been able to catch up and pass DG in points by the end due to the amount of units I had left vs DG - (unless some well played secret mission or something from the DG player).

Both of the games against AS we’re really close calls with the last one (loss) being a grind (a fun one though). Both of us brought hard hitting units and lots of fun abilities. Damn that cannoness and her rerolls and plus to hit/wound.. took down my LR (10w) in one fight phase while her being on just 1w haha.. she’s the MVP!

What will I change with it? What felt ”meh”?

Honestly, the only ”disappointment” was the FOB - I haven’t had a good experience with them this far.. tried the bombast multiple times and the Rockets a few times. I’ve always rolled poorly with them, whenever I get 6 or 12 attacks on both weapons, I roll bellow 4/5 on almost all of them etc. At most, I’ve been able to kill 4-8 sisters or Poxwalkers in a whole game.. which isn’t the worst, it’s just that they don’t pack as big of a punch as I’d hope given the cost in points I pay for fielding them.

Replacement: I’m thinking of bringing Kasrkins instead, getting a good balance of damage and mission focus.. + a good combo with Reinforcements (-1 CP from Ursula Creed). Alternatively Bullgryns (mauls), getting something to to dish out damage on close range and forcing the enemy to focus on them instead of something more important.

Anyone got any recommendations or thoughts on those 110p and where I could spend them if not Kasrkins or Bullgryns?

Or maybe some thoughts on strengths/weaknesses on this list? Anything you’d change?
