dont know if the storm raven is a ggood idea but the termies and libby need to get to combat.
is deepstriking thundernators a good idea.

Deepstriking them is probably not a great idea. They have quite a large footprint, so can mishap easily, also it gives your opponent effectively a free turn to shoot at them, as they will have (generally) less cover that way.


If you only have 1 I prefer the land raider, because against ranged shooting it is more durable than the storm raven, and works better with the razorbacks, all advancing together up the field.

Mephiston would work well moving up behind the tanks so the opponent cannot draw LOS to him, so he can get to their lines without having been shot at all.

I quite like the list though.

cheers for the reply. the storm raven and attack bike could be swapped for a land raider. storm ravens armour is always under estimated i feel.

I feel the SR is always under estimated as i have found they last for the majority of the battle. Also if you can get their cargo into the fray quickly, your opponent will most likely be concentrating on them instead. Plus with all the AC you have on your razors you should be able to deal with armour rather easily.

I tend to agree. A land raider is more forgiving to use IMO.

al test both lists a couple of times each and see which is better, against DE storm raven will be far better.
