Hey, this is the list I've been trying out lately, but my only two competitors are a mixed 'Nids list and a mechanized Guard army. I'm just wondering what thoughts you guys had as to how I could improve it.

Generally, I use my Lt. and Flesh Hounds to disrupt the enemy with an early charge, using my Lord and bikes as counter assault or as an attack force, while everything else just picks apart juicy targets. I am not sold on the second infiltrating dual Plasma squad, but I'm not sure what to replace it with.

Lord: Stature, Strength, Speed, Essence, Aura, Resilience, Armour, Furious, Frags, Spiky Bits, 2 CCW, MoCU (188)

Lt.: Speed,Mutation, Dblade, Strength, Spiky Bits, Furious, Infiltrate, Frags, BP (152)

I would drop a few powerfist sergeants because you got lots of fast attack units and good counter attack... half the game sum powerfist will do nothing i think...I would drop the 2plasma infiltrate unit and spend the points for more havocs.. your havoc units has to deploy first and can be avoided... giving them infiltrate would help. I would split up the missle luanchers and autocannons. specially agaist nids and guard you want to split up the tankbusting weapons (missle l) and the heavy troop killers (autocannon).

The Lt. has too many points in Gifts to be legal. Drop the strength from the champs, S9 is not appreciably better than S8.

Regarding the Lt. I thought that there was an FAQ that said that Daemon Weapons didn't count towards the gift limit, but now that you mention it I can't find it. So I think I'll swap it out for a power weapon and maybe add resilience.

Here is a slightly reworked version, I figure with the Obliterator and another Havoc Squad the infiltrate on the Las/Plas squad wasn't needed. I kept the strength on the biker champ because they are there for anti-tank duty and I've missed with both meltas before, so S9 is good insurance for tank busting. I'm not sure what to do with the extra 6 points, maybe put strength back on the Chosen Champ or maybe put Night Vision on the Havocs(for dusk and dawn).
