# CONCEPT

All comers list leaning into resilience, speed and performing actions without giving up efficiency.
Quick options for scramblers and forward units for an early start to Engage-OAF.

# HQ HIGHLIGHTS

Selections based primarily on defensive buffs and protection.

* Captain on Bike 2+ 4++
  * 5++ aura [Relic]
  * Perform Action and Shoot [WLT]

* Jump Libby
  * Neural Void: -1 Attack, Force charge on closest.
  * Mantle of Shadow: Unit cannot be shot if it doesn't shoot or charge.
  * Fortified With Contempt: 5+++ on unit.
  * The Beacon Angelis: Pick up & Deploy within 2" [Relic]

* Chief Apoth
  * Regen CP on 5+ for each spent. (Ultramarines)
  * The Tome of Ectoclades: select one datasheet, reroll wounds.

# PLAYS & SYNERGIES

* Indomitus units can tank on the Heavy Intercessors to help plasma get more turns unanswered.
  * +1 saves for 1 CP (2+ and 1+ in cover).

* Leveraging Mantle of Shadow / Neural Void - who will be fed.
  * Outriders, Phobos units, then Company Vets will soak for expensive KTs in case of Mantle of Shadow and Neural Void as they are forward.
    * Example: Mantle of Shadow on Plasma Inceptors to get them in position safely without taking shots.
    * Early EngageOAF Points.

  * Company Veterans
    * Cheap

  * Infiltrators:
    * Helix Gauntlet: "Once per turn, the first time a saving throw is failed for the bearer's unit, the Damage characteristic of that attack is changed to 0."

  * 5x Outriders in for Ob sec, 20" move, shutdown charges, forward screening.
    * Pop WS tactic, Advance and charge, 20 wounds @ T5 that need to be dealt with.
    * If in combat, they can't be shot, therefore preventing shooting if only other visible unit is one with Mantle on it.
    * 1CP -1 hit.
    * 37 Astartes Chainsword attacks on the charge, 1CP to auto-wound on 6s.

* Special issue ammo on DW Vets makes them AP -3 3d shots some long-range anti-elite.

# CONCERNS

* Enough Damage Output?
* Is there enough resilience, a Deathwing list might just be the brick wall needed.
* Plasma Inceptors love Chaplains for +1 hit & wound.

# TODO

* Matchup specific maths & tweaks.
* Early Game plans.

# Other Ideas

* Primary Dominate and Denial: Double Ob Sec Bike Spam and Reiver LT to disable Ob Sec.
* Max Fighty: Smash Characters (capt on bike w/ master crafted invuln ignore relic and Slaplain on bike) and Max out KT Wound Rerolls BGVs.
* Mid-Table Castle Shooting Planform with dive bombing units + Dreads.  Use DA WLT max out turns in desired Doctrines.
