I would drop them for more vets, maybe a PBS.

I would also consider dropping a manticore for a couple of hydras.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4262088.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4262088.page GMT 1,500 Mech Guard

Fair point. I scrapped the CCS for a pysker and another meltavet squad. 3 troops is pretty vulnerable, but it's unlikely they'll be targetted over the big hitters.

I don't want a generic leafblower list.
With the six large blasts from the Valkyries you're looking at a huge number of armour saves from marines. Plus the Multi-lasers and HBs giving a further 3.2 wounds. Plus the instant-death Manticores, I think they'll be able to take out heavy infantry fine.

Looks good for the most part though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4264192.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4264192.page GMT 1,500 Mech Guard
I don't think you need those Valkyries as you have Manticores to do the same job. Vendettas would serve you better as dedicated anti tank and monstrous creature slayers. You will only need two, which you can invest the remaining points into another troop unit. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4264257.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/448612/4264257.page GMT 1,500 Mech Guard
