Alright, after playing my previous list against Marines, then eldar, I decided to change it up a bit.
Primeris Psyker w/Force Staff
MeltaVets w/chimera
PlasmaVets w/chimera, carapace armor
Executioner w/Heavy Bolter, Plasma Cannon sponsons, camo
Exterminator w/Heavy Bolter(or flamer?), Heavy Bolter Sponsons
Basilisk.
My last army seem to hit a wall when it came to dealing with infantry. My tank in the first game was drop pod killed by Vets, but in the second game it took out a dark reaper squad (eldar, in cover) in turn one before immobilizing itself, then killing itself at turn 4. The heavy flamers on the chimera(and sentinels) didn't seem to put in enough unsaved wounds, and only my infantry seem to take out the enemy. Sadly, if they were close enough for my soldiers, then my chimeras were going to die.
I figure I'm giving up a scoring unit for more overall kill power, and to take away focus (at least some) from my executioner. I plan on keeping my vets (and everything else) on the defensive, until I have an opening to grab objectives. If it comes to kill points I'd rather draw the enemy into cross fire then out in the open. So far I've only fought against one rhino with demolisher cannon...for some reason my opponents don't take pieplates against me.
Also, this list is based on what models I have at the moment.
Thoughts?
