The idea is that the Buffmander and Ethereal join the Sniper Drones and the first 2 casualties are the Marksmen. The sniper squad gets major bonuses for hunting MC's in cover. and once the marks men die becomes much more mobile
The moving around with them are the 4 Strike squads.
All the ML's are supporting all the 2 Stormsurges shooting.
The Remora drones increase the total Seeker missile count to 16. + add more ML that shoot at full BS for aerial targets helping to take down FMCs by the SS's.

Thoughts?

Is death from the skies in play in your tournament and is the Remora counted as a fighter or not.

if you are taking the pulse blast cannon, dont use the stormsurges anchors.
Withe the shorter range you are better off making use of the 12" movement that the surges offer.
In my opinion the surges would be better anchoring down and taking the pulse driver cannon instead. Just personal preference, both guns are good in their own right.

The idea is that they are going to move up the field and cause carnage with all their weapons. all the marker lights ensuring those D missiles and D guns are always hitting.
