Total Points = 1995

I wanted to put in two implusors with the 4++ for the blade guard, but could not justify the points (I feel like the rhino ram / blocking could be useful). The extra points would probably end up with powerfist upgrades on the intercessors.

One unit of eradicators goes into reserve with the strat, eliminators and intercessors sit on home objectives or to screen for deep strikes, and everything else rushes forward / plays objectives.

Any advice, thoughts, or changes?

Thanks

Well, you are in for a bit of luck, my friend.

As per the recent points update, Outrider squads are down 5 points per model, which means with 6 outriders you have overpaid by 30 points.

Lasfusils are also now a free upgrade. So while that doesnt affect your list as you wrote it, if you want the lasfusils you can get them without spending any extra points.

That would leave you at 1935, so you've got 65 points to spend. Perhaps you drop one of your powerfists from an assault intercessor squad, put your eradicators into 2 Combat squads of 3, and you can squeeze in another 3 lasfusil eliminators for 75 points.

Best of luck to you.

That point drop really helped. Thanks for the feedback. I ended up splitting the blade guard into 3 units of 3, combining the eradicators so they can be used in a combat squad, and put in another set of eliminators. I think PF on intercessors could be dropped for a squad of company veterans. I think the PF help with my lack of AT though.

Any other thoughts?

I've been helping my friend with his White Scars list recently and this looks quite similar.

I'd recommend a 3/1 split of Assault vs standard Intercessors rather than 2/2, but other than that it looks solid.

One other thing we've found that works well. Rather than 6 Eradicators (that should be 270pts BTW) take 3 for your last heavy slot, but run 3 firstborn bikers in your last Fast Attack slot. They are also T5, 3 wounds, 3+ save, but move 14" instead. You can take two meltaguns and a combi-melta on the sergeant for only 120pts, plus they get the twin boltguns from their bikes. That gives you the same anti-armour firepower, some anti-infantry firepower, as well as faster movement and 20 extra points to play with (25 if you swap the intercessors as well). You could then add a 4th bike to soak some fire if you can trim 5 points elsewhere; or give the Seargent a power first and put some hand flamers on those Assault Intercessors
