Sup guys, I'm almost ready to give up on BA.... But here's one more shot.

HQ:

Reclusiarch

Elites:

Troops:

------------------------------------

Fragnoughts come down T1, Vets go tank hunting (for LRs or Manticores, stuff like that), Fire Raptors eat people.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Only real thought about this list: don't waste the 30 points on a Reclusiarch. Just take a Librarian.

On a personal note, I would find a way to fit in the Las/Plas upgrade on the Razors. Our fast razors are the only ones that can move twelve and shoot both guns. Might as well take advantage of it. Also, if you're running HB RBs, I wouldnt spend points on meltas. I would stay back and shoot and take objectives. Not suicide my scoring units trying to hunt tanks with a single melta gun shot. This is all personal stuff. If it works for you, feel free.

This is pretty different from my usual BA fare. I've heard good things about Fire Raptors in general but I've never even seen one of the bloody things in person. Let alone know how they work on the tabletop. Best of luck to you with them.

Thanks for the reply!

I need the Reclusiarch for access to a second Fire Raptor, due to the Relic rule.

If I drop all the meltas and 1 Razor squad, I can get Las/Plas on the remaining 2 and another DP ASM squad - what do you think?

Thanks,

Lucarikx

Yeah I would definitely go that route. Like I said, Las Plas is money. You could just up your current ASM do squad to 10 men with 2x flamers with those points, but addidng another one would be good use of points too.

What if instead of ditching your scoring units, you ditch one vanguard vet unit for the points you need. Like Bocatt, I don't have much experience with Fire Raptors either.
