Thanks!

I don't think you can take 2x Malefic Talons AND a Warp Bolter on the Daemon Princes, so there are your points...

You can, this came up in my last thread too.

Thanks for the response though.

I like it, unfortunately you built this list very lean in terms of wiggle room. Only thing i see that would make ANY sense to swap out is that combi flamer which sucks because I think it works well there. Is a steed more expensive than a bike by chance?

Only question is who goes in the rhinos?

Bike is more expensive unfortunately.

I was planning on having the 5-man squads zoom up in the Rhinos--but that may not happen in all games. The Rhinos main purpose, at least as I am brainstorming the list, is to protect the DPs with the new shooting rules while still having a small punch themselves.

Drop the rhinos, take ML on the Sonic Dreads and take a third HB or DP.

List looks awesome!

I am working on a list with the suggestions, thanks!

My one concern--is having the HBs with ML really better than PF in this list? Fists were there for a bit more punch against armor.

Something like this? I could drop the Fist on one Helbrute for a ML and give the 5-mans Power Swords or something:

I could also change the Lord to an armor hunter with a Combi Melta and PF--but the lack of 3++ scares me on that...
