That's 12 shots at strength 8 with sky fire and twin-linked at 48". Which means full bs against other skimmer lists and flyers.

18 strength 8 or 18 strength 4 small blasts at 48", plus 27 strength 5 at 36" on 9 fast skimmers.

4 heavy flamers, plus 4 18" large blast weapons that cause blind on 4 fast skimmers

8 snipers for pinning shoot arms and 2 launchers for more strength 8 or blasts.

Libby because I need a HQ

Adl with comma to give me rerolls on reinforcements


Deployment depends on the army I'm facing, if its flyer spam, I will try to keep rerolling my reserves to bring the stalkers in after their flyers.

Any improvements or gaping holes?

Looks quite, ehem, specialised.

I believe you might not have the minis available, so try it as a proxylist.

I see some potential downfalls with LS weapons being aimed around shooting infantry. With there being 4 units of min sized scouts. With only very soft targets list.

Give it a whirl, maybe it can act in mysterious ways.

Yes I'm thinking of running it proxy first, I was thinking about the 22 strength 8 ap 3 shots at 48" range.

Edit update to include rumored points, Also removal of MOTF and addition of Libby, 3 * stalkers and a ADL with coms.

Edited with more info and because rumours now being backed up by early codex owners.

Final edit updated.

That's 12 shots at s7 SF TL or 24 at S7 SF, right?
