The list definitely has some potential but I have to wonder if the dual Land Raider build is worth it in this design since it forces you to field Venerable Psyfleman Dreads, which are soaking up a ton of points. Also, the third unit of Purifiers seems a little odd if you intend to combat squad them, seeing as half the squad will be immobile while the other half drives forward, giving you 5 models that will be on foot in an otherwise meched up list.

I think I might consider running 1x Land Raider and 1x Stormraven, then buy a pair of standard Psyflemans and a pair of smaller squads of Purifiers. You could then buy a Librarian to ride in the Stormraven and give it a 3+ cover save when moving Flat-Out, though there would only be enough points for 9 Purifiers in that unit instead of 10.

Crowe - 150
Librarian (Might, Shrouding, Sanctuary) - 165
10 Purifiers (2x Psycannon, 7x Halberd, 1x Hammer, Razorback) - 324
9 Purifiers (2x Psycannon, 6x Halberd, 1x Hammer) - 253
5 Purifiers (2x Psycannon, 2x halberd, 1x Hammer, Rhino) - 189
5 Purifiers (2x Psycannon, 2x halberd, 1x Hammer, Rhino) - 189
Stormraven (TL Assault Cannon, TL Multi-Melta) - 205
Land Raider - 255
Dreadnought (2x TL Autocannon, Psybolt Ammo) - 135
Dreadnought (2x TL Autocannon, Psybolt Ammo) - 135
Total 2,000

It's not 100% ideal but it does the job well enough. The 10 man unit has a Razorback so that Crowe can steal it on turn 1 and have a ride. They start in the Land Raider, and the 9 man unit starts in the Stormraven with the Librarian. if you get the 1st turn, deploy the Stormraven and move Flat-Out for a 3+ cover save with Shroduing. If you get the 2nd turn, reserve the Stormraven and bring it on flat-out. Dawn of War is actually an ideal scenario for this list, because it protects your Stormraven, and all of your firepower is mobile.

Hope that helps!

@Aldarionn hey man, thanks for the input. To clear things up on the unit i am going to combat squad, The 4 Psycannons and 1 normal will indeed sit on a objective. The Spare Rhino will sit idely by waiting If they need it in a emergency OR if i need to shuffle crowe around the board. The Razorback will be for the 2nd half of that unit, keeping it hidden possibly behind the Landraiders, to eventually shoot out to snatch a objective, or maybe even sneek long side around the board, or again whatever i need them to do. I know Ven dreads are pricey, I do however (after running them a few weeks now) feel that bs of 5 and re roll pen's against me is worth the extra points.

I could tinker around with the list.. turn them into normal dreads, turn the land raiders into storm ravens and have a huge chunk of points left over, possibly enough for another Small unit with a razorback (maybe) I do like the libby idea, and have been trying to find a way to stick him in my list i have won tourneys with.

I am for sure going to write down your list, and give it a try. I like the look of it and the speed of the raven Does come in handy alot of the time. Equal to the survivability of the Land raider.

Oh the Venerable Dreads are totally worth the points. Grey Knights have the ONLY Venerable Dreads that are worth it. They are just too expensive in a list that includes multiple Land Raiders IMO. That said, whatever works for you is cool, but if you use that list please drop back into this thread or PM me and let me know how it worked out! I always like to hear how my suggestions do if someone actually uses them
