Hay maing,

How about switching the raptors' weaponry to melta and giving that 10man CSM unit the x2 plasmagun?

Holy crap, 5 raptors with 2x melta in the last book was 120. Crazy

I am a big fan of your Sorcerer setup.

Suppose having 2x Meltas and a Combi-Plasma is a bit inefficient, good call on that. And thanks for the comment on the Sorcerer. I'm wondering if it's worth taking the Brand though: if he rolls a Witchfire power, I've invested points in making sure he's more than likely to get the Psychic Test off, meaning that the Brand would be a bit worthless if he gets a good power, although I suppose an Ap3 Torrent flamer would come in handy even if he's got a good Witchfire.

Any more comments?

List edited. Any more comments?

With the spare points you could buy mastery level 3 to your sorcerer.

With 25 extra points you could always add a sigil for the sorcerer.

I'm not that sure about the Sigil, he has ablative wounds in the form of the 9-man unit he's with, although the 4++ could come in handy for Perils or challenges. If I can spare some points somewhere else I could give him MoT for a 3++.

All comments still appreciated.

I would probably take MOK on the raptors for those extra rage attacks - I ran a pack of ten with the LC and melta this past week - they were fantastic -romped through a load of grey knights before they were taken down - if you can spare the points get the khorne banner for furious charge.

MoK might be a good idea actually, 2 S8 Ap1 Meltas then assault with each guy getting 4/5 attacks on the charge isn't that bad.
