Hi DakkaDakka guys,I am looking for peoples opinions on the list I have written for 600 points, this is quite a common points level in my area as people dont have a huge amount of time to play. My list is as follows:


HQ - Commander (Warlord)
Iridium Armour
Multi-Spectrum Sensor Suite
Puretide Engram Nuro-Chip
= 145

Troops - Kroot Squad
10x Kroot
Kroot Hound
= 65

Troops - Kroot Squad
10x Kroot
Kroot Hound
= 65

Elites - XV104 Riptide
Ion Accelerator
Twin-linked Fusion Blaster
= 185

Heavy Support - Broadside Team
2x Broadsides
High Yield Missile Pods
Smart Missile Systems
Early Warning Override
= 140

TOTAL = 600

Tactics: Essentially the Commander joins the Broadsides in some ruins with a decent view of the battlefield, normally very central. The only other thing that deploys is the riptide normally on a flank but occasionally close to the Broadsides for support. I reserve the two Kroot squads. Then I would try to bring on both Kroot Squads on the same side, where they can really lay down the firepower on Infantry Models, from outflanking with Acute Senses. This is the basic idea but I would love to hear your thoughts on both the list and its tactics.

Why not let the commander join the riptide so his big pie plate gets ignore cover? That alone should vaporize anything the opponent can cook up in a 600 points army.

looks good. Yeah, I would recommend placing the commander with the riptide sometimes, depending on the opposing list.
