Random Khan List

Hey folks!  Today I wanted to share a random Kor'sarro Khan list I've been thinking of lately.  Not sure how well it would work- feel free to tell me about it!  Here's the list:


Marine list at 1850 points:


Kor'sarro Khan w/ Moondrakkan

10x Tactical Marines w/ Melta, Combi-melta, Multi-melta, Rhino
10x Tactical Marines w/ Melta, Combi-melta, Multi-melta, Rhino
10x Tactical Marines w/ Melta, Combi-melta, Multi-melta, Rhino
3x Space Marine Bikes w/ 2x Melta, Combi-melta, 1x Attack Bike w/ Multi-melta
3x Space Marine Bikes w/ 2x Melta, Combi-melta, 1x Attack Bike w/ Multi-melta
3x Space Marine Bikes w/ 2x Flamer, Combi-flamer

10x Assault Marines w/ Power Fist, 2x Flamers
3x Attack Bikes w/ Multi-meltas
3x Attack Bikes w/ Multi-meltas

So, the general idea is to outflank everything.  Everything has the ability to outflank, show up where they're not wanted, and melta/flamer something.  The Assault Marines go with Khan, generally, and get Furious Charge/hit and run.  They're mostly anti-horde, though there are other elements of anti-horde in this list as well.  Mostly, showing up and annoying people everywhere is the key, and having 6 scoring units will help with that as well.  Lots of speed, combined with a fair amount of T5 to deal with.

I dunno if it's suited to tournaments- what does everyone think?  Too over the top weird/uncompetitive?  Just something I was playing around with.

As a sidenote, Khan makes Bike Squads (regular bikes, not Attack Bikes) troops if he's on Moondrakkan, right?  If so, I can't find the option in Army Builder to do that, which is dumb.  Not sure how to change that.  If I'm wrong... feel free to tell me.

Lol, I keep thinking I should add Vulkan to make the flamers/melta better.  Stupid me, but I still can't shake it :-p

Heh, if nothing else, it's unconventional, right?

If your going to run two special characters then Tigurius works really well with all the outflanking.

I like the overall list but a few plasma's in there will be good, your a bit ott on melta atm.

Heh, thanks for the feedback. I wasn't really saying that I was actually considering Vulkan in this list, since that would negate Khan's outflanking ability, which is why I built the list in the first place.

I just feels like Vulkan should be in there with the amount of Flamers/Meltas in there. That's all :-p

I found when I was playing with Khan that while Tac+Rhino's sounded like a good idea, they are easily dealt with coming in from the side of the board.

To be honest, I haven't cracked a decent Khan list. Outflank is too hit-and-miss to really work "perfectly" in game

Hell, when you are talking dedicated transports, nothing says "oh hi guyz!" like outflanking Land Raiders with termies in them :)

Otherwise, it could definitely work.
