So, I had the pleasure of playing against the "sons of shatner" doubles adepticon list last night. I took a very unoptimized and fun 2000pt DE list, and although there were a few times when I was in the game ultimately it was over pretty quickly when some key rolls did not go my way. Anyhow, I hope to play again, but this time I decided I would take a highly optimized Venom Spam list. One of the few armies that does very well in a tournament environment, especially when there is a good amount of terrain on the table. Anyhow:
List 1 (1000pts, takes the elites float)
Heamonculus- Liquifier

3 Trueborn, 3 blasters
Venom Dual Cannon

3 Trueborn, 3 blasters
Venom Dual Cannon

10 Warriors, Splinter Cannon, Blaster, Syb
Raider, Flicker Field

5 Warriors Blaster
Venom Dual Cannon

5 Warriors Blaster
Venom Dual Cannon

3 Reaver Jetbikes with a Heatlance

Ravager Flicker Field, Night Shield

List 2 (1000pts, takes Heavy float)

Heamonculus Liquifier

4 Trueborn, 3 blasters, 1 shredder (odd i know but points worked out)
Venom one cannon

5 Warriors Blaster
Venom dual cannon

5 Warriors Blaster
Venom dual cannon

5 Warriors Blaster
Venom dual cannon

6 Reaver Jetbikes 2 blasters

Ravager Flicker field and night shield

Ravager Flicker field and night shield

Total for the two lists is 2000pts, and I cant wait to try it out. I know that it would be very monotonous to play, but if you want to win, and feed of the fear of your enemies, a list like this would make them quiver!

Cheers!

I would honestly drop the second haemonculos if you can, the reason being that Haemonculai only do so much for your army, perhaps adding one pain token apiece. This doesn't do much to a shooting army (though it can do a lot for a CC army) except for cheap HQ adds. The best way you can add to your 2k is to add nightshields and flickerfields to everything. This seems like a heavy investment, but it makes alpha strike and fast moving units like blasterborn unable to hit you on turn 2. Removing the threat of Plasma, bolters, and melta from your game is a huge step forward in ensuring that your units stay at their maximum throughout the first 2-3 turns. And by turn 4, there is no good reason why they can't win the game for you at this point level.

As a doubles list I can't have only one HQ. Its two 1000pt lists.

So here is the most spammed up hyper competetive WAAC list I can think of. Not sure if/how you would play this one, but it's a Venom spam list and it makes vicious use of the soubled force org to win (in a rather obvious way).

HQ 65
Haemo, shattershard

Elite 183
4 Trueborn, 4 blasters
Venom, cannons, nightshields

Troops 375
5 Warriors, blaster
Venom, cannons
5 Warriors, blaster
Venom, cannons
5 Warriors, blaster
Venom, cannons

Heavy 375
Ravager, nightshield, flickerfields
Ravager, nightshield, flickerfields
Ravager, nightshield, flickerfields

Take two and call me after the tournament.

in the adepticon format each team member takes:
1hq
1 troop (up to 3)
and then up to 1 of each- FA, HS and Elites.

Then there are 3 floaters(1 FA 1 El, 1 HS) each player can pick one, but it can't be the same as another player in the same team, therefore one player can take the extra FA (for 2 FA) or an extra elite (for 2 elites).. this means that when you are paired together to make a doubles team each team has a single FoC together there abouts.
