3 Deathstrikes

If you really don't mind losing, I would say go for the deathstrikes (as in all 3) if even one or two hit you will kill a lot, if all three get the chance to fire you can easily kill 1000+ points worth of enemies.

Edit: Also there is no center of blast, so you can engulf an entire squadron of vehicles in a strength 10 AP 1 blast against their side armour.

Side Armour you say

It brings me to 1845...

And I can't really take anything off.

I could lose a squad of rough riders at most I suppose
