I recently came up with this small list, mainly because I wish to try running Lion's Blade but the friend I play with doesn't have enough models to play a game bigger than 750 points. I don't need it to be perfectly optimized, but at least it should be playable. What do you think? Should I take a Chaplain instead of the Company Master maybe?

Thank you for your feedback!

I don't think foot-slogging 5 man tac squads are super awesome.

I would probobly just bring a CAD at that point level, take rhinos or drop pods for the tacticals and try to work in some ravenwing.

Yeah, it would probably be more effective but we always play on pretty small table so I'm not sure transports would make a great difference. Anyway a couple Rhinos, Razorbacks or Pods are already on my buying list, I'm going to buy them as soon as I can drop a bit of cash!

How small is your table? Transports make Tactical Squads twice as effective for only a fraction of the points.
