ok, throne of skulls at 1750pts may be ages away but that just means more time for me to practise and paint lol

ok guys, I need you to help me out here. I think I have a pretty solid list and have put quite a bit of thought into making it. Re-righting the list many times and trying to optimise it as much as possible. as it is my first time entering a TOS tournament I don’t expect to come first but it would be pointless for me not to try. so, without further ramblings, here's my list so far. feel free to rip it apart or suggest ways to beat it.

HQ:

coteaz 100
comes as standard. the I've been expecting you rule isn't great but his re-roll for stealing the initiative and the fact he lets me take henchmen as troops is the reason why he's there. also dark excommunication is a nice little spell for any daemons out there.

Xenos inquisitor 93
power armour
psycho and rad grenades
ham hand and a FW
digi weapons
this guy rides with the death cult assassins, making them (effectively) S6 with -1 to my opponents T and +1S thanks to hammer hand. can counter mephison thanks to psycho grenades and a force weapon if he is able to land a blow. if not then my DCA will/should be able to hurt him.

elites:

2X psyfleman ven dreads. 390
these guys are for anti light to med armour tanks. being S8 they can also stun land raiders which is always good as that’s all it takes to cripple BA landspam. but what if some of them miss? well.....

vindicar assassin 145
that’s what this guys for. whith luck he can pop a LR per turn or take down any pesky long fang sergeants or farseers (shield breaker then turbo pen). also helps to take down any large beasties such as a tyrant surrounded by guards (2 turns and it’s dead)

troops:

8 psykers and a crusader in a chimera X2 300
these units are like mini vindicaters with glass cannons. they work well for against infantry blobs or templar black waves. the vindicar is also there to shoot down any anti psy models that my opponent might have. (such as eldrad) the crusaders there so that the unit doesn’t die if POTW happens

7 death cult assassins and 1 crusader in a chimera X2 350
coteaz goes in one and my XI goes in the other. these are for clearing OBJs and for killing anything problematic. if they were to double team any unit then it will die as I have one lot of S5 assassins and -1T to the enemy unit. again the crusader is there to stop the unit being wiped out quickly. I'm thinking of swapping a DCA from each unit for a 2nd crusader. thoughts?

heavy support:

psyfleman dread 135
see ven dread

dread knight 230
great sword
teleporter
the real big gun of the army. by turn one he is in my opponents face or contesting an OBJ. he acts as my second land raider killer as his rerolls mean that even moving flat out wont save a tank. he is more than capable of going against wraith lords, especially when my inquisitor is there as well with rad grenades.

so there you have it. a gun line with 3 mini death stars

all C&C welcome and wanted. if you have anything to say about the list feel free to post it
