Note: I made this for lols in my local GW so i did not have much time to fix it it was intended to be 2k but i was over so i was like pfft 2250. I Know AV 14 would be a problem, im looking for views on how it would preform vs your list / the meta / what ever you think is relevent

Now on with the list

HQ

Crowe 150 pts
Dont care what he does makes puris troops

Elites

Ven Dreads 195 pts (X3 @ 585 pts)
x2 TL autocannon, Psi-bolt *(will be shortened to PB)* Ammo (+1 S on some range weps)

Troops

Puri Squad 165 pts (X2 @ 330 pts)
2 Psycannons, 1 ND hammer (ND= Nemeisis deamon), PB ammo.

W/ Razorback (50 pts) (X2 @ 100)
HB, PB ammo.

4x Gk strike Squad (130 pts) (X4 @ 520)
1 Psycannon, PB ammo.

W/ Rhino (40 pts) (X4 @ 160 pts)
SB.

Heavy

Dreads 135 pts (X3 @ 405 pts)
x2 TL autocannon, PB ammo.

2250 pts

I chose PB ammo on the 6 troop units an ND Hammers in puri squads instead of a GK interceptor sqaud e.g. 130 pts
PB 20 pts , ND Hammer 5 pts. I see the pros and cons of my choice.

S5 Storm Bolters
S8 Autocannons
S6 Heavy Bolters

youu're takingCRowe and 4 strike squads? Why? Why just go all purifiers if you're taking Crowe? You get more psycannons are only 1 point more with a Halberd and actually 1 point cheaper with Falcions. You've got lots of 5 man squads why not take Razorbacks for all?

Not convinced that the Venerable dreads are worth it, though I know that is kind of your theme.

Thx like i said I did not have time, I look into it when i get the codex :3.

I Did 4+2 as in 4 attackers 2 defenders, I know i may have made mistakes but like I said time limits and such .

I'd go all Purifiers probably dropping to 5 squads they are just so much more point efficient than Strike squads particularly if you give them any upgrades. In fact I'd probably be tempted to take 10 man squads with razorbacks leaving 4 psycannons to defend your firebase and score (unlike the dreads) and going with Halberds and/or falcions (and a DH) on the other half of the squad so you can be aggressive with them.

thx again

The 4 psycannon Purifier combat squad also weighs in at 20 points less than a Purgation squad with 4 Psycannons and is better in almost every way

Purifiers really are the only troops choice you should look at once you've taken Crowe. They are awesome and get their equipement so damn cheap.

I'm going to run purifiers as 7 man squads in rhinos, because you can still shoot 2 weapons if you move 6. Much cheaper than running razorbacks. I'm giving the majority of them razorbacks too because they're so cheap.

Points here are innefficient.

Psybolts on 5 man squads?

Dual Psycannon squads mounted in Razorbacks instead of popping the top and shooting from a rhino?


....keep fiddling with your troops choices.


(He's got 4 Strikes Squads to prevent deepstriking effectiveness against his vehicles/dreads, which I totally agree with. Dreadspam needs distance)

Fair enough just feel that Purifiers will do more damage both in assault and from range for the same points. You could always get Coteaz and you've got protection from outflankers too.
