Hey Guys,

Looking for some feedback and pointers on a 500 pt Corsair List, I have mulled it over and changed few times and this is currently where I am at.

HQ - Prince - jet pack - shadow field - void sabre - mask of secrets - forgotten treasures prince

Elite - 5 x Corsair Felarch - jet Packs -2 x Venom Blade 5 x brace of pistols

Fast Attack - Hornet - 2 x Pulse Lasers

Troop - 3 x cloud dancer - 3 x Scatter Laser
Troop - 3 x cloud dancer - 3 x splinter Cannon

My thoughts are to deepstrike the corsair backfield close enough to start hopping about and causing havoc, scatter and pulse hornet priorities armour then objsec troops, splinter cloud dancers are for high T units, troops or flat out objsec.

Let me know if you think I am getting this totally wrong ... Which is likely.

Will be up against ravenwing, space marine and dark eldar.

Thank you

Hey Guys,

Appreciate perhaps people are not in position to feedback with book and rules being new.

Thought I would try one last ditch before I play next week.

Will feed back one way or other on my success/failure of anyone will be interested.

Regards

Im not a huge fan of the relics take on the prince. I like the one that gives rampage to the prince and rage to everyone else. Allows for some neat shannigans where you can charge a weakened unit.

Rage is good, I am going to opt for the FnP option to the troops role of the prince. Unless being shot at by s6+ (which isn't that hard, unless you play imperium - that's kind of at a premium) everyone will get that important roll to save themselves after armor has failed. I don't think it's a bad option, but ymmv.

Looks nasty at 500 points. I would warn you that as you get bigger voidstorm squads will start to hamstring you as they scale up becoming more and more expensive. My 2 cents.

The thing to note is that the fnp can get expensive fast for corsairs. Don't let voidstorms get it because they just suck up upgrades. Keep them cheap. I feel they work best with vehicles toting them around due to them being cheap for a min squad, and are cheaper than reavers who take heavy mesh with a felarch for the ld, but can definitely be used for other purposes. A versatile unit that you don't want to overbloat.
