Well, it looks like with the new beta rules nerf to deepstrikingand charging, i'll need to rethink how to use the bloodletters. Charging them across the table seems like suicide, so how viable is summoning them in?

Surely the only difference is that now you'll have to DS them on T2 instead? It gives you a bit of time to clear away the screening units I suppose...

Yea, DS on turn 2 is a completely viable option. I play the same army and if my opponent has me screened off, it can take a turn or 2 before I have a drop zone cleared behind enemy lines.

don't expect your scorpion to do much work unfortunately, I have one and it's 100% not worth the points. If you are jsut playing for fun then disregard this message, it's definitely a fun model until it blows up and kills your whole army haha.

I figured he would be a giant fire magnet haha. That's why I'm hoping the 3 squads of berzerkers charging forward would hopefully help to divide their attention and give it a chance to make it to combat. The deep strike ruling might actually be in my favor since my opponent can no longer deep strike melta turn 1 to pop my vehicles

That's true, but if they have any shooting at all it'll just fall over turn one, with the new FAQ it's going to be very hard for stuff like this to live for very long, I was hoping the FAQ would make vehicles good again but sadly it just made them worse.
