The First and the Last

I wanted to explore some other concepts in deckbuilding for Conquest and one that my buddy Matt showed me is "first planet", where you always want to be battling at the first planet. I absolutely cribbed some ideas from him, and with Ol' One Eye, made this:

"Old One Eye"  (The Great Devourer)
Stalking Lictor  (synapse) (The Great Devourer)

Army (31)
3  Spreading Genestealer Brood  (The Laughing God)

3  Focal Warrior  (Slash and Burn)
3  Growing Tide  (The Laughing God)
4  Lurking Hormagaunt  (The Great Devourer)
3  Soaring Gargoyles  (Boundless Hate)
3  Erupting Aberrants  (Overrun)
3  Volatile Pyrovore  (The Great Devourer)
1  Ravenous Haruspex  (The Great Devourer)
3  Striking Ravener  (Decree of Ruin)
3  Tunneling Mawloc  (Aligned Stars)
1  Ymgarl Genestealer  (The Great Devourer)
1  Slavering Mawloc  (The Warp Unleashed)

Attachment (10)
1  Great Scything Talons  (The Great Devourer)
3  Regeneration  (The Great Devourer)
3  Armored Shell  (The Warp Unleashed)
3  Heavy Venom Cannon  (The Great Devourer)

Event (8)
2  Ferocious Strength  (The Great Devourer)
3  Reinforced Synaptic Network  (Defenders of the Faith)
3  Dark Cunning  (The Great Devourer)

Support (1)
1  Awakening Cavern  (The Great Devourer)

Next up, I made a Baharroth deck, because I was told that it was insane to play. The idea here is that I can drop army units in anywhere (say the last planet), win command but then go fight elsewhere! It's a bit of a brainburner though, because in addition to the guesswork of where to put your Warlord, you have to think out where you will want your fights to be. I've managed to play this one once and it was not easy to navigate. 

Baharroth  (Descendants of Isha)

Army (25)
2  Biel-Tan Guardians  (Core Set)
3  Adherent Outcast  (Unforgiven)
2  Eldar Survivalist  (Core Set)
3  Shrouded Harlequin  (Core Set)
4  Baharroth's Hawks  (Descendants of Isha)
1  Soaring Falcon  (Core Set)
1  Spiritseer Erathal  (Core Set)
2  Autarch Celachia  (The Great Devourer)
3  Noble Shining Spears  (Promise of War)
3  Wildrider Vyper  (What Lurks Below)
1  Mighty Wraithknight  (The Threat Beyond)

Attachment (9)
2  Guardian Mesh Armor  (Zogwort's Curse)
1  The Shining Blade  (Descendants of Isha)
3  Saim-Hann Jetbike  (Deadly Salvage)
3  Shuriken Catapult  (Wrath of the Crusaders)

Event (10)
2  Cry of the Wind  (Descendants of Isha)
3  Death from Above  (The Scourge)
3  Eldritch Storm  (Wrath of the Crusaders)
2  Doom  (Core Set)

Support (6)
1  Banner of the Ashen Sky  (Descendants of Isha)
2  Corsair Trading Post  (Core Set)
3  Webway Passage  (Slash and Burn)
