Thoughts and opinions?

Jetbikes only have 2 scatters lasers each to avoid calls of full cheese monger mode (which I'm okay with). I'd ideally like a banshee mask for the Autarch and the Spirit Stones for the Farseer, but only minor things. 6 Bright Lances hopefully enough for AV14. Spiders and Hawks just seem fun to use at BS5, they'll clear up infantry, tanks and throwing enough mud at heavy infantry.

Thanks.

I've heard mixed reviews about the warp spiders... they seem to me on paper incredibly nerfed but apparently in actual games have become better.. rather odd

Anyway in principle this looks like a fairly fun list.. your aspects are both highly mobile and both in huge mobs.. which is good for the "make sure" principle

Also noone will bitch about power gaming when you don't take wraithguard or wraithknight. Personally I would scatbike 2 whole slightly smaller squads.. to go with the "make sure" principle

Looks like you actually have 12 Brightlances. Not the typical list, but I do like the Warp Spiders enmasse.

Thanks for the replies. A slightly different list then. A few tweaks.

Just switching around some points, to fit in upgrades for the HQ's. Consolidated and upgraded the Jetbikes. (is 12 scatter laser troops too much?). Rest is the same. lots of S6 to deal with most things. Guides/prescience on the farseer for aircraft. Some lances for tanks.

Always loved Warp Spiders. Won't stop now. Definitely a change to get used to though. Hopefully people don't find my list 'cheesy' now then. Thanks.

Where did I learn to count.... Thanks mate. 12 BLs does make me feel more comfortable. As said above I do love my Warp Spiders, so always want to include lots of them. Thanks.
