Hi DakkaDakka

Currently painting my Solar Auxilia, i've bough 2 Vindicators and a Xiphon for my next project : mounted WS army.

So now that White Scars have both Outriders and Jetbikes as mandatory & scoring troops,
What would be the most efficient way to fill all 6 troop choices with bikes ?
Jetbikes are tough but lack firepower and decent close combat abilities..
Outriders do the real damage, both at range and close, but too many option to choose from and can cost a LOT of points, however can prob take out terminator with their AP2 Glaives and rerolls.

I prefer an all mounted army for obvious fluff reasons.
The rest of the list will probably be Vindicators/Xiphon Interceptors as well as a Preator + melee bodyguards, all on jetbikes.

Thanks

well: I'd go 3 and 3. jet bikes give you your 2+ armor and fun heavy weapons, all on a fast platform. outriders give you outflank and lots of special weapons, though not as durrable. really, it's up to what you want your army to look like.
