Hey peeps, just starting a new Custodes army. Have a telemon 6 bikes and 10 guard so far. Am going to buy the other bits and pieces in next few weeks but wanted to run it past some more experienced Custodes players than myself before I purchase more forgeworld stuff.

I'm going to be using it mainly competitively and will tone down for games with friends. This is the list I'm thinking of so far, any thoughts would be appreciated.

Yep it's a standard Custode list.

A few more dreadnought than I’m used to seeing but yeah basically the same list these do well for casual play tournament not so much but still finish about middle.
