Pretty straight forward drop and pop army. Every one starts mounted up, on games where I win the first turn I deploy as normal rush 24" for my scout move to provide cover should my opponent manage to capture the initiative. Should they fail I should only have to move my vens 6 inches to get my whole army in rapid fire range. Everything deploys Command squad issues 4 orders if possible and fires at the closest unit. The Vens then hit hard targets i.e. Monsterous creatures, heavy armor. The Vets then unleash on w/e is left.

Should I fail to get first turn the whole army out flanks and comes in on 3+ turn 2. The astropath allows me to reroll my table edges which pretty well allows me to guarantee I come in where I want. Then the strat is the same as above pure drop and pop Ven's focus hard targets and Vets mop up the squishies.

This list has 22 melta shots, 21 Twin-linked Lascanon shots, 42 Lasgun shots or 84 rapidfire, and 42 heavy bolter shots every turn. 6 Scoring units and reduces my opponents reserve rolls by 1, has 7 armor 12 Vehicles, 70 infantry, and for the fun of it Marbo.

No thoughts or critiques??

I'm not an IG player but I love the list and think it would do well. I'm not sure how well it will do against a non-vehicle horde but that is still plenty of small arms fire. Against any marines this should be fun.

MoO is not the greatest for 30pts. He misses a lot.

Maybe bring one set of vets with plasma guns?

And maybe drop the Heavy bolters from the birds?

And maybe bring some hydras for some good hard hitting units.

Other than that, I also dont know, I have not tried running this many vendettas at one time. Table space might become an issue

*Creed* not *Kreed*
Other than that not bad I think its pretty good.
