So khan opens up scout, and also outflank, for bikes and dedicated transports. I have enjoyed the awesomesauce of outflanking flamer squads, and I really want to know what else goes good with outflank!

An idea is a tactical squad in a heavy flamer razorback with combi and regular flamers!

The correct statement of individual rights is that everyone has the right to an opinion, but crucially, that opinion can be roundly ignored and even made fun of, particularly if it is demonstrably nonsense!” Professor Brian Cox

Outflanking Chaos Spawn with the Chaos Lord on Steed. Excellent face wrecking unit, and a big big distraction for an enemy. PLus you can launch the uber Lord into one unit while the Spawn go to town on another. Like firing a torpedo.

Hold out bait to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and then crush him.

So long as they all survive edit:a round of shooting and not get counter assaulted by something assaulty.

My current favorite is big kroot blobs with krootoxs for surprise rear armor shots on occasion.

I agree about Kroot. My Krootox have killed more vehicles than anything else in my army.

Both, Baal Predators with flamers and Warwalkers with S6 weapons can be nasty surprise units. They force the enemy to think twice about deployment.

Vindicators don't have chapter tactics and cannot be taken as a dedicated transport, so how would you do this? Is there a character that would allow this?

If you like burning and melting things with Scouting units take some Sisters as Allies and use Dominon Squads.

Whoops, my bad. I forgot about chapter tactics.
