This is mostly for fun, so I'm not worried about dominating tournaments. I mean, come on- I'm a Thousand Sons player. Do you think this list takes advantage of the Chapter Tactics and Sicarius? Do you feel like it's a good example of a balanced list, with enough Troops and mixed unit types to take on most missions and enemies? I considered changing Sicarius for a Chapter Master with Relic Blade. Thoughts?

Scythes of the Emperor and the Dark Angels allies will give me a great opportunity to paint something besides blue for a while..

Looks like a pretty solid list, but a couple suggestions.

1) For the DA contingent, try taking a Mastery Level 2 Librarian. Divination is soooo strong, and it would synergize nicely with the rest of the list. You can still stick the combi-plas on him if you wanted.

2) I would consider dropping the devastators down to a 7 or 6 man squad and putting the pooints into a couple more combi-meltas for the Sternguard. If your going to make an alpha strike unit, make it as bad ass as possible. Another option if you want to keep the wound models is an 8 man squad but turn the LC's into ML's. Not sure on the exact points for a combi-melta, but it gets you some points for only 1 less Str. against vehicles.

Just some thoughts, solid list though!

Thanks for the suggestions.

The idea with the Devastators is to break each 10man unit into a 5man team with 3x Flakk missiles and a 5 man team with the Signum and a Lascannon for popping the odd tanks. Is that a viable tactic should I choose to keep 10man? If not, I will definitely consider your suggestion.

nice list, but I don't exactly see what the dark angels add, other than an excuse to paint different colors .

I admit- that's all it is.. but the Deathwing are Fearless and have Hatred: CSM, so that's good because I'll be fighting Nurgle occasionally.. and my Sternguard can provide a locator beacon.

Seriously.. that DV Company Master is too cool to just let sit around.

Thanks for the comments.
