lol. Just noticed it? I'll tell a mod to move it.

tx . I clicked the wrong link and didn't think to check where I was.

Buy a couple raptors. They have their uses. I just bought two guys with assault weapons and three regular dudes, and whenever I need them, they're there for me.

Also, go buy some terminators....Or get like 5 Terminator Lord Kits....They have more uses than the standard terminator kit. Especially for Termicide and Lightning claws guys.

A land raider. They also have numerous uses.

A dreadnought. Plasma cannon+ DDCW is ace.

A possessed kit. Either for converting or whatever; they make great bits.

Another Rhino or two. I don't like my KBs in rhinos, most of the time, since it isn't an assault vehicle.

I've been slowly collecting CSMs for a few years now but I don't quite have enough models to get to the 1850pts the game store usually plays at w/out taking hugely expensive units and upgrades. We also want to start playing 2000pt games.
I'd like to know what I should get to soak up some of the extra points floating around my boyz and what to add to get the most out of the extra 150 pts. First I'll give the list I am using then some things I have been thinking of.
------------------------------------
List- (*=rhino)

2 daemon princes: both with MoT, WT, and BoC = 410

10 CSMs: IoCG, 2x Melta gun = 250

10 CSMs: IoCG, 2x Plasma gun = 235

*8 Khorne Zerkers: champ + power wep/plasma pistol & melta bombs, 2x more plasma pistols = 283~

*8 Tousands suns, 1 sorc: WoC = 309~

2 Oblits = 150

1 Defiler: havoc launcher = 155 total cost = ~1792
____________________________________________________________
Some things I've been thinking about:

1)I want to try out a 3 man tank busting bike squad with two melta guns and a champ with a power fist, probably an IoCG too. It would cost a little under 150pts and would just zoom around the battle focusing on tanks and MCs, or out flanking if there aren't any (which would be strange) . They are also "ok" at sucking up damage with their T5.

2)More Oblits. I think I am going to get more of these guys. Even when they don't get much pewpew out on the field they still scare my opponents into making strange moves. I'll prolly get 2 more and take 2 squads of 2. (222222222)

3)I have been thinking about taking some plague marines instead of or as well as my other troupes. I could take a double plasma (all the way across the sky?) plague group instead of my double plasma (all the...) normal boy squad. or give my second normal boy squad flamers and try to get them into CC. I've never even tried proxy plague marines so I don't quite know what to expect from them.

4)I could get some Termies. I've been very tempted to get termies cuz they seem like they would be able to rip things apart. I do not however like the cost of them. 150 pts for 5 vanilla termies wouldnt be too bad but i don't like relying on deep striking or how slow they are since they cant take rhinos or sweeping advance and they ony have the one wound. I also probably would not want to pay the 50~$ to put together 5 normal termies. I'd want to make lightning claw termies and fist termies as well.
This is an area where I would need a bit of help because maybe termies are just what I need, or maybe there are much better options like more zerkers. In a 1v1 fight if the zerkers got the charge on the termies, the zerkers would most likely kill them all in 1-2 turns. Unless they took a mark of expensive Zteentch.
_________________________________________________
These are pretty much the options I am thinking about. I would not mind taking out one unit for another (like TSs for something as they are fairly expensive, I do love them though )

My 4 options are just the ones "I" have come up with so their not the only ones I would consider, just the ones I have.

Please tell me what you would do, have done, or think I should do.

This is a Warhammer Fantasy Army List thread. You want this list in the 40k one - ask a mod to move it.

damnit : /

Obliterators, preferably 2. I know they come in squads of 3 but that always seems to be to much and the squad becomes kinda awkward, why? i do not know.

A Daemon Prince w/t Wings is always a nice addition, I Have a Minotaur Daemon Prince w/t Wings and Warp Time, He tears it up in melee combat.


Things to avoid; Chosen Squads. Too expensive and are pretty bleh. Now they do get a good size wargear selection, but other than that they are just mediocre.
