Still starting out and trying to stay down-scaled until I get some games under my belt.

So my real question here, at 500 points, how scary is Mephiston coming at you?

497 points with Mephiston:
HQ - Mephiston - 250
Troops - Assault Squad (6) - 1 Flamer - 121
Troops - Assault Squad (6) - 1 Meltagun - 126

498 points without Mephiston
HQ - Librarian - Jump Pack - 115
HQ - Librarian - Jump Pack - 115
Troops - Assault Squad (7) - 1 Meltagun - 142
Troops - Assault Squad (6) - 1 Meltagun - 126

Would either of these make for a good beginner game? (And how competitive of a list are these?)

I like the second list better, because Mephiston is 250 points, which is literally half of your army, and the Librarians seem more appealing.

May your dice roll eternal 6's

Conventional wisdom says Mephiston is way too expensive for a 500pt list. But if you think about it, how many people are going to field anything that can take him down in a 500pt game?
