Models in Army: 37


Total Army Cost: 2000

Your troop choices are really light. The terminator squads are really good though but of course you've paid the points for them. I can see you having real problems in objective based missions versus fast armies that can alphastrike your troops.

For the main opponent this army is designed to fight i will only have to worry about him having 1 more squad of troops that are able to capture objectives than me. I plan to have the scouts use infiltrate and while i wait on them try and destroy as many of his scoring units, hence the vindicators, they have a moderate chance of killing his vehicles and will shred berzerkers.
