I'm not looking to take down screamer stars or flying circuses cause my wargaming club doesn't tolerate that gak because its not in the spirit of fun. Is it a balanced list?
If anyone is confused by the terminator squad it is the 1st priority for infiltrate and the idea is that they have so much overwatch power that the enemy will almost rather eat ahrimans 3 witchfires than charge that gak, lol

Thanks!

Nothing? I thought people would be excited to see a TSons list for a change

I think you could spend your Helbrute's points on something a little more useful. Redundancy is key and that one Dreadnought will get knifed like hot butter if anyone bothers to fire at it. You could throw in another troop squad for his points (maybe not sons but horrors or chaos marines).

Thousand sons are nice but they die to bolters and lasguns just as fast as any marine. Having more troops for stability if people focus your sons down is good.

Also consider putting putting melta bombs on your Sons. I always do that when I have the room for it For 5 points a pop they can make the difference between you becoming a stain on the boot of an enemy Dreadnought or getting a nice unexpected kill point when you roll that destroyed result.

I would think about getting some cultists for scoring. If you really want the Helbrute, run the dataslate that has the cultists in it.

4 scoring units with a portalglyph seems solid enough, but I would take combi-plasma or meltas with the terminators.

Also, a Thousand Sons army seems like the perfect place to take a Tzeentch Black Mace Demon Prince as well.

Four scoring units, each able to withstand different types of firepower. Cultists and Helbrute cover home objectives with Defiler. Single drake will just die straight away anyhow.

I think I'm over by 25 points so can just remove the combi-plasma and/or some flamers on the cultists. Or change the helbrute loadout.
Edited out a few mistakes ;p

I don't believe the Helcult takes up a FoC slot, so the cultists do not count as scoring units.

They are troops. Why would they not.

That is (or at least was for a while, I may be out of date) a hotly contested subject. I would play it as they can score personally. Hopefully 7th will clear this up. Heh, yeahhhhhh. . .

Gotcha. Or I could throw the whole thing out the window and take 9 Ahrimans?
