Grand Master will make one (or both) Purifiers Troops. Maybe even the Paladins if I get a good roll. Everybody in TDA rides in the Stormraven, with Librarian playing support. The Paladin/HQ unit is a kind of Anvil (though honestly it'll probably put out the pain, too). The Purifiers show up a turn later and serve as the Hammer.

Strike Squads chill with the Dreads for counter-assault and general patrol duties.

I've got a couple of upgrades I could swap around, but what are your thoughts so far?

Thanks!

I would drop Psy Ammo on purifiers so you can swap out the incinerators for more psycannons, never can have enough psycannons. Looks solidish though, lots of shooty elements

I agree but I wouldn't use on psycannon. Drop the Stormraven, it's decent but at 2000P there are loads of Lasscannon's or it's equivelent. Loving the pur It's solid but considering other 2000P army's it may struggle. Loving the purifier's always split into combat squads!
The paladin's I'm assuming are in the Storm-Raven? If so I would drop them also and mabye put in some Interceptor squads.

Teleport shunt and the fact they count as having jump packs are invaluable.

If you combat squad the Purifiers, do you foot slog half of them behind the Rhinos? That could be an interesting strategy, and provide more target saturation.

The Stormraven may not last long, understandably. I am only relying on it to last for the first turn. Anything after that is bonus. Terrain and the Librarian will help it a bit.

Curious to see what happens if I take Interceptors instead, though. I'll look at it If I do that, I guess the two HQs can foot-slog with the combat-squadded Purifiers? It removes their ability to sweeping advance, though. Hmmmmmm...
