I'm getting ready to head to a bunch of tournaments over the next few month and I am waffling over which of my three lists to take. Its been a year since I played in any GTs or non local tournaments, so I'm not sure as to how viable these lists would be.
Spoiler:
List 1 - Bikes and Flyers
Space Marine CaD (White Scars CT)
HQ Librarian - ML2, Force Stave, Bike, The Hunters Eye - 130 Points
Chapter Master - Artificer Armor, Bike, Storm Shield, Glaive of Vengance - 215 Points
I've used all 3 lists in local small tournaments to varied levels of success. List 1 relies alot on good placement for the automatic turn 2 reinforcements. List 2 has alot of turn 1 punch, but has trouble with armored lists and castling. List 3 is alot of fun, but I am constantly at the whims of the dice gods.
I have other marine and daemon models that can be added if needed, as well as an Imperial Knight (Which I've never played below 2500 points, so I am not used to fitting them into tournament level lists.
Any ideas, comments, or thoughts on improvements are welcome!

Thanks for the input! That's the one I have the most experience playing. My big worry about them is that I have a low model count army and starts with half of it off the board. It makes me very wary of armies like Tau that can drown me in wounds.

We do all have the same problem with tau... They are broken with double stormsuck... Like you said, you dont have much on the board but I fell like you won't have much more if you play the tetrad.. By playing white scars and ravenwing your army still has a few squads and mobility However, you must find a way to add a librarius conclave on your list. Why ? Cauz it is so OP

I do like the Infernal Tetrad with the quad daemon princes, I've played it a few times and they certainly do well, whilst the decurion does give you reliability with the warp storm but I've also seen it do well with the princes + an allied detachment of CSM marines (Cultists, Belakor and Helldrake)
Second to that, I like the while scars list for it's turn 1 alpha damage and as you say you have a lot of experience with it...

I think the Tetrad works best with a CAD of Tzeentch daemons to get more warp charges to buff the DP's.. Also with paradox on a herald or LoC you can guarantee reinforcements every turn.. I have had the most success with the Infernal Tetrad running it that way.
