OK

So I playtested the first list today against a FMC and MC heavy Tyranid list and it barely won. My only worry is my lack of anti-fliers for a tournament coming up, that also allows Knights. It's using the forge the narrative missions of which the first one is objectives which you get points for holding every turn so that's why plague marines instead of cultists, and the other missions are purge the alien and the relic. I am thinking about adding in a dakkajet. Any thought would be appreciated.

Here's the first list:

Nurgle biker lord with black mace, sigil, melta bombs

5 Plague Marines w/ 2 meltas

5 Plague Marines w/ 2 flamers

5 Plague Marines

Baledrake

5 Nurgle spawn

2 Obliterators MoN

2 Obliterators MoN

1 Obliterator MoN

Bikerboss power klaw, cybork, bosspole

Biker nobz all with cybork:
3 Vanilla nobz
1 power klaw nob w/ bosspole and waaagh banner
1 painboy w/ grot orderly
1 power klaw nob

I'm thinking about dropping the single obliterator, the flamers, a vanilla nob (then adding a big choppa), and adding in a dakkajet. What are all your thoughts?

Dakka jets are worth it
. especially if you're playing against anything else with fliers. There cheap and if you get the extra big shoota on it that's 18 s6 twinlinked shots on your waagh. Bring it in use your waagh and shoot down an enemy flier first turn you come in. Try to remember to roll for it first for reserves so they have to choose to wait and shoot the heldrake or shoot the jet.

When in doubt do what seems hardest

Sure, go for the dakka jet. Split up your oblits into a squad of 2, 1, and 1
