Not sure about the SW. Have a tournament in couple weeks and trying to decide what to take so I know what I need to get.

I assume the Rune Priest and Grey Hunters are taken only for psychic defense? If so, I would strongly recommend purchasing a Rhino for mobility and resilience. And you might as well take a Flamer for the Grey Hunters - it's free.

Make sure you list what lore or what Space Wolf psychic powers you will be using in your army list. I recommend Living Lightning/JotWW... using Jaws on a Riptide is an amazing thing, lol.

I would also recommend a Quadgun for your ADL. Additional anti-air with interceptor is never a bad thing, even at BS3.

If you cut Marbo and drop the Lascannons in the IS's down to Autocannons you will have 100 points available. I would get a Rhino for the Grey Hunters, a Quadgun for the ADL, and a 4th Plasmagun for the CCS. Right at 1,750!

Those are possibilities but I like having the Comma Array to help get my Vendettas in quicker.

But what about dropping the SW for another Manticore? Would obviously combine the two Medusas to make a spot for it.

You aren't even really using the Space Wolves, so I'd drop them for a second Manticore and a fourth Plasma Gun in your CCS.

So more like this then? I feel that the Platoon will not have the leadership required to pass any tests and will run.

Then leave the PCS with the platoon..
Toss one group of plasma vets into vendetta use the points saved from not having them in a chimera to add in an Astropath to the CCS and swap the comms relay to a quad gun Manned by said PCS and you may have enough to add a commisar to the platoon ..(with a bit of fiddling) this fixes the platoons Leadership ..and you still have something to bring in your vendettas when needed ..and get something hard to kill with interceptor

Okay, reworked the list a little and this is what I have. But I do not know what to do with the remaining 130pts. And I do not want to add another Vendetta.
