My Friend sent me this list he's working on. I think it is great!
Fluff wise, this is meant as a “you refuse to provide us with your
tech-relics, we take them by force!” kind of army. It’s mostly a
combination of IG, Marine and Witchhunters, and Eldar and Tau unit
thrown in for spice. Tactically, Zachariv joins the Support Robots,
the Overseer hand with the Heavy Artillery out of view, the Veteran
Skitarii infiltrate or drop (reroll scatter) & the Assault Robots and
Robot Microtitan come in on the Deployment Lander, placing them right
in prime killing position, or on a forward objective.
Although its not at all nessisary for Apoc, I divided the army in to
HQ, Elite, Troop, Fast and Heavy Support in order to follow the idea
of a traditional ‘balanced’ army.
As for modeling, here are some of the ideas I’ve come up with:
Zachariv should be almost more of a battle suit, perhaps with Ork like
muscles. The Mechanicus vat-grafting isn’t a clean as Space Marine
geneseed.
The Micro-titan is exactly as it sounds, a dreadnaught sized titan.
The Hurricane will be a TL-Tri-barrol bolter, with the chain fist
looking like a Titan CCW.
All the Skitarii have a guy in power armor leading them. The Robots
have a techpriest in their midst.
Broadsides should also look like mini-titans, but thinner and less
robust then the actual Micro-titan. Railguns will be replaced by
Advanced Lascannons.
