40K TACTICS: What’s In Your HQ?

Fritz here from you know where! When building out your list how much focus do you put on your HQ choice? What role should it have in your army? Conversion centerpiece? Mandatory force org choice? Fluff?

Consider another option- force multiplier.

Look at the focus and leverage of your army build and use your HQ to focus this like a lens.

Beyond sheer speed the focus of my Saim-Hann warhost is overwhelming firepower. Speed compliments this by allowing me to be where my opponent is weakest on the table and then open them up. My HQ choice further refines this through the support of two guided farseers.

In my Black Templar foot and dreadnought horde the Emperor’s Champion focusses the strength of that army though the prefered enemy vow blessing all my Templars and dreadnoughts with re-rolls when hitting in the assault.

Start with what your army “does”, shooty, assault, etc. and pour through those HQ choices and wargear to stack your build even better…

~Your mission, sound off in the comments with your HQ choice and how it is amplifying the strengths of your army!
