Top 40k Army Lists Motor City Mayhem Tournament
Thanks to Best Coast Pairings we are able to look back at the event as if we were there ourselves.
3rd Place: Colin McDade- Harlequins
2nd Place: Daniel Kennedy- Adeptus Mechanicus
1st Place: Brad Chester- Drukhari
Brad went for three separate patrol detachments, with the first led by a Succubus, providing Wych Cult Wound rerolls. Troops see a total of 10 Kabalite Warriors, which don’t benefit from the rerolls but are still great troops.
Elites see a total of 10 Incubi, who can force an enemy unit to fight last. Scourges are Fast Attacks that have decent weapons and a good amount of extra mobility.
Transports see 5 Raiders which have always been a core part of Drukhari lists, giving the list extra wounds and durability, while also gaining a ton of mobility.
The second detachment is also led by a Succubus. This time however there are 20 Wyches to take advantage of the wound rerolls, from the two Succubus in the list.
Elites see 10 Mandrakes join the list, who can deep strike in and once per game redeploy, making them very mobile. 20 Hellions provide some more ranged, and melee damage now in 9th. Plus they benefit from rerolls provided by the Succubus too.
The final Detachment is led by Drazhar, who is a solid character on his own, but can also buff nearby Incubi. With him are 15 Wracks, which are very cheap and flexible bodies. Finally, 5 more Incubi join the list to benefit from Drazhar’s aura.
Drukhari Victory- Congrats to Brad on the win!
Drukhari has won this time, but what do you think about all three of these most recent lists? Are these lists meta?
