All over the place

Hey everyone, so super stoked to get to dust off the ol' deldar, and though the FAQ kinda messed with my 6 Patrol original theorycraft, I think this 13 CP list does about the same thing and nets me some extra CPs in the process so it works. Any feedback is appreciated, intended strategy is below the list. Using Alliance of Agony strategem for the extra wl traits and shifted the transports below the units they are taxiing. All transports are from Kabal detachment

Strathammer-
So starting CP is 13+d3-2 which on average gives me the WL traits and extra relic for free.

Non-warlord Archon and the 2x Succubi in raiders with the Wyches. Possibly Spending 3x CP to use Screaming Jets x3 if the Opp is transport heavy.

Haemy with Wracks as backline counter assault unit in case of deep strikers.

WL Archon, Venoms, and Ravagers doing the mobile gunline thing

Reavers assaulting and popping targets of opportunity with the absurd movement. (will also experiment with 15x Hellions unit as w/ stunclaw upgrade makes it 1 point more expensive than reavers)


I feel like this is a solid TAC list, and haven't gotten any reps in with it yet. As a said above, all C&C welcome!

Why are you buying so many Aggies with Obsidian Rose? The general core goal of your army is keep away, yeah? The Cult and Coven are there to get their hands dirty while you float around looking superior and dakka-ing, yeah?

I will just generically advise you to consider Dissies as a great price saving that is arguably superior.

I'll toss out that Aggie savings could buy an electrocorrosive whip for the Haem, just an off the top of my head overall superior placement of the points in my opinion since his actual plan is to assault as opposed to a 'hope I don't get assaulted' point expenditure.
For my money you're also buyng too many Raider doo-dads, I like to keep them very cheap and just buy more stuff - but it's not inherently bad, just a preference thing.

List looks pretty fun!

Hope my thoughts help,

All over the place

Yeah you're definitely not wrong on the agoniser front, didnt really think of it that way.

The reason I didnt go with disintegrators on the ravagers is because in my head the Raiders were going to be up close with the enemy for post combat re-embarks, and would have a higher likelihood to be in sub optimal positions. So the dark lances on them would probably only get a shot or two before they're gone and I would probably still need the tank popping abilities on the field elsewhere. Definitely going to try throwing a few of the disintegrators after I get a couple reps in with this list though.

Thanks very much for the help!
