This is my first list and I am looking to walk into my local GW store today after work and put this order in. Help needed! Thanks guys!

Your one flaw is this: sob are currently by and large on indefinite back order. Your going to need to measure up what's in stock right now and track down what isn't via eBay. Otherwise you could be waiting a long time (potentially months)

Here in Canada you simply can't buy jacobus or exorcists. Seraphim and repentia squads are totally off the menu as well.

Second flaw, now that you resolve weapons with different names individually, you'll want 2x flamers in each squad rather than heavy/special.

If you run heavy/normal flamers, you'll have to fire one, remove models, then fire the other, netting far less wounds than if you took 2 normal flamers and fired 'em both at the same time.

Not much of an issue in most armies, but when 1 model is $14 AUD, every little bit helps, right?

Also, having bought a rather similar list in 1 go recently, be prepared to shell out well over $1000 AUD for that list.

For the Retributors, you could consider Heavy Bolters instead. You didn't mount them so I assume you meant to keep them back? I find H Bolters useful as they are the only other weapon longer than 24 inches, except the Exorcist.

For the Seraphims, you might want 2 models to have hand flamers. You can paint one up for Inferno Pistol as well.

As for the BSS, if you do want to run other configurations besides F/HF, you can swap out the 4 HFlamers for 4 meltaguns from one of your Dominion squads for variety. So I think in terms of total numbers, you should be fine (ie 8 meltaguns, 4 flamers, 4 Hflamers)

Switching the heavy flamers to normal flamers would give the 20 points for that pair of hand flamers on the seraphim, though they suffer the same issue as celestine fires her heavy flamer out of order now too, but the infro pistols aren't even close to being worth 30 points.

Good point about the heavy bolters, but from the points, I'd say be bought an immolator points-wise but forgot to write it down.

Rending Hflvmers sound interesting; I might try it sometime. But if you are gonna be so close to flame them, there is higher chance that you might lose your Simulacrum/flag girl. But that models is good to have around in case you wat to vary your list.
