Would love some input.

The only things I would suggest would be getting a third pod In the list somehow for ds fun - that way you could have both dreads arrive on turn 1 etc.

Looks like a solid list IMO, I agree with the third DP but I don't think it's completely necessary to the lists overall effectiveness. Mayhaps drop the packs on the flamer RAS and give them the third DP, that would make it so they could come in later in the game and flamer infantry that are taken out of tanks that the other 2 RAS destroyed with their meltaguns and/or vindicators.

Thanks for the replies. Getting a third drop pod could be ideal. Any other suggestions?

Either change might of heroes to something else or find the points to make the librarian an epistolary. Both of those powers are assault turn moves so you can only use 1 a player turn, but if you have epistolary you can use both and really put the hurt on.

I suggest removing the PW from the priests, you want them to appear harmless so they dont get singled out in CC. Then drop the Hand Flamer from the assault group and give them meltabombs, a strength 3 template wont hunt much. That gives you the extra 50 points to make your Librarian an Epistolary.

Thanks. I see where you are coming from. The only thing is I need the power weapons to lay the hurt on the assualt. I don't want to drop so much stuff just for the chance of another physic power. Thanks for the comments anyway. Much appreciated. Any other thoughts?

I changed the physic power to Blood lance for a mix of shooty and assualty physic powers.

What role do the vindicators fill?

Are you worried about the blasts scattering onto your own troops, who are designed to get close and personal fast?

On missions where you have an objective in your deployment zone, will one of your assault square sit on it? Will that limit their impact on the game?

Thanks for the comment. basically in an objective game I can combat squad one of the assualt suads to sit on the objective, Therefore I am only losing a five man squad not a full 10 man. The vindicators are there to lay the hurt. They are very effevtive when you know how to use them.
