Executing Exarch

I don't see the need for the second hamey. The first one gives you access to wracks as troops, and maybe a pain token for the blasterborn. I would rather have a 10th wrack+liquifier gun instead of the second pain token from the hamey in that boad. Unless you are going to start him with the hellions for FNP and throw him into the wrack boat, then I can understand(I would probably just throw him in the trueborn ride instead, sans token with venom and liquifier) The stunclaw gimmick is not as good as it could be because you cant pull an IC out of a challenge. I would rather get a power lance for the same cost or a venom blade for free. Also, max them out to 20 hellions as the baron's stealth is a force multiplier. If you are taking scourges, dont ever give them dark lances. You are paying a premium for mobility, so stick to mobile at in the form of blasters and heat lances.Want some dark lance snipers, get 3 trueborn with 2 dark lances. You could almost throw em in a venom for the same cost as the scourges. Shatterfield missiles are better than monoscythe for forcing wounds, and since they cost the same I would grab them instead. They are also decent against armor in a pinch(Voidraven should be shooting tanks first) A scissorhand on the hamey is a decent place to kill points, also shattershards are fantastic. Aethersails on the wrack raider to get it close is not a bad idea either.

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.

I second what was said above, I assume the second haemie is there to give the hellions his pain token in the first turn and then join the wracks, so I would give him a liquifier gun too so he can fill the shoes of the wrack your losing.
Also I would drop the scourges for another ravager with ns.

Ok I updated the list and I realized I made some grave mathematical oopsies so the list is probably not as good as I thought, I'm also realizing that a hellion spam list might not fair so well against my ussual opponent's basilisk and leman russ spam, even with a cover save a 445pt clump of jump infantry will probably attract alot of fire and be destroyed by the 3 str9 ap3 blasts and the 4 str8 ap3 blasts. Automatically Appended Next Post: Re done list, going for a different approach: HQ -Haemonculus, 115pts liquifer gun, venom blade, webway portal, shattershard Elites -trueborn x4, 178pts 4 blasters venom, splinter cannon -trueborn x3, 56pts darklance Troops -wracks x9, 190pts liquifer gun, acothyst w/venom blade, raider w/nightshields and aethersails -wyches x10, 235pts 2x hydra gauntlets, haywires, hekatrix w/powerlance, raider w/ nightshields and aethersails -warriors x10, 115pts splinter cannon, blaster -warriors x5, 60pts blaster -warriors x5, 60pts blaster Fast attack - 3x reavers, 78pts heat lance -5x scourges, 140pts 2 darklances Heavy support -Voidraven, 155pts nightshields -Ravager, 115pts nightshields, 3 darklance Strategy would be to do heavy reserves, start with wrack raider with haemi, wyche raider, ravager, blaster born, reavers on table, move raiders and venom as far up as possible first turn, lay down webway as cover for raider, then next turn and all subsequent turns hope for reserve rolls, bringing in all warriors and the 3 man trueborn from the webway to hold objectives and shoot at stuff, bring in voidraven asap to knock out tanks and flyers, deepstrike scourges to get one round of guaranteed shooting perhaps on side armour of a tank, use reavers to pop one tank, bring wracks and wyches into assault as fast as possible and if needed wyches can take out ANY tank in one round of assault, blaster born--> AT of course, ravager and raiders support with darklances (although i might run one raider with a disintegrator to take out heavy infantry) what do you think? Please make suggestions that only include those models plus up to 9 incubi, an archon, duke sliscus, dire avengers, an autarch or different options on those models as those are the only other models I have/ have budget to get or convert
