--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thought long and hard about this list, and realized that there are several possibilities. Deployment would be based on whatever I am up against, but Coteaz would always attach himself to the Purifiers and provide DZ defense, as well as the combat-squaded Dev squad, and the tac squad would be manning the quad-gun and/or objective-sitting. The vet squad would drop pod in, combat squad, and melta to death any AV 14 or high threat vehicles or units. The Librarian would play various roles depending on deployment; on a more offensive deployment, I can attach him to the vet squad to provide Divination support and a 4++ save due to the PFG for more survivability and to give the enemy something to keep him busy, or, more defensively (i.e. against Daemons, drop pod armies, or sneaky 'Nids), I can attach him to the tac squad in my DZ to give all within 3" (including Coteaz and the Purifiers due to how the PFG works) a 4++, and provide Divination support to the Devs. The strike squads would also provide versatile roles; primarily they'll deep strike in to back up the vet squad (if its still alive), thus giving the enemy multiple threats in his DZ all the while the devs will be blasting away with missile launchers, along with the quad-gun; defensively, I can keep them on the board at deployment and warp quake away, coupled with Coteaz's I've Been Expecting You... with the Purifiers, causing a lot hell to Daemons and drop pod armies, and sneaky 'Nids.


Looking for input to further refine it. Thoughts?

You should really make the strikes 1 10 man squad, that way psybolt is cheaper and more effective, and the justicar is better with a halberd not a hammer.

Your troops look like they are there because you have to take them, not very good. 2 cheep strikes squads and a naked tac squad.Drop the purifiers and go for 3 10 man strikes, 2 psycannon, psybolt. Then use spare points to upgrade the tac squad so its more usefull.

Thats my view anyway

Who will be manning the quad gun? Will they have a Divination re-roll?

If that is the case, you might want to consider the lascannon on the ADL instead as you would still get the re-roll to hit.

I'm not sold on the allies. DA and GK are both great codexes, but Im not sure the mix here is the best way to use them together. It looks like you are bringing DA for 2 main reasons: AA and suicide AT. PsyDreads are excellent at both and you can always deep strike a Strike Squad. Land Raiders generally have to come towards you to dump their contents and you will be ready to shoot both down with your GK.

May the WAAC and pretzels be with you.
