So i am doing some play testing for a Tournament and as my Meta is mostly 3+ save ( on Fu*king Everything ) so i have to make my list accordingly . There are a few nidzilla list that have been accounted for somewhat and i hope reflect in my list . Everything is WYSIWYG in this list ( not required ) and i'm limited on being able to add models in ( I.E the Third plasma gunner comment that will pop up ) If you have questions on how i plan to use something please don't hesitate to ask .

List looks pretty solid. You should consider basilisks, because if you hit on their shot you can ignore most of their cover saves. Basilisks do serious work against tauzilla for commander sniping for me, YMMV. I find that plasma sponson are a bit of a waste on non executioner tanks. I believe in keeping anti-tank units cheap because they tend to be bullet sponges. Other than that I can't find any other complaint. Good luck to you in your tourny.

Edit: Can't comment on forge-world because I haven't used any of it before.

Well on the FW Vulture i have frequently seen it wipe entire squads of marines in one turn of shooting .....


Well what sponsons would you suggest ( if any ) to throw onto something such as the Vanquisher ? I was trying to maximize firepower

I like to put MM sponsons if anything. They are fairly cost effective if you can get them into range.
