In both lists, 1 command squad is in a vendetta.

In the platoon list I could put the CCS in the second vendetta but I don't wanna lose orders to the platoon blob.

Appreciate thoughts, thanks!

No input? Really need help deciding.

Well I guess I built the two most perfect lists!!

You go this many Vostroyans ? Nice.

The sheer number and variety of units make IG lists so interesting at this points level.

If you can get Presicence + bring it down on the lascannon blob it could work out. I have kinda given up on lascannons on front armor as they have not performed me since the 7th vehicle dmg changes.
What works best for me is krak grenades on my msu squads charging vehicles.
I have never run the meltavet in chimera/taurox thing. But perhaps the 2nd list could work out ok? The wyverns are an autoinclude. Not so sure about the Basi+Lrbt at the bottom of list 2 tho. You forgot the Moo! dont leave home without him.

Thanks man. Yea I have 120 vostroyans.

Which list would you take?

Tough call as to which I would take. List 1 has more long range firepower and will go better on a table not crowded with LOS blocking terrain. Your LC blob will in theory pop a transport a turn then your wyerns can hit the spilled passengers.

If lots of terrain the close in meltavet guys should perform better getting in close to shoot.

Do meltavets in chimera generally perform better than foot blobs for the points?

Absolutely. Foot guard dies so fast.. And are slower. Melta vets are more durable and faster.
