Thoughts on the list? I have 44 troops, 7 tanks, and a good scoring presence with two tactical squads and a scout squad. The command squad/captain and the tactical squads provide a solid army core, and have plenty of support units as well as a forward assault unit in the form of the Terminators.

New rules say you need 2 HQ, 4 Troops minimum at 2k +

As it is, the list doesn't look too bad

Where does it say that? its says you MAY takeextras

It says MAY. Also, I'm using this for NOVA, which is 1 force org.

You *MAY* take another primary detachment. Only at that point must you have 2 HQs and 4 Troops, but not to make this a rules fourm.

I think that it is a well balanced list, but I would caution you on having points sinks such as the Terminator Assault Squad and Company Command Squad. They make up a major point of your army and against Necrons and Wraithguard Eldar you may have some trouble. So I hope that you have some tactics behind the list oo.

SO! The epistolary is given Divination, which will be a great boost to my shooting units, which I now have more of. Thoughts?

Hmmm.... At first i though that it would be better to have a Stormtalon than a Dev squad, then i remembered that Devs can take Flakk Missiles on their missile Launchers. However, this isn't possible yet, so maybe another ST would be better for anti-air.

I'm not quite sure why you have an ally detachment of BA, they are all SM, it doesn't matter what colour their armour is

Extra armor is even a worse buy than it used to be.

Could save the 30pts and buy different weapons on your tactical squads.

I'd suggest not having plasma pistols on your sergeants, losing them to their own pistol sucks.

I'm not a fan of Power Fists on Captains, since part of their strength lies in their Initiative 5. Then again, if you are expecting him to be partying with enemy TEQs, it makes sense.

Devastators cannot take Flakk Missiles, to the above.

He took a BA detachment because, guessing from his avatar, he's painted as Imperial Fists.

and his ally BA is also having the death company... which ar notaavailabe in vanillas

The BA ally is to get Death Company and so that I can get a Divination Librarian.

I tried the first version of the list (with command squad) today against a nasty Necron list, tied on primary despite horrible rolling but lost on First Blood. I think once I tweak it to be more like the most recent list, it will be alright.

EA refers to Extra Armour, not extra arm
