Is 1850 exactly.

The list is effective, but boring, in play testing. Stand like 18th century line infantry and slug it out. Kroot infiltrate in front of the line as a screen. FlakkO goes with either the large crisis team or the broadsides, the two singles are deep strikers. HRR broadsides because 36" isn't going to cut it. Kroot can outflank if the mission calls for it, and the wall of EMP is hilarious (I've bagged a land raider, furioso, pair of wave serpents...)

The list is clearly vulnerable to artillery as a horde. It would come down to a race between sniping TFCs or out flanking basilisks.

This is my list from 4th edition, which received all sorts of buffs with the new book and I want to enjoy it while it is good. Ideas include adding krootox or swapping for plasma suits.

I'd be interested in any C&C.
