The idea behind this list is to take some of the best fast assault units in each book and throw them together, see what happens.

Necron CAD
Catacomb Command Barge (Nightmare Shroud, Phase Shifter, Warscythe, Phylactery)

Tesla Immortals x5
Tesla Immortals x5

Wraiths x5 (Whip Coils)
Wraiths x5 (Whip Coils)
Wraiths x5 (Whip Coils)

CSM CAD
Be'lakor
Sorcerer (ML3, Bike, Spell Familar, Bolt Pistol, Force Axe, Sigil of Corruption, Melta Bombs)

Cultists x10
Cultists x10

Spawn x5 (MoN)

1850/1850

Wraiths are just good on their own as tarpits and MSU eaters, but just Rending has issues killing harder targets with any type of speed. The Force weapon on the Sorc and Fleshbane on Be'lakor can deal with those pretty easily. It'll have enough Psychic dice to get off Invis on Be'lakor or the Spawn unit each turn and Force on the Sorc, and the Sorc rolls on Bio for Iron Arm/Endurance/Warp Speed. Meanwhile, the Troops just camp objectives.

C&C appreciated.

Pretty solid list, man. At the 1850 level though, what are your thoughts on going against fliers?

Try to ignore them, for the most part. The Wraiths and Spawn are tough enough to tank a lot of shooting, and Be'lakor will try to be Invisible as much as possible. The speed they have should help them run past the firing arc of any Zooming Flyers, and if all goes as planned, most of them should be locked in combat pretty quickly.

Looks cool. Maybe swap the Force Axe for a Force Staff. Will be much better if you get Iron Arm.

Hm, I suppose that's pretty good. There's a 50% chance you get Iron Arm, and even without it you still hit at S6 (ID with Force), which is nice. I picked the Axe because AP2 is the thing to have, but I guess the meta is more towards 3+ at the moment, so it's less of a necessity.

Whats the go with getting some psychic dice? Is a deamon flying deamon prince specced up with some cultists the best way to go or is there another way of going about it? I have necrons, however CSM look cool and wouldnt mind getting some in the future. Thanks in advance guys.
