Any advice or tips would be nice, as it's my first actual game of 40k after a lot of time watching and learning the hobby. I have all of the models except for the land speeder, and I'm working on finishing painting them to tabletop standard so that I'm not the dreaded legion of grey. I'll probably end up playing with some strangers at the local GW, so I tried to make it an all comers type of list. Cheers

Help us help you.

What other models you got? I understood that you are beginning your gaming so I assume that at this point you don't have a ton of models to choose from. You haven't yet purchased the land speeder, if you get minor suggestions of the direction where to go with your angels can we suggest something you still don't own?

These would help us to give more specific feedback, me thinks.

Agree with the above, but one thing I can say for certain is Vindicare Assassins are pretty bad. They're designed to kill HQs, but can barely put out 1 wound a turn, at that. The HQ will beef any wounds thown at him by it, and even if he fails, you will still have another 2-3 wounds to get through.
