Total 1850

Spawnstar thing is hard to kill and can't be tarpitted, and demonheart and balestar are why I chose Crimson Slaughter. T6, 2+4++, IWND with 15 t6 wounds around him.

Small number of troops but no slouch to kill either. Havocs go in the bastion with the psyker, oblits go on top, fiend sticks beside or behind to block LoS, I can buff whichever needs the re rolls that round.

AA is solid, light armor is covered, hoards get mopped, the only thing I can think of is dropping an ectocannon and a spawn to swap out 2 more lascannons on the Havocs. 2 oblits, a pfist and 2 melta bombs is thin but AV14 spam is rare nowadays.

Swap spawn for Nurgle bikes with 2x meltas? The models are pricey and I'd want 4 of em.

Plan to meet a new meta this summer, I want to make a good first EAT IT!! What would you change? Anyone game near south Austin Tx? What's it like?

The list looks really strong IMHO. The only thing is that I'd lose the Ectoplasma Cannon on the Forgefiend, mixing ranged weapons on a single model rarely works. You could use those 25 pts. to upgrade your Sorcerer to ML 3.

Drukhari - 4.7k
Space Marines - 3.1k
Chaos Space Marines - 2.9k
Harlequins - 0.9k

The Eye of Terror

balestar grant re-rolls on psychic tests, so familiar is pointless, and your sorcerer is overpriced

Armies
CSM Zenmarine Warband from assorted tratiors and heritics

DARK ANGELS woo woot
the way to win is not to make a grand masterplan, its by making sure your opponents grand masterplan fails

Good call on the familiar.

I'm really just subbing prescience, is ML3 better than the ecto? I was figuring it would be helpful for termites that DS near my precious bastion. For a final 25 pts it might force a squad to run instead of shoot on the turn they arrive, giving me a round of shooting first. That's the thought process anyway.
