I've gone through and made some points adjustments across the board to help remedy some of the comments the ERC had with the list. Since these are some significant point adjustments, I'm bumping the list to version 2.1.
Changes:
Minorus chassis dropped by 25 points.
Minorus coy can add an additional minorus for 100 points.
Majoris chassis dropped by 50 points.
Ordinatus gain Fearless
Crusaders, Avengers, Chimedons, Demicentury, Sagitarii, and Secutor upgrade dropped by 25 points
Colossus and Magos drop by 50 points
Carapace Landing Pad to 50 points
Quake Cannons +25 points to 100 points.
Support Missile +25 points to 75 points
Avengers gain +1 Lascannon per unit.
Ordinatus Golgotha (hellfire missiles) stats replaced with 3bp MW, Slow Firing, Indirect, Uses Orbital Bombardment Template. Cost increases +50 points to 200 points
Rationale:
The minorus point drop is twofold. First, it makes the corvus option 100 points which is comparable to a gorgon in price and function. Second, it makes it frees up a few points to take some of the better titan weapons. They tended to be a bit squishy, so I've adopted fearless for them and the majoris from the EUK list to make the point cost worth it.
Ordinatus Minrous Coy can also upgrade to a third minorus. This was originally dropped due to the Quake +CLP combo, but the changes to the CLP we made a while back mitigate some of the issue and this will help the formation have more staying power and damage output consistent with AdMech being a pretty shooty army.
Majoris drops by 50 points. It's always been a subpar option and this might make it more attractive.
Quite a few formations saw 25 point drops. Individually this won't have a huge impact on list building, but it should add up enough to add a formation or take a stronger one.
Infantry and chimedons in partiuclar got a drop. This was to make the net cost of taking Chimedons about 50 points less than before and to bring the infantry down a bit in price overall. Prior cost for a Demi-century upgrades with Chimedons was 450 and that should now be 400 which is comperable to a IG mechanized company.
Last of all, the magos and Colossus get a 50 point drop. For the Magos, I'm not sure he was ever worth 100 points, but I'd figured that tournament use would quickly hash it out. I've dropped him to 50 since he's basically only there for the reroll. Colossus gets a 50 point drop too. I've never found this formation to be lacking personally, but it will hopefully help to reduce some of the barrier to taking them.
Thoughts?
