Our summer escalation league is wrapping up and the playoffs are starting after next friday so I'm going to try to tweak my list to make it nastier to ensure an undefeated season, but I want to incorporate my Dark Angels as well. I'm assuming we are doing the playoffs at 2000 points so that's where I'm planning my build. The opponents I will be facing consist of two Eldar players and one Tau player, all of which I have beaten soundly, but I need some unexpected spice to the list in the flavor of some ravenwing black knights and some deathwing knights. Those two paired together have been incredibly deadly and that unexpected element should give me the edge over lists with Wraithknights and Riptides.

I have nothing concrete in mind other than my required units and I'm thinking of taking the aegis defense line with the quadgun to deal with air and light armor. My required units are:

Nemesor Zahndrek

Overlord with a CCB, phase shifter, sempternal weave, warscythe and mindshackle scarabs

2 units of warriors inside ghost arks and a unit of immortals inside a nightscythe.

Other than that I'm open to ideas for my list but I'm planning on running ravenwing black knights as a command squad for a hq on a bike with a darkshroud for support with 2 annihilation barges flanking to benefit from the darkshroud. That group I plan to use against light armor, heavy infantry and as a deepstrike point for knights or terminators. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

How many is a "unit"? 5? What models do you have?

Given crons, why do you need an ADL for anti air and light armor? Who is manning the quad gun?

More info please.
