Scorpions fail, because they cannot fleet and have no power weapons. Take Banshees, or I suggest Harlies with kisses, Fusion pistols and Shadowseer. Death Jester and Troupe Master are not necessary.

The farseer need both runes.

The Avatar: Take something another for 155 points, a second Farseer for example. The Avatar is too slow, dies from mass bolter fire or a clever opponent will just ignore him.

i leave the avatar behind to give fearless to guardians and the IG and SM dont use pykers so the second rune would be useless against them

and if i take banshees shoulndnt i take a wave serpent which i cant afford with a full squad?

your going to have a LOT of issues vs IG with that list. IG's staple is massive firepower, your guardians will get smeared fearless or not. The shear number of blasts IG can put out will crush them.

If you want to be successful to a large degree against IG you'll need to serpent up and do 2-3 Warwalker Squadrons.

Those brightlances are one hit wonders.

If they hit that is. Also the scorpions are actually better off than the banshees at this point seeing as they can start off right next to everyone. I've had pretty good success with them tearing apart squads because I came in behind the IG and started on the side of the blob that doesn't have the powerfist.

I concur. Also IG troops aren't that well armoured so PW don't have much of an impact, the extra attack is much more useful here and the scorpions claw is good for destroying tanks.

So should i keep everything but change the Scopian Exarch to the powerclaw
