Please give your comments! thanks. Main thing I'm concerned with is that executioner is almost 1/4 of my army... is that okay? or is it too expensive to take in a 1k game?

Grazie

Yeah the executioner is fine, the sponsons optional. The blobs with the commissars wont really help much, you'd be better off loosing the commissars and then you can get another LC squad. Its pretty lean points wise, but a regimental standard would be useful. You could loose a HWT, and get the standard then fill up the rest on specials, maybe on the PCSs?

Or if you have some preference for mortars, loose the plasma sponsons for the standard. They get hot and can now damage the tank unlike the executioner turret (unless there's some FAQ or something thats changed it).

The main platoons are an expensive way to get lascannons. Mortars are generally accepted as mediocre, a few extra points to get autocannon allows you to take on anything upto light tanks; and can sit in good cover on objectives.
I think the stormtroopers (assuming you areinfiltrating them) requires that you get the first turn otherwise they will be sorted out very quickly. If you hold them back on your side of the board they may not see real action until later in the game and almost end up being wasted points.

If you lost a few of the las cannons and commissars you could be investing in chimeras to get the S5 and S6 shots from their weapons + a plasma shot from the hatch. But htta goes away from your two blob theme.
