Thoughts? I don't want to mass oblits, just not my style. Furthermore, I don't like how expensive rhinos are in here, but it seems like it will benefit a Rhino Rush list very much.

What combi weapon is the lord using?

You don't need the Champions as you're paying 15 points for a Marine 15 points Champion and 10 points for a combi melta. You only need Champions when taking Greater Daemons.

Rhinos don't need daemonic possession, costs too much.

Obliterators are cool but everything is short ranged so you haven't got a huge amount of ranged fire power. Against a long range opponent you'll just have to suck it up and move up quickly popping smoke on the way.

Alright, I was planning Combi Melta, sorry, thought I put it.

No champs sounds good to me, it saves points. Keep the champ on the Zerkers though right?

I would take Dozer blades on my Rhinos then, just because I want more Hazard Stripes in my army.

Good point on the Oblits, swap it for a third vindicator then? Furthermore, Demonic Possession on those Vindicators?

If you drop the Rhino's Daemonic Possession, and the AC with Combi-meltas, that gives 110 points I believe, which you could invest, with your other spare points in a termicide unit, 3 Terminators with Combi-Meltas and a chainfist.
I would keep the Obliterator, they can Deepstrike, or advance with your army anyway, and give you a bit of long range fire.

That was my new list, is Demonic Possession really necessary on Vindicators? If not I could make all my rhinos have dozer blades which would make me so very happy.

I was thinking about termicide, not sure if I would get more troops though.

If you want the Champion on the Berzerkers. Some people like the power fist.

I wouldn't take dozer blades either. Hazard stripes look ace on the Rhino roof hatches and rear door

Hmmm I used daemonic possession and it's expensive but is useful. Try it out and see how it goes.

So far he's done good, hitting at S10 on the charge helps with vehicles, and MC's.

Good point on the Stripes placement! I think I'll try that.

Will do on the Possession, it seems like it helps them from all the small arms fire, since not a ton of things can reliably pen a vindicator.

S9? power fist doubles to S8 +1 for furious charge = S9.

Daemonic possession doesn't stop small arms fire, technically small arms fire won't do nothing to a tank. What possession does is ignore 1/3 of the vehicle table allowing the Vindicator to move and get into range.

Right, forgot you add FC after the fact.

And I probably should have worded that better by saying Glances, and unlucky pens.
