I don't know if the ageis is necessary as you can use your bolster ruins ability on two different ruins although I can see you wanting to re roll reserve rolls.

Also what is the plan for librarian? What powers is he trying to get and what purpose will be be used for? He looks a bit vunerable with just a tactical squad at his back presumably dropping in close with the melta team.

Hmm I was thinking telepathy. Maybe for invisibliloty. Also obviously pychis scream.

I really wanted the reserves turn 2 was my though.

I could drop 1 flyer and maybe move points for something else but wanted the odd number of pods.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I could drop the regular devs too and maybe go for another unit. Maybe sternguard?

Why put the TFC in drop pods. This seems very strange.

They are there to make sure he has 3 pods entering turn 1. They will be empty when deployed. It's a way of getting pods in your list without using a fa slot. Its a very popular tactic.....

Correct. Thanks

I would pick up a Command Squad for 5 special weapons since you have the Libby. If you drop the regular dev squad and a TFC pod you should be able to add them in.

I think you would be better off with a Fire Raptor and a single escorting Stormtalon (as opposed to three Stormtalons) so they arrive together on one roll, but YMMV.

Looks pretty well rounded though.

Gotcha. Never seen anyone doing this before. Cool.

I like te devs over the command squad since they have tank hunter for sentinels.
