Hey everyone, I have an 1850 point list ready to go, but there's a 1750 point RTT coming up and I'm having difficulty picking how I want to slim it down. First the 1850 list:
Vulkan @ 190
Librarian in Terminator Armor @ 125
Assault Terminator Squad @ 400
10x TH/SS
Land Raider Redeemer @ 250
MM
Land Raider Redeemer @ 250
MM
Tactical Squad @ 205
10x; Rhino; MM; Flamer
Tactical Squad @ 205
10x; Rhino; MM; Flamer
Land Speeder @ 70
MM;HF
Land Speeder @ 70
MM;HF
Dakka Pred @ 85 points
Autocannons; HB
Total: 1850
I had some options I thought of for the 1750:
-Drop one of the TH/SS termy/land raider units and replace with a tac squad, razorback for the libby
-Toss in some bikes to get more melta and take advantage of Vulkan's rule - maybe even a captain to boot so they can score (obv dropping the librarian)
-Take more long range firepower (preds or a whirlind)
But basically the options are wide open. It doesn't need to be painted so I can get whatever and field it. Advice appreciated - thanks!

I really like the terminator lib with the assault squad.
You could just drop 5 terms from a LR. And put a 10 man tactical squad.
Then drop one land speeder.
You're still getting scoring units (more tacticals) and keeping the duel LR.
It's the quickest fix. You're still keeping a term lib with 5 terms in a LR also, which I think is a very strong group. I don't know where your putting Vulkan, but he's in artificer armor so he could roll with tacticals in their LR easily as well.

I can see that (putting a tac squad in the second LR), and I do like the librarian, null zone alone is worth the points. To answer your question, I put Vulkan in the other LR with the other 5 assault terminators.

So are you going to field the librarian in terminator armor?
You could keep the assault terminator sqaud with the librarian.
And give Vulkan the tacticals, because they're all same armor. Or just drop librarian's term armor.

10 Termies?????
Isn't that a bit overkill? I would definitely drop 5 termies and one of the LR's. Pick up another scoring unit.
Check this 1850 out

I run a list close to that with 5 termies, a dread, and meltas in the tact squads with a third 5 man squad a lib in a razorback. But yes, want to take advantage of the melta and flamer rerolls
