I fielded a three man spear/exarch FA unit and popped a landraider first round. Dropped my 5x warp spiders on the terminators that were forced out and more or less eliminated 2 very costly units. Luck? This game is played with dice so luck has its part.

Most folks regard WSpiders as costly, ineffective and easy kill points. The general consensus on Spears is that they are expensive, fragile, and specialty.

My 1500pt list included these two units because I am a new player (9games total played) and needed to fill the points slots. I've been thinking a dragon/serpent team would be more consistent against armor and prove useful against troops.

I currently field 5x EML and 2x BL already and can't help but think a Firedragon squad would be overkill.

What is your question? Wether or not Fire Dragons are overkill in a serpent? If that is your question it depends on what you are facing. That can be a great way to get you Dragons in range of armor or tuff units. I wouldn't use this against mushy horde units.
