6 scarab swarms

1 heavy destoryer

2 monoilths

All comments welcome.  The phase out for the list is 9 models.  There is a lot of MEQ Armys where I play at.  So, if any of your comments can help me wth the Army list please give them.  Thanks.

Do you mean MEQ armies or mechanized armies? Just a bit confused. In either case I think the two monlith are a bad idea. They're big and scary and dakka, but if you lose those 9 crons early they're a waste. Use the extra points to beef up your warriors as smaller units don't do to well in my experience. I don't know about the one heavy destroyer, if your enemy has a lot of armour he'll probably aim to kill it pretty early. But its only 15pts more so its not exactly a big deal and if you see landraiders often its a good idea. I don't know about scarabs, but I've never seem them used for anything other than holding up mean cc units which I assume you're using them for.

Thanks Dave for your input.  The 2 Monoliths are there to keep the Army alive as much as possible.  Getting re-rolls for my be back rolls is a must for this army.  And yes I meant MEQ armys.

If you really want the dual monoliths, you need to maximize the help they will give your army. Those 6 immortals will be downed in a single turn and wont get WBB. You are better off using those points to buff the size of your warrior units. Also, you dont really need to bog things down with the scarabs, so those points should go elsewhere.

The res orb is the only useful piece of wargear you currently have on your lord. You would be much better off with the veil, as if gets you another way out of combat, plus lets you grab objectives on the last turn.

As for the heavy destroyer, drop it or get more. A single one never gets WBB, so why would you take a model that is priced for WBB without actually benefiting from the rule?

That's good advice Slyde.  I'm really going to have rethink my Army list.  Thanks for everything.
