Hi guys, I have a couple questions for any BA players out there who have been playing 6th ed longer than I have (sadly, I've only played 2 games so far. 1 narrow victory and 1 epic defeat.)

I currently own the following:
-Captain magnetized all weapon options, so he can be flexible)
-5 man DC with jump packs (magnetized the packs)
-10 man Assault Marines, sgt with power fist and plasma pistol
-10 man Tactical Marines, weapons magnetized too (I know, lots of magnets! I like to keep my army as flexible as possible)
-Rhino
-Baal Predator (magnetized)
-WIP Furioso Dreadnaught. I'm working on him as I type.

Where should I go from here? I was thinking of getting two Predators with autocannon and Scottish Female Cannon side sponsons (I've heard thats the best way to go with this guys.) I wanted to get one more 10 man Assault squad too.

In regards to the Furioso, what should I equip him with? I wanted to go both Blood Talons, but I hear others vouch for the Blood Fists as better. I want the dread to be regular Furioso.

Any help from you guys is greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately, BA captains are terrible. Magnetize a libby up instead. I like my libbies with axes.

DC with jump packs are overpriced. Good thing you magnetized.

I usually run only one ASM squad, and put my libby and my SP in it. I give all three ICs axes and deny all challenges, keeping two axes in play.

For tacs, I like plasma. It meshes well with bolter range.

Furiosos should be fragnought configuration riding a drop pod. The blood talons are highly overrated and we lack good ways to get them into HTH.
