After some debate with friends over this list. I went from building, to passing on it, to buying it and for sure building. Want to do something different and prove a point to our local TFG.

I have considered PF on Vet Sqd Sgt's. We decided that if we are in combat it's a loss, anyway. No need to stick 60pts in the PF's.

The Platoon was viable due to Command getting 4 flamers and the Infantry can hold objectives, while firing AC and GL.

Opinions and advice welcome.

This is the Aircav I posted a few days ago along with the tactics for how it works.

Your list looks pretty good, not 100% aircav but has some nice ground elements.

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.

130 pts for x2 ground units doesn't negate an Air Cav list.

I have 76 troopers in this list and 7 Valkyrie/Vendetta vs. your list that has 56 trooper and 5 Valkyrie/Vendetta.

Big point sinks in your squads.

I was actually complimenting your list.

I like your ground units they are a good idea.

You're braver than I, wanting to build all those valkyries and vendettas! I love mine, but it was a PAIN to assemble. Very complex kit.

As for your list, it looks pretty airtight. You have a lot of anti tank, and a lot of anti-horde. You should do fine against most anything you come up against. BTW: with all the psychic powers being slung around, the =I= with a hood was a very good choice. Dual-purposing him with mystics is just icing on the cake.

My area has a good mix of SW, Bugs, and mech'd up armies.

I want to do a simple IG army, but I still have 70 infantry to paint. Arrggh.

On complexity of Valk model... It looks alittle rough, but I'm cutting from sprue and trimming bits at time.
