I will be entering a tounemant and I want to know what people think about this list. I want to have a shot at winning but I am mainly going to just have fun and play 40k. So long as I win some games. Here is my list.

HQ
Mephiston-250pts

Troops
Assault Squad- 2 Meltaguns, Thunderhammer-240pts
Assault Squad- 2 Meltaguns, Powerfist-235pts

Elites
Assault Terminators-3 dual Lightning claws, 2 thunderhammers & storm shields-210pts
Furioso Librarian-175pts
2 Sanguinary Priests-Jump Packs-150pts

Fast Attack
Baal Predator- Flamestorm cannon, Heavy Bolter Side Sponsons-145pts

Heavy Support
Stormraven-TL Plasma Cannon, TL Multi-Melta-200pts
Vindicator-145pts

Total-1750pts

The tounemants are 1750pts on day one and 2000pts on day two. So I also want to know what I should add to this list to make it upto 2000pts. I was thinkng a bike squad with one attack bike or vanguard vets.

Also I was thinking about swapping out the Furioso Librarian for a Furioso Dreadnought with Blood talons, heavy flamer and a drop pod and then adding meltabombs onto one of the Sgt's. So I will leave it upto you all for helping me with this.

Thanks for all comments.

EDIT: Looking at the list another option for 2000pts would be a 3rd assault squad.

I think that adding a third assault squad would be good for the 2000 point day, as more troops are always nice. As for the 1750 day, I think that two troops choices is cutting it close. My tournament organizer is a fan of having objectives give points for each turn they are sat on in one of the scenarios. Other than that, it seems like a good list. I assume that the assault terminators are riding in the Stormraven along with the Furioso Librarian Dread. If the Stormraven has assault vehicle (I don't remember), give it extra armor so that you cannot be prevented from moving.

If you're going by the standard mission, I think you can only have 3 elite units. If that's the case, you might want to swap the furioso lib to a regular lib.

Also agree on the 3 assault squads, that's the core I'm running right now.

sang priests can be taken in units of 3



starting in your elites...id definitely drop the furioso libby to a standard furioso with talons. the chance to wipe out a good chunk of a unit in cc is too good to pass up. also give it a heavy flamer just in case you come across a large unit or some dark eldar so you dont have to deal with the invuln save they get in cc.

id also probably drop the predator for another vindi, dishing out 2 large blasts at that strength is kinda hard to pass up

but for some reason this list screams for a second storm raven

I personally think that you are lacking scoring units.

Not enough troops at this points level and a mix and match of vehicles will lead to easy target priority. Hybrid lists need to have a even number of vehicles and infantry units and vehicles should be in pairs for reason mentioned in my above sentence

Oh wow, I didn't notice that little gem.

Also agree on the Furioso. I picked one up and I love it.

Have made some changes to the list on this one.

Heavy Support

Predator-Assault Cannon, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Extra Armour-115pts

Total-1745pts

For the 2000pt list I will add a Vanguard Vetran Squad w/ Jump Packs.

And the termis and Dreadnought go in the Stormraven.

This looks like a fun list.

I have edited my second list to include a regular predator instead of a vindicator.
