Simple question, is 1 Stormtalon with Skyhammers enough at 1000 points? Or should i take 2 for increased survivability and also use them for ground attack? The rest of my list is: 1 Librarian, 3 tactical squads in Rhinos with MM/MG and a thunderfire. If i take 2 with Skyhammers it equals 1000 points exactly. If 1 is enough any suggestions on what i could spend the 125 points on?

I'm looking at a similar setup, also at 1000 pts. For me it's a toss up between two tfcs and one talon, or two talons and one tfc. I'm interested in the response here.

I'd take two talons and one tfc at 1k since at that level you see more light armor, and less real AA.
1 TFC will still be able to handle your anti-horde needs, and if you run the talons with AC/Skyhammers, they put out a good number of shots as well, and cover you well against enemy airpower.
