I'm really digging Plan C, Huron with huge infiltrating choppy squads looks extremely tasty. I'm convinced that CSM can be very competitive if they can assault turn 2, otherwise they get shot up to bits in today's meta.

Wondering if you would try out a couple of Maulerfiends instead of the Raptors? And I think you would have points left over to put the Khorne Lord on a Juggernaut to boost his staying power.

Anyways, talking on the battle report linked to at the top, I've got a bit of a problem. In order to infiltrate an IC with something in this army, I've got to waste one of my D3's giving infiltration to just the IC.

Pardon my confusion here. So if an IC is attached to a unit you still have to use an extra one of your D3's to infiltrate the unit plus the attached IC? I did not know this. Bummer.

I thought the thesis was how to hit 'em fast and hit 'em hard?

Lets see, you don't want drakes, spawn or maulerfiends .... so that leaves bikes! You could even embed a biker lord or a juggy lord. Those are my favorite lords - tough as nails and hard to insta kill.

I hate you dropped the berzerkers, I like to think that paying the extra 4 points per model for fearless and WS 5 is well worth it. Personally I'd go juggy lord w/ bikers just to get berzerkers back.

Also, any thoughts about adding in some cheapo cultists just for objective grabs?
