Contemptor cortus, Keres assault cannon - 150
Palatine blades x5, jump packs, 3x phoenix Spears -215
Troops:
Veterans x10, marksman, 2x plasma guns -190
Veterans x10, weapon master, 4x power swords, 1x claw, Sgt with artificer and Phoenix spear -240

This is a solid ZM list if you ask me - my only concern would be counter-assault; a lot of ZM from my experience is sort of a waiting game to see who's going to pop open a door and let the opponent charge through it - so having a unit that can withstand a charge (breachers) and let your own units counter attack afterwards is key. But, maybe your veterans with power weapons can be that unit? Maybe strip them down to 5 models with 4 power weapons and a sarge with phoenix spear, lose the volkite squad, and grab a unit of 10 breachers?

Makes sense, but from a fluff and tactics standpoint, EC rely on getting the charge. I feel like bleachers are very unfluffy (plus I don't have them). Definitely something to think about, so I'd probably have to keep my guns near the doors and My combat squads in open hallways.
In normal games, I'm putting those combat vets in an anvillus, so they're always getting the charge.
I could also swap them out for more shooty vets or could give flamers to the support squad. I do like Marksmen vets for ZM cause of outflank.

I also have some jetbikes, kakophani, or just plain tacticals I could build.
Essentially, the final list is my goal to build for the month. I already built that combat vet squad using mk3s. The claw is overpriced but it looks so dope.
Is the ZM part of that apocalypse game gonna have allies? Cause I can always rely on their breachers.

I have no idea - I have no information on the apoc game, other than I know its happening. The other dojo guys are running the show on that, I'm just a "come-with" guy.

Regardless of the Apocalypse game, I'd be down to play some 30k Zone Mortalis if we can get a table somehow set up.
One question about the list: does the delegatus have artificer armour?

Whoops, forgot to include it above. Definitely has AA. Fixed. I'm definitely down for that. I've made improvised zm tables using some of the fences/walls from the historical games and it worked. |

I'm 1000% down with that as well. Would like to see more of a 30k presence here in this group/on this site so people have the option of going through the Dojo group or just going straight to the CST group.
