I've had a work-in-progress Solar Auxilia force sitting around for a while now, put on hold whilst 8th did it's... thing in the event it completely managed to kill off the Horus Heresy. Putting that discussion aside for now, I've decided to continue add to it. With the cost of things however, I really wanted to get things squared away on some of the less auto-includes (Infernus, infantry, etc). So with that in mind, here's what I've been looking at for a short while now.

As 'meh' as lascannons may be on them, the Malcador with a battlecannon sadly doesn't come with the option for a demolisher cannon in the kit and they're notoriously difficult to track down, short using one from the Dracosans. Another consideration was dropping the two non-Infernus Malcadors and going with three Leman Russ Battle Tanks or Vanquishers.

I've considered swapping out the Lightning for an Aegis Defence Line (with Quad Gun) and two Quad Mortars also.

I'll probably throw in a Shadowsword to take it up to 3000pts whenever.

Seems really solid, you've got a ton of pew pew, solid units in transports and a godo core of infantry, I relaly like it.
