Havoc Brothers

Setting:	Grimdark Future
Games:	Grimdark Future, Grimdark Future: Firefight
Species:	Human
Version:	v3.1.0

Below you will find quick-play army lists for the Havoc Brothers from Grimdark Future.

Havoc Brothers of Generic (1000 pts)

This is a v3.1.0 list that can be built using the Combat Patrol: Chaos Space Marines box from Games Workshop, or any other models of your choice.

Stick the Champion in either melee Brothers unit. You're going to be stacking up spell tokens and spending them on granting the AP(+2) melee buff granted by Warp Passage or on Daemon Fog to soften up spam units if you don't need the AP to kill them once you charge. The Brute shouldn't generally need this; It may be difficult for your opponent to deal with at this point level already. Just point it towards whatever needs killing. It will.

The Support squad will just shoot whatever is most opportune. Try to abuse line-of-sight using buildings to line up your shots so only the unit you're shooting at will be able to see you back. 3 models and only Defense 3+ means they'll fall over the first time something appropriate hits them, so play them cagey.

-Stick the Champion in the melee Brothers unit. The bonus attack chances plays nicely with the Axe's Deadly rating, and there's not any other good units for them to join anyways. For your first few games (especially as a Being-Nice-To-Your-Opponent measure), use the Scout option of the Daemon rule and set it up for being able to charge something nice. Its got your most consistent anti-armor and can deal with other Defense 3+ and 2+ armies nicely, so don't be hesitant to run it into a vehicle, either, as most can't even fight back.

-Ranged unit of Havoc Brothers is pretty much just there to stand on an objective. Plasma Rifles chip wounds off armored units well enough, but the unit doesn't have a high damage output. The Support squad will just shoot whatever is most opportune. Try to abuse line-of-sight using buildings to line up your shots so only the unit you're shooting at will be able to see you back. 3 models and only Defense 3+ means they'll fall over the first time something appropriate hits them, so play them cagey.

-==Change Brothers (750pts)==
-This is a list that can be built using the '''''Combat Patrol: Thousand Sons''''' box from '''Games Workshop''', or any other models of your choice.
-Two units of birds will start on the table. Ensure they stay in cover for a -2 to-hit buff versus shooting or behind line-of-sight blocking terrain, as most hits will drop them.
-The ranged unit of Destroyers can be dropped on an objective closer to your side of the table and still be able to shoot further up the field. The melee unit (represented by the two models with staves and one of the others) with their Energy Fists (proxying with the staves) is your only real anti-tank capability, and should be dropped closest to whatever the largest armored threat is. The flamethrower is mostly points-fill, as it is somewhat wasted in a melee unit, but can be used to engage if nothing is in charge range with its 18" threat radius.
-Spell-wise, you should probably stick to Blaze or Inferno, depending on what would be more efficient into the target (Blaze for armored targets, Inferno for high model count targets). Breath of Change can be useful for that extra bit of movement if you need to close on a charge target or an objective, but is more situational (although easy to cast). The 6+ difficulty spells are best left ignored unless you are absolutely desperate to take a chunk out of a vehicle.

-== Plague Brothers (750pts) ==
-This is a v2.50 list you can build using a '''''Combat Patrol: Death Guard''''' box from '''Games Workshop''', or any other models of your choice.
-Destroyers are based on Warhammer Terminators, which don't come in this box, but you can approximate this unit easily using the Marine with the flail, the character model with scythe, and a Marine with the cleaver from the sprue. This game is explicitly model-agnostic, so no reason to limit what we build with the box. The Plague Flail is there to increase your melee effectiveness versus horde units, while still being alright versus more armored enemies, but if you dropped the Flail and kitbashed or proxied another model with a large melee weapon for a third model with Poison Gauntlet + Heavy Scythe, you could use the 20 points it frees up for a special weapon for the Plague Brothers. There are many options available, but a '''Fusion Rifle (12", A1, AP(4), Deadly(3))''' or '''Flamethrower (12", A6)''' for 15pts are both good options.
-If you want an all-melee army, you can also replace all Plague Brother weapons with '''Heavy Pistol (12", A1, AP(1))''' and '''CCW (A2)'''. If you did the above method to free up 20 points, you can have two models replace their Pistol and CCW (A2) with '''Dual Plague CCWs (A4, Poison)''' instead.

-''Undead'' - Whenever this unit takes a morale test, it is passed automatically. Then, roll as many dice as remaining models/tough in the unit, and for each result of 1-2 the unit takes one wound, which can’t be regenerated.
