Kantor Revisited #2: Kantorwing
Posted on February 21, 2011 by Stelek
So, another ‘way’ to use Kantor I’ve not explored fully before, is using Sternguard for a less obvious role.

Counter to their ‘normal’ modus operandi, this one eschews their main benefits (combis and special ammo) for a perhaps better role.

Let’s take a look.

2000 Pts – Space Marines Roster

1 Chapter Master Pedro Kantor, 175 pts

9 Sternguard Veteran Squad, 300 pts (Storm Bolter x9)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Storm Bolter x1)

9 Sternguard Veteran Squad, 300 pts (Storm Bolter x9)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Storm Bolter x1)

9 Sternguard Veteran Squad, 305 pts (Storm Bolter x9)
1 Sergeant (Melta Bombs; Bolt Pistol; Storm Bolter x1)

4 Scout Squad, 85 pts (Missile Launcher)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Sniper Rifle)

4 Scout Squad, 85 pts (Sniper Rifle x3; Missile Launcher)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Sniper Rifle)

2 Attack Bike Squad, 100 pts (Multi-Melta x2)

2 Attack Bike Squad, 100 pts (Multi-Melta x2)

2 Attack Bike Squad, 100 pts (Multi-Melta x2)

4 Devastator Squad, 150 pts (Missile Launcher x4)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Bolter)

4 Devastator Squad, 150 pts (Missile Launcher x4)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Bolter)

4 Devastator Squad, 150 pts (Missile Launcher x4)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Bolter)

Total Roster Cost: 2000

Notes: So, that’s…30 Storm Bolters? All on scoring units.

Yes please.

Sure, there are only 3 melta units, but there are 3 missile dev units as well.

Everyone is a specialist in this army, they have a clear role–and if you get disembarked, guess who dies horribly?

Yes, that’s right, you do.

Sternguard have one serious issue. They usually can’t react or retreat once they get out of their Rhinos. They get out, and they die after hurting something.

Well, not so in this army.

You sit at 24 and shoot anything up that gets disembarked by your other shooty elements. 14 missiles a turn isn’t bad. 6 multimeltas isn’t bad. 6 scoring units with 5 storm bolters apiece? Definitely not something people want to see.
