Looking for everyone's fav combinations of powerful characters/abilities/psychic powers/formations.
Thinking about starting to build a Bikestar unit but not sure if I should go Ravenwing/TWC or Ravenwing/White Scars with libby conclave.

I like a 8+ unit of Grotesques with a Void Dreamer. Turn one charges, cover saves, and invulnerable saves all make the grots way more dangerous and harder to remove.

I believe the current best is the barkstar/murder horde. More or less, it's nearly 1500 points (some reserved for troops for a CAD) of IoM armies cobbled together. There's a thread on a variation of it here:

Agreed. Unlike most death stars, this one can win a game against any possible opponent or mission. Most can't fight flyer-spam or maelstrom type things.

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

I like the idea of the Starweaver jetstar; it's flexible, durable, and highly mobile, but I haven't gone and worked on how I'd load one out.

Interesting wolf list. Anyone have suggestions for a White Scars list with Ravenwing? How does it generally work? I know biker libbies in a conclave join the squad...

How does White Scars/Ravenwing work? Poorly, since you lose Combat Tactics.
