Wondering what you all think of this list. Havent been able to play 9th yet, so this is from what Ive read/ watched online.
Idea here is to strategic reserve the CC, Cannoness with the Brazier, and the melta BSS squad. Scions come down with vox, helping facilitate the CC giving the Vet's Take Aim order.
Tallarn Ambush the TC, 2x Vets
Argent shroud sisters advance around, kite and do what they can.
Ret's start in cover with Battle Sanctum. I go back and forth on putting them in a Rhino but I feel that just puts a larger target sign on their back. The Battle Sanctum gives more miracle dice, cover, and leadership bonus.
Master Mechanic Tank ace I gave to the TC to try to mitigate the anti-tank he'll eat turn 2/3 return fire, but i go back and forth on giving the Basilisk Full payload.

Secondaries might be engage on all fronts, line breaker, bring it down

We'll aware its not meta breaking, aware Valorus heart. Bloody Rose are better.

Your vox casters don't seem ... I dunno, just.. (possibly cause I don't see what you intend with them, I mean, you may use them quite well, but I know I probably wouldn't). Either you pin one of those three fairly short ranged high powered gaurd units down to source the transmission in the rear, or you are stuck with one officer who can give orders only to the 2 veterans. The scions can pass the orders if you wanted to use them that way, but its probably just as smart to use them in battle and have the commander near one or the other veteran squads (and thus able to use its vox to calll the other one).
This is a tiny point, but its also gaurd -- and you are giving up a hunterkiller missle on your basilisk to have that incompatible scion unit carry an extra vox. I guess maybe, if the troop choice was regular gaurd, you could also movemovemove them around while hanging out with one of the vets and passing ordedrs to the other vet? I dunno.

The vox caster situation in my head is this. The veterans are deep striking within rapid fire plasma range and ideally the CC along with them. Sometimes I may not want to drop both squads alongside each other, or they may get shot up on the way in, therefore I like having vox to give me that 18’m breathing room so to speak. The scions are there for 1) troop requirement for patrol 2) to facilitate that take aim order via vox if needed and 3) objective grabbing, tactical deep strike if the vox thing isn’t needed. I could run a infantry squad but I prefer the versatility of scions. The idea here is a denial of a first turn alpha strike hit and guarantee my strike turn 2 can function regardless of my opponent.

Ok. That's all fair, I just sort of figured you couldn't use orders on the scions. If you plan to use that third vox as a backup, then you have a plan for it -- adn that's fine!
