I think that this isnt a Fantasy army....try again in the 40k section.

it will however totally kick the ass of any spear wielding savages it comes across

Do psychic hoods shut down the magic phase?

Needs some dispel scrolls. MOAR Heroes.

The downside to Death Company is Rage, if you come up against an opponant who is well versed in dealing with them then they will just run around the board chaseing his "closest" unit and never accomplish anything.

Its worth a shot, when the BA codex first came out, alot of people tried lists like this, then everyone realised how to screw with Rage. The only way I've seen Death Company be effective is for them to start the game in a Storm Raven or some other kind of transport, as it nullifies the Rage special rule.

My suggestion to your list would be to cut the number of Death Company to the maximum that will fit in a Storm Raven, take two Storm Ravens, one full of the Death Company, the other with an assult squad, give each of the Raven's Dreads and go to town.

Sorry to say it but this is a total mess.

Walking Death Company are fail they get lead around by a land speeder and spend all game chasing it around their deployment zone with those Dreads whilst the enemy blasts away at you laughing...

Change this to an assault squad and you've saved yourself 25 points and you can take a special weapon...

Sternguard without a transport fail and Sternguard without combi-weapons is a waste.

The TL-Las cannon on the Predator is never worth it 45 points AND you're giving up a 15 point autocannon meaning you're spending 60 points on 1 lascannon! Take a AC/LC Pred it will do 95% of the job for 70% of the cost...

And take it in pairs always pairs.

Also duel Multi-melta in the LS isn't great the MM/HF option works well, but in general there are better ways of getting melta into a BA list.

I like literally nothing you've selected.

you are correct, this is a 40k list, that is why it is in the Forum Index » 40K Army Lists section.

well the 25 Death Company can still shoot Landspeeders if they are the closest unit to my death company, cause DC can move and fire their bolters at full effect thanks to relentless.
