Curious if this would be somewhat competitive at 2500pts...please share your thoughts

Deathwing
HQ
Belial - 190pts
Chaplain - Bike, Mace of Redemption, & PFG - 165pts

Command Squads
Deathwing Command Squad - Champ, Apoth, & 3 TH/SS - 250pts
Ravenwing Command Squad - Apoth & RGL - 230pts

Troops
Deathwing Squad - x10 & x2 AC - 480pts
Deathwing Squad - x10 & x2 HF - 460pts

White Scars
HQ
Khan - Moondrakken - 150pts
Command Squad - Bikes, 4x SS, 4x GG, & Apoth - 250pts

Troops
Bike Squad - x5 & 2 MG - 125pts
Bike Squad - x5 & 2 MG - 125pts

The plan
Belial comes down with Deathwing Command Squad and the Deathwing Squads will come down on Turn 2 from the Ravenwing Command Squad Homers and Belial's Homer. The Chaplain & Khan go with the Ravenwing Command Squad for a fast and effective CC unit. The Command Squad goes hunting MC or TEQ while the Bikes go hunt down the tanks. Got tactics?

Couple of pointers:

1) all the DW elements must DS in the same turn (you pick 1 or 2), you can't split them in 2 batches

2) if you can, try to add some homers on the White Scars bike sergeants

3) lose the apothecary upgrade on the DW command squad, it's very expensive and you lose the PF. For a few more points you can get the FNP banner

4) if you're planning on a fun game this seems okay; if you're trying to be somewhat competitive, you need to make some changes (very few scoring bodies at that point scale)

I plan on both of the squads coming down on Turn 2 with the homer's on the Black Knights and Belial...
I don't have any wiggle room for the banner or I would and I was aiming for the low troop count with more punch from the other units. I would think 10 termies would be somewhat hard to chew through but, I guess we will see

I dont understand y you would take white scar if you can already get bikes as troops.

Take azreal to unlock both.

Otherwise i would just take gravgun bikes from c:sm

A couple of reasons

1. Azreal can't DS with Termies so this renders him useless in my load out here

2. I had no real tank hunting solution so I put MGs on the cheaper C:SM bikers
