Here's my next list against the chaos scum which I'm quite happy with actually after few new purchases. My main questions are should I run the attack bike separately or attached to the main bike group? I want to try the Golden Host, bikers and grav cannon's which I have no experience. Sternguard is quite big point sink, but atleast I can choose whether it arrives on T1 or later and it should do the trick bringing down a major threat on the field. Anyways, what do you think? I swapped a single librarian to Sanguinary priest and added tacticals some melta bombs. I think Valour's edge on the charge is worth the points on challenges vs. power fist or lightning claw, striking four ap2 blows at WS6, I5, S5.

The Golden Host (595 points)

Commander Dante (warlord)
5man sanguinary guard + 2x inferno pistol

5man sanguinary guard + chapter banner

Baal Strike force (1255 points)

Sanguinary priest + Valour's edge + bolt pistol + bike
4man bike squad + 2x grav gun + combi-grav

Attack bike + multi-melta

5man tactical squad + heavy flamer + melta bombs >> rhino

5man tactical squad + heavy flamer + melta bombs >> rhino

5man devastator squad + 2x grav cannon + armorium cherub >> rhino

Furioso dreadnought + frag cannon >> drop pod

5man sternguard + 5x combi-melta >> drop pod

Comments welcome!

I like it except I might go with a priest instead of a lone libby.

Actually like the idea of sanguinary priest. I've been struggling which HQ choice to build with my last bike sprue. Let's me try the green stuff to make the cloak.

But if the points are the same with rest of the army. How should I kit the sanguinary priest then? I've got melee arms chainsword/lightning claw/power sword for sanguinary priest already made, so could easily just magnetize the bike priest's other arm.

Has anyone used grav pistols in the past? It could support the other bikers when shooting with grav, it's expensive but why not? If I'd just use the lightning claw and proxy the model to have grav pistol in the holster? Should be still wysiwyg in tourney's right?

Any suggestions? How to re-arrange the points if I swap the HQ for the priest..

I'm just of the opinion that I go with 3+ libbies or zero.

None of my priests have cloaks, I just use the forgeworld Horus Heresy Apothecaries and honestly I think they make better medics than the actual model
Although cloaks do look dapper as feth... If only I was half decent with greenstuff.

Updated the list above and working on the priest biker at this moment..

Couple questions still occur:

1. Still, should I run the attack bike separately or attached to other bikers.

2. I've got a pistol holster on the priest so would you guys prefer a grav pistol and lightning claw rather than the valour's edge and melta bombs with the tacticals. This seems to be the last tweak on the list.
