I think the bottom of the list looks sloppy. You're spending a lot of points on leman russes that are only ever going to fire a single weapon at a time, and in the case of the battlecannon, the worst single weapon you can fire on a russ.
If you ditch the ADL, the vendetta the HWS (that's just going to be blown away instantly), and the meltabombs, you have 320 points. Turn that into 3 chimeras for the platoon and one for the CCS, and you've got 100 points left over to equip those russes properly.
For example, you could run a list like...
CCS - 3x plasma, krak grenades, chimera
PCS - 3x melta, chimera
PIS - melta, chimera
PIS, melta, chimera
PCS - 3x melta, chimera
PIS - melta, chimera
PIS, melta, chimera
Vanquisher - lascannon, multimeltas
Vanquisher - lascannon, multimeltas
Executioner - lascannon, plasma cannons
This gives you WAY more AV12, and more durable scoring units, and lots more, better guns.

WHY would you lose the detta???? Now he has no flyer defence at all! And again with you proclaiming LRBTs to be the "worst" Leman Russ. As you and Peregrine have argued this MANY times on MANY different threads, I feel I should step in at this point and tell the OP that there is evidence for both sides, but it depends on a number of things in your meta. Just because you, Ailaros, hate LRBT, flyers, and FW ( IIRC), does not mean you have to impose those limitations on others, claiming that it is the thing to do.

Note to the reader: my username is not arrogance. No, my name is taken from the most excellent of commanders: Lord Castellan Creed, of the Imperial Guar- I mean Astra Militarum - who has a special rule known only as "Tactical Genius"... Although nowhere near as awesome as before, it now allows some cool stuff for the Guar- Astra Militarum - player. FEAR ME AND MY TWO WARLORD TRAITS. |
