Okay a few things... other then the fact this isnt really a ligitiment points list :P

You'll have to ask to use Straken.

Taking missile launchers AND flamers in the same squad is pointless, if you move you cant shot the ML, if you sit to shoot the ML the flamer is almost useless unless the enmy is at your door.

AFAIK you have to pay for the HK missile on your sentinel. (However i'm currently looking into that as a loop hole in the dex)

Inquisitor Walsy · 21 May 2006, 09:42

Like i said it is experimental, but any other advice

Jeff · 21 May 2006, 09:49

Perhaps loose the bolters for bolt pistols and CC weapons. It will allow to assault and shoot.

Advice for a game?

Ambush is your friend.

If your looking for points... throw in some traps.

Don't roll a 1 when seeing if your commi has an 'accident'

Other wise... the rest of the army looks fine, i'm just a little worried about the flamer/ML combo

Inquisitor Walsy · 21 May 2006, 09:53

Well, what would you suggest?

As in?

What do you want specific help with?

Inquisitor Walsy · 21 May 2006, 10:22

Well if youre telling me not to have the flamer ml combo, tell what you think i should have

Jeff · 21 May 2006, 10:43

-take out the flamers

-Make your Captains into Lieutenants

-Make another HQ choice with a captain (or colonel) and put the flamers oin with him. Give him a pistol and Power weapon.

Thats one option.

Another is to make your squad sizes small and add in new squads using the excess troops with the flamers.

Inquisitor Walsy · 21 May 2006, 10:49

Can you have two command squads? wow

Jeff · 21 May 2006, 11:26

Umm... yea.... thats why in your FoC it has two HQ slots
