Theme: Use all my AdMech collection in 1 list. DONE! (Sorry Cawl)

Plan: Use clandestine Infiltration on Dragoons to place immediate pressure on opponent. Possibly using it with some support units depending on opponent and deployment options. The rest of the army holds and shoots from range abusing stratagems to improve shooting and put a serious hurt on the opponent's army. I has a LOT of firepower here.

Almost nothing to screen chargers in this list thought.

I would split the kastelans into 2 units of 2 so as to lessen the odds of getting screwed in charges. I know you wanna abuse the strats but you get no shooting if they charge you...

I run my dragoons in 2 units of 3, which gives them a ton of charge choices.

I like the list, but here are a few things I have found playing Ad Mech. Their infantry units die super fast and are better served as screens for deep striking units. Spending extra points on the special weapons rarely works out for me. You do have other units that will take most of the firepower (dragoon squad), but they often die to just small arms fire which likely won't target the more important units in your army. Also taking 3 dominus seems excessive, maybe take an enginseer for the spearhead to free up points for a little more deep strike screening. Last but not least the I personally haven't found must success with the Icarus array on the dunecrawlers, I'd say consider swapping it out with another neutron laser cause they are amazing tank hunters!

Vanguard + Destroyers are the screen versus chargers.

Dragoons are amazing they do serious work for me in every game only failing against opponents that climb up to upper levels of ruins where the dragoons cannot follow.

I agree 3 dominus is too much but i dont own the other models so yeah im making use of what i own.

I agree the Neutron laser does a LOT more for me than the icarus in every game so far but I have faith...one of these days the Icarus will blow my mind. Plus I like having a 'highlander' themed army where there can be only one of each unit + gear. no repeats!
