1. Emperor's Champion cannot be your only HQ in 6th Edition you have to take someone else.

2. Assault Terminators are equipped with what? LC or TH/SS? Are you taking FC or Tank Hunters?

3. Sword Bretheren are terrible, put them back in the box they came out of...

4. Every one of your troop units really needs a rhino transport, unless you plan on sitting them in a building shooting a single missile launcher all game.

6. Really is no point in taking 6 land speeders, with the 6th Edition rules they will die pretty quick because they are an easy target with what else you have on the table, but if you REALLY wanted to have 4+ of them on the table, just have 2 HQ and 4 Troop choices and you can x2 FOC slot and have them all as individual speeders flying around the table.


Example:

HQ
160 - Master of Sanctity (Adamantite Mantle, Storm Shield, Power Fist)
140 - Emperor's Champion (Accept Any Challenge...)

Elite
245 - x5 Sword Bretheren Assault Terminators (x3 TH/SS, x2 LC, Furious Charge) - Drop Pod
245 - x5 Sword Bretheren Assault Terminators (x3 TH/SS, x2 LC, Furious Charge) - Drop Pod

Troop
228 - x7 Initiates (x5 BP/CCW, x1 Power Fist, x1 Plasma Gun, Frag Grenades) - x3 Neophytes - Rhino (Extra Armor, Smoke Launchers)
228 - x7 Initiates (x5 BP/CCW, x1 Power Fist, x1 Plasma Gun, Frag Grenades) - x3 Neophytes - Rhino (Extra Armor, Smoke Launchers)
228 - x7 Initiates (x5 BP/CCW, x1 Power Fist, x1 Plasma Gun, Frag Grenades) - x3 Neophytes - Rhino (Extra Armor, Smoke Launchers)
95 - x5 Initiates (x4 BP/CCW, x1 Lascannon)

Fast Attack
85 - Landspeeder Typhoon (Cyclone Missile Launcher, Multi-Melta)
85 - Landspeeder Typhoon (Cyclone Missile Launcher, Multi-Melta)

Didnt they FAQ our Terminators so we cannot use drop pods?

Also, I would look at your MoS, terminator armor, and put him in a termie squad, they do a lot better in something like that compared to a crusader troop choice.

Combine two of those shooting squads into a footslog CC force with the EC. Power Fist or Sword and Melta. Frags. Throw a Chaplain in for re-rolls.

Forget Sword Bretheren. Use them as fancy Crusaders.

Termis A) cant use DropPods and B) cant assault from a Deep Strike. IF you want to teleport them in, switch em out to shooty with 2x Cyclones (or Assault Cannons depending on enemy). I would lose one squad of Typhoons and get a LRC in there to drive your Assault Termis up the field. I believe you can pack 8 in there; take two with TH/SS and give the rest LCs. Take the Chappy out of the Crusader squad, put him in TDA and stuff him in the LRC and things will get bloody quick.

Beyond that, the Speeders and Preds look good.

Correct me if I'm wrong but our Land Speeders cannot have both the Typhoon Launchers and MM. If you take the MM your only other equipment option is the HF.

I would take a bike chaplain and some bikes , as a rapid response team . the shoty units are too big 5 man is enough all las/plas . hth terminators imo arent optimal , technicly you could take a huge wall of TH/SS , but without the +1I from FC or an HQ they are as good as they were in the 5th . If you want pod termis , you could take belial and some DW termis with TH/SS and a cyclon . The other termi squad I would take would be a shoty one . But then you wouldnt take the bike chaplain and bike squad. It would still be ok , because you could buy a foot HQ and take the termis as a honor guard and save the points for one termi as the minimal size is 4+HQ.

Correcting, you are wrong. You are selecting the wrong kind of Landspeeder

I like to keep the heavy bolter on the typhoon. It has good range and I am not fond of going forward. Plus the MM just seems a lot of points.

Also rhinos and razorbacks are really expensive, I would try drop pods or foot slogging or land raiders if you want to assault.

Sword Brethren don't do bad when I use them, don't listen to the nay-sayers!

I have used sword brethern in the past. Yeah, not worth it at all for CC, they are just expensive crusaders, you get a SGT and a fighting co champ. Thats it. Now i have use them with dual melta gun in a drop pod. that is effective. First turn come down and pop open a tank. Passengers inside cannot assault you, so you can get 1 more turn of shooting them before the fun happens.
