Greetings,

I made a list with Farsight bomb, but after reading advices form forum members I decided to discard the bomb idea. However I don't want to discard Farsight Enclave so I made this list, one that I really like. I didn't use skyray no matter how good it is, since I like Broadsides and I strongly believe that they have usage in 7th edition. Only thing that I don't know is it legal, since I want to use XV84 battlesuit as commander and tetra in Farsight enclave list.

I am looking forward to read your opinion and suggestions.
Thank You in advance and best wishes.

Commander with XV84 battlesuit (Networked markerlight, Target lock), Drone controller, 2x Plasma rifle, Stimulant injector, 2x Marker Drone
I like Networked markerlight because with two additional Marker Drones and Target lock I hope to give marklight to two different targets. He will join crisis team A.

XV104 Riptide ECPA, EWO, HBC, VT, TLSMS
I didn’t put stimulant injector because I didn’t have points for that. To be honest I am not sure is Stims good add-on. Feel no pain is good thing but I didn't have any idea what to cut from the list.

XV8 Crisis Team A
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Plasma rifles. In team there are six gun drones.
XV8 Crisis Team B
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Fusion blaster. In team there are two Shield Drones.
XV8 Crisis Team C
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Missile pod.
XV8 Crisis Team D
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Missile pod.

3 x Tetra with Sensor spines
This my big concern since I don’t know can I use Tetra with FSE. I hope that I can since them with Crisis battlesuit make ideal combination. I am planning to deep strike Crisis battlesuit Teams A and B and Tetra will give me no scatter. Further, they will give me markerlight better than pathfinders.

My local meta is that more than 50% are space marines players. Preferred enemy makes reroll 1 so no more It gets hot so easy.

Much better than your last one!

Your skyfire HBC riptide should have fusion as its secondary system.

You need to find 30 points to fit EWO on the Bsides. Your riptides don't really need it, so that's 10 right there. Lose two gun drones and you're there. Drop pods are everywhere, and 6 missilesides with EWO will nuke those opponents or force them into poor deployment decisions.

You need some more marker lights, shifting all your drones from where they are now to one of the missile Crisis teams and then attaching your commander would be perfect. Plasma rifles aren't ideal for the commander, but I'm guessing you don't have a choice about that; I don't know Forge World at all.

Rule #1 is Look Cool.

He's using one of the Forge World Crisis Suit variants, which has a built in Networked Markerlight and Target lock.

Are all those rules for the variants under the Taros campaign also?

It's a good list and I love the fire support cadre. I would cut all the drones from the crisis suits as loosing any of them will cause you to take morale checks. Just my $.02

That would free up points for better upgrades for your broadsides and riptides.

Thank you all,
According to The Shrike comments (thank you very much for the help) I made several changes to the list and I think that I significantly improved it. What are your opinions on it now?
Commander with XV84 battlesuit (Networked markerlight, Target lock), Drone controller, 2x Missile pod, Stimulant injector, Talisman of Arthas Moloch, Stimulant injector
He will go solo with Drone Squadron (4x Marker Drone). That unit can give 5 marklight shoots to two independent targets (4+1)
XV104 Riptide ECPA, HBC, VT, TLFB
Made change to second weapon to Twin-linked fusion blaster,
XV8 Crisis Team A
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Plasma rifles. In team there are two Shield Drones.
Discarded sic gun and added two shield drones
XV8 Crisis Team B
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Fusion blaster. In team there are two Shield Drones.
I will deep strike A and B team behind enemy lines and I give them two Shield Drones since I want to make them more resistant to counter attack.
XV8 Crisis Team C
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Missile pod.
XV8 Crisis Team D
3 x Crisis battlesuit with 2x Missile pod.
Commandant and teams C and start on board, since missile pod have good range.
2 x Tetra with Sensor spines and Automated repair system
Drone Squadron (4x Marker Drone)
