So, what do we have here?

16 TL kraks @ 48". 8 Psycannons. 9 TL str6 shots. Some meltaguns if a land raider shows up. 4x av12, 7 rhino chassis.

You'll usually want to combat squad the 'friers and steal the meltasquads' rhinos, so you can shoot 2 psycannons out of the top hatches.

Other than that, its relatively simple. Drive into midfield, stay there. You should be able to outshoot most everything, hordes will cry when you drop 4 cleasing flames on them (yep, thats 2 wounds per model in the unit ), and most deathstars you should be able to shoot up, shoot up some more, bubblewrap away with the henchmen, and then finish them with the purifiers.

Only thing I'm slightly worried about is the relative fragility of my scoring units, but usually it isnt a problem, there are so many real threats in this army that your opponent is rarely able to concentrate on your tiny henchman squads, especially when they'll only be on the board by t 3-4 (you did leave them in reserve, right?)

A plus is that an unaware opponent might look at your single Venerable dread and write you off as a battleforce n00b. Then on turn 1 you can shatter that illusion, along with most of his army (see what I did there?)

C&C welcome =)

I really don't understand the loadout on you henchmen, and why not halberds on you purifiers? Just get rid of 4 henchmen and you can buy 8 halberds to cover the rest of the purifiers.

Swapped around a bit, picked up the halberds.

What is difficult to understand about cheap squads with melta?

Don't understand your transport selection.... 3 melta = chimera, 2 psycAnnon= rhino. No psycannon = razor.

The rhinos are primarily intended for the combat squadding purifier squads to steal. 2 Psycannons with fortitude. I guess the meltas are there just incase a land raider shows up.
