I am full of anticipation for this weekend. We are going to play a two on one game. 2500 points of Orks will be going against 1250 Dark Angels and 1250 points of Sororitas. I last played those orks with 1500 points of my Dark Angels and was slaughtered. Deathwing can be fun but they just did not have the numbers to overcome the horde in any sort of battle of attrition. Every terminator lost was a significant part of the whole and it just spiraled down quickly.
With this in mind, I am thinking that a mix of Marines and Sisters will be a good fit. They compliment each other well. I do not normally tailor a list to the opponent but this will be a flamer heavy army since I will be intentionally playing support for the Dark Angels.
On with my expectations.
For the Orks, Gazgull Thraka will be leading the waaagh. He will bring lots of defcopters I'm sure. Probably a wall of killer kans as well. This is going to be a 2500 point Ork list; they will fill up their half of the board completely!
My partner will bring Dark Angels, but I do not know what types. I have seen his army once but that was with them in storage sitting on a shelf. I think it will be more of a mechanised Space Marine army and not a wing army, but I could be mistaken. What I remember seeing were marines and tanks.
The Sisters will consist of:
Saint Celestine
2X Battle Sister squad with Flamer, Heavy Flamer and Combi-melta in a Rhino
2X Dominion with two Meltaguns and Combi-flamer in a Heavy Flamer equiped Immolator
Seraphim Squad with two, twin flamers and a plasma pistol on the Superior.
2X Exorcists
