Black Templars scored a spot as a new homebrew Warhammer 40k army list from the Melee at Shiloh!
Check out this excellent homebrew list that emerged in a tournament over the weekend that once again shows that sometimes it’s more about the general’s skill than what you play.
Top Warhammer 40k Homebrew Army List: Melee at Shiloh
Thanks to Best Coast Pairings, we can look back at the event as if we were all there ourselves.
Melee at Shiloh: Joshua Shirley – Black Templars 8th Place
Grimaldus and Helbrecht led Joshua’s top 8 Templars army list for some fantastic support and very solid bodies on top of it all. There is also an Emperor’s Champion for a melee threat and a Techmarine to help out on the side of vehicles.
Troops bring in 10 Infiltrators for some disruption with a good anti-deep-striking ability.
Elites start off with an Apothecary for heals, followed by two Redemptors dreads for some slight armor with great weapon options. There is also a 10-man hammer/shield Termie wall for some seriously durable and dangerous melee-centric units.
Heavy Support covers the list’s weakness by adding in some serious ranged threats with a five-man Eradicator squad to hit enemy armor and 2 Reaper tanks for armor and chaff clearing even further downrange!
