The idea is to simply Dominate with board control and spam out orders for massed FRFSRF. Basilisk do antitank w MoO for help.. Hellhounds harass and get up close. If i get into melee I get catachan strength and priest to bolter attacks. Plenty of command points for lots of stratagems.
Thoughts. I know they are guardsmen, but that is a lot of bodies. And a LOT of shots.

Is there any particular reason you are not taking Straken?

Harker is 20 pts. more than the Master of Ordanance but his buff is more reliable for the Basilisks as it is not dependent on range to the target.

Like the idea!

It looks like it needs Iron Hand and another priest though.

Perhaps dropping some platoon commanders.

I wouldn’t do the master of ordinance, I would use Harker instead

I've fought in this endless hateful war for eight months now, night and day. In that time I've aged a decade. My hair has turned grey, nearly all my squad have died, and I doubt I'll ever smile again. I've fought next to heroes and strangled men in their sleep. But I'm still alive and by the Emperor I plan to stay that way. - Acting-Captain Haines,47th Armageddon Steel Legion

Points mainly. And I don't have the models. But I can get them.

Might be worth getting both, any Idea what you would drop?

Bubble wrap from charges. But only other option would be to take a pysker and use nightshroud, but its only going off on 1 model, so the enemy will just shoot the others. Just going to take the fire really.
