General Tactics: Rush the board with all vehicles, utilize the Warlord traits and BA traits to focus on mass high initiative/rending attacks from the lightning claw terminators that will be deployed centrally. The LRC that transports the terminators will provide the terminators with ranged support, while the tactical squads will deploy from their rhinos and protect each flank and prevent surges to the rear line by remaining in 12" rapid fire range, using their flamer and veteran sergeant to deter charges. Behind this first line will be a rear line of dual Baal Predators, utilizing maximum dakka in that 24 inch range to provide some heavy support. Lastly the dual attack bikes with multi-meltas will act as hit and run harasser units, designed to identify anti-armor threats and throw themselves at them to protect the land raider, predators and terminators. When called for, the bikes can also supplement the rhino transports which will be used to snatch up unprotected objectives and pick up victory points where they can.


Thanks again everyone for providing such a good knowledge base. I look forward to your comments.

And hi again!

Like I mentioned in your other post, you definitely need more solid anti-tank fire.

Predator with three Lascannons hasn't failed me yet.


Another thing I'm forced to say yet again is: Sanguinary Priests.
Easily one of our best units and your Terminators would enjoy the FnP.
Also, having one or two TH/SS-combos there would make you able to tacke bigger threats and if necessary, bind deathly enemy units in cc.

If you can find the points, having both Captain and Priest in the unit wouldn't be the worst choice.
But if you can only get one, I would definitely choose the Priest.

Last point: Heavy flamers on Tactical Suqads and Artificer armor on Captain are great upgrades if possible.

I liked your list and kind of added my own flair to it.
