Storm surge

Setup storm surge riptides for deployment .... then decide if I need my drones or path finders on the table

I put shadow sun with the pathfinders to tank wounds and provide steath shrouded.... Want to make sure I have destroyer missiles to kill their best unit\monster\LOW

2nd turn I Hailfire, ripple fire my Riptides... double shoot my Stormsurge and drop in Retaliation cadre to push a side.... or land close to path finders to rip anything trying to get to close....


I have a few months till the tourney so I am play testing...

I love the pirahna wing for using them to make drones and missiles then zipping on late game objectives... but could not figure out the synergy for them here. I also used 2 storm surges initially and was not impressed.

Anyone? After reading this again only the drones and Retaliation Cadre benefit from the Dawnblade special rules......
