Wonder if I could have your take on this list. It's going to be vs Cult Mech. I know it's going to be Destroyer Grav spam - 30" range. At one point he showed me 18 destroyers. I think he's bringing maybe 2 to 4 castalan robots, as well as tech priests and, of course, the dominus.

My only remark is regarding the Fire Dragons walking around. I would switch them for some more spiders . Other than that this is a competitive list that will give anyone a run for its money.

Got milk?

All I can say about painting is that VMC tastes much better than VMA... especially black...

Warp spiders will ruin his day, I play admech war convocation and I can only kill those things in cc. Your opponents list is going to be slow and ponderous, if you assault move out of vision he's going to have trouble getting los to shoot. You should be fine I think.

Thanks guys, only snag with this one, is the fact I don't have any more spiders to use. the Dragons are foot slogging purely for points.

Is it worth losing the hemlock and investing in either the prisms/nightspinners or try and wedge in the wraithguard?

If he is running the war convocation just spend your time targeting the skitarii with S6 or higher weapons. Insta kills all around so no FNP for them. Bonus points if those attacks ignore cover. Beware of Grav from the Cult servitors and be careful of his Knight. If your Wraithknight was sword and board you could have an easier time of it.

Also take advantage of your speed and range.

Hemlock has been a terrifying thing in my short experience with it. I would keep it especially since you have more fliers to protect it.

Proxy the fire dragons for spiders and problem solved
