I'm not sure if discussing power level is alright, I don't see any lists here with them, but I'd like some feedback anyway for the army I'm going to use in the upcoming GW campaign.
Patrol detachment
HQ
Ethereal
Cadre fireblade
Troops
3 x 12 man strike teams with shas'ui
Elites
6 crisis suits, 1 unit, 3 with 2 fusion blasters and multi tracker
3 with 2 plasma and drone controller
12 gun drones as add-ons to the suits
The idea is to have the swarm of fire warriors move around as a group with buffs to shooting from the HQs, while the crisis suits eliminate, hopefully, the most dangerous threats. I found in a few test games with a different list that the crisis suits were vulnerable once they had dropped down and rolled poorly on their shooting, and got slaughtered by the very dangerous units they had been sent to kill. The drones should provide plenty of ablative wounds as well as being fairly dangerous in their own right as they give 48 bs 2+ s5 shots. Given my local GW's love of 4x4 tables with lots of terrain, I rarely engaged more than 20" away so the volley fire should be very useful, and only having 18" range on the fusion blasters and pulse carbines isn't really a problem.
Any and all help would be appreciated, bearing in mind that I do not own ghostkeels, riptides, kroot, vespid, or any named HQ. This list is also assuming I pick up a start collecting box, so I may have to ditch the ethereal.
