Hmm.. I made a new army list, Just experimenting a bit, How does this look?

--HQ--
Commander Shadowsun
Cadre Fireblade

--Troops--
12 Fire Warriors
12 Fire Warriors
12 Fire Warriors
13 Kroot, 2 Kroot Hound
13 Kroot, 2 Kroot Hound

--Elite--
3 Crisis Suits, 6 Fusion Blasters
3 Crisis suits, 6 Missile Pods
Riptide, Ion Accellerator

--Fast Attack--
6 Pathfinders
6 Pathfinders
6 Pathfinders

--Heavy Support--
3 Broadsides, High Yield Missile Pods, Velocity tracker
Hammerhead, Smart Missile System, Longstrike, Disruption Pod
Hammerhead, Ion Cannon, Smart Missile System, Disruption Pod

1920

Shadowsun goes in the group of Crisis Suits that have Fusion Blasters, Their job is to go hunt tanks, And the Railgun Hammerhead with Longstrike helps them from a distance. The pathfinders, I dont realy want to have 3 groups, Aspecialy such small fragile groups, But everyone everywhere says to do it so I might aswell try it. The Broadsides are to hunt flyers that fly arround, Or if there are no flyers then hunt light vehicles and heavy infantry I guess whle the two groups of kroot infiltrate behind enemy lines. I have 2 kroot hounds per group because.. You get 4 in the box... XD What else can I add/change to get the army to 2000 points? Maybe another group of Fire Warriors..

Looks solid, I would go ethereal over fire blade but that is a personal preference.

Its a pretty good list though as above stated i think it would benefit the army to take an ethereal.

If you want you could upgrade one of the fusion crisis suits into a sergeant and take a pure tide chip. that way the second turn they can start using actual tank hunter. also might want to take a target lock for multiple vehicle destruction if need be.

Pathfinders are ok and will do muuuch better with a ethereal LD bubble.

you dont need two hounds as they are really only there to give acute sense now.

Hmm.. dident think of the Puretide chip.. Might be worth it for them. And like I said, I only took 2 hounds per group because you get 4 in the box.. And I think it would be a waste to buy 4 and only use 2.. XD I guess a Ethereal is good too, Can give a extra shot at half range to the groups aswell.

That extra shoot at rapid fire range is gold since you can do it on the move and it affects FW, GD and Kroot rifles.
