    Default The Retribution Brick?

    This is just a theory machine idea I was playing with on iBodger...

    Vyros
    - Banshee
    - Discordia
    - Sphinx
    - Wish Nailer

    2x Arcanist
    Full Sentinels + UA + Soulless
    eEiryss
    Artificer
    Battle Mages
    Magister

    Throw IR on Sentinels. Brick them up around Discordia, place the Artificer behind Discordia and throw up Force Barrier. All the other models in the army also have Force Barrier.

    Pretty RPS'y, but it should work for the right match up. You'll do well against most shooting lists, and most melee lists will tear you a new one. If that's what you're going for (SR second list?), that's not horrible.

    Artificer won't be able to keep up though. Your opponent will have tempo so you don't have much reason not to be running until you've closed range.

    So Sents would be immune to blast, Def 14 vs range, arm 21 vs range and have -5 range on spells cast on them. that's nasty VS a gun line and Khador shooty jack list.

    I play a vyros list like that but with a griffon and invictors, and the pain knight instead of battlemages, and i always have corho with vyros, but it kinda works, the thing to beware is casters like emadrak or pirusk, where all their stuff can beat up on armor with ease, that can be really frustrating with an army like this, as there isn't just 1-2 things you need to eliminate to have vyros and your jacks be safe.

    I find invictors to be awesome with vyros you can use them to fill up your feat in the games where your feat actually does something, which can be pretty handy.
