Default 1250 pts list - How would this fare out against Nidzilla?(Need Response Pronto!)

TO, I need your help. I have a tourney tommorow and I need the input fast.

Well, I have talked about this before in another thread before, and based upon this tourney, I can somehow tailor my list against my opponent, provided that I have the necessary models to make the list.

Since my first opponent is a friend of mine who often have a very solid staple in his force of 3 Carnifexes and 1 Hive tyrant, alongside several Genestealers I know what he can and can't do. Since my opponent expects me to play Mech Tau, I decided to just change my entire dynamics of the list and make do with a hybrid list.

And after much brainstorming, I have came up with this list.

HQ
1.Shas'el
PLasma rifle
Missile Pod
Targetting array
Hardwired Multitracker

total : 97 pts

Elites
1. Crisis Suit Team
Crisis Suit Team Leader
Missile Pods
Plasma Rifle
Targetting Array
Hardwired Multitracker
Hardwired Target Lock
Bonding Knife

Crisis Suit
Missile Pod
Plasma rifle
Multitracker

Total pts: 149 pts

2.Crisis Suit team
Crisis Suit Team
Crisis Suit Team Leader
Missile Pods
Plasma Rifle
Targetting Array
Hardwired Multitracker

Total Pts: 77 pts

3.Crisis Suit Team
Crisis Suit Team Leader
Missile Pods
Plasma Rifle
Targetting Array
Hardwired Multitracker

total pts: 77 pts

Troops
1. Fire Warrior Squad
1 Shas'ui with Bonding Knife
9 x Shasla

Total pts: 115 pts

2.Fire Warrior Squad
1 Shas'ui with Bonding Knife
9 x Shasla

Total pts: 115 pts

3.Fire Warrior Squad
1 Shas'ui with Bonding Knife
9 x Shasla

Total pts: 115 pts

Heavy Support
1. Hammerhead
Railgun
Smart Missile System
Decoy Launcher
Multitracker
Target Lock

Total pts: 180 pts

2. Hammerhead
Railgun
Smart Missile System
Decoy Launcher
Multitracker
Target Lock

Total pts: 180 pts

3. Hammerhead
Ion Cannon
Smart Missile System
Decoy Launcher
Multitracker
Target Lock

Total pts: 140 pts

The list is primarily primed to kill as much things as I could fast and effective, especially the Monstrous creatures. Even when I am in hiding I could still punish the genestealers with my SMSes and fire warriors.

Now I know that my list is in risk of geting asault, but I hope to try and bring as much shots as I could on the table while also maintaining some sort of mobility so that I can bring my forces to where they are needed the most.


C&C please, and FAST.

I personally think that's a very solid list but if you want lots mobility then you need the FW's with DF.

There is only 1 thing I'd change in the army and that is the SMS's on the HH's. I'd give 'em Burst Cannons as they get 2 more shots with the same Str and AP. Your probably gonna say that the SMS is better due to it not needing a Line Of Sight but I personally think BC's are better if you want as many shots into the enemy as possible.

Hope I've helped.

Well, fair enough. But I do not want to risk getting assaulted by the Monstrous creatures and also the Crazy rendings that the Genestealers can bring to bear. But I will consider it.

Well, fought the Nid Player today. I managed to wipe everything but one Carnifex on the board.

;D
