Hey all,
This list is a variation of Mahu's list a while back, but my speeder/sergeant loadouts are different.  I know that this list won't be top tier, but I'd like it to give any balanced list a run for its money.  Thanks!

I could put melta bombs on someone, but I think that there is enough anti-tankness running around that it's not crucial, especially since everyone has grenades already.  I think that I would combat squad out the two non-assaulty bike squads and run the two sergeants close together to do some LOS/fire power denial stuff, but I'm not entirely sure that the powerfists are a good idea on them, I may want to go with plain old power weapons, but we'll have to see.  Thoughts?

You'd be better off with a Heavy Bolter in the bike squad with the Flamers, unless you're planning on combat-squadding it out of the unit.

I don't think the Fast Attack speeders are doing you any good--consider some heavy support like a predator or something else a bit more substantial.

Attack bikes are always a seperate unit so it doesn't matter if he's combat squading or not.

I'm not a huge fan of characters on bikes in a Ravenwing army. They don't scout and I think the points could better spent on 3 more bikes or another Tornado.

Let us know how you do, I'm seriously considering building and running one of these.
