I'm expecting to fight either Necrons or Tyranids with this list, I'm in an escalation league and those armies are generally what is being played in my points bracket currently.

If you're expecting to fight Nids and Crons, then why do you spend 25 points on VotLW for your csm and bikesquads? Is it for the ld boost, because if it is then I wold think you dont need it. The high toughness of your troops and bikes will halt some casualties making morale tests something less feared. Also consider that you have a healthy ld 9 on your champs, so dont fret about it

I would also lose the Gift of Mutation on your unit champs. For the most part you'll get something that increases his cc abilities, but your squads arent tooled up for cc.

Hope this makes sense.

You make some good points. I added in votlw for the leadership, and potential battles against SM. I'm expecting crons or nids, but if they don't show up for the escalation league game I'll probably have to fight a SM list. I'm trying to hedge my bets. Oh.. I should have mentioned, I equipped all of my marines with CCWs too.

No. I ran it for a few games, but didn't like it very much. It felt a bit too.. gamey. If I can't win games without the Heldrake, then I don't deserve to win.

change the daemon prince from the daemon allies to a bloodrhirster and drop the rewards from the bloodletter champ to get two greater rewards for the thirster.

What advantage would that incur?

I couldn't agree more
