I'm heading up to this tournament on Sunday for some fun — it's 1k and costs free so why not beat down on some scrubs? But I had a problem with making such a small list with my army because it's a very particular list that's got to be played with at least 1,500 points (it involves scouts, storms, terminators and Lysander). So I came up with this. I'm missing out on Lysander's bolter drill, which really sucks, but I've made do. Anyway, here it is.

Belial I MEAN LYSANDER (th/ss)
5 Deathwing terminators (1 pw, 4 pf, 5 storm bolters)
5 Deathwing terminators (5 th/ss)
5 Deathwing terminators (5 th/ss)
Ravenwing Land Speeder (hb, typhoon)
Ravenwing Land Speeder (hb, typhoon)
Ravenwing Land Speeder (hb, typhoon)

1k on the nose. Sounds fun, yeah? Well it will be. Deal with it.

It used to have more cyclone missiles but I dropped those in favor of having 3 typhoons ("counts as" storms). I could probably vary the squads more and mix them up, but I kind of like just running around with uniformly-equipped units. What would you guys change OR how would you use the army as-is? I love input.

You don't have heavy weapons on the term squads? That would be a mistake in my opinion. One less Landspeeder is worth having three extra heavy weapons. And having run this list (minus one speeder), I would also highly recommend running MMs instead of HBs on the LSs.

15 points to spare. Much better build imo.

Significantly better. Do you know the difference between a Typhoon ML on a Land Speeder and a Cyclone ML on a Terminator? One of them is Av10 with no way of generating cover, the other has a 2+/3++ with 4 ablative wounds that also have 2+/3++. See what I'm getting at here?

This would be an utter nightmare to face at this points level, good job.

By the way, Belial should generally always be running with Lightning Claws, not TH/SS. Independant Character and all that you know.

Last list is nasty. Speeders are going to get shot down early, but then its up to whether or no the terms can catch their target.
